Nice play by PK, but even a better play by Alexei.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 02:31 AM) I don't like Kendall's chances of pulling the ball here. Wow, in my face! Thornton just doesn't have the same life on his fastball as he had a month ago. Lots of good swings against him lately.

I don't like Kendall's chances of pulling the ball here.

Everyone in the league knows the Sox tendency to steal with 2 outs and a runner on. It's no coincidence that KC threw an outside fastball. I hate Ozzieball!

Wow, another rocket by Viciedo!!

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 02:21 AM) Have we already freaked out here because Flowers isn't playing tonight? I don't want to go back and read. Not that I've seen, but he also sits out a lot it seems

Very nice..gonna be interesting to see how the Sox handle this with Thornton/Putz.

Floyd still in line for the win..can we see a Pods backwards K for old times sake?

Finally got a curve down for the K! Last batter of the game here for Gavin.

PULL HIM! This is insane, if you have Thornton up, put him in to face Betemit, who's always been better against RHP.

There we go..time for a CQ homer

Mercy, KC taking some huge hacks against Floyd. Kalapse, if you're still in here, check out Arthur Rhodes tonight.

Needless to say, this is a tough inning for Gavin. It's crazy how many leads we blow at KC. Probably more over the last 5 years than any place besides Minnesota.

Rios definitely slumping...pulling off way too much.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 01:54 AM) Why is it that certain people appear from nowhere w hen the s*** hits the fan a bit? You know I'm consistently on no matter what, just had to move around a lot of furniture tonight to make room for the nursery.

Wow, that was terrible base running by Viciedo

Viciedo has a beautiful inside-out swing

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 02:42 AM) So three bad starts in a row from our staff .. wow. The Sox play so s***ty against the AL fixed

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 01:41 AM) This is not the same Gavin Floyd we've seen in the past three starts. Where are the Ks? Cause the NL truly sucks against offspeed pitches.

What an awful effort by Floyd this inning.

Gavin really has to learn how to pitch from the stretch. KC right back in this game.

Recent history at KC suggests Royals will make a run in this game. That Kotsay DP really kept the Royals in this game.

It would suck though to have to give up Hudson to get Dunn when we could have just had Thome for a million dollars instead. I'm all for upgrading the offense, but you have to do so without giving up Hudson/Viciedo/Flowers. Trade Danks 2, he sucks anyways.

I can't be the only one that feels like giving up Hudson and/or Flowers for 3 months of Dunn is way too high of a price? Will Dunn be a type A FA though and cheap enough to offer arbitration to?
