Poreda sent down. Torres on his way. Per Mark Gonzalez.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 01:26 PM) actually somewhere in Chi-town now. Milkman came back to the fold Then I better watch out walking in dark alleys. He may decide to pounce on me with a poorly fashioned cane.

Somewhere in the North East milkman is punching a wall... Yeah Yeah Yeahs replace Beastie Boys at Lolla

Weeds has been pretty solid so far this season. Entourage...meh. Why did they have to introduce this new guy at the agency? Who cares about him.

Why the f*** does Scott Linebrink pitch in every goddamn f***ing game!?!?!?!??! He f***ing sucks

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 03:56 PM) Wise over BA is the stupidiest decision in the KW era and total BS! It is like KW is telling fans FU! Totally. It would be similar to sending Pujols down for Timo Perez.

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 03:48 PM) Totally agreed, it f***ing disgusts me... but there's nothing we can do about it. Sure there is. We can continue to b**** and whine about the same thing over and over and over and over again until we're blue in the face.

Great. Another Wise thread. This isn't getting old.

I'd be ok to use Dotel or Liney in a package but not both. Our bullpen isn't as good as Hawk would make you believe. It'd be a ton worse if we lost both those guys.

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 02:58 PM) On a brighter note... TCQ IS BACK!!! There's one!

I look forward to reading this thread after 2 hours. It will probably have 45 pages of Wise bashing with 3 or 4 comments mentioning the return of Quentin.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 02:51 PM) To pinch hit for whom? Great, so we keep a sub .200 hitting crappy fielder around to possibly pinch hit for Nix or Fields on the rare occasions that they're playing? At this point with Q back how often were you expecting Wise/BA to be getting ABs where it ultimately mattered in the grand scheme of things?

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 02:49 PM) Who cares about Anderson's hitting? Wise can't hit either and has actually hit worse than Anderson. The question is defense. They both suck at hitting, and I wouldn't want either one coming in to pinch hit for anyone except maybe each other. But who would yo rather see coming in as a defensive replacement for Q every night, Anderson or Wise? Couple of other factors to consider are stealing a base and bunting. I know Wise is better at stealing but they both pretty much sucked at bunting.

So now that we have replaced a pile of crap in the batting order with TCQ, how devastating will this offense be going forward?

Now that this move has been made I'm still shocked that with this payroll the best we can do at 4th OF is Wise or BA. There has to be something better out there in the scrap heap.

Well at least we won't see much of Wise anyway with Pods taking over in CF.

So good news and mediocre news. Wise should have been sent packing.

Damn. You guys need to start using spoiler tags.

LOL. Like Kenny is going to call Buster Olney and tell him exactly what he's offering to a team.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 12:56 PM) I think the best way to handle these sorts of things is, if in the course of investigating a serious accident, they find that the driver was distracted by something like that, there should be a circumstance of aggravation attached to the charges. Something that makes it more serious, with stiffer penalties. Problem is proving it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 11:07 AM) No, he hasn't been "The same" since he went to NY. He's 1 step below where he was with the Twins, which is still really, really good. Basically, he's progressing exactly like a pitcher should; his best seasons were when he was 25-28 years old. He can't help if their bullpen has been lousy.

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 12:42 PM) I hate when box scores aren't specific about game stats. LMAO

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 20, 2009 -> 12:25 PM) I just watched "Spies Like Us" again on TV. Brilliant 80s comedy. ...and Doctor.
