@jonmorosi: Cardinals designate for assignment shortstop Pete Kozma.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jun 25, 2014 -> 10:15 AM) I don't really get the hate for el cañón. We knew it was coming after the Cuban Missile and Tank nicknames, but I guess if you don't like em all then I see the hate. I think we should stick with the nickname Abreu likes, Pito. I dont hate el cañón, but i dont love it either. I think Hawk is forcefeeding it too much

everytime Hawk says it, I think he is calling Abreu a canyon

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Jun 25, 2014 -> 09:12 AM) Hopefully he doesn't become today's version of Grant Hill. Grant Hill is such an extreme example though. That guy ruined his career for the Pistons in a playoff run. He had no business playing on his ankle and continued to do so

I will be selfish and wish he does the derby once and is done with it.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 25, 2014 -> 09:03 AM) I can ban you now. power hungry

I think we should change the swear filters to change Belisario to Blowasavio, permanently

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 25, 2014 -> 08:14 AM) Anybody who is repeating something Bruce Levine has said is already losing. It's still the worst nickname in Soxtalk history. i believe we need a poll for this

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 25, 2014 -> 08:03 AM) I'm sorry buddy, but we have a new winner for worst nickname in Soxtalk history. TUC cant claim that one, I heard Bruce Levine saying it yesterday on the Score. edit: unless, of course, TUC is Bruce Levine. And if that is the case, my brain will break

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 24, 2014 -> 04:41 PM) I never heard that report. I'm sure Brock would do the match if they were putting the belts on him. Oh yeah, and the paycheck. And... http://officialfan.proboards.com/post/10830433 Haha, busted

Sadness momentarily ended

Robin, come on. Let Webb figure this out

Why must it be demonstrated repeatedly beyond a shadow of a doubt that Belisario shouldn't close? Even if he gets this save, this is just not acceptable for 9th inning

I'm pretty sure Alexei is made of adamantium

I think I'm gonna be sick

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jun 24, 2014 -> 07:38 PM) Don't look now but Tyler f***ing Flowers is about to be passed in OPS by De Aza. That is Tumbleweeds to you

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 24, 2014 -> 07:38 PM) So which one was it? It was a pea

QUOTE (scs787 @ Jun 24, 2014 -> 07:23 PM) De Aza very quietly splitting .375/.426/.583 (1.009 OPS for those who don't wanna do the math) in June. Too bad he loudly batted .185/.255/.359 in March/April and .161/.237/.195 in May

Tumbleweeds

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 24, 2014 -> 06:58 PM) Shouldn't you be running almost as soon as the ball leaves the catcher's hand? Yea, but the hesitation comes when you have to make sure the throw goes to second. Catchers will fake the throw on a suspected double steal and get the runner at third in a run down. De Aza just doesn't have that top speed anymore for that play, to make up for the hesitation

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 24, 2014 -> 06:47 PM) Good Alejandro: Good defence followed by RBI single, steal second, third on throwing error. Bad Alejandro: awful jump on the double steal. He had to make sure the throw went to short. I just don't think he was the right guy for that play, he isn't fast enough, good jump or not

Gonzalez looks like BP, the Sox need to get to him asap

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Jun 24, 2014 -> 06:02 PM) 3,720 to 1 Rough estimate

QUOTE (Mr. Showtime @ Jun 24, 2014 -> 03:08 PM) Bill Wirtz blocked any talk of that way back in the day. Now, why nothing has happened in the last 2 decades? Can't explain that. Google "Bill Wirtz Wisconsin NHL". Ah, I can totally see that. I will check this out after work, thanks
