Like it or not, it's time to start getting Stewart up.

Was it Heads yesterday saying he couldn't remember the last time Hawk really broke down AJ's swing? He's doing the exact same thing with Gavin/Steve Stone's motions today.

Crud.

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ May 27, 2012 -> 02:30 PM) Bad play by Paulie/McEwing. Should be 3-0. Guys, this is Konerko you're talking about. He might have been thrown out by Damon.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 27, 2012 -> 02:29 PM) Ugh, PK should have been trying to score there. Anyone else...yes.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 27, 2012 -> 02:28 PM) Remember when Ubaldo was the next big thing? I can still remember one 98 mph fastball he threw that had a harder break than a good slider.

No, don't turn Tank loose on 3-0.

QUOTE (farmteam @ May 27, 2012 -> 02:18 PM) I can think of one place around here (and I'm guessing it's way more common and I just haven't noticed it) when you order delivery they explicitly tell you that a delivery fee does not go to the driver and they can/should still be tipped. I see what you're saying, though. Which drives me nuts, because they raised the price of delivery by instituting that fee, but I was already tipping for that reason. Bah.

LOL. Does that count as a hit?

2 good swings by Dunn on the fastball, just missed them.

Swing of beauty, Gordon.

Just solid work at the plate by Kipnis.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ May 27, 2012 -> 01:22 AM) And if someone is calling someone an asshole they probably deserve less. I delivered pizza in college and didn't get mad at anyone for a s***ty tip. If I got no tip I wasn't happy but that's life. No need to call someone an asshole because they don't tip what you want them to. They don't have to tip at all. I hate this one...I always used to tip on a delivery, then everyone instituted "Delivery fees". Now I feel guilty if I don't tip, but I also feel like I'm already playing the **** tip because of the mandatory delivery fee.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 27, 2012 -> 02:05 PM) It's still my opinion that Morel needs to spend weeks in AAA. He needs to prove his health AND his ability to hit. Bill Melton says "you don't deserve to lose your position to injury." No, Bill, he deserves to lose it based on his .170 batting average. If he spent 40 games playing that badly because of his health, well, he's an idiot. Just means that he needs to prove his health beyond a doubt in the minor leagues. We're in a pennant race and I don't want to see a gimp .170 hitter in our lineup Why is that his call if he's not covering up the injury?

Come on G.

Who else is 1b competition? Pujols, Fielder, Tex, Gonzalez are in this league, but none of them are hitting like the Captain.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 27, 2012 -> 12:08 PM) So what is his trade value now? Climbing.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 27, 2012 -> 12:58 PM) Take your time, Brent. Would be great to see him start hitting and fielding better down there.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 26, 2012 -> 07:26 PM) Danuel is the Lion's Den? Omar Vizquel's legend lives. 3 hits versus the Rangers, first one hitting RH'ed, including what is looking like the game-winning RBI in the 13th. Apparently Hamilton said no to that.

QUOTE (SmashROT @ May 26, 2012 -> 09:22 PM) Can anyone find how many runs we had through May the last two seasons? 2012: 202 2011: 237 2010: 210

That was the best grilled chicken I've ever pulled off. Tomorrow...Ribs.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 26, 2012 -> 07:29 PM) And platooning De Aza. And platooning/trading that bum Viciedo.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 26, 2012 -> 07:22 PM) That makes 33 runs over the last three days. We're not supposed to be outscoring the Tigers, but we currently are.

This has been some beatings. Now we need to get some pitching to go with.

Viciedo nailed another one. Just right at the 3b
