Yay! We avoid seeing Josh Hamilton hit a 480 foot homer off of him this weekend!

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 03:00 AM) I expect this team to continue it's struggles against Kansas City and Cleveland for the remainder of the year Carlos Santana is a freaking stud for Cleveland

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 02:53 AM) I'm going to predict that the first thing we'll hear is a sign and trade by Toronto sending Bosh somewhere. Where? I'm not sure. And I then predict that everyone will think James will be going to where Bosh was traded...but they will end up on different teams.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 03:51 AM) Why is anyone even bothering with the rumors anymore at this point? We're hearing something different about every 10 minutes. Yep, now it seems Johnson will stay in Atlanta and LeBron is almost definitely going to stay in Cleveland.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 03:50 AM) The check swing? Yeah... That, and I think the 1-2 pitch to him was a strike that was called all night.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 02:47 AM) Still doesn't mean we had to give up 4 runs. Did he create the hole where Guillen hit the ball out of the park? Didn't matter at the time, but ump screwed Pena on the 2-2 pitch to Guillen.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 02:47 AM) Still doesn't mean we had to give up 4 runs. Did he create the hole where Guillen the ball out of the park? I agree, it didn't cost us the game. It just made it more difficult to comeback all the way to tie/take the lead. The usual issues were present again for the Sox...underachieving starting pitching, poor clutch hitting, NO power from anyone besides 3/4/5

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 02:44 AM) Ok, I agree that Williams sucks. But he only pitched to one batter. Pena dropped the ball tonight. But it got the inning going for KC, as Kendall was able to hit a single through the hole created by holding on Pods.

This better be Randy Williams last game on the Sox roster. If the Sox don't have the intellect to release him, then f*** them, they deserve to lose.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 02:40 AM) Aj should have hit that a mile He has no power anymore

Good comeback in the 8th, but there's still huge issues with this team. We won't hear the end of Kotsay's fly ball out.

AJP gave himself no chance in that AB with that stupid stance. It's basically made him be a slap hitter to the opposite field.

That looked gone off the bat. It's a home run at the Cell.

You have to be kidding me that he caught that.

Hopefully Kotsay can flare one

QUOTE (noodle_53 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 02:34 AM) Maybe he's learned. Trust me, most Royals fans are thrilled with Yost and would love to keep him past this year. Well, good for him if he's learned that bunting is stupid in the AL.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 02:32 AM) How bad is Yost in comparison to Ozzie? Ned Yost is awful. He used to always bunt with the hitters in front of Prince and/or Braun in Milwaukee, which always resulted in the opposition being able to walk Prince and/or Braun. I got yelled at on here for saying I wanted to punch Yost in the face.

QUOTE (noodle_53 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 02:31 AM) You're welcome for that pointless bunt. You mean you don't like bunting with a righty reliever on the mound and a very fast runner on first with no outs?

Just looked at some of the averages and slugging of the Rangers lineup we're about to face: holy cow!

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 02:28 AM) Chris Getz just tried to kill Liney. About time Getz tried to help the Sox...and no, I don't want Linebrink to be killed.

Threets must have really been gassed from those 10 pitches in the 7th.

Getz trying to help the Sox out. This is pathetic right now.

True or false: Jim Parque would hit 96 mph on this gun?

Wait, why can't Threets stay in to face the lefties? Does Ozzie have KC by -1 1/2 tonight?

Oh Hawk, you're terrible. That ball was 20 feet from going out.
