Milkman delivers

Great DP.

THANK YOU, PAUL KONERKO

Green? No. Have you SEEN his stuff? His talent is straight through the roof. Teams would line up for blocks for the mere chance to trade for a starter the caliber of Javier Vazquez. We should count our lucky stars that we have the honor to see this man pitch his ass off every 5th day.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 27, 2008 -> 02:05 PM) He's a proven playoff performer. I'd rather have him there than Floyd. Vazquez is a choke artist of the highest level. I'd start any one of our pitchers over him in any playoff situation.

for Javier Vazquez, our most talented and best pitcher. This guy is just a flat-out winner and I, for one, am very happy to have him locked up for years to come. There's something great about knowing he'll always keep you in the game when it matters most, and that he's always going to step up in the big game. This one's for you, Javy.

What's Miner's pitch count?

One of Detroit's announcers sounds just like Joe Morgan.

Stop swinging at the first pitches, you f***ing morons.

I saw probably 10 movies in the last month, but I can't even recall most of them off the top of my head right now. I went with the girlfriend to see Shine A Light at the Imax last night. It surprisingly kind of bored me, as the Stones played a bunch of covers and songs that were really unknown. We actually left a little early to go out drinking. Step Brothers, while not living up to my (ridiculous) expectations, was extremely funny. Mongol was very, very good. It was definitely the best foreign film I'd ever seen, which isn't many. We'll probably go see the X-Files movie this week.

Wow, good job that time.

People need to get into chat. I need to b**** about Vazquez.

Ahhh, give him a run, he'll give a bunch back. Go away, Javier.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 27, 2008 -> 12:58 PM) If you have a team thats going to lose 90 games, Javy Vazquez will be a stud. A big game pitcher he is not. Exactly. I've been saying it since 2006.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ Jul 27, 2008 -> 12:53 PM) There's our best pitcher! I can't believe anyone has ever said that. For some reason, he's also a "shoo-in" to start in the playoffs. The guy tears the world apart...as long as he's on a s***ty team. Put even the slightest amount of pressure on him, and you get the 5 ERA. He's a useless piece of dog s*** and is the epitome of a loser.

Does anyone else HATE Vazquez? He's the anti-stopper.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 25, 2008 -> 02:35 AM) pwned. On one of the ridiculous things.

What did C.J. Wilson do?

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jul 23, 2008 -> 05:18 PM) And when watching the movie it all made sense. I clearly stated that it was more believable within the context of what type of movie it is and not more realistic. And it made sense in No Country For Old Men because Chigurh was an expert tracker/killer. And to the point about Woody Harrelson knowing where the briefcase was thrown off the bridge, I believe Los Medias Blancas brought something like this up. It seems likely that Brolin's character told Harrelson's character the location of the briefcase so he can help him out. If you notice when you watch the movie, Harrelson counts the poles he walks by until he reaches a specific point, looks over the edge, and sees the case.

Hamilton is clearly getting the MVP, even though his team won't make the playoffs.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 23, 2008 -> 03:09 AM) so, largely because ESPN hasn't been shoving it down my throat, ramming it up my ass, and trying to shoot it into my bloodstream all at the same time, I had no idea that Daisuke Matsuzaka has an ERA of 2.63 this year. Aside from absolutely horrendous control, he has been money this year. Maybe I've just taught myself how to zone myself out of ESPN at the right times now a days, because I was actually surprised to see that. Just weird And Boston fans still rip him apart regularly. You would think he has a decent ERA instead of the one he has.

QUOTE (Texsox @ Jul 23, 2008 -> 03:45 PM) SYDNEY (Reuters) - An Australian man's dare went horribly wrong when he tried to play chicken with cars on a freeway wearing only his underwear. The 18 year old was critically injured after being hit by a four-wheel drive on a freeway in the southern city of Melbourne in the early hours of Wednesday, police said in a statement. "Police are dismayed at the utter stupidity of a man who decided to play chicken on the Tullamarine Freeway," the statement said. "It was lucky nobody was killed as a result and police couldn't believe anybody would be foolish enough to take such grave risks with their personal safety and that of other road users." The driver and passenger in the car were unhurt, though the vehicle was a write-off. (Reporting by Jonathan Standing; Editing by Valerie Lee) Gotta love those crazy Aussies What an asshole. This guy should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jul 23, 2008 -> 03:24 PM) Definitely more believable, and I don't mean realistic. Less "you gotta be kidding me" moments when considering what the movies are. I was just left shaking my head when the bag is thrown over the fence by the border into a seemingly impossible to find spot yet is immediately found. Too huge of a coincidence to find that darn bag so easily as it was put in a pretty random spot. It was hard to believe how the killer, what's-his-face, always would easily end up where that guy was hiding. He's found way too easily across the border in the hospital. Then there's some random shot of the killer in the motel out of nowhere that didn't really make any sense. And then the sopranos-like ending was lame... Yeah, those things you bring up are definitely more likely to occur than a guy having half his face burnt perfectly down the middle and being able to survive and function properly afterwards, a balloon that is picked up by a plane just over a crowded urban area to pull a man dressed as a bat with the ability to soar by using electrically charged capes, and every single elaborate plan that the Joker devised through that movie. Thanks for pointing out how much more believable the Dark Knight was than No Country For Old Men.

This bullpen's been getting progressively worse. That's not good, especially when you couple that with Vazquez, Contreras, and Floyd getting progressively worse, too.
