Bad luck that didn't bounce farther away.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:57 AM) I dont think there's anything special going on in this game. The offense sucks balls, but its been sucking those balls for weeks now. We have to be able to score more than 3 runs in a game....we're a professional ball club. +1

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:56 AM) Jake is pitching with the initials of AK on his glove and cap, for Padres bullpen pitching coach that passed away, maybe he's not all there mentally today but that was brutal. Still kept us in the game for 6 innings, this should be it for him. His stuff has been real crisp, just missed his location on a few pitches. He actually had better stuff tonight than he had in some of his better outings.

Double play saved him about another 10 pitches

Wow, Peavy with a defensive game that would make Clayton Richard and Julian Tavarez blush. PULL HIM!

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:52 AM) why do you go 3-2 to Drew Butera? He's at 105 pitches and counting

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:52 AM) Dunn is 16 AB's away from the Mendoza Line. He'll get a few hits the next two games against awful RHP

Hopefully Ventura benches Dunn against CC later this week

Has Hawk complained about any umpire since the Tampa fiasco?

QUOTE (daggins @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:28 AM) Welp, not scoring any runs tonight unless someone hits one out. Shows you just how awful Randy Wolf was on Saturday

Looked safe on the DVR replay, but De Aza slowed down on his last step.

Absolutely terrible call at first it appears

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 02:23 AM) I'll be honest. I'd fully support trading Dunn. I'd rather spend his money on something else. If you do that, you could keep PK in a Sox jersey for a handful of years by putting him at DH.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:19 AM) A.J. is leaving, Konerko is getting old. We gotta get some young bucks for the future and we have to do it soon Says?

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:15 AM) well, I know a lot more about the NBA than I do about baseball. I'm surprised people still want to keep Dunn though. He's just not a good hitter. a DH that can't hit. If he puts up good stats and we can sell high on him, why not do it? It's not like our championship window is so wide any way. At some point we're gonna have to rebuild. The exact reason why you jump at the chance to try and make the playoffs this year.

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:14 AM) AJ has been striking out so much more now in important situations 1 RBI in his last 11 games, and that was on a homer. It's been 12 games for him since he had an RBI on a non-homer.

Should have been Flowers tonight against the lefty

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 02:12 AM) The Done line, as in, if you strike out this much, but aren't named Adam Dunn, you are Done. You have to be pretty good to get enough at bats to strike out as much as Dunn does.

I'd love to see Rios moved into the 3rd spot, with Youkilis batting 6th and Viciedo 7th (Dunn batting 5th). That would prevent the opposing manager from bringing in lefties to face the 1/2/3.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 02:08 AM) Dunn has zero chance until they bring in a reliever tonight. That average is on the way to the Mendoza Line.

Dunn is 2 for last 30 with 16 strikeouts.

Nicely done by Peavy

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:59 AM) In his 3 losses, his ERA is 1.08. Yep, he's been sensational

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:58 AM) I might need to go work out because I'm getting angry! It happens, we face two awful pitchers the next two games. I'd be much more angry if we lose those games.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 26, 2012 -> 01:57 AM) Absolutely. He has regressed very rapidly over there. It seems ever since he went into a slump due to the wrist issues, his defense has been very mediocre at first base.
