Geez I don't watch alot of Cub games, but I don't think I've seen their defense this bad all season.

Our boy Mark Kotsay hitting 5th again!

Alexei.

Who are the consensus top 3 picks? Hall, Seguin and Fowler?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 15, 2010 -> 12:26 PM) I can live with the Ks if he can provide the OBP/power. Danks, however, looks like a best-case scenario for him would be making a run at Chicago in 2012. This year has really set him back. OBP is still higher (I believe by 100 points) over his batting average (not to mention STILL four points higher than Viciedo's OBP) I'm in complete agreement and he can take a walk. Hopefully he has a great month. I don't think some sox fans know what it will be like to actually have a OBP/OPS catcher (if all goes right) in your lineup.

I would think trading a guy like Sharp or Versteeg/Byfuglien could net you a good goalie if it came to that. I'm torn on these guys though. I love Byfuglien, and would hate to see him go (even the other guys not to mention might be bad as far as merchandise sales.. I see alot of Sharp/Byfuglien jerseys here) Maple Leafs and Blue Jackets love Sharp (though they're will be more teams like Vancouver, San Jose, etc..) Edmonton likes Versteeg and the Devils like Campbell. (which would be heaven if the Hawks can move him/waive his no trade, though he is a good player.. just overpaid) Gonna be quite the interesting summer that's for sure.

Might be a good year for the UCLA program if all holds right. Their softball team already won the NCAA woman's title. Seems ever since the legend passed away, their program has that inspiring edge.

Just gonna let this NL thing ride out here. If we can't take at least 2/3 from the Pirates, then noone can't take the sox seriously..... once again.

Teams talking up players from the Hawks. Sharp already getting a ton of interest and why not...

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jun 14, 2010 -> 08:50 PM) We get to see Portugal and Brazil tomorrow, I think we might see some goals rather than low scoring affairs. There are gonna be alot of woman waking up tomorrow to see this one... from whom I know at least.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 14, 2010 -> 05:28 PM) Here's a fun article about the Royals flawed approach to Alex Gordon. http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/06/...royals.html.php For the love of god.... I don't even care if its us anymore, will SOMEONE.. some organization that needs a 3B project please free this man?! It's been two years now since his injury prior, that he continues to be dicked around over there.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 14, 2010 -> 07:54 PM) Tyler hits HR 13 on the year. He has been putting on a clinic with the long ball the last 7 games.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jun 14, 2010 -> 04:42 PM) 6.5 for life! :headbang

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 14, 2010 -> 05:08 PM) Wow, I can't believe the mods let you get away with a racist comment like this about Milton Bradley.

McCutchen and Fowler are up there for me too, as well as Kershaw and I still ADORE watching King Felix.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 14, 2010 -> 03:56 PM) I disagree with you 100 percent Ditto, and I thought it was very obvious in the off-season.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jun 14, 2010 -> 04:06 PM) Here you go... :lolhitting Corpse Ball!

Just because of this, I will not say anything bad about Juan Pierre till the trade deadline. You have my word on this and it will be very hard for me as I hate him the second most on this board behind Kalapse.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 14, 2010 -> 12:22 AM) I hate Boston sports for the most part. This. It's f***ing sickening to think that POS Rondo might get 2 rings.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 10:44 PM) I've been against this idea all the way, but I'm getting close to the point I don't want to think about Gordon Beckham for a while. If we had ANYBODY halfway decent I might agree, but I dunno if I want to see Omar out there every day or Nix/Omar at 2B when Teahen comes back. But I understand where you all are coming from finally. It's simply depressing to watch him bat and make out after out. And that bunt try was horrid. He had to be on his own there, I'd think. I don't know about the unwritten rules of baseball, but him getting a bunt single might have been a horses*** move there. I'm not mad at Beckham for that, just sad at his overall horse-s***tiness. I can't believe it, but I agree with this as well. (not to mention agreeing with you Greg )

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 04:55 PM) And what do you know, the Rays have seemingly been head and shoulders above everybody else all season, and here they are tied with the Yankees for first place. That's going to be some kinda race. I don't think the Rays (nor Yankees) will complain at all if they win the Wild Card. I'm still not sold on Boston, but they have been getting their s*** together too.

Andruw Jones leading off... never thought I would ever see that in his career again. Thanks for the lineups flavum!

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 03:51 PM) Apparently, according to Strasburg, he pissed well. Must have been a hellova piss.
