The Ginger Kid

and he's still in the game because......

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 06:49 PM) And there goes that game. D1 just seems to get himself into a nasty inning in every start lately

i like fireworks

f*** - hawks down 2 now

no way Konerko is being given a night off unless maybe he's a little banged up? A friday night to boot.

Anyone else impressed with the way this team has stayed together despite the horrific play? I'm not looking for silver linings but it does seem like there are some real good characters on this team, and good chemistry to boot. I know it doesn't mean s*** if the team plays like crap, so you can save your breath there. I'm just saying it's nice to see that they still remain a pretty solid unit that hasn't given up on themselves, despite everything that's gone wrong.

does Quentin have options left?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 3, 2010 -> 04:07 PM) Their ERA's and WHIP are nearly identical in May. 4.76/4.79 ERA, 1.52/1.49 WHIP (Garcia then Danks). D1 pitched more innings, gave up only 2 HR while Garcia gave up 5, D1 walked more and struck out more hitters. The only difference is Garcia went 4-1 while D1 went 1-4. And I'm going to hurt you if you try to blame that on D1. I call it a draw. By the who pitched better in May standard, Mark Buehrle actually put up a 4.03 ERA and 1.31 WHIP in May. I wouldn't dare to that, given the weak run support all around. I don't think Freddy's a better pitcher, just pitching the best right now on our staff.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 3, 2010 -> 02:53 PM) D1: the pitching Danks disagrees. who pitched better the last month?

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 3, 2010 -> 03:07 PM) Add Trayce Thompson getting 4 pins on his right thumb when he gets surgery (luckally he won't be out the season) to the other injuries and this is shaping up to be a terrific season for the sox organization. At least Mitchell is saying that he's ahead of schedule and looks to be back by September.

pins in Teahen's finger?? damn, didn't realize it was that bad. out 6 weeks.

our best pitcher takes the mound tonight. And no, I did not mean to put that in green.

WIN

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 07:00 PM) Rangers announcers didn't even show the replay, was he out at 1st as well? good throw from 30 feet would've got him, instead it was bounced....

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 07:00 PM) Does Eric Byrnes' softball team need a LOOGY? that's my favorite post in a long time

if randy williams were released today, would anyone pick him up?

atta boy randy

dead zone vs. scott feldman = insult to injury

Cowley tweet: I assume he's calling Hawk "Cabana Boy"

I seriously thought that they would just go on a tear this home stand....I'm a f***ing idiot

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 06:17 PM) We need to trade A.J. at least before his 10/5 kicker kicks in. this is true

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 06:13 PM) I'm not sure why this game is pushing me over the sell barrier, but it is. me too, but wouldn't it be best to sell as late as possible to the deadline?

so...what the hell to do with Floyd??

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 01:36 PM) Well, as a team, the Sox are hitting .227 with RISP. That'd be pretty bad, but there is a bright spot; they're hitting .240 overall. So it's not just a situational hitting problem; it's a sucky hitting overall problem. seems like it's been the case for years

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 07:30 PM) It was over two weeks ago. Twins have played a tougher schedule than we have, and now they have Kubel starting to heat up. Plain and simple, they're a better team than the Sox. and so are the tigers - i think it will be a great race. The Tigers pitching could get a lot better and you have to be impressed with how Leyland is handling their rookies.
