Critic, you don't have to worry about Sin Careless for a while

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jul 18, 2011 -> 09:31 PM) Totally. Their inflexibility in making ANY roster changes to help the offense is mind-boggling. Honestly, the more realistic lineup decision they can make right now is sending down Morel and calling up De Aza. It gives you more flexibility with pinch running and allows you to bench Rios once a week without having to make Lillibridge face RHP.

For those at the event, was I the only one who thought people were going to act very stupid if CM Punk lost? I'm not talking about full-scale riots....but it was definitely an intense atmosphere.

Don't forget that Morel in a platoon role is even more ridiculous since he's terrible against LHP.

Yep, it's definitely time to send Morel down. Not sure if it's true, but I heard that Morel has 4 hits all season at the Cell to the left side of the field.

I was amazed at the heat for Mysterio last night.

Yes, the lines were insane last night for merchandise.

This is one of those games that if we don't win, it really leaves the taste in your mouth that it's not our year and hopefully we'll become sellers in 10 days. Buehrle's been our most consistent starter while Davies is simply terrible.

QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ Jul 18, 2011 -> 05:28 AM) To the guys who went to Allstate, how big was the entrance pop and 3 count pop for Punk? 3 count pop was insane. Entrance pop was very strong, but the booing for Cena was even louder.

Did it seem like Punk messed up a ton of moves?

So crowd came across good on TV?

Amazing experience!

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 17, 2011 -> 07:56 PM) That's one or 2 plays in a 9 inning game. Sox hitters choked. Lexi choked. Sox are flawed. Wow

Leyland won Detroit this game by putting runners in motion with Cabrera up and a full count. Really bad job by Ozzie of not taking advantage of the Valverde/VMart battery. Time to go win 2 of 3 against KC.

Ozzie really sucked today. Bad bad loss

We are missing some meatballs.

This is excruciating

Great AB

Stop making excuses Greg. We should have put this away early

Started watching in the third. I jinxed this game

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 17, 2011 -> 08:13 PM) I was surprised Cooper didn't come out, esp. after the 4 pitch Ordonez walk. Just seems he loses it so fast...Leyland might have won this game by putting the runners in motion.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 17, 2011 -> 08:10 PM) f***ing ozzie. Humber's mechanics were off in that inning. You could see he was falling off pretty hard to his left, and every pitch was sailing to his left.

Konerko has been taking a lot of defensive swings it seems like this weekend.

Just looked up VMart's splits vs LHP/RHP. Not very happy right now. I don't get that he was too good of a clutch hitter to pitch to him in that game Cabrera homered off of Crain in the 9th, but not good enough to pitch around with an open base.

Whenever Ozzie goes to the mound and keeps the starter in, it never works out
