I want to keep winning

Hope the Sox keep Quentin. De Aza, Viciedo, Quentin and I guess Rios would be a good OF and have some run production. Viciedo can play the corner spots, 1B and DH (and maybe an occcassional 3B) so he would get playing time.

2nd place? I am still in it for first place

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 6, 2011 -> 08:34 PM) ESPNChiSox Doug Padilla Pierre needs two hits for 2,000. Neat to see him get them in a Sox uniform

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Sep 6, 2011 -> 09:09 PM) So why are Dunn and Rios playing? Better question...Why am I bothering with this argument? They are playing because they are still a part of the team and are making an awful lot of money to just sit. Rios went 3 for 5 yesterday didn't he? Dunn, well I believe he is trying. I don't know why you are bothering with the argument either. I am not really arguing I am just stating my opinion nd asked you a question. I choose not to sign off on this season yet or our players. What happens over the off season will be interesting for sure

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Sep 6, 2011 -> 08:59 PM) Is that a serious question? Yes it is. Regardless of where we are in the standing right now it is a good thing to think positive. Too many ups and downs in this game to always be thinking the worse. I will settle for them going downm fighting anyway. You play to win and Pierre is doing a good job. Probably won't be back next year but that remains to be seen I guess.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 6, 2011 -> 08:58 PM) Sure glad we continue to play Pierre every game. What is the matter with Pierre now? Have you given up?

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 6, 2011 -> 08:01 PM) I hope Peavy gets shelled early and Axelrod gets 5-6 innings as today is his normal turn. I was kind of expecting Axelrod to start and Peavy to sit the rest of the year, but we are still in it. Question still remains and that is Peavy still in it?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 08:44 PM) And what is the new manager going to do with Rios? If he's on the roster, he'll start. Story today I read saying the OF would be CQ-DeAza, Rios and Vicideo . Pierre most likely not re-signed because of age adn his hig dollar demand (They said $8.5M this year?) I think Lilli is the super sub

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 05:48 PM) Or simply practice how to land without destroyign your body. I hear you, but you know he has made a similar play like that before and a number of other really good dives and leaps to catch flyballs

Pierre

The pitching performances yesterday were super. It was a positive day and hope it carries over to tonights game.

Viciedo with more k's today than Dunn. But, he did have a single

QUOTE (Tex @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 04:48 PM) lol. Thanks but a 1,000 posts that Oz sucks and should be fired versus two that it ain't all his fault is about right I guess we were destroyed or something, or so I was told I never believed it was all Ozzie's fault. I am sure though this off season will be plenty interesting

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 08:48 PM) I think the weak pop ups to the left side where Dunn doesn't even know where he hit it have concerned me more this year than the strike outs. His bat speed is just gone. Maybe no bat speed is because of no confidence? I don't know maybe the guy needs glasses or something. It is troubling for sure

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) Hey, Dunn has put the ball in play twice!1 I am thinking he might have turned the corner

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 08:45 PM) Oh good we get to see Adam against a lousy righty try to go 0-for-3. Well he did hit hard to CF in at bat #2

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 08:42 PM) 6 IP, 5 K's, 4 hits, only a handful of balls hit hard off of Philip, 0 ER. I was afarid the league had caught up wioth Humber, or he had a dead arm, but today he is showing why he should be in the rotation next year

2-0 Sox. Still we left a runner is scoring position with less than two outs

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 06:41 PM) One hopper bounced off his thigh. A target for sure

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 06:35 PM) Philip Humber has a target on his back. Gameday. Did he get hit again or catch a liner right at him?

The return of Dunn? I chose him as my PTC thinking thaty after sittingfor 7 days he might just come out with a vengeance. But, first at bat and another K

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 05:24 PM) Yeah that was Ozzie laughing in the dugout last night. LAUGHING. When asked on air if he would be laughing, Bobby Valentine said "I don't think I could force a smile right now..." Sanity now

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 05:27 PM) Sox had won five of their last six coming into Detroit. That was then and this is now type thing. That's baseball don't you agree?

QUOTE (Tex @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 03:40 PM) Sorry for posting that twice. And thank you for not repeating something you have already posted. Tex, want me to take it from here? Cause I agree with you
