As someone mentioned earlier, and I definitely agree with it: we all need to think about what we post, and before we hit submit, make sure it's actually something with substance that will contribute to the subject.

Beautiful play by Crede, and I do love Uribe's turn on the double plays.

Well, another terrible play by Cabrera. How many non-error bad defensive plays can one player make in a week?

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 7, 2008 -> 01:19 AM) Sure, use that as an excuse. Work with the fastball, deep in the count, OK. He's trying to show KW they made a mistake and trying to hit the ball 600 ft. I'm just sticking up for Crede, who, despite his now hitting .333 with some clutch hits, still gets treated like a minor leaguer. His hit contributed to 2 runs last inning. Fields started off very slow last year. We have no clue what his track record is with the majors, but maybe he's a slow starter. Thus, it's better off he's in the minors right now.

Ah yes, another Fields/Crede debate. Crede's better off starting with the big league club right now than Fields, it's blatantly obvious. Shortstop is a much bigger concern.

I'll take it from Uribe.

Hey Joe Morgan, how's Carlos Guillen's Gold Glove season coming along?

QUOTE(Bhay99 @ Apr 7, 2008 -> 01:08 AM) can crede bunt? Hope so... Why would you? With a slow runner on 2nd and Uribe up next, you have to let Crede swing away.

Don't bunt and don't hit into a double play Joe. Make up for your defense.

I don't care what the error total says....our defense has been atrocious this season.

Yikes....you can cancel the Gold Glove ceremony.

Joe Morgan is just such an idiot. Yes Joe, good hitters like it when a breaking ball breaks compared to hanging.

If we were going to trade with the Angels, I wish we would have got Chone and a prospect instead of one year with the overrated Cabrera.

Thome's been too aggressive at the plate the last few games it seems like.

Great defense by Dye there. Good thing Uribe was the cut off man, as Cabrera would have two hopped it to 3rd base.

Wow, that was awful. Going to give up the lead here, and the Tigers have the momentum.

Cabrera continues to disappoint at the plate. He really could use a day off.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ Apr 7, 2008 -> 12:32 AM) Are the announcers seriously discussing what is wrong with Cabrera? It is the freaking the 6th game of the season. It's pretty obvious what's wrong with him...he's off-balanced due to his stride being off. That's why he's check swinging a lot and breaking his bat.

It will be interesting how Buehrle does against Cabrera. Cabrera's the type of guy who's destroyed soft tossing lefties in his career.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Apr 7, 2008 -> 12:11 AM) Why did Konerko not dump that changeup into CF is beyond my knowledge. Some of PK's worst at bats the last few years have been against Verlander.

Can't remember the last time we had one of those stay fair. Good start!

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Apr 6, 2008 -> 07:18 PM) http://www2.ljworld.com/blogs/sawin_wood/2...awinwood040608/ Some are speculating that the press conference could be a rule change of 2 years mandatory of college. That would be something. That's not possible until the next CBA, which is in 2011 I believe.

QUOTE(Brian @ Apr 6, 2008 -> 12:27 AM) Says the guy sitting on his couch watching. He has been inconsistent, and still averages double digit points, but to call him terrible is ridiculous. Gimme a break. 32 pct three point shooting for a guy who only takes uncontested jumpers is bad, considering he does nothing else on the court. I don't think UCLA hit a jump shot after the first 5 minutes of the game. And what does my ability have to do with saying Shipp is bad? It's not like I said I'm better than he is.

J. Shipp is a terrible basketball player.

Great defense in the 9th inning! Very solid win.
