QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ May 6, 2009 -> 06:48 PM) That was an amazing episode. That was a rare series finale that actually was really well done. I agree it was well done. A great way to end the series.

Now I understand it, his mom is f'ed up. That's why she named her kid "Joba".

QUOTE (smalls2598 @ May 5, 2009 -> 06:02 AM) Yea, that was scary. Luckily, Rotoworld is reporting he's doing ok: "X-rays and a CT scan on Rick Ankiel's head revealed no fractures as a result of Monday's collision with the wall in center field. "He was never knocked out," GM John Mozeliak said. "He never lost consciousness. My understanding was that he had some discomfort in the face area, obviously, from hitting the wall. But for the most part right now, we're encouraged based on Dr. Paletta's first [evaluation], just getting to see him on the field." No word yet on whether Ankiel will land on the DL. Colby Rasmus figures to start in center field for at least the next few days. May. 5 - 1:59 am et" That's great news. I saw that collision and it was horrible.

QUOTE (earthshiner @ May 4, 2009 -> 08:45 PM) knowing this organization, we'll see Garcia here by the end of the week. ^^^^^^^^^

I like our chances tonight. Because.... -we have seen Greinke before -He's not a no-name pitcher -He's not making his major league debut -His ERA is not over 7 -He is due for a loss. The chances are in our favor.

Greg Walker Fired.

Pods has more hits in 1 game than Owens struggled to get all year.

Jerry Owens. Wait. What?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 29, 2009 -> 03:36 PM) Does someone have a list of shows that are cancelled or renewed? Or is something like that even out yet? I think some of them will be released next week.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 29, 2009 -> 02:29 PM) Why the f*** would we run with 2 outs when Lillibridge is batting? Do we really want him leading off next inning? It's not like he would've gotten a hit anyway. Might as well get the 3rd out on the bases.

I've got tickets for Game 2. I should be there for the tail end of Game 1. Plus, as a bonus, Ginger Zee will be there!!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 27, 2009 -> 12:49 AM) Anybody notice that the Red Sox are emphatically debunking the myth that you can't have a contending ML team while maintaining a productive farm system at the same time? Since 2005, their farm has produced Papelbon, Ramirez (who they turned into Beckett), Lester, Buchholz, Pedroia, Youkilis, Ellsbury, Delcarmen and Lowrie. Lowrie goes down a couple weeks ago and they insert Nick Green, who at his age doesn't qualify as a true prospect, but is putting up a line so far of .302/.375/.488/.863. Daisuke Matsuzaka, who's overrated as hell, but still a big part of their rotation, goes down and all they do is insert Justin Masterson, who in 6 games (the last two as a starter) is sporting a 2.70 ERA. They just called up Michael Bowden (who's ranked #83 on BA's top 100 prospects list) for one day, I guess. And he looked f***in' awesome in two innings against NY last night. It won't be long before he's back up to stay. I don't even know who the hell Hunter Jones is. But he looked good as well. They've got Lars Anderson, who's ranked the 17th best prospect by BA, waiting in the wings. Daniel Bard, who's ranked the 98th best prospect by BA, is putting up filthy numbers at AAA right now. That just gives them more quality depth pitching wise. Say what you will about the Red Sox and their fans (who I despise), but that organization has got it's s*** together. They've blown right by the Yankees as the premier franchise in baseball. That has to be the coolest name around. It sounds like a movie character.

8- Ramirez 9- Owens 1- Lillibridge right now that has to be the worst 3 in baseball.

I never understood why the Cub "fans" boo Dusty....he got them farther in the playoffs than Lou ever has or will. When he came on board, he was their savior. Would they boo Don Zimmer? What about Jim Frey?

Well, if Coop couldn't fix him no one can. /green. So long. Glad that Egbert finally gets a shot.

I can't believe he got Quentin to smile! He's another article on mlb.com mlb.com

I got free tickets to see Death Cab for Cutie at the WTTW Soundstage taping last Thursday. The acoustics in that room are amazing. You're also about 20 feet from the band. It was a great show.

Does this have anything to do with Madonna?

Politics aside, if I had a chance to tour the White House I would do it. I'm sure most players on the team feel that way.

Nice to see Alexei getting the day off. Let's take the series.

My Cub "fan" friends are calling him Fonzie. These are the same ones who were booing him mercilessly last year.

That Joba impersonator story was kinda funny.

I should be able to watch this one. Haven't been able to see a live game in like a week.

I have to believe there will be a new person in the bullpen when the Tampa series starts. Whether without Richard or MacDougal. Just a hunch.
