QUOTE (chisox2334 @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 03:56 PM) funny thing is we were all wanting wise out of lineup I don't think out of the lineup...just out of the leadoff spot. I had no problem with Weezy playing CF and hitting 8th or so against righties.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 03:38 PM) As much as fate was against Owens last year, the stars have perfectly aligned for him this year. Aside from drawing walks this ST, he did nothing to earn the leadoff spot. Then a longer term injury hits the guy at his position and a short term injury hurts the guy in his preferred batting order slot. Whatterya sayin' there Nostrodamus?....he'll burst onto the MLB scene?

Great AB for Paulie!...big run.

Get him the f*** outta there...

wow...dude's swinging the bat well and makes a game-changing catch and he still gets bashed.

That easily could have been an inside the park HR if Weezy misses that one. Hope he's ok...

WOW...DWEEEZY FLASHIN' THE GLOVE.

ATTABOY QQQQQQQQQ!!!!!!!

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Apr 12, 2009 -> 04:25 PM) I really hope the culture around this team and the Metrodome changes this year. It DISGUSTS me to hear people talk about that place as if it's cursed. Or impossible to win in. I don't want to hear any quotes from anyone that resembles a defeatist attitude (ie, we'll be lucky to win one). I'll never forget how pitiful it was being around Soxtalk, and just listening to the White Sox become little girls at the discussion of the Dome late in the season. I remember a few weeks before, when we were looking ahead to that series (and realizing it'd probably mean something), Hawk was saying -- "we better have a 3+ game lead in the standings because we cant win down there." You know damn well the entire team thought this. Sure enough, we were swept. It needs to stop. It's embarrassing to listen to. Agreed. It needs to start with Ozzie though...

The next series against the Twinkies is in May and in Chicago. We need to take at least 2 of 3. The next 9 games against them are in that s***hole dome.

Great win. Nice contribution from the entire lineup. Getz was the only person to not get a hit. Noticed too the K's were down...only 3 for the game. Awesome job by Mark today! Wouldn't have minded not making everybody squirm in the 9th.

oh f*** me...come on.

bout time AJ. Remember the start he got off to last year. Get back on the wii....

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 12, 2009 -> 02:09 PM) Beckett threw a ball at abreu's head after abreu called time mid-pitch, Hunter went after an ump& looked like he shoved him. No huge punches yet, but the angels are clearly on edge right now. jesus...half the fans in Anaheim are Bosox fans. back to back...yuke and drew. Somebody from the Bosox is getting drilled soon. Personally I think Beckett's turned into another Clemens...basically cause he's an ALer and doesn't have to bat.

Crain's got a nasty hook...

GUTSY....I thought no-way at first.

HUGE RUN! ATTA BOY JOSH!

How can we be CONSTANTLY lofting soft flyballs against a sinkerballer?

ATTABOY JIMMY!!!!!!

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 11, 2009 -> 11:55 AM) Last year at Charlotte Getz hit .319/.380/.433/.813 vs lefties in 141 AB. He actually hit lefties 44 OPS points better than righties. There are quite possibly 4 automatic outs in today's lineup. (and that's not counting Alexei who couldn't hit a breaking ball to save his life right now) Seriously...that's pretty bad. Lexi (aka Serrano) needs to tell Jobu "F-U....I do it myself". Lillibridge leading off...god help us.

GODDAMMIT!!!!.... No MLB Extra Innings. BASTARDS! This is what pisses me off...regional coverage...super. But for people outside of the region it just basically screws them. What's the purpose of blacking it out for MLB coverage? Guess this blows my plans today. Cold rainy day in Phx today and I was gonna curl up with a few beers on my couch.

Tough crowd here... Soon as I hit enter...dingdong gets picked off. Super.

Speaking of rundowns...I wonder how much it was actually worked on this spring training given the fact of how pathetic we were last year with them. Not sure it was ever brought up in any of the ST threads.

To be honest it did look like a balk to me. Leaning towards home IMO... Need to see it again though. AJ's pissed.
