ugh

QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ May 21, 2009 -> 11:19 AM) Wow our defense sucks today. Not a good throw by BA. hope peavy isn't watching

QUOTE (T R U @ May 21, 2009 -> 01:43 AM) Ide imagine the Padres have had a talk with him about how much dealing him would help the club, and would appreciate if he accommodates that. I also wouldn't be surprised if KW has talked to him and slurped him as well. He will still be getting paid either way, and I really hope he reconsiders his NL stance and gives it the green light. Our bullpen is great, and at least we have a track record with the offense. Good point. I know he's made some mistakes, but I love the fact that KW is never afraid to aim high.

QUOTE (T R U @ May 21, 2009 -> 01:32 AM) I just remember seeing that, also don't know if that is true or not. would suck big time if this thing is held up by some preconceived notion about playing for Ozzie. He should remember this is the manager who let his starters throw complete games in the playoffs. Might be a good time for Ambassador Thome to pick up the phone...

QUOTE (T R U @ May 21, 2009 -> 01:28 AM) As hard as it is to believe we would get Peavy.. Why would they just scratch him from his start if he wasn't getting traded here? I hope that he reconsiders and waives his NTC to go to a team that wants him. Wishful thinking.. I still haven't seen that fact sourced, and why would they scratch him now when his start isn't until Friday?

QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2009 -> 04:58 PM) So yeah, Justin Verlander looks amazing. If he can regain form and be an ace, I don't see anyone staying close to the Tigers this year in the ALC. if all they were lacking was an ace, then I would agree.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ May 21, 2009 -> 01:04 AM) go to bed,wont happen if the source in the san diego clubhouse is to be believed, at least he said "it's something to think about."

QUOTE (JPN366 @ May 20, 2009 -> 11:04 PM) The thing is, the Padres aren't up against the wall to make this deal now. The timing for San Diego doesn't make sense at all. now is the time if you want to stay at 40 mil like the friars do. the longer peavy gets paid this season, the more over budget they're going to go. sounds like he's not going to wave his NTC. Too bad. Wonder where the knock on Ozzie and starting pitchers comes from? The way he handled Sean Tracy? Called out Javy for his lack of big game ability? Questioned Boone's manhood?

alexei is starting to crack me up. CORKAROO!

boring. i demand runs. now.

QUOTE (heimel @ May 19, 2009 -> 05:57 PM) D-train with a surprisingly solid outing. 6.1ip 0r, 1h, 5k, 2w. Pretty impressive against the Rangers. he looked better, that's for sure, but his velocity is gone.

win 6 in a row, get back to .500, then we look at the standings.

is it dickey time?

twins can put 3 on the board very fast. this offense is so f***ing pathetic. Baker should be long gone.

fields blllooowwws.

Hawk picks a weird time in the broadcast to issue condolences...way to bring it down after a 2 run dinger

tigers had 17 2-out RBI's in their series against the A's. And Willis is looking pretty good tonight. That team is clicking right now.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 19, 2009 -> 04:01 PM) He's available to pinch hit tonight and tomorrow night. thanks

any updates on Q?

i'd like to watch it again, because if memory serves me right there were a couple of times the Sox had runners on and no outs and got squat. I know there was a runner thrown out at the plate (Law?). The Sox definitely had their chances in that game.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 19, 2009 -> 12:05 PM) He's been awful on defense (as expected), and his hitting isn't going to be sustainable because he's gotten some crazy lucky stuff. He does still have some good speed though. nah, he's no gold glove but awful is too strong. he's made the routine plays and made a couple of really nice throws, especially for him. But I do like his speed too. Might be a better backup out there than weezy.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 19, 2009 -> 11:56 AM) him or Pods, flip a coin pods has been doing okay out there, i have to admit. but isn't it just a matter of time until he's injured? Does weezy have any options left?
