Nice job by Jones and Ventura there

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 17, 2012 -> 10:51 PM) I get that Pujols does his usual stare at the homerun and pose thing, but that's only ok when you are hitting like the best player in baseball. When you are sucking it up, you don't need to pose for a ball that goes 5 feet over the wall. But yet, it makes it so much funnier when it gets caught at the warning track. Did he just pass Moyer as the oldest player to ever get an RBI in a game?

Ohman ready to come in yet? In all honesty, probably Nate Jones time.

Great job by Sale avoiding the big inning!

That's the first time Wells has walked in consecutive games since early June of last year.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ May 17, 2012 -> 09:16 PM) You sure you want to pay a career reliever $20M in '15? I didn't say either was a good contract

14 base runners in 4 innings...nice

Trumbo's been very impressive this year. Swing looks more compact than it was last year.

Great job by Dunn of not letting Wilson off the hook.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 17, 2012 -> 08:36 PM) If he can be fixed, it's gotta look bad for the GM to trade him and have him be fixed. It happens...as of now, it doesn't look like he's going to be fixed in a Sox jersey. They've given him every chance to succeed, and he hasn't yet. Hopefully this is a mute point come the end of the year and he's a fixture in the Sox organization.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 17, 2012 -> 08:35 PM) I wonder if a Pedro Alvarez for Beckham type deal could happen. I've absolutely been thinking that, and I'd be all for it. Only issue is Pirates have Walker at 2nd base.

If PK was player-manager, would he fine himself?

Sox @ Angels 5/17 game thread
QUOTE (Jake @ May 17, 2012 -> 09:32 PM) I don't know why they'd want him. I'm sure a lot of teams think they can fix him. Hopefully KW will consider all options and possibly trade him for another talented player who might need a change of scenery (ie: a greater version of the Stewart for Colvin trade).

Sox @ Angels 5/17 game thread
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 17, 2012 -> 08:25 PM) Beckham is clearly looking to go to the right side now on nearly every pitch. That's resulting in opposing pitchers throwing inside on him...Gordon has to learn how to turn on those pitches again. It's one thing to look up the middle or just to make solid contact, but limiting yourself to 1/3rd of the field (where it's very hard for you to drive the ball out), not such a good strategy. Gordon out-thinking himself again. Apparently, Mike Scioscia inquired about Beckham (with Ed Farmer) and wanted to know the backstory about his personality and make-up...said the Angels would be interested in acquiring him. Probably to play 3b then, as they have Kendrick at 2nd. Knowing KW, he'll go after Callapso just cause he's a Sox killer.

QUOTE (kapzk @ May 17, 2012 -> 08:24 PM) Dunn slumping 4-40 with 23 K against LHP. He can't be batting 3rd vs LHP, especially if you have the equally poor against LHP in De Aza batting 1st.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 17, 2012 -> 07:59 PM) The M's just took the lead again in extras. And the Tigers lost to the Twins. Morneau's back again. Survived a bunch of solo homers against them. King Jinx strikes again :)

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 17, 2012 -> 09:05 PM) Who goes for the Cubs on Sunday? It's Samardzija and then Dempster the next 2 days, and if we have to choose we may as well do the platoon thing. Maholm
