SI I don't think this was posted.

OC can't bunt. 1 out.

It's amazing sometimes what a bunt will do! I hate those commercials.

Young. Way too young.

He needs 3.1 ab's per team game which means he should need 350. Bradley should not be on that list as far as I can tell.

I love it when Hawk cuts DJ off.

Western Ave to 90 west. Follow 90 west to U.S. Cellular. Roughly 13 hours. Pretty easy

Dotel K's Granderson.

Thome with a sweet DP.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 5, 2008 -> 09:12 PM) Ours involves clearing your hips with a dip in the back shoulder and the hardest swing you have ever seen. No I mean he said that was the Sox minor league philosophy.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 5, 2008 -> 08:08 PM) He gets the job done, but I would like to see OC less pull happy. When he was with the Angels he would go to right field with 2 strikes. This year he is pull happy. Oh, speaking of which, when the Sox played the Twins, Ron Coomer said that the minor league philosphy for hitting was to make contact out front and keep your head down. I don't remember anyone posting that and I forgot until right now so...there.

QUOTE (MarkMook @ Aug 5, 2008 -> 07:49 PM) Ozzie sometimes seems to get down on young players: Anderson and Fields come to mind. It does seem a shame to have Fields up with the big league club and not playing everyday. Hello and welcome.

QUOTE (JFields27 @ Aug 5, 2008 -> 01:26 PM) What else would you dial 911 for .. Sadly, I have the answer... Yahoo

Apparently it's only 2.5 to 3 feet long which supports the raccoon theory. For some reason it looks a lot bigger. Newsday

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 3, 2008 -> 05:53 PM) We are a better team then what we have showed the last 7 games or so. Let's go on a winning streak You're never as bad as you look at your worst...

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Aug 3, 2008 -> 03:19 PM) Konerko is really really bad Takes a hanging breaking ball for strike 1, swings at a fastball in the dirt and grounds out. lol I don't see how he isn't in AAA getting regular at bats against pitching that might help him get his timing or whatever back wouldn't he have to accept such an assignment? It's not like he has option.

Maybe nobody wants him for the value KW expects?

Just got home to see this. Great. What makes it worse is that they probably will come back then lose like 8-6.

It's a strange story so here is best overview: Foxnews I assume this is fake since the only picture is the one in the article and nobody knows what happened to it. But what the hell, I'll post it anyway. Actually, there is one other picture here

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 04:33 PM) It's hard to turn a game around when your pitching staff can't consistently shut down the opposition. Our pitching staff is really struggling shutting down the opponent after we score. That's what the entire season comes down to. We can all b**** at the offense, but the sorry state of the pitching staff is going to end this team. Remember the beginning of the season when the staff looked like one of the best Sox pitching ever? Shut down relievers, great starters...

QUOTE (tommy @ Aug 1, 2008 -> 10:27 PM) So I missed the whole game because of work again, but nice to see Junior contributes right off the bat. What i don't know is how did he perform out there in CF? Than again, Javy (by his line) locked the Royals so I bet Junior didn't have a chance to show off? Can anyone spare some info on how he looked out there? He didn't move much in center. He didn't really have any chances either.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Aug 1, 2008 -> 10:01 PM) Its great to see Griffey not swinging for the fences on those 2 out rbi singles.....man he is going to be big for this team if he stays healthy me thinks. It might be best thing for him not to be the center of the offense.
