I'm not about to throw my support behind every part of the Democrat platform, but I think the national income needs to be increased significantly. People will likely have to pay for this, and probably not just the super-rich

da f***?

I vote this trivial discussion be moved to the catch-all thread.

Shannon Hoon or from that list...Freddie Mercury

I agree, criticize the only guy to hit a single pitch of Scherzer's hard tonight

QUOTE (Caesar @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 09:19 PM) Vegas has opened the Tigers at a =175 favorite tomorrow night with Sale pitching. That is terrible news for the Sox. We get swept. f***, Vegas is always right

O-Dog > all?

Yep, sure sucks that we have to play the same or 1 game worse than Detroit to be able to make the playoffs this year

That one from the Konerko school of hitting

Austin Jackson is one heck of a player

Back to back to back to back let's go

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:43 PM) What does that mean? Any IP addresses associated with my account (like the one I stupidly just signed in with) are not allowed to view, register, post, etc

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:40 PM) What happened? I just used my log-in here to see if I had ever made an account there, and apparently not only do I have the same account name, it was banned. I think a bunch of us in chat were trolling over there like 5 years ago or something. Now I can't make new account lol

Fuuu IP ban at another board

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:29 PM) So you take out the 2nd best lefty in the lineup tonight for defensive reasons before the game even starts? Wise has done his job tonight at the plate. More of a general statement that I would have started Danks from the get-go over Wise. Much like most of Soxtalk

f*** Comerica Park

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:24 PM) So you have the numbers staring you in the face that Danks provides a better opportunity for success than viciedo, but you trust your gut. Got it. If it was "any righty" vs "any lefty" ... sure, probably a lefty. But we're looking at Jordan Danks and Dayan Viciedo. What Dayan might lack in hits compared to Jordan, I believe he'll make up for in extra base hits. I would have started Danks over Wise, though. Wise provided offense today but his hustle and defense continue to frustrate so it's tough to say what the right call is there.

Being a tough guy doesn't fix a slumping bat. The fact that two of our top hitters in Dunn, De Aza are not present and three of our other best hitters PK-AJ-Rios are slumping doesn't mean our team is a bunch of p*****s, it means we're slumping. I'd like to fix it, but I don't see evidence that we're gutless, just very unsuccessful thus far

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:19 PM) Veal continues to do the job vs lefties I think we'll see him back next season.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:17 PM) So you would look at the rhp ba against scherzer and then look at viciedo's ba against rhp and play him? you would be increasing the probability of an out from that position. Full stop. Yes, I think Dayan Viciedo is more likely to contribute to a Sox win against Max Scherzer than Jordan Danks

This board has regressed into Cub-like posting quality Hope the Sox win so I can call off the suicide watch

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:12 PM) Olmedo should have been playing instead of Beckham and Danks over Viciedo. The righties have no chance against that slider. I'll have my Dayan, thanks And O-Dog > Olmedo for me

Heads up play, Nate

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:00 PM) Nice start to the inning. I want to hear "It's All Good" I would very much like to hear that this evening
