Come on Hector, throw strikes

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 26, 2012 -> 04:44 PM) Has to be hurt. Or traded. Or murdered by a SoxTalk poster. Floyd to the Dodgers for Carl Crawford and Josh Beckett...

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 26, 2012 -> 04:43 PM) I know but to the point where he cant pitch past the 2nd? Thats not good. Definitely something new to pull him after 2. I wouldn't be surprised if it had something to do with the wet mound. Nice catch Ray.

Well Hector, pitch like you want to be in the rotation next year.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 26, 2012 -> 04:41 PM) Santiago warming up in the bullpen. Interesting. Anyone see anything that could have been injury-causing from Floyd last inning? He is pitching on a wet mound, so that could hit an ankle or something.

Hmph. Despite that long stretch of terribleness, Tyler's OPS is up over .700. That's impressive.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 26, 2012 -> 04:34 PM) It would be nice to not wait until the 5th inning to get this tied up. Satisfactory, I dub this.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 26, 2012 -> 04:37 PM) Alex is now a 20-20 guy. That 20th SB created some really muddy pants.

The weather is really getting to the M's here.

It would be nice to not wait until the 5th inning to get this tied up.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 26, 2012 -> 03:58 PM) Part of that money is an advance against their future regional sports network contract, is one way of looking at it. Essentially, the belief is that deep playoff runs the next two post-seasons will more than pay for itself at the end of 2013 when they get a new t.v. contract. From the, you have to spend money to make money school of business. But look at the Angels, trading for Greinke, the Vernon Wells contract, Wilson, Pujols, the presence of Trout and Trumbo, Weaver, etc. It's all about the two LA teams becoming NY/BOS West Coast Version. Furthermore, having Adrian Gonzalez on their roster is probably going to be an incredibly valuable asset for them in terms of developing additional following amongst the communities with Mexican backgrounds in the LA area.

Sad thing is, 2 of those hits were incredibly weak, end of the bat, happened to send the ball where no fielder was type hits.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 26, 2012 -> 02:20 PM) How long is the delay expected to last? They said the goal was a 1:45 start time when I was listneing in a few minutes ago.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 26, 2012 -> 10:26 AM) Quite possibly, yes. Every person that buys a Samsung phone did not buy an Apple phone. Wow...that was pretty easy to demonstrate. Especially considering Samsung walked away from negotiations that would have allowed them to license these design ideas. The goal of patents is not to allow a company infinite revenue every time it gets a good idea, it is to allow them a sufficient reward to make the invention effort worth it. Thus, you didn't actually demonstrate what you think you did. Apple has gotten a substantial reward in terms of sales for everything they've brought to the market. The question is...should it be able to use government intervention to make sure that no one else can step into that market?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 26, 2012 -> 01:15 PM) http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/break...0,1055981.story 1-0 Angels. Threatening for more, runner on 2nd, 2 outs. Have to get to Scherzer early before he gets into a rhythm. What'd Hawk do in the Tigers series?

What a catch by Vernon Wells!

F***ing pathetic.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Aug 25, 2012 -> 10:25 PM) it really isn't Balta. you are imagining things. Which is why everyone asks for the birth certificate of the guy who was born in the Panama Canal zone. Or had a father born in Mexico. Those guys never got past those questions. Has nothing to do with assuming that a black guy must be illegitimate.

Woo.

Crap.

Too many fastballs

Crap.

That is 2 impressive outs.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 25, 2012 -> 10:18 PM) So far so good. Is that next series against Detroit in Detroit? I thought the last series Sox had against Detroit was in Motown. Usually it flip flops. In Chi I think

Wow Addy
