Best 2 hitter EVAR!!!

QUOTE (BaconOnAStick @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 04:18 PM) Just one bad pitch for Belly, damn Eh, one that was hit. The first out was on a horrible pitch as well. He's got to keep the ball down.

LOL, horrible pitch

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 04:08 PM) Who had Flowers in the 4-hit pool? Nobody, ever. It's his career high.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 04:02 PM) Anyone can sit there today is my guess with 20 people there. No way in the scout seats. Maybe closer to the field in regular seats.

QUOTE (Hawkfan @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 04:01 PM) are the scout seat fans always this distasteful with their commentary? or are they just staing liquored up deal with the weather? Holy s*** Adam Eaton! Well, its unlimited booze so you tend to get real drunk. Couple that with cold, and a long few innings. Im sure they are nicely toasted.

Eaton is so good.

Thanks Jones.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:44 PM) You guys think I'm a moron for saying this all the time, but Nate Jones' arm delivery is awful. I only saw one other guy throw like that, Keith Foulke. I don't know how any pitching coach can allow him to pitch that way. Some of you guys who were pitchers ... do u agree with me?? His arm delivery is not conducive to anything positive. He's a reliever so delivery doesnt mean much to me as it gives him movement and slight deception. He lacks control which is something that is known about him. Its one reason why he was a poor option as closer.

Falling into quicksand

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:37 PM) I know I talk about not jumping to conclusions a lot, but color me concerned about Garcia. Come on Trayce! Garcia is younger than Trayce Thompson.

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:27 PM) Apparently I’m spoiled with my DirecTV DVR. I can do all the same things Chili just mentioned. Yeah he just described the genie, Comcast finally tried to catch up to everyone else.

QUOTE (Allsox @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:34 PM) Best part was Abreu waiting back on that 3rd curveball to drive the sucker. Now if he can teach Viciedo that.... Kind of went off the end of the bat a bit and still got it to 400 feet. Amazing

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:29 PM) You would be wrong. His arm strength was above average with crazy accuracy. People would run on him like they run on Tank, because he would be fumbling the ball or taking forever getting to it, and got burned a lot. Wrong about what? Above average doesnt not equal great. So we agree.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:28 PM) Is that a HR in the summer? Not sure because he really just threw the bat at it.

He didnt even get much into that swing, still to the fence.

Man he has pop.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:22 PM) If stats say he has a good arm, it's even more evidence those are garbage stats. The eye test says he throws like a girl. Stats show he could throw people out, but they also ran on him because he did not have a "great arm." It still wouldnt be my example of a guy with no range with an arm. But back to the game.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:10 PM) Range is more important than the fielder's arm in every outfield position. I'd rather have 3 Brett Gardners than 3 Alfonso Sorianos in my outfield. Soriano is your example the arm? I'd take Jermaine Dye over Soriano every day.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:06 PM) If Dunn has a career year, he's a borderline MVP. If he has a career half he is GONE.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:04 PM) Range is a hell of a lot more important than arm. As you can see in this game today. The first 3 games havent "proven" anything to me other than we look like we have more energy and confidence. Baseball is not a sprint.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 02:57 PM) That is the prevailing theory in baseball not really just a unique opinion I hold. Who said it was unique? I asked if it was your opinion for clarification. I prefer him in right because of his arm, I like a strong arm throwing home from RF.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 03:01 PM) Have a game Avi Maybe he's not warm enough yet? Get the guy a coat.

Thats what Dunn is supposed to do in that situation. Nice job.
