Dunn 3 HR day

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 31, 2011 -> 06:36 PM) He's got a good curve. But his stuff is hardly plus at this point. He's on a hot streak. That's how I see it. I'm not looking at him as a future staple because he's pitched well for a couple months. but wouldn't it be nice ? cue the Beach Boys.

If someone would have told me the Sox would pick up a mystery pitcher who pitches like a Cy young candidate I would have thought we'd be way ahead in the division.

QUOTE (Tex @ May 31, 2011 -> 03:42 AM) Why bunt when you high a potent, high average, offense? We're f***ed either way. I understand what you mean but Lester was on the ropes. It was the 4th inning against a hot hitting team. Lester walks 2 guys and Morel is in a hitters count and has shown some signs of life in May. Lester is LH Morel is right handed. I know Ozzie wanted to try to avoid the DP and Pierre has been hitting around .340 in his last 12 games but would have needed a hit to score a run there since it's unlikely he hits a sac fly. Peavy and the extra runs we got later made the call for the bunt there not look as bad as it was at the time. If it's the 8th or 9th I'm not as upset as I was at the time.

Woo hoo 3 pitchers and one DFA guy brought up before Tank.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ May 30, 2011 -> 07:05 PM) I agree with Ozzie a lot more than most on this board....but I'm really perplexed why Dunn wasn't sent up to bat for Q that inning. Thats too big of a bat to leave on the bench for the entire game. PH for Q ? really ? and with Dunn ?

Who the heck was that talking to Peavy ?

QUOTE (fathom @ May 30, 2011 -> 06:23 PM) He wasn't a FA Ok traded for him as was rumored a few years ago.

Imagine if the Sox had signed Agon instead of Dunn and Konerko DHing.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ May 30, 2011 -> 06:13 PM) Double by Lexi!!! Did it almost clear the monster? A granny would have been nice! It was a litttle blooper over 1st base.

Got my granny in a roundabout way

Granny time.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 30, 2011 -> 06:03 PM) I'm speechless As am I.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 30, 2011 -> 05:38 PM) Pierre clearly went on that pitch. Seems like he got distracted by the runners. Great rest of post though I saw the replay of his swing looked to me like he barely moved it.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 30, 2011 -> 05:33 PM) Guillen and his NL bulls*** goes from 2 men on 0 outs and a 2-0 count to a failed bunt and a strike them out throw them out double play. So guillens bulls*** about his comments being taken out of context, he must of forgot that the big camera doesn't have context. Wow didnt see this very similar to mine .

OH that just pisses me off 1st Ozzie does his NL bulls*** ,righty who's figuring it out against a struggling lefty and calls for a bunt. like its the bottom of the ninth and all we need is one run. Then 2 terrible calls by the umps on the same play. Yea I know it's hindsight since Morel couldn't get the bunt down but knowing Pierre is up next its assinine. Play to break the game open . If Peavy holds the Red Sox to 0 runs the rest of the way I'll admit I was wrong but now I'm just fuming.

Viciedo's last 10 games .343 Avg 4 doubles 3 HR 9 RBI 4 Walks .439 OBP .714 Slugging 1.153 OPS

QUOTE (knightni @ May 25, 2011 -> 02:45 PM) I hardly ever screw the ground. I see what you did there. ground(screw)

It needs to be said... Phil f*cking Humber !!!!

It is time for Viciedo . Our hitting against lefties sucks and hitting lefties is Viciedo's specialty.But in order for him to get significant PT Ozzie has to go .

kudos to Q !

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 24, 2011 -> 10:21 PM) They are chanting Paulie's name. Is that in a mocking fashion, or could there be a bunch of Sox fans there? Sox fans.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 24, 2011 -> 10:00 PM) He's having like one good game every week and a half, just enough to make Ozzie think he can still be the guy he was in Miami circa 2003 To be fair he does have a 9 game hitting streak. Not that I wouldnt take Viciedo in a heartbeat over him though.

Bunt to stay out of the DP and what happens? the great Pierre can't hit a fly ball deep enough to get the runner home from 3rd DP.

I know everybody rightfully calls Hawk a homer but some times if you pay attention he says things without saying things. He he just now described how hard all the TX hitters were smoking the ball this inning. Could he actually be saying Pena sucks or Ozzie sucks in so many words for bringing ( holy smokes a DUnn HR !!!!) in Pena to use against righties who have hit Pena much harder than lefties?
