BigSqwert

per Mark Gonzalez:

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 10:25 AM) Forget Kotsay, Soxtalk needs to DFA BigSqwert.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 10:22 AM) at the very least, why aren't beckham and kotsay swapped in the order? You don't want to mess with the mojo of Kotsay. You start moving him around in the lineup and we'll see his average dip from .200 to .150.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:59 AM) If iPhone users want flash that badly (most of us don't), I'd like to see the results of the official poll you took. QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:59 AM) you can jailbreak and have it. Something you admittedly don't even want to do yourself. QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:59 AM) Also, Flash games have to be rewritten for touch interfaces so playing them as is won't work very well, unless you like your hand covering the game you are trying to play. And you don't think with tens of millions of android phone users that flash games won't be made specifically for this demographic? QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:59 AM) Most episodes of online TV shows don't require Flash anymore, either. And many do. QUOTE (Y2HH @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:59 AM) unless everything goes perfectly, which almost never happens. It's working perfectly on my EVO so I'm very happy.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:56 AM) ...although Threets hasn't been bad, he's kind of the only choice to sent down, unless you want to carry 13 pitchers. I wish they were more aggressive in sending bad hitters down.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:51 AM) you get the game thread until they lose. If they win today its on you Can we just switch you as the first post? I don't want pitchforks at my house tonight if Kotsay blows the game.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:51 AM) Who is this Frazier guy? Called up last week

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:49 AM) The baseball gods had better not be pissed, thats for sure! Where are the rules for this? I haven't done a game thread since the Reagen administration.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:43 AM) I feel like BigSqwert is gonna have lots of splainin to do if they dont win We will win easily. I guarantee this or your money back. Plus if you act right now I'll throw in this nice Sox apron and oven mitt set!

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:40 AM) How does Kyyle feel about this game thread ? ;> Oh I dunno the rules anymore. The game is in a couple of hours and the lineups were already posted.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:40 AM) Exactly. Even though AJ is an absolute abomination offensively right now (about Kotsay's equal in that regard), at least he contributes by calling a good game behind the plate for a very good pitching staff. Additionally, you're right in that most people here want Castro to get a lot more chances at the catcher position even despite that. I guess I can see why Kotsay is still on the roster now, but he absolutely has ZERO purpose or reason to be on this team once Teahen is back. But sadly, I'm sure he still will be. At the very least give Castro more starts against LHP.

And what has Threets done to be sent back down? He's looked pretty solid so far.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 09:28 AM) Guess who's back? Back again. Kotsay's back. Tell a friend. Hopefully he starts contributing. We need to increase our lead over the Twins.

just went to Cedar Point a couple weeks back for the first time. Best roller coasters I've ever been on. And what an awesome view over Lake Erie.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 07:56 AM) If we're shut out, yes, I'd say we lost because of pitching. We lost because the other team flat out pitched better than us. Ok Balta. People would be complaining about our pitching in a 1-0 loss. That's a reasonable statement.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Aug 3, 2010 -> 12:58 AM) Is this available to all android users or just the EVO? The Nexus One already had the update, EVO and original Droid this week. Not sure on other existing phones but all the new ones coming out will either already have it or get the update soon after launch.

Cubs are really clicking right now.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 09:50 PM) Kotsay isn't going to cost this team a bunch of games. But he could cost them a couple of games, and as we saw in 2008, that can make all of the difference in the world. He's not a major league player right now, and simply put, there is no reason for him to be on the roster once Teahen is back. It's not really even an debateable point. Apparently for some people 4 consecutive months of playing absolutely terrible baseball isn't a big deal. I just don't get it.

QUOTE (Ranger @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 09:19 PM) but he isn't killing them and he isn't going to cost them the division. He is killing them and he might cost them a division. Take your Kostay blinders off.

QUOTE (balfanman @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 09:40 PM) I really do appreciate all of your input Ranger, but why can't Teahen play 1st base. Because we need at least one godawful player on the roster every single year that gets over-used for no apparent reason.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 09:39 PM) I can't be the only one who loves Tosh.0? Huge fan. Haven't missed an episode.

Just got the OTA Froyo update for my EVO. Flash 10.1 is awesome! Currently testing full episodes of Family Guy from Fox.com and they are running seamlessly. There's another good reason to go Android. Free online episodes of tv shows for the major networks that provide them. That and flash games online. Flash is working really well and Steve Jobs will never implement it.

QUOTE (girlslikebaseballtoo#26 @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 08:23 PM) Absolutely not. I love Chase with every fiber of my being, I would be with him as long as he was faithful to me and still treated me the way he does now. I was never saying you have to be married to be happy with someone ..I was just saying that if you really love that person I don't see why you wouldn't marry them. I would turn into a smurf for Chase ...smurfette is completely adorable! There's a whole segment of the population that isn't allowed to but that's another story.
