And apparently he hates shows like Kate plus 8. Dick.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 04:32 PM) Anyone getting an impression that Sale might be getting groomed for Sox' closer of the future? No. He has too many good pitches to be wasted as a closer.

QUOTE (VAfan @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 04:25 PM) To my mind, the value in the Manny deal is that he gives a HUGE mental boost to a team that really needed it after the repeated bullpen meltdowns in late July and August. Judging by back-to-back rallies in the 8th and 9th innings, I think the deal has already shown itself to be of value. I think the SOX believe they can win again and catch the Twins, and that's half the battle. We've already seen a motivated, focused Sox team go on a tremendous tear. With Manny on the team, the chances of it happening again are much improved. Plus, teams will pitch our guys differently with Manny in the lineup. And once he gets his timing back, Manny himself will start to rake. I like the cut of your jib.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 04:08 PM) I did that once way back in grade school for long division. Stumbling into the right answer doesn't mean you actually know what you're doing. We won the game! How can you criticize Ozzie?

Sounds like the suspect whacko has been shot.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 03:15 PM) I mentioned that in the catch-all earlier. If you're interested...here's the cached webpage that appears to be his legitimate list of demands. I know it's wrong but the wording on #2 made me laugh.

Kubel and Fuentes banged up and most likely not available tonight. Hopefully that means a Tigers win.

A Detroit 2 game winning streak would be more than welcomed.

Happy birthday young man!

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 02:17 PM) That's a really tough question actually. Not sure I would unless he has another 2-3 years with us. He has been extremely steady, but never had a massive year in his career other than this year really. His 2006 was very good, but nothing spectacular. Are we talking about the same guy?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 02:14 PM) Yes. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 02:16 PM) Absolutely. Yeah I agree it's a pretty obvious choice.

Looking down the road, is it a forgone conclusion that we'll see a picture of Paulie on the wall with a statue of his on the concourse?

Do we need to donate more for a better server?

We have to retire this .216 hitter.

Tying run to the plate.

Damn. Walks the #9 hitter.

he gawn!

LMAO Has anyone seen his gameday photo?

Sale!

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 01:43 PM) How much playing time would Jones be good for? I'd take him over Q next year, but I'm not sure he could play more than 100 games. I'm just worried about September for now. Carlos looks lost at the plate and on the field.

Ozzie is a maniac if he trots out Jenks.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 01:39 PM) Carlos Quentin, 810 OPS Andruw Jones, 800 OPS I think we might have passed the Rays the past month for not having the worst DH numbers in the AL. Did anyone answer my question from before regarding these 2? I'm personally done with Q.

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 01:37 PM) Maybe Ozzie will roll Kotsay out to the mound, you know, just to get him some work.

Who gets the 8th?
