QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 5, 2008 -> 07:00 PM) Agreed, even though the more I watch the Twins, the more I think the best way to beat them is to have lefty relievers. liriano is looking better every start. and what the hell was that play? IFR?

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Sep 5, 2008 -> 06:56 PM) Final line for Poreda 6 IP, 5H, 2ER, 2BB, 9K's. 6-2 GO/FO any chance we'll see him in chicago this year?

that was a f***ing strike

come on detroit - "9 innings!"... remember?

KONG'S hot and Thome's fired up and cussing at the ump - both good signs.

this uribe fella...hmm

angel announcers were just talking about what a beautiful swing griffey has, then that

f*** yes

Soscia is dopey sometimes. They have a 17 game lead and he's going to burn his bullpen in a game he's clearly going to have a hard time to win.

they call him JUAN!

lineup... Orlando Cabrera, A.J. Pierzynski, Jermaine Dye, Jim Thome, Paul Konerko, Ken Griffey Jr., Alexei Ramirez and Juan Uribe

Players react...

from Quentin himself...

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Sep 5, 2008 -> 01:58 PM) Do the Angels still have (too lazy to look it up) Robb Quinlan. Cause if they do, he will be starting and is guaranteed for a big game, he always does well as Mark. yes - he's good for at least one xtra base hit

very, very curious to see how this team will respond.

i can't imagine anyone feels worse than this guy - CQ fought hard to overcome injuries and show what he's about. s***...i feel terrible for him.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 5, 2008 -> 10:00 AM) So what's the long-term prognosis for a fractured wrist? well, know this - it obviously wasn't picked up on x-ray, which means the fracture must be slight if it is indeed a fracture. They could only see it on MRI. And it appears that he was able to swing a bat and throw a ball with the injury, so it could be a 4-6 week thing where he stabilizes it in a cast.

side note: think it's time TCQ changed his stance?

shoot me

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 5, 2008 -> 09:28 AM) If you want a knockout blow for this team, take away it's best hitter. yep

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 5, 2008 -> 09:25 AM) This is really, really, really not good. agreed - if the results were negative it seems like they would've said so right away. Just speculating, but they're probably trying to figure out how long it will take to heal so they can make an announcement. again, just mere speculation.

the "breaking news" headline on the sun times site says "MRI results in on Quentin, Sox mum on outlook" sun times

i've given up trying to predict what the sox will do. but i do have a bad feeling we'll come out of that series in minny a game back, at least.

that is sweet
