QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 09:54 PM) There's absolutely no way that's true. I heard it 3 or 4 times on Sportscenter. And going back in my mind, I can't remember a situation where the team that lost game 3 when the series was tied ever winning. I'll check basketballreference.

Well this series is over. The team that wins game 3 in the finals when it was 1-1 coming in has never lost.

I'm no longer an Adam Dunn fan and I curse the day we signed him.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 04:11 PM) Just think tomorrow how Mr. Done cost us our first round pick. Deepest draft from a pitching perspective in years.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 04:09 PM) lol @ Albert homering in extra innings to beat the Cubs 2 days in a row. Wow. Balta posted Albert's OPS after May 30th. Looks like he's about to blitz the NL again.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 04:07 PM) Same here I've chowed down a 6 pack already I'm serious. I don't remember him being called up. Jesus. Harrell, Marquez, last year it was Carlos Torres. Pathetic.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 03:57 PM) Sox pen is cannon fodder galore. I've been drinking a little. Where the f*** did Bruney come from?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 03:09 PM) Tigers are flat out the best team in the AL Central, in my opinion. Need to win 5 of our next 7 on this home stand. I'm confident the pitching can hold down Seattle and Oakland's offenses. Read on Motown sports that the Tigers plan to be very active at the deadline if they're in it (they obviously will be). And unlike us, they've got some attractive assets.

Well the Boston sweep will mean next to nothing. And Cleveland is playing like s***.

There's the real Ohman.

Pierre Rios Dunn AJ Teahen Pena Ohman That is wayyyyyyyyy too much suckage for one team.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 03:01 PM) Did you watch the Cubs or Mets the last few years? At least the Mets have had chronic injuries. I'd take the Cubs worst 7 over our worst 7 any day of the week. Three of our top 5 players are an elf, a 29 year-old who was DFA'ed twice in a week before we scooped him up and a guy that's only been pitching for about two years.

How can a team with a $125+ million dollar payroll be home to like 7 of the worst players in baseball?

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 02:57 PM) Peavy's injury history is the reason the Sox won't be able to trade one of the starters. Five seconds after we make a deal, he'll go on the DL and the call would have to go out to ... Not to mention Humber is not the second coming.

This will be the end of the Peavy era as far as I'm concerned.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 02:01 PM) With the talent available in this year's draft class combined with the deplorable state of the farm system, would anyone be surprised if the system's top prospect is whoever is drafted at 47? Remember, Dayan no longer has rookie eligibility and isn't considered a "prospect" in most cases. Pondering a White Sox top prospect list right now is rather depressing. This has been pretty much the case for 5-6 years, no? Whoever we draft first instantly becomes the organization's top prospect.

QUOTE (dielac @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 01:52 PM) For a guy that's been stealing bases his entire career, how does he just forget how to do it right? Has he really lost that much speed? Yes

What did Juan do now? Another CS? Did Ozzie send his ass?

QUOTE (GREEDY @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 11:17 AM) I'm not, he owns Penny. Ozzie sucks. Bozo the Clown could get Rios' sorry ass out right now. Ozzie deserves no venom for sitting that bum. I hope he's out a few days, actually.

Please don't let the Royals get Hultzen or Bauer.

That scrub gave up a HR to Yuniesky? Sad. I guess I missed that one.

Alex Rios' rankings among 25 other every day CFs with the required plate appearances in these categories: BA: last OBP: last SLG%: last OPS: last wOBA: last WAR: last Yes, Alex Rios has easily been the worst CF in the game of baseball. Your eyes do not deceive you. He's terrible. But he is making $12 million bucks.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 01:38 AM) lol, you naming off those teams is helping to make the point. The "stringing along" thing comes from the realization that these guys knew all along they were going to play on the same team since they all got tight playing for Team USA... once it was all put into context it felt like such a huge slap in the face as a fan. Bosh's cameras following him around and tweet-whoring asking people where he should go... Wade's "I'm gonna make a website called whatlittledotheyknow.com" tweet, and him faking like he was really thinking about going to Chicago because of his sons and coming back for the 2nd interview when he knew he never was, LeBron... doing, well, everything, although to be fair he handled having 6 interviews about as best as he could. When I realized they'd planned it all along I felt soooo stupid for missing what should've been obvious. Am I "over" it... yes, been over it, don't have time to be worried about it anymore. But it still doesn't mean I like it. Like I said, I get the hate. I was pissed as anybody last summer. I guess I just can't care anymore. But to quit the sport is excessive and extreme.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 09:39 PM) The good thing about Dunn is that if he just sucks this year and next, I can totally see him retiring. And walk away from $30 million? Why?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 09:37 PM) If nothing else, don't pretend that only a fool would disagree with you. Cabrera looked so bad earlier that I thought about walking Boesch to get to Cabrera. I never took you as a drinker.
