QUOTE (Kalapse @ May 9, 2008 -> 08:59 PM) Eric Byrnes or Carlos Quentin, who ya got? Is that supposed to be an actual question?

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 9, 2008 -> 08:55 PM) Justin Upton making Ted Lilly look great today. Already with the hat trick and Marmol will give him the golden sombrero later. Eric Byrnes might be the most overrated player in baseball. I'm not sold on the DBacks offense, as they seem like they'll struggle against good righty pitching.

Haren cruising along and then gives up a 2 out rbi to Lilly. Lilly's pitching fantastic today also. DBacks need to get the lead again before Marmol comes in.

Excellent win, Uribe definitely player of the game!

QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ May 8, 2008 -> 09:14 PM) Ill take that hit from young for fantasy strictly fantasy purposes. Yep, that single's going to make a world of difference.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ May 8, 2008 -> 10:13 PM) He hasn't trusted the fastball all year, and i'm more concerned with his lack of trusting the fastball than I am the velocity of the fastball itself, if that makes sense. Yes, but when you're a pitcher, and you know you don't have the velocity you're accustomed to, it's easy to lose confidence.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ May 8, 2008 -> 10:12 PM) Thanks, I watched something else after MB was pulled Lucky you

Brendan Harris has had a real bad series against the Sox it seems.

Horrible hanger with 2 strikes by Jenks there. Delmon has struggled all series against fastballs...terrible pitch selection.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ May 8, 2008 -> 10:11 PM) I'm kind of torn on that too. The Sox have a crazy streak with no days off and heading to the West Coast of Doom, but they really need this game. As awful as they have looked the last week and a half, they can be one game out of first with this win. Massett hasn't worked in awhile Masset pitched last night and looked bad. Why would you put your worst reliever into a 4 run ball game?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 8, 2008 -> 09:09 PM) No reason to put Bobby in today...Who hasn't worked lately? When's the last time the lefties pitched? He'll be in, he was warming up to come in. You have to try and shut the door before Mauer and Morneau come up again.

QUOTE (Brian @ May 8, 2008 -> 09:09 PM) Guacamole dip or Sour Cream and Onion Chips. I laugh at the Ketchup and Fries flavored chips they have at work.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 8, 2008 -> 09:08 PM) Quentin was really late on that swing. Happens to him a lot...he seems to guess a lot on pitches, which isn't a terrible thing.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 8, 2008 -> 09:07 PM) Uribe is sneaking greenies, he has to be. Only if greenies = food

QUOTE (Soxpranos @ May 8, 2008 -> 09:05 PM) Good investigating, thats why Ozzie is on the bench and we are here typing. I've always thought splits matter much more for the hitter. Morneau especially, and Mauer also, are much better hitters against righty pitchers.

Great slide by Uribe, but why in the heck was Hall allowed to bat?

Wow, I don't know how no runs scored. I'll take it though!!

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ May 8, 2008 -> 09:45 PM) ANOTHER badly executed run down and Cuddyer makes 2nd. At least we got the 2nd out and didn't let a run score, but we haven't done a run down well all year. The contact play down 2 is not very smart baseball. When you have Crede and Toby doing a rundown, the lack of speed makes it hard to get a quick out.

Very nice play by Crede on the tough hop! He has to be careful with Kubel, as he crushes the high pitch.

Linebrink is missing his spot by a few feet.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 8, 2008 -> 08:42 PM) That's what happens when you go 10 days between outings from the bullpen. Which is why I was wondering why he didn't pitch last night instead of Logan.

Good catch by Toby after he started to stumble. Morneau had 5 meatballs to hit that at bat.

Everything is up in the zone.

If he struggles, I'm sure Hawk will blame it on lack of use lately instead of a bad situation to be in.

Leadoff walk...so far so good Ozzie!
