Nick Swisher looks like non-hustling ass on ball he thought was foul

Garza would never lose his cool on the mound. Never.

THE CUBS

You're our only hope Dunner

Rizzo alligator-armed the f*** outta that one

Dear Cub fans, Darwin Barney sucks.

Lots of games left to change our minds about who will stick around next year. We could easily hate Josh Phegley and love Blake Tekotte a month from now

Kenny Williams ‏@NotKenWilliams 15m Cubs fans certainly enjoy our diamond suites, jumbotron, running water, delicious food, ample parking, and modern plumbing...don't they?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 8, 2013 -> 09:33 PM) Looks like Hawkins blocked the sports writer for the Winston-Salem paper because he pointed out he had a golden sombrero. Nice to see Courtney runs to twitter right after the game to see what everyone is saying about him. How can you tell if somebody has blocked someone else on twitter?

As fathom alluded to, mechanical faults can make it seem like your pitch recognition is bad when it isn't. There are all kinds of things that can leave a hitter unable to hit more than one speed of pitch

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2013 -> 09:29 PM) I'll make the prediction that the 4th outfielder next year isn't in the organization right now. I also will make a prediction that the Sox will give Mitchell some ABs at the MLB level at the end of this year. Why go outside the org. for a backup OF'er in a rebuilding/transition year?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2013 -> 09:27 PM) He's just a bad player who had a 2 week hot stretch in AAA and the Sox brought him up. He's just one part of a 3 man race for fourth outfielder of the future. I'm okay with that

Soriano has been under fire for his OF defense for a long time, but UZR has consistently rated him good to excellent out there http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playe...;position=2B/OF

Tekotte struggled against righties in AAA

3-0 green light, swings at a ball. Oh well, I'm surprised Robin let him do it

Garza scared of Phegs. book it

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 8, 2013 -> 09:17 PM) Nice job to get out of the jam, thanks in part to the fan. Would be nice to score some runs. You'd think the Sox one night would luck into 8-9 runs by law of averages. We did. The other team lucked into 19 that night

"Hector not afraid to pitch out of a jam" True. Also, not afraid to get into one

lol that dumbass fan knew he shouldn't touch it

QUOTE (staxx @ Jul 8, 2013 -> 09:09 PM) I agree. I think he'll be one of those borderline 100-115 if he continues to play well. Gasp. We might have close to 3 top-100s Lots of season left for that to go away (or improve? maybe? not sure who would be a candidate to work back in with an especially strong second half)

Anderson should get a look for top 100. We'll see how he finishes the year

I thought he was only packing one

There was a screwball. To Barney. Stone speechless because he doesn't know what it is.

That looks familiar
