fathom

Ugh, Twins about to tie the game up.

BECKHAM! Where did this straight away power come from? Move him up Ozzie!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 02:35 AM) I think I would rather be watching Piranha 3D than listening to this debacle. Saw it today, fantastic! 3D glasses were annoying

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 02:34 AM) Watching Jones at the plate, I hope to hell the rumor that Manny has been claimed is true. He hasn't been claimed yet...all it takes is one team before us to claim him, and the Manny dream is gone. We won't know anything until the weekend.

Really Hawk, Wieters went to UNC-Ash? Um, no Orioles are just teeing off on Buehrle right now.

Pie just owns us...and jeez, Andruw sucks not only at the plate, but he's been awful in the field the last month.

Huge defensive play by Konerko there!

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 01:27 AM) can't wait till the yankees get here You mean you're not confident in Garcia facing them on Friday night?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 01:26 AM) Has there been a more listless offensive performance this season? I feel sorry for anyone who paid good money to go to this game. I wish Ozzie had the guts to play both of his catchers in a game, the same way Gardenhire does. Worst case scenario, you lose your DH if the starting catcher gets injured. Ozzie has got to find more at bats for Castro.

Hopefully Viciedo can face LHP and play 3B when rosters expand. Omar's almost a sub .600 OPS vs LHP.

QUOTE (WinorDie88 @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 01:24 AM) What HAS happened to Andruw Jones? Is it injuries? PEDs testing

4th called 3rd of the night.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 02:18 AM) isn't patterson hitting like .800 vs. Burls? .333 going into that at bat...Patterson can hit a fastball, especially one in the 80s.

Great sequence to Bell...HUGE batter in Roberts for the rest of this game.

Ugh, you can't walk Pie to lead off the inning. Wieters sucks from the right side...just a terrible pitch.

Tons of called 3rd strikes tonight. I hate watching Quentin face LHP, as it seems like the only thing he can do is foul off hittable pitches.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 02:03 AM) His legs have been bothering him quite a bit. Once those go, your back is sure to be next. Fatigue?

Rios shaking his wrist after that swing. Wouldn't shock me if he's really banged up, as he just cannot hit the ball with authority anymore.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 01:57 AM) Does anybody really know what this team can and can't afford anymore? I used to think DA was just a hater. But I still can't believe the Jackson trade. It's one thing about bringing in guys with set contracts. However, next time we get into a bidding war for a high-priced FA and win will be the first in a very long time (PK doesn't count)

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 01:57 AM) I like him as a player, but he's going to be overpaid. And interesting reclamation project may be none other than Curtis Granderson. I would love to have Granderson on the Sox

Not a chance in hell the Sox can afford Crawford next season. For as much money as he'll receive, I'm not too upset about that.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 12:40 AM) Beltran Hell of a prediction, only issue would be that there's no outfield spots open unless Quentin is traded or gets moved to DH. I would say that even if we don't get Manny now, it wouldn't shock me if he's our DH next year.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 12:38 AM) "Andruw Jones is in the best shape of his life." What past his prime scrub will we pick up next offseason? Jason Varitek

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 12:37 AM) And a terrible piece of hitting by Jones, as usual. Hawk went from loving him to HATING him. Melton has said similar things about him.

Yep, it makes a lot of sense to keep Beckham down in the order hitting after Mr. Mendoza Line.
