QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 08:16 PM) That tells us all we need to know about Oz's confidence in Dunn. AJ fourth and Dunn seventh. Wow. My prediction is we'll see a lot of high fastballs and a lot of swings and misses tonight by Dunn. Good news is I predict he'll hit a home run tomorrow.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 07:11 PM) I really loved hearing Hawk say that, because it is exactly correct. I just wonder if Rios is the guy that needs to be replaced right now. I am still not convinced. I saw you list this above, and Pierre is clearly outplaying Rios right now. I know I'm the king of hyperbole, but Rios is doing nothing to help the Sox win games. Also, if Ozzie has to choose between Rios and Pierre, we know who he's going to select. I'd much rather see Lillibridge coming up instead of Rios any day of the week.

If you listen closely to Hawk and Stone, they're preparing the fans for Rios getting benched and Lillibridge being named a starter. Quite a few times yesterday, they were questioning Rios' effort to play the game the right way. Also, they kept talking about how when you're in a hole like the Sox are, you can't worry about hurting feelings and you play the guys who are playing your best.

Darn, that's like 5 double plays the opposition has been able to avoid over the last week.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 03:01 AM) Matt Thornton is a high paid player on this team. You use him. Case closed IMO No one cares about how much money someone makes more than you do.

Hopefully Sergio uses a lot of sliders in the 9th.

That a boy Sergio. As Hawk said, Juan kept us in this game.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 02:56 AM) You guys that never blame the player slay me. Matt is the goat there, not Ozzie. You're right, 6 straight hard hit balls off of the same person without being removed = great managing.

Crain must be hurt, as no other way to explain Bruney in here.

Buehrle with a real good job of pitching over the leadoff hit.

Awesome, Rios having one of those "worst games of career" type games.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 4, 2011 -> 02:55 AM) I wonder who will get the PTC right. Quentin is 1/1 with HR, 3 RBI, 2 BB. Morel is 3/3 with 2 great diving stops. That's tough. Rios had 4 hits on the cooler. Not sure why Juan took a prevent swing there with one strike.

If Hawk was still our GM, no doubt he'd trade Quentin for Brandon Inge and Randy Ruiz
