Did Crain really just hit? Ha, NL

Got called into a meeting with Juan up, and come back to see he almost hit a slam! Way to go Juan

Let AJ swing away and pull the ball

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 10:12 PM) You guys worry about the cubs too much. they blow. This is more about heading into the weekend series with them than anything else.

Ugh, Cubs have a ton of momentum now

Way to go Sale!

Damn, the Cubs game keeps going.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 10:02 PM) Sale get in position dam Happened a lot to him lately.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 10:58 PM) BUT I HATE OZZIE! There was nothing he could do there. Rather have Juan in a contact situation than Morel against tough righty.

Please let Lindstrom make a mistake with a slider to Beckham.

Lindstrom was the reliever I wanted Sox to acquire this offseason. I've had a man crush on him since Futures Game.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 09:48 PM) Here is my lineup for the Cubs series (with roster moves): 1. Lilli CF 2. Alexei SS 3. Quentin Rf 4. Konerko 1B 5. Viciedo LF 6. AJP C 7. Beckham 2B 8 Morel 3B 9. Stupid Pitcher spot But it will be Pierre Morel Quentin Konerko AJP Ramirez Rios Beckham Pitcher

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 10:43 PM) Our reporters will be too busy falling over themselves to get quotes about how he hates wrigley and how the rats in the tunnels frighten him. This might be the post of the year.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 10:41 PM) I hope we average 10K per home game going forward. Maybe Jerry will finally force a change in management. No thanks, rather give next GM/Manager a chance to succeed with a solid payroll. We just have to wait another 3 months, and everything will work out. I'm very confident of that.

Good news is Beckham's had a good game. In the long run, it would be great for him to earn the #2 spot again cause I can't stand watching Morel and/or Omar there.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 09:36 PM) FIRE THIS IDIOT. HE CLEARLY IS TRYING TO GET FIRED. I truly have to believe that. He's like a guy who couldn't care less with how he treats his girlfriend since he knows there's another girl who he can get with if/when they break up.

Rios OPS is around .445 on the road. He's 2-27 with RSIP and 2 outs. Sounds like a great clean-up hitter.

Two with an OPS above .635

Hell of a series Rios! You keep doing so much to help us win. Batting 4th makes a ton of sense.

Well, this should be Konerko hitting here.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 09:20 PM) At least the Cubs pen is toast for tomorrow's game. Be nice if Cubs lose today so they're not coming off momentum of two straight walkoff wins

Way to go Beckham!

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 10:09 PM) So lets see. We've been completely dominated by Livan Hernandez, Aaron Cook, Doug Davis, and Brad Penny this year. Anyone else I'm missing? Chris Tillman was the worst one

Alexei needs to start using whole field again. He's way too pull-happy now.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 30, 2011 -> 08:52 PM) I can think of switching league/switching team acquisitions that suddenly made guys slump. Happens in NYC all the time it seems. Who's the last guy to slump as bad as Dunn has for half a season?
