fathom

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 09:08 PM) He has huge straight-away and opposite-field power....some of the balls he hit come off his bat like a freaking superball. He can just destroy soft-tossing lefties.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 09:05 PM) I'm glad they didn't call him up earlier. He is 2 ABs in and has 1 less hit vs. LHP than Dunn has all year. I'd like to vote for this for the best post in the history of this site.

What a stud

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) Bell just took a life long infielder and turned him into a plus OFer. If that is bad at his job, I want more people who are bad at their jobs. How is Bell receiving credit for Lillbridge being good defensively in the outfield?

Really nice swing on the fastball by Beckham!

Not quite sure how Morel expects to hit with a swing like that.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 08:32 PM) You know Ozzie is furious right now. Dayan raking this last month would make him look even stupider. And that's damn near impossible. See what Jennings is doing for Tampa?

Haha, nicely done DV!

Gotta love Wimpy just ripping Rios' approach to shreds.

Amazing start by Danks!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 02:14 AM) I predict another 3 K performance against Pineda. Worst individual season ever. He's making Jaime Navarro and Paniagua look like Mark Buehrle.

Beckham with no hits in 7 of his last 9 starts...yuck

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 03:25 AM) 1 down, 2 to go. I'm rooting for 0 for rest of season for the .1% chance he retires.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 27, 2011 -> 11:52 PM) you really think he would leave 40+ million on the table? i doubt that I do...if he struggles again next season, I think he retires.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 12:36 AM) Tigers are 1.5 out from the 2-seed. It seemed like the Yankees and Red Sox were playing to face Verlander twice in a 5-game series, but it still could be the AL West winner against the AL East winner. I'm rooting for a Tigers/Brewers World Series. Both are great baseball towns with fans that get it. Brewers are playing amazing baseball. On a run like we were last year heading into ASB.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 27, 2011 -> 08:48 PM) Charlotte to Seattle can not have been an easy flight yesterday/today. Neither is a righty facing a righty

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 27, 2011 -> 03:40 PM) Is there a way I can dvr just Dayan's ab's? My prediction is he doesn't start until tomorrow

I'd prefer that Santos be allowed to pitch the full 9th inning, especially with lefties coming up. It's not like Sale's going to be our closer next year, so rather have Santos get the experience against tough lefties.

Seems like Crain has been up in the zone with everything for the last 2 months. At times, almost seems like he has a sore back. His numbers are good, but I recall him dominating the 2nd half last year with a slider in the dirt.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 27, 2011 -> 04:56 AM) Would an OF of Lilli-De Aza-Viciedo with Milledge as the 4th OF be the worst thing in the world for next year? Better make an upgrade at 3b next year then

Lillibridge is just awesome right now. Very short, compact swing.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 27, 2011 -> 03:34 AM) I like this Robinson kid. And who the hell is Mike Carp? Carp has a fantastic swing

Peavy has decent stuff tonight, and still has been very ineffective.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 27, 2011 -> 03:46 AM) Olivo kills us again Never thought I'd see the day that Olivo could hurt Peavy

Indians were ones who claimed Kubel. I do want to know who we claimed, as KW said it was someone who wouldn't impact this year's roster?
