QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 09:53 PM) Our infield is just freaking horrible at times. Unless Nix is out there, it's horrible all the time.

OMG, what the hell is wrong with this infield?? Might be time to put Beckham at 2nd base and bench Getz.

And another Sox pitcher who can't pitch over an error. Ridiculous how often it's happening this year. Get Bradley out and keep the lead.

Let's hope Dye's playing shallow in right field with Theriot up.

Ugh, throwing error by Beckham after making an nice stop. This infield is just really bad.

That was funny...Pods doesn't have a career as a lawyer.

Hey, Alexei made a play to his right!

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 09:45 PM) If Carlos ever comes back, I'm totally comfortable with him in center too. The more I read, the more I think CQ is out for the year. He's still limping heavily.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 08:45 PM) hand was still on the bag! Nope, clearly out

Pods with a bad slide and gets called out on the steal attempt.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 08:43 PM) I love you Scott Podsednik. No one else I'd rather have up in that situation. It's funny (and I deserve it) how rangercal thought I was calling him out for his AB to end the game yesterday. He had a great pitch to hit, and he's been so good you expect him to do damage.

Cubs should really do a pitch out on the first or second pitch here.

2 out RBI by Pods! I love when he pulls the ball.

Nicely done by Wise to steal.

Wise draws the 2 out walk. I'm sure he'll be trying to steal.

Check swing grounder by Beckham. 2 quick outs

Getz gets severely jammed. He's just in a huge funk right now.

Time for Getz to be a spark for the bottom of this lineup again.

Ugh...shades of last time we saw Dempster where we couldn't blow the game open.

Thome takes a huge hanger for strike 3. Big chance here for PK.

I think the more important part is him showing he can hit with a wooden bat. That's a big question mark with him.

2 doubles in the 1st inning, Sox up 1-0!

Nice job by AJP of holding on to the Lee foul tip. Make Dempster get wild, and don't swing at the 3-2 pitch, as it will be a slider/splitter down.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 02:53 AM) He'll never get back to the 20's in home runs if he keeps trying to pull everything onto the concourse. It's sickening to watch major league hitters try and pull an outside breaking ball 400+ ft only to pop it up to the 3B. He was such a good hitter last year with a great approach at bat, but in all likely hood, because he hit so many home runs, he's trying to do nothing but hit homers this year. Give him the whole season. His numbers so far this year are around where he was at last year at this point.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 03:21 AM) If we blow it up, I see Pierzynski as the likely trade candidate with Castro as the guy staying to be the vet leadership with Flowers as the catcher. I think Dony Lucy has a chance to be a solid backup catcher in the future. Not much of a hitter, but from what I've heard, read and the little I've seen, he seems like a really smart player who's very good defensively, and JPN always says he's tough as nails. I can live with a weak hitting backup catcher if they play really good defense and don't play more than 1/5 of the games. If Flowers is our starting catcher, we should do our best to find a lefty hitting back-up catcher. Lucy is terrible..he makes Corky Miller look like a good hitter.
