QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:51 AM) Looks like the Uribe nice streak has come to an end offensively and defensively. I'm sure Uribe was playing Thomas extremely deep on the infield. That was a play that either Gavin or AJP has to make.

QUOTE (Karko's Throat Skin @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:51 AM) Bottom of the order blows tonight. There's been like 3 hard hit balls by the Sox tonight. We're fortunate to even be in this game.

These guys know they don't have to swing at every pitch, no matter where the location is, right?

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:47 AM) Do the Sox have advanced scouts? Yes, and they tell Hawk that Carlos Gomez is the greatest player ever!

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 03:45 AM) Great call. Cust is another of those s*** players that kills the Sox. This game is on the offense inabilty to do anything that has allowed the A's to stay in this game. I guess those high fly balls that went foul down the left field line didn't teach AJP anything. Oh well, let's see if our bullpen can step up.

Please get Floyd out of this game

Hey AJP...please review the scouting report that says Cust is a great fastball hitter, but can't touch offspeed pitches!

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:41 AM) Gavin's been throwing low fastballs to Cust all night that he's fouled off. He has to be careful this AB with him, as Cust has been just barely behind on that pitch. Exactly what I was talking about.

Well, this has a terrible vibe to it.

Gavin has to go and catch that ball.

Swisher's under .200 against LHP now

QUOTE (Elgin Slim @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 03:32 AM) Gavin needs to be on a very short leash in the 6th. First hit or walk, yank him. Carrasco better be warming up in the pen. I'd rather see Thornton, and hope he has it tonight and let him go 2 innings.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 03:28 AM) Frome June 1 to today he's at .291 .343 .369 .712. His 2 homers in the same game against Matt Cain is one of the more odd stat lines this season.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 03:27 AM) If you go to Baseball-Reference.com and click on the game logs, there's a function that allows you to do that by clicking on the start date and the end date over which you want to compile your data. show off

QUOTE (tommy @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:26 AM) I was just lookin at Cabrera and how he hangs around the .270 mark.. I was wondering how is he doing since May or June 1st till today. You can find his splits for each month...just subtract his April stats.

PK makes a play to his left!!

QUOTE (tommy @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:24 AM) Where can I find batting average stats from certain date on for any MLB pleyer? What do you want to know?

These hitters continue to chase that change-up that's way off the plate.

Dear Jeff Cox...please don't challenge the arm of Gonzalez in CF (just a word of warning)

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 03:19 AM) Safe to say we're either going to see a 2 run homer, a HBP, or a double play. or a walk

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 03:19 AM) Hawk and DJ clearly on top of their games tonight. Mark Ellis hits a routine fly ball to Dye, and Hawk's like "it's trouble!"

QUOTE (Karko's Throat Skin @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 03:19 AM) This is a SUPER boring game. Guarantee there is an error by Uribe today. Shades of Jose Valentin?

Safe to say we're either going to see a 2 run homer, a HBP, or a double play.

Gotta love the Old Timers Game going on in San Diego.
