3E8

I would pay good money to punch him in the face

What the hell is in Twins ice cream

QUOTE(RME JICO @ May 28, 2007 -> 02:45 PM) 3 walks to get to Morneau with the bases loaded, great strategy. We're just icing Santana

QUOTE(JDsDirtySox @ May 28, 2007 -> 02:27 PM) Why did Aardsma wait until the final batter to throw an offspeed pitch? None of us can explain this. Torii Hunter ALWAYS sits on fastballs in these situations and every single time we throw him one. I have no idea how he missed the first two fastballs Aardsma threw him which were right down the middle. It was exactly what he was looking for.

What do you know, he makes a hitter look foolish with good breaking balls. God dammit

QUOTE(3E8 @ May 28, 2007 -> 02:18 PM) Torii sitting dead red just like he always does. Why was a breaking ball not thrown

Torii sitting dead red just like he always does.

We need to score this run from 3rd or game over.

At least he knew which side to try and bunt to. This is something that still escapes many a White Sox.

Has anyone seen Paprika? I really want to but it hasn't hit any theaters around here.

QUOTE(Iguchicago @ May 25, 2007 -> 07:47 PM) According to Soxtalk he's had one of the worst ever. That was poor baserunning right there.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ May 24, 2007 -> 10:17 PM) Are you at all concerned that his K-rate hasn't improved a whole bunch this season (K'ing in 28% of his ABs this year vs 29% last year)? I know Cheat has commented on it, but I'm interested in your thoughts... I'm not that concerned it isn't improving, strikeouts will always be part of his game. You can find several examples of successful players who K in more than 25% of their AB's. I'm more concerned about him maintaining the improvement at the next level in areas necessary if you are gonna K a ton, BB%, XBH%. Both of which he has gotten better at every single year.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ May 24, 2007 -> 09:48 PM) Fields has improved his fieldeing and his k's are high, but he makes up for it with a great walk rate. This year, yes, great BB%. I remember a few arguing with me last year that it was great when it wasn't. But I am impressed that it's improved each year, at this rate he will nearly double last season's walk total. I am anticipating his performance whenever he gets called up.

May continues to be good to Fields .310/.423/.560

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ May 23, 2007 -> 09:53 PM) Why did Charlie die??? Couldn't he have walked out the door and closed it behind him? I am pretty sure that door locked from the inside only, so the water would just push it open unless they really baracaded it somehow.

Guys......................WALT!

Can we end this experiment

What a fall from grace for Carl. Don't feel too bad, he made 45 million dollars during his professional career.

Two more walks for Fields today. OBP up to .372 with a BA around .250. Is he learning plate discipline, or is this just a side-effect of Andy Gonzalez hitting cleanup?

He's locating that fastball so nicely low and away with great movement

Should we bump the 'Guillen leans towards demoting Sweeney' thread? Could be good for quite a few laughs.
