QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 03:04 AM) The NewsRoom episode about Bin Laden was pretty damn cool Too bad they couldn't have just ended the show after that episode. Like you said, it was a fantastic episode though. Some of the acting on that show is just awful.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 28, 2012 -> 10:52 PM) Marcus Stroman, 1st rounder of the Blue Jays, suspended 50 games. Wow!

After tonight, Andy Dirks has a higher OPS than Paul Konerko. Strange, strange season

Good game, good effort.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 01:37 AM) Good question, I didn't think so, then again I dont really follow the Tigers. I'm pretty sure they have a better ERA out of the pen this year. Guys like Villareal and Downs just haven't allowed a lot of earned runs this year.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 01:34 AM) Is Verlander still in the game over at KC? Would be nice if Detroit absolutely taxed their mediocre bullpen before the Sox come to town. Isn't their bullpen better than the White Sox this year?

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 02:33 AM) Surprised we couldn't have picked up a better infielder for the bench (cough, 2b) at the deadline. +1000

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 02:32 AM) He's going to play his regulars as much as possible. If we are hoping Olmedo plays more, the Sox are in a lot of trouble. Agreed, but he's got to find a way to play Flowers against every LHP we face.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 01:28 AM) Come on, Robin - give Olmedo some starts He'll play him against LHP even though he's much better against RHP.

First game in a very long time where Sox just got their ass kicked. Need Axelrod to perform well tomorrow and for the offense to show some life.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 01:26 AM) Apparently Peavy has an eye infection and wouldn't have been able to pitch tomorrow anyway. Goodness

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 01:19 AM) Hudson/Thornton are more useless than Humber I disagree

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 29, 2012 -> 01:19 AM) how in the f*** did this guy throw a perfect game? Faced an awful hitting team in a huge ballpark with his best stuff. It wasn't a fluke, it was just something where everything went right.

7-6 now...awful

If the Sox claim someone off of waivers, will Humber get DFA'd?

I wonder if things go bad this week if Hawk will criticize Ventura/Cooper for reshuffling the rotation in order to ensure the main guys face Detroit. I don't think they should get blamed, but a week ago, he was very much against it.

Tigers having no problems with Mendoza...shocker. Also, not good to see Delmon getting hot.

Only thing that would make this game worse is if Myers pitches the 8th Why couldn't we have faced Hunter this series?

This is definitely the ultimate trap series. Pitching has gone into a big slump, and we're facing a team with a ton of confidence. Hopefully KC holds on to avoid the meltdown on here tonight. More Flowers, less AJ please

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 28, 2012 -> 02:51 AM) Sox 71-56 Bal 70-57 Oak 70-57 TB 70-57 Det 69-58 Sox have played well enough to have the opportunity to keep playing well. Who's going to have enough over the next 35 games? A's schedule down the stretch is brutal! White Sox really could use some help from the Blue Jays and Red Sox, but both of those teams are limping down the stretch.

Axelrod starting on Wednesday it sounds like on twitter...ugh, pitch well tomorrow Sale

13 straight one run wins for Baltimore

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 28, 2012 -> 03:24 AM) AJ's at bat was worse than Gordon's. Can they suspend AJ for 3 games so Flowers can play the next 3? Kidding...I think

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 28, 2012 -> 03:19 AM) If what you said is the case, that stupid walk to Reynolds may have lost us this game. The pitch he walked on was a strike to Alexei the inning before too. Most definitely, the umpire might have cost the Sox two runs with the non 3rd strike to McLouth and the Reynolds ball 4.
