Where's Lillibomb to put this game out of reach?

BTW, how was Kotsay's line drive not gone? It looked like a no doubter off the bat and in the air.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 04:39 AM) I said the other day that between Dye and CQ that I've been scarred for life as far as RF defense goes. Think about it...we didn't even complain when Jayson Nix was playing RF in a game.

5 years ago and with Oakland's nutritionist, that's gone for Kotsay.

Rangers with some class acts out of their bullpen. Who's their bullpen catcher, Jim Leyritz?

QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 04:37 AM) I don't think he is flat out terrible, but he just seems to get caught between on a lot of balls. Like, he gets to a ball and then overruns it, misjudges a bounce or bobbles it. ...maybe he is just terrible. And he does a terrible job at charging the ball and throwing quickly. That's similar to Dye, who never threw out runners even though he had a pretty good arm.

QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 04:33 AM) Man, Carlos ALWAYS looks crossed up in RF. "I'll tell you what Stone Pony, Carlos Quentin plays a fantastic right field. He made a catch that is as good as I've seen since Jim Rice in right field".

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 04:33 AM) I feel ya on TB, though not sure what the angle was far as "in the minors AND currently up" your putting. I think Washington and Baltimore (not counting Rendon yet) needs more love and Atlanta (my favorite) is still pimpin. Hell even Colorado has been amazing to watch with their young talent and a couple more on the rise soon as well. Carlos Gonzalez hits the most beautiful line drives in all of baseball.

NICE SERGIO!

The Sox defense tonight f***ing sucks!

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 05:30 AM) The one thing holding me off hope for Beckham is that Jay Bruce was just as brutal last year in his sophomore year, despite having the power. That's what worries me about Beckham...he has no power or carry on any of his fly balls. So far this year, he looks physically overmatched.

QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 05:30 AM) No way. Dude, it's already started. Looks of complaints about Beckham behind the scenes.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 05:28 AM) Anybody upset when Freddy comes out for the 7th or are you good with it? PULL HIM

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 05:26 AM) We seem like the only organization out there that just always blames the players, when at some point we need to realize it's the fault of the people who keep drafting, signing, and attempting to develop/maintain these players. yep, give it another year, and I wouldn't be shocked if KW is looking to deal Beckham. We'll then hear about his partying ways and unwillingness to follow Walker's direction.

ugh, awful at bats for Quentin. He's completely out of his groove.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 04:25 AM) Meh.. not quite the farm I would "drool" over, though they are very good. Young talent would be a better word

Very nice, tied it! Now let's get the Rios caught stealing out of the way, and hope our bullpen can shut them down.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 05:23 AM) I have no faith in our own development of young players. We could take some of those wonderful young players and specs and turn them into hot s*** in a year and a half with our organization. And then blame those players for thinking too much

Way to go Rios! I swear, teams need to shift for him. He probably has 30 hits in that same spot this season.

Stop letting Vizquel bat against hard throwers! That was pathetic, I'm sick of watching Vizquel again.

Vizquel is so old, human trafficking was legal when he was growing up.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 04:18 AM) Some part of me expects a botched squeeze right here. Maybe we'll bunt Pierre to 2nd? Kinda like in the NL, when pitcher will bunt in this situation.

HIDE THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN!

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 05:17 AM) I missed Beckham's at-bat. How did he get on? Soft liner over Andrus' head by 5 inches.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 05:17 AM) Exactly. We'd be a really good NL team. That's not a great strategy when you play 144 against the AL though. Ozzie would make an excellent NL manager, and I'm not even saying that to be mean.
