QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:57 AM) Yeah, it's not like he strikes out a ton...but he needs to lay off the stuff outside. I know he has a good stroke to the opposite field, but I'd like to see him not swing at pitcher's pitches early in the count. He's had a lot of fly outs to right field, and he's a good enough hitter to control the at bat more.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:52 AM) Perfect pitcher for Beckham to slice a ball to RF against. I love that man

Perfect pitcher for Beckham to slice a ball to RF against.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:50 AM) Jeesh...if someone can ever get through to Dayan on looking at some pitches.... Something that has impressed the hell out of me is his pitch recognition. He chases fewer bad pitches than just about anyone on the team.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:49 AM) I cant even express how happy I am that the Sox didnt trade Viciedo today. Still a long time to go

Viciedo should not be traded under any circumstance.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:37 AM) My guess to a wow/headscratcher move that KW pulls out of his hat: Chone Figgins Wouldnt cost anything, one of the most versatile players in baseball, if you can sweeten the deal and get the M's to pick up some of that contract... I know he's having a down year but maybe Kenny thinks he can get solid production from him with a change of scenery Seattle GM likes Morel a lot according to Stoney I'd rather have Mark Kotsay

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:43 AM) Well ain't this some s***. Nice to see Sox call up a guy from minors (not including Hudson) that didn't just throw 88 mph fastballs.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:43 AM) I think Kenny liked Wells, but no way could the Sox add him without getting serious money. Yeah, that contract is pretty awful

Way to go Harrell! Started throwing strikes, and the hitters really weren't taking good swings against him.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:39 AM) Yeah, but he would be a good buy-low type of guy. Dunno if the Blue Jays would sell him right now though. I agree, it would be a great guy to buy low on for the Sox.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:38 AM) Rosenthal tweets that the Blue Jays may make multiple trades, maybe Fathom is right and we'll see Lind. I think it's more likely Frasor and Gregg are dealt, and the Giants might be able to get Bautista.

Jeez, Twins just don't stop hitting. Even A. Casilla hit a bomb

I actually think Harrell has a future as a righty reliever, as he seems to fare much better against righty hitters.

QUOTE (wsgdf_2 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:30 AM) Harrell's start tonight might end up better than Oswalt's first start as a Phillie: 6 IP 4 ER Baseball is awesome. Oswalt got burned by one of the worst defensive plays you'll ever see. Ruiz literally threw to third base on a bunt attempt when there was no Phillies player within 30 feet.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:27 AM) Jesus. They have a 35 man roster exemption? They've had all sorts of strange players on their roster this year...Miranda, Curtis, etc.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:23 AM) We b**** about our offense a lot, but it has been pretty awesome this month. I absolutely love our 7-8-9 when it's Viciedo, someone, and Beckham

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:23 AM) I'd love to see Beckham try to bunt for a hit here. Obviously sarcasm...Beckham is such a joy to watch at the plate.

Best job all season of Andruw adjusting his swing.

Good grief, Viciedo destroys lefties. However, got real lucky they didn't get him out at 2nd.

Dunn got pulled from Nats game, but the game is out of hand

That's why AJ's the starter! ha

Haha, stop appealing CQ!

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:15 AM) Austin Kearns wouldn't be a Wow kind of player... more like an ewww I predict Kearns is going to the Braves.
