QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 08:00 PM) +12 on Minnesota in the last month. That is crazy. I see you're fond of that.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 08:01 PM) They got all but $1.5 million paid, and gave up Smoak. That is crazy. They've never won a World Series so they're going for it this year. They having a lot of good hitting already but Smoak is a lot to give up.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 01:49 PM) I'd love Texas to get him, but with their bankruptcy they are taking on zero contract money. You were saying ?

Helluva run ! 23 out of last 28.

Buerhle ! AJ !! Jones !! 3 stars of the game.

Got Sara doing post game interviews now ala blackhawks telecasts.

QUOTE (Queen Prawn @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 07:48 PM) Better to learn that tonight than a 1 run game. Hey, I am trying to be positive - not something I am good at lol. We're so proud of you !

6 in a row 9 games over .500 !!

Betancourt hits crappy curve out to left. Marquez debut not so good. Hanging his curve.

Marquez in.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 07:40 PM) AJ done blowed the game wide open... Seriously... How can Adam Dunn NOT wanna come here? He has a chance to be a part of something really special. And he's seen first hand how good the team is right now without him and he knows he would be filling a gaping hole in the line up. Plus he's going to be a free agent at the end of the year. I'd be begging for a trade to the White Sox. The Nats want too much for him.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 07:38 PM) This is where I'd get along with a lot of posters if they would admit when they are wrong. I always admit the things I'm wrong about. Like Rios. I was wrong. Those who didn't want AJ in the lneup tonight should realize they were wrong. Some people like me are never wrong

AJ was hitting . 360 with 2 out RISP now even better and 13 rbi's in that situation .

AJ HR !!

Wild pitch PK to 3rd. Q works a walk. Lilly PR for Q.

PK gapper 5-0.

Threets and Marquez warming in the pen.

Tigers beat Twins 7-3.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 07:18 PM) Ha AJ homered against Chen tonight. Fathom was freaking out that AJ was playing even though AJ is our starting catcher. AJ played because he hits Chen good now 6/12 with 2 HR. Nice job Sergio. Might be looking at another shut out tonight !

Buerhle out Santos in.

Everyones asleep tonight 2 posts in a game thread in 18 minutes ?

QUOTE (That funky motion @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 07:06 PM) Who is pitching for KC on Sat and Sun? Bannister then Greinke.

QUOTE (Rooftop Shots @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 06:06 AM) Could someone help me out? I'm looking for some realistic info on Hudson? What should I mostly watch for when he pitches. What are his main pitches. How is his command? Does he have good movement on his fastball. What is his out pitch? Changeup, Hard slider, late breaking curve/ cutter? Is he a good "first Strike" pitcher. How is he on strike out / walk ratio? Can he throw any one of his pitches in any count. I hear a lot of hype on this guy not only from Chicago, but other places as well (MLB network etc) Lastly, are the expectations REAL on this guy, or a possible "wanna be hopeful". Remember, we once had Feilx Diaz who wa s 10-1 with a 1.85 ERA. Came up, gave up 10 runs to the Yankees, and now he's pitching in Japan. That hype ended in a heartbeat! I know it's a lot of questions, but if he is going to fill the rotaion for maybe the rest of the year, I just want to know what to mainly look for, even if it takes him a little time to get acclaimated to his new career dream, and him getting his head settled in when it comes time to filling some Really Big Shoes with the Peavy loss. Thanks! Just google "scouting report on Dan Hudson" . You'll find tons of good stuff.

Hit another one AJ.

Probably eliminated the email guys job .
