Who was the former Bears player to announce the pick? On ESPN's coverage, I believe Bears first pick was the only player who wasn't shown in the green room or via satellite, and then we didn't see the 2nd pick announced.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 11:52 PM) I wnated Austin but when Austin went we had to get our DT and Paea has that upside and talent and fills a major need. Happy with our first two picks. Definitely, pretty obvious they had Austin/Paea ranked closely and were determined to get one of them.

Stephen Paea

Holy cow, playing Lillibridge against a RHP batting 7th?

Can't stand Will Ferrell's character on The Office.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 03:24 AM) Dan Bernstein could not be more excited! Is that who he wanted them to take? Oh, and if the Lions find a way to get Bowers, that would be comical.

Welcome to the Jewish Hammer!

Cleveland isn't going to trade Sizemore if they're in contention.

wouldn't this be a good time to get Thornton an inning?

Harry, why do you say Sizemore will get traded?

Loved how Carlos went to right against a LHP. Know it doesn't mean anything for this game, but hopefully that 3 run inning puts some life into the offense.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 01:18 AM) The 2007 team was more exciting to watch. Not often you see a team with 3 players that need to get benched (Rios, Beckham, Morel). That goes along with Pierre and Dunn being non contributors this year also. I've really never seen an offense struggle this badly.

Another BLAST by Rios. He's simply awful. I wonder if we get shut out during batting practice?

Pretty sure we'll get King Felix in Seattle. We've caught no breaks at all with regards to pitchers we've faced.

That better be it for Pena in a Sox jersey. Oh Kenny, what the f*** happened to you the last 3 years?

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 01:56 AM) Did they just intentionally walk someone down 6-0? They have scored 8 runs in the last six games who is making these decisions? This whole team/coaching staff is patetic

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 12:54 AM) The offense did nothing to win either of these games so while winning two games is nice the really is nothing good happening with this team right now. Santos as a closer is exciting to me. That's about the only thing interesting with this team right now. I predict Dunn to hit 4 homers in this upcoming homestand.

J4L might punch a dog over the summer of 2009.

Let Pena give up 10 runs here and hopefully be sent off to the Newark Bears.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 01:45 AM) was that available? Who knows, but the Yanks were down on Granderson after last year.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 01:44 AM) who would've gladly taken a split with the yankees coming into this series? anyone? ME Good point ginger, but I would have much rather lost games 15-12 instead of 3-1.

So yeah, having Jackson throw 120 pitches on April 7th really looks to be an awful move by Ozzie. He's given up 19 runs in 17.2 innings since, and his stuff isn't close to what he had before that.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 01:42 AM) Return 10-16. Change tomorrow Fathom? Insights? Nope, heard nothing. Lillibridge might have saved some jobs in the long run. I think they'll get this homestand to fight for their jobs, but that's my opinion.

Ugh, every day, I get so mad we didn't trade Rios for Granderson this offseason. Be nice to have a charismatic player on our team also.

QUOTE (Paint it Black @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 01:39 AM) Sizemore used to be my favorite player to watch, but he just can't stay healthy. He really hasn't been good since 2007. Hafer is alwaysssss injured. He's been a shell of his former self since 2005/2006. Hard to say Sizemore can't stay healthy after he had the major surgery. If we rip on their players for being hurt, then how about Quentin and Peavy for us?
