QUOTE (joejoedairy @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 03:16 AM) i agree he could benefit from a stint in charlotte but what do you think he is long term. is this just a blip on his way to stardom like we all expected after last year. or is he gonna end up being another disapointment? I'm not sure, more than anything else, his lack of power really worries me. The ball just isn't jumping off of his bat.

Might want to stop throwing them anything good on the first pitch.

Why can't it rain?

QUOTE (Pants Rowland @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 04:14 AM) His strikeout swing looks like he is bailing in an effort to get back to the dugout quickly. His swing is like 5 parts right now...I can't believe they continue to let him try this terrible approach. Everything is flailing every possible direction.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 04:13 AM) I think Gordon will have a strong second half Hopefully Flowers and Morel provide him a lot of protection down in AAA

Wow, they're actually booing him. What a flop this season.

Beckham continues to fail to do anything productive, and boy oh boy, is Alexei a terrible base runner.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 04:08 AM) Ubaldo Jimenez's ERA skyrockets to 1.60 after allowing 6 ER today. His WHIP isn't all that impressive given his ERA: 1.04 Strasburg's stuff makes Jimenez look like Josh Fogg

Holy cow Alexei! Hit-and-run please to avoid the 1-6-3

QUOTE (joejoedairy @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 04:08 AM) she had eyes?? Yes, they were the colored DD

Mercy, that girl in the White Castle commercial has nice....um, eyes

Awesome sequence!

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 03:04 AM) That I agree with. He's had 3 non-conventional plays so far in this game and failed to make any of them, you'd hope he'd come away with AT LEAST one. He just looks lazy out there tonight

Whew, nice location. Be careful with Heyward here, as he's looked very comfortable against Buehrle. Heck, I'd rather take my chances with Chipper.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 03:02 AM) There aren't a lot of 2B that make that play or the one that hit off the top of his glove. The one that hit off the top was an easy play that he just didn't jump in time. The last one was the most difficult, but he can feel free to make at least one tough play out of all these difficult chances.

Beckham with just a horrific defensive game so far. Be nice if Quentin ever made a plus defensive play.

Not looking good...his location has been awful today, with everything seemingly right down the plate. I hope they bunt here.

Buehrle has to keep the momentum going...pick off Escobar!

Dear Mark Kotsay, Stop running like you're mad at me. Sincerely, the ground

Hawk called that one perfectly....ugh, Kotsay is so damn slow!

Why didn't Kotsay try to go to third on that?

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 03:52 AM) Heh, I'm trying to be fair here. When I rip the s*** out of Ozzie in the 7th or 8th for a retarded decision it won't look as bad because I complimented him earlier. Well said...I'm more shocked at how infrequently Rios has K'd.

Oh CQ!

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 02:49 AM) God, I love this team right now. Great call by Ozzie to put Omar in motion. I'm not saying it wasn't a good call, but should it have even had been in question? Rios barely ever strikes out, and Vizquel is a good base runner.

Kalapse, good effort by Dontrelle
