I'm sorry, but academics has nothing to do with these decisions

Nice momentum heading into Wrigley.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 08:08 PM) He looked like he was overthrowing. Nothing that isn't easily fixable. I've actually noticed that almost all the damage against him has been on his fastball lately (outside of a Kinsler double). When you throw as hard as you do, and people start catching up to your fastball...you'll start trying to throw it even harder. Santos needs to remember that as of right now, his best pitch is his slider. It's ironic that his 95 mph fastball is his set-up pitch.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 08:06 PM) Sergio is just impressive as all hell. He was going to eventually hit a rough patch this season and he's doing a hell of a job to get through it right now. I was surprised to see his WHIP as high as it is. I love the experience he gets from that inning.

SERGIO!

I'd seriously consider walking Cabrera here if you had trust in Thornton.

QUOTE (girlslikebaseballtoo#26 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 07:30 PM) NEVER gonna happen!! He was told it wasn't a demotion ..they just need him to handle the new pitchers and they want him closer to Kannapolis and W-S. ..Luis Sierra told me the same thing happened to him last season and he was only in Bristol for a week. And my ex girlfriend said it wasn't about me, it was about her!

I like the swear filter...creates a lot more constructive post than just seeing "f***" whenever something bad happens.

Haha, oh boy

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 08:25 PM) BECKHAM WITH ANOTHER EXTRA BASE HIT! awesome!

QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 08:24 PM) I don't see anything wrong with what he said either Reason it's frustrating to me is he interjected himself into being someone who could be dealt a few days ago when they didn't even ask him specifically about being traded. It's why I don't get mad at AJP for talking about trades right now.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 07:17 PM) Because you read more than the headline. Oh come on, after Cowley's initial tweet, it sounded much worse than what Peavy actually said.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 07:00 PM) Detroit sucks too. Minny is going to run away with this division They aren't already? It's going to be interesting watching AL teams battle to win the Wild Card, while the Twins win the division by 8-10 games.

QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 06:55 PM) Ide almost rather just trade him now to get out of that contract.. Oh hell yes

Shut up Jake! We're having to rebuild cause you've been the biggest underachiever on a group of underachievers!

Both CQ and Gordon flew out to deep center? Anyone watching let me know if they actually hit it well?

How far was Omar's home run? Omar and Lillibridge must have finally received the HGH I sent them.

I'm just thankful knowing that whatever happens with the conference realignment, Paul Hewitt will be able to adjust to the conference and continue to keep Georgia Tech a national powerhouse that always overachieves.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 05:47 PM) There was also a specific Issue of Flowers in May trying to do more to overhaul his swing to cut down on the strikeouts. It left him uncomfortable. In June he's gone back to what he's been doing and it's suddenly working again. Have we confirmed that he's actually changed his swing back to what it was?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 05:49 PM) Once you get past the first couple rounds its all so much a question of system development though... I think people are silly for ranking NFL drafts before a couple years are up. Baseball ones? My God. I couldn't agree more with you.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jun 10, 2010 -> 05:16 PM) Fathom, You were the first person I really saw mention GT, but now it seems to be gaining traction. New rumors floating around are the Big 10 wanting Maryland, Syracuse, Rutgers, GT and ND to fill the last 5 spots. Every indication is that Missouri is the Big 10's last resort. GT was approached two months ago by the B10 and SEC. The Atlanta market is something the B10 really wants to add to the conference. GT is also a great fit with the B10 with it's engineering curriculum. With that said, no way I see GT picking B10 over SEC. Maryland is the heavy, heavy favorite.

Maryland would seem like the heavy favorite, as GT would rather go to the SEC. It's crazy how much television markets are playing a role in this.

If guys like Flowers, Hudson, and Viciedo tank as prospects, there's really not much hope for this team over the next 5-7 years. We have to find some cheap, productive players somehwere.
