You know, after this ass kicking, KW better be finding out if Castro is pitching well because of stuff and things like that.

I make gamethreads. This is what I do.

Yeah, so this team is hot.

I'm not blaming anyone over Molina 50 games into the season in a Winner thread discussing a well pitched game by a rookie. The end.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 26, 2012 -> 02:02 PM) Then maybe his "eyes" should be paying more attention to whether our "prize" acquisition of the offseason, Molina, was actually playing Winter Ball in Venezuela or not. What do you honestly know about what KW is or is not looking at? Stop with the grandiose speculation. Molina will get to the majors when ready.

QUOTE (zenryan @ May 26, 2012 -> 01:06 PM) So people dont wear gloves when playing 16" softball? I have no idea because I havent played in a softball game since PE in 7th grade. Nope, no gloves in 16". Some longtime players end up with some fugly fingers

Aging to perfection

Last night there was 21k, like I said in the winner thread, the attendance is creeping up. If the Sox keep winning then the attendance will keep going up.

F*** the team from Cleveland part deux. Go Sox. JFPIAA

Chicago crowds starting to grow a little bit. This team can be fun to watch once they start clicking on a regular basis. Viciedo and Dunn hit a couple of straight bombs to dead center, I love the consistent deep power threat throughout the lineup.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 25, 2012 -> 09:32 PM) Damn...Braun is going off in the last month...is he still using ped's folks? Depends. Is MLB still using the same courier service?

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ May 25, 2012 -> 02:47 PM) My fall team threw two shutouts last season 15-0 and 10-0. We have shut out teams before too, it isn't easy but we have done it. Still, 9 runs between two teams is not normal for us

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 25, 2012 -> 06:06 PM) Rios's nickname is tar? Really? We don't question nicknames around here anymore. We just let them go

12", 14", and 16" are all very common around chicago. For whatever reason the closer you get to the city 16" ball is more prevalent, but in the burbs 12" is pretty popular. 14" is pretty much strictly coed.

Not really seeing this as buster-worthy, so i am moving it to SLaM

Steve might have to change his superman picture to a feathered serpent

I hope Quintana lives up to the mythical status we have bestowed upon him

QUOTE (fathom @ May 25, 2012 -> 01:04 PM) I'm not sure if you saw this in the game thread last night, but I have been on board with De Aza playing every day for about 10 days now. Like you said, Lillibridge hasn't been able to recreate the magic he had from last year. Like I said, Im just teasing. De Aza is balling, we both win.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 25, 2012 -> 01:01 PM) I heard they agreed to take the field, but only to bow to the Quintana. out of fear of becoming a sacrifice

QUOTE (BFirebird @ May 25, 2012 -> 12:54 PM) Definitely. Looks like I won't have to worry about a Hafner, Kipnis, or Choo homer in RF. They will concede their ABs out of pure fear. I have heard rumors they will refuse to take the field tonite

QUOTE (BFirebird @ May 25, 2012 -> 12:09 PM) Going to the game tonight. Intrigued by watching Quintana pitch. Anyone have a scouting report on him? From what I have read he is of dragon and mayan god descent. His fastball has been known to literally start on fire and destroy bats, and his curveball will occasionally turn into green mist that will render a batter unconscious. KW put him on the roster out of pure fear. Hope this helps.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 25, 2012 -> 11:54 AM) Like Lillibridge's .931 OPS, which was easily the best against LHP of any returning player on the Sox (outside of Viciedo's 30+ ABs). Even during Spring Training, it seemed like Lillibridge was going to be playing a lot against LHP, as Ventura was having him bat 2nd. But anyways, this is about De Aza and I've really enjoyed watching him play this year. He has a really good line drive swing and makes a lot of hard hit outs also. If Hudson can get on base at a solid rate in the 9th spot, De Aza is going to hurt teams by hitting it in the hole between 1st and 2nd. fathom you know im teasing you, but come on now. Lillibridge is a bench player. De Aza may not be great or even all that good against lefties, but not many lefthanded hitters are. Lillibridge hasnt been able to replicate that success this season, and he has offered no reason to make them a platoon at any point in this season. Letting De Aza get at bats against lefties has been preferable. And De Aza has been really good this season. I am extremely happy to have him as the leadoff hitter, he can steal a base, hit for average and power, as well as drive in runs.
