Holy cow, Danks is falling so far off the mound to his right. His velocity is WAY down tonight.

Looks like Wieters was out at first. Alexei made a bad throw to Getz, and that made it harder for him to turn two. Danks just has nothing out there today, as it's now tied.

Haha, Alexei showing absolutely no range to his right. That's a play that 95 pct of shortstops make and get the force. Danks in trouble again.

Danks has hung just about every breaking pitch he's thrown.

Thome can't catch up to anything above his knees now. Hopefully he regains a little bat speed, as it's been diminished since the start of interleague.

It's so damn nice to have players that can score from 1st on a double. This pitcher is really bad, be nice to break the game open.

Nice job by Alexei on the sac fly. Adam Jones is so graceful out there in CF.

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Jul 18, 2009 -> 01:49 AM) Danks looks like s***. Nothing he is throwing looks sharp. Lots of just misses so far by Baltimore. Danks doesn't have that power change-up which makes him so effective yet.

I just really hope that KW waits until after next weekend before making any big trades. I'd hate to see a blockbuster trade if we slump out of the break and we're 6 or 7 games out.

Danks just totally lost his focus in that AB, and Markakis hit a very cheap homer. Roberts dominates us more than any other leadoff hitter. Beckham or the coaching staff fell asleep with Roberts up to bat.

No WTP there. Konerko looked awesome that AB, as he was swinging as free and easy as I've seen in a long time.

Warning track power has carried over from before the break, I see.

QUOTE (beck72 @ Jul 18, 2009 -> 12:19 AM) I agree on that wholeheartedly. Webb would likely be a target in the offseason. Also, I'd have to think another name or two could be available in the offseason that's not on the radar now. Pitchers are overpriced in terms of talent it would take to acquire them right now. It's very possible Webb is a FA this offseason. There's also reports his injury is much more serious than the organization is stating it is.

Major League and Superbad

Excellent!

My favorite moment of the game was McCarver saying Youkilis might be the most valuable player in baseball due to his production as related to his relatively low salary (6 million). Meanwhile, the next guy up makes a little over league minimum and has better numbers this year while playing numerous positions (Zobrist).

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Jul 15, 2009 -> 03:13 AM) I'm thinking Halladay will end up in Philly....I am just hoping Detroit doesn't go out of their way to try and get him. They don't have the prospects to get him. I really think Philadelphia is where he'll end up.

QUOTE (Lemon_44 @ Jul 15, 2009 -> 04:05 AM) i think a deal of Richard, Poreda, Fields, and another prospect would get Halladay. That's 3 young guys who are already at MLB level and an upcoming propsect. That's rumored to be more than what they are looking for. You don't think Toronto could get more than that? I can't wait for Halladay to get traded.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 15, 2009 -> 02:55 AM) Who better to give you innings if it goes to extras? LUIS VIZCAINO

So after all the hype, Wakefield's not going to pitch, is he?

It's fun to be able to actually cheer for Granderson!

Harold Reynolds is pretty awesome as a "sideline reporter".

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 14, 2009 -> 09:40 PM) Where has this occurred? 24 days for Stallworth

Not sure it's been reported on here, but Buehrle is going to be the 2nd pitcher for the AL. Also, Hanley Ramirez has some gigantic arms.
