QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 03:07 AM) yep no need for Floyd to stay in with the way the pen is pitching and knowing we will not score again More like in a 3 run game with 2 on, you want to avoid the home run. IIRC, Santana hasn't homered from right side since opening day.

I don't care what happens here, but not bringing in Thornton is ridiculous.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:36 AM) 2nd time he's chased that slider that was never a strike. And Dunn actually forces a pitching change -- WOW! Looks like Konerko could have used the ASB to relax

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:22 AM) The ball just dies off Teahen's bat. He constantly hits balls that I think are going to get out and just die in the air. So funny, as I always said he would have been more fitted to hit in the 50s and 60s prior to weight lifting, PEDS, etc.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:20 AM) Mike Caruso... Royce Clayton.... Mark Teahen.... (working on my most hated Sox hall of shame list) How is Rios not #1? Teahen at least was kind enough to get injured last year.

Phil Hughes struggled big time tonight. Can't hurt Jackson/Dank trade value.

Gavin!

Yeah...don't trade that man! Way to go Quentin

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 02:02 AM) Is it me or has Alexei been skunks*** for the last two months? Batting average fading quickly.

Why do our hitters look so stunned that they're getting a 2 strike offspeed pitch?

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:56 AM) Can't DL Dunn. MLBPA will file a grievance causing the Sox will be fined a bazilionty dollars. Even with the knee issue he has? Anyways, he's looked good tonight so that's not really an issue. I think there's a much better chance Dunn turns it around than Rios

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:55 AM) Trade Quentin, trade Jackson, trade ohman, listen on Konerko, Buehrle, try to gt someone to take on AJs 2012 and the rest of Pierre this year. I think Pierre could be an easy guy to trade during waiver period. Some team would definitely take a chance on him as a bench player.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:54 AM) Fire Ozzie Trade Jackson Trade Quentin (get something for him now while we can and build for a future) Ozzie won't be fired during year. Keep him until offseason and see if you can get a mediocre prospect from Marlins for him. I'm so against trading Quentin unless you get a big time package for him.

Sweet play by Gavin!

Dumb 0-2 fastball down the plate. Guarantee our hitters would have seen an offspeed pitch.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 01:50 AM) It's not really simple, though. Dayan is only one man. And even he's slumping now. - Bench Rios, platoon De Aza and Lillbridge - DL Dunn, call up Viciedo to play DH - Fire Walker - Trade Danks

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 12:48 AM) elrockin is pretty much the lone 'optimist' left. Greg Hibbard says hi!

Bucket, you've fallen off the deep end haven't you

Gavin with really good stuff so far tonight. Be nice for him to go on one of his hot stretches for the next few months.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 23, 2011 -> 12:41 AM) If Cleveland had same scoring opportunties as Sox tonight it would be 3-0 at least. After seeing this lineup, I'm more confident than ever that Tigers are going to win this division easily.

2 for 35 for Rios with RISP and 2 outs now? Also has a nice .445 OPS on the road.

Haha, he is so terrible. That was a massive meatball. Here's an idea...bench him

Very nice swing by Dunn. Looks more balanced tonight.

Konerko's swing is pathetic now. Seems to be cutting it short far too often.

I missed it, but why was Pierre unable to tag up on Konerko's deep fly?
