QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:58 PM) Frasor's been a disaster for the Sox so far And Stewart hasn't been and saved money and got rid of Teahen. I'd call that a win.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:51 PM) That sure looked like it could have been a strike. Again, nice to know we wasted Edwin Jackson to get Frasor. You can't seriously be harping about that . Stewart's already done what Jackson could do and we have him under control and got a guy who if we let walk gives us just as much as Jackson would have.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:44 PM) Sookie or Snooki? I'd watch Man-Soo Lee streaking if it meant going over .500 for once this season. LOL I 'd agree IF we never go below .500 again this season.

5 triples and a Pierre HR. We have to win this. Cleveland bullpen nearing the end of the line.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:19 PM) No excuse for that Lillibridge ass should be benched for a week................Getting above .500 should NEVER be this FN hard! Maybe that wasn't on Lilli ,could be Tyler missed a steal sign.

Holy s*** did Tyler miss a sign ?

I need a hero.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:14 PM) I'm shocked he hit a ground ball to 3rd baseman. I ope Soxtalk never warns against sarcasm.

5 triples the charm ?

Guess you have to leave Thornton in. Please do well Matt.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 08:56 PM) And he's making $14 million. I'm not saying that it's right but thats a big reason. Same reason he won't PH for Dunn but then trots out Lilli to play defense right after.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 08:49 PM) Quentin has been fine defensively this year in RF. There was absolutely no reason to pull him to put Rios in CF, who's been a disaster out there. It's a tough call. Who knows if DeAza would have been playing deeper or shallower , if he would have had the balls to dive for it knowing ,if caught the Sox win, and if missed it could cost the Sox the game.

Ozzie's deference to the veterans is just messing up everything.

So do we think DeAza might have had that bloop on the hit and run ? If so then Ozzie's defensive switch is to blame.

I was saying Gordon look at as many pitches as you can so maybe the pitcher uncorks a wild one. So what does he do just swing at everything.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 07:35 PM) strike zone is getting weirder and weirder For sure. Strike called a ball then ball called a strike on 2 consecutive pitches.

What a game !

I saw the catcher setting up inside and already have seen DeAza likes those. Triple time !

Indian's are a pesky bunch.

Hell yes DeAzaaaaa

QUOTE (hi8is @ Aug 11, 2011 -> 10:44 PM) He sure has been drawing a lot of walks lately. Compared to last year... wow. That will happen when your thumb hurts and you'd rather not swing the bat.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Aug 15, 2011 -> 06:11 PM) What a great moment Liked hearing the det guys ripping on the jeter media coverage I think them going on about the Jeter coverage was misplaced. After all Jeter is a lifetime Yankee. Thome's is in his 2nd year with the Twins and the majority of his HR's are with other teams. Oh and it was the Twins announcers not the Tigers.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 15, 2011 -> 06:07 PM) YESS!! 600!! And more importantly the 3 RBI increases the Twins lead to 9-5.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 15, 2011 -> 09:20 AM) can we keep the beard His last appearance pitching for the Sox he had shaved his beard off.

8 out of last 10 and Danks 5-1 with a 2.29 ERA in his last nine starts.
