No 9 run 4th innings Count! How's the weather?

Time for Crede to lay the hammer down!

QUOTE (TheOcho @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 08:56 PM) When OC is hot, he is one of the most exciting players I've watched. This is the reason I was so disappointed in his first few months here...he always made the game look so easy when he faced us. When he would face Garland, it looked like he could put the ball wherever he wanted in the outfield. It's great to see him pick it up....it was all due to my "leadership" tracker!

Contreras just doesn't look comfortable facing lefties anymore.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 03:34 AM) Heh. Heh what?

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 03:40 AM) Mike Taylor-Point Guard. Must Improve-Point Guard Skills I saw Taylor play at Iowa St quite a few games, and he was just a stat sheet stuffer (and not always in a good way). I wonder if Felix remembers the crazy game at Minnesota when he had like 30 pts in the 2nd half of the game. Also, I think when he first went to the D-League last year, he told people he went to UCLA.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 03:52 AM) fathom....how about bilas saying the thing shan foster needed to improve on was his 3 point shooting...that alone should get bilas fired I know Shan had some terrible workouts for teams and at the camps, but that's just blasphemy. He was the best jump shooter in college basketball last season.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 03:10 AM) Funny you say that- CDR was 8% better, shooting percentage wise, than Weems this past year. I know exactly what the stats are, as I watch more college basketball than anyone. However, I guarantee there's not a single scout that thinks CDR is a good shooter. He had a great college career by shooting over 2 guards that he was bigger than.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 04:04 AM) Why no CDR there? I bet Rose would have loved to talk them into it, except he was probably on a plane. CDR can't shoot for s***.

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 02:59 AM) Sonny Weems is a very solid pick. He's a heck of an athlete. Absolutely, he was one of the best players in the country the last few months of the season.

Didn't Dorsey have words for Oden during the 2007 Final Four?

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 03:48 AM) I'd be fine with either...nevermind, there he goes to the Clippers. I'd rather they take Bill Walker than CDR.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 03:46 AM) Come on, CDR!!!! DROP!!!! I'd rather they take DeAndre Jordan

I was told Poreda was bad (6 innings, 6 runs) but 2008 draft pick Hudson was excellent (4 inning, 7 K)

Mario Chalmers looks so sad. It's also amazing to see DeAndre Jordan's decline.

Arthur and a 2nd rounder to Portland for Batum. Portland is just ridiculously talented.

Awesome time to get called into a meeting when it's the bottom of the 9th.

Either has to get that fastball over Kemp's head, or throw the slider in the dirt.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 10:25 PM) He was 100% correct, and I loved it. He basically called out more than half of this board. I just hate when you (Cooper) say stuff like "we're in first place, back off".

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 10:22 PM) Umpiring has been atrocious all across baseball this year. That wasn't even close. What happened to get him tossed? I think Coop is PMSing though, as he was an ass on the Score earlier today.

QUOTE (kane0730 @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 09:19 PM) I like bringing in Thorton here. Bad start...if I recall, he seemed to throw quite a few pitches last night.

Crede with one of the worst games I've seen in a while.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 10:16 PM) They might not have a choice. Is he on pace to reach his option requirement?

Swisher stinks...BTW, I think it was Brian Hanley who said this morning that there's no chance the Sox bring Thome back next season.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 09:34 PM) I see no possible way LBJ leaves Cleveland. I disagree 100 pct with this.
