QUOTE (smalls2598 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 11:31 AM) Fun times may be ahead for Interleague play, per Rotoword: White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said Thursday that Adam Dunn will get starts at first base and potentially the outfield during interleague play. Well that would be one way to get Pierre out of the line up.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 11:32 AM) Really? People would be saying that Edwin Jackson is a real pitcher? Besides his short stint with the Sox and one season a few years ago, he's been nothing but mediocre or bad. If Hudson were struggling here, absolutely they would.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 11:31 AM) Whatever happened to him? He's doing his own thing. Married, has a new kid. Working hard, keeping a killer IU hoops blog. He is on facebook.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 11:29 AM) Haha, and if they kept him he'd just be a young guy struggling. If they traded Beckham, it'd be the same thing for him. So since Hudson was traded, he automatically gets the same reputation as McCarthy or Anderson. And everyone would be b****ing about us missing an opportunity to trade for a real pitcher when we could have won the division.

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 11:19 AM) Throw these people into the wilderness Wilderness, Canada, what is the difference?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 11:12 AM) I'd agree in theory. Except we weren't trading for a better arm. Wait, Edwin Jackson doesn't have a better arm than Dan Hudson? It is pretty early to be drinking that heavily.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 10:34 AM) It didn't seem that bad, he pretty much said he was trying to be to perfect around the plate and just started attacking when with the D'Backs (something Coop should've fixed with him while here). And he didn't say anything negative about the Sox. That is all that Cooper preaches. I'm guessing the other part of Hudson getting traded is that he wasn't listening. Then he gets dealt and figures out it might be a good idea to start listening.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 10:01 AM) Yep that is the matchup. And if Hudson has the better game the game thread will be even more unreadable than usual. I predict 150 posts by fathom alone.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:54 AM) Forgive me, I had like 5 minutes... That is awesomeness.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:36 AM) Genius. Thanks! Can we get just one Juan Pierre bashing thread too? There was supposed to be only one FWIW.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:32 AM) I bet I know what this thread is going to morph into... The whole reason I posted the article was to keep it into one thread...

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:20 AM) If you have Allstate's mayhem coverage. They should make one of those commericals for rioting Canuck fans. "I'm a spoiled brat Canucks fan..."

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:11 AM) I agree completely and that is exactly what I was thinking as AJ came up representing the tying run last night. He is hitting the ball decently from an AVG perspective, but it's pretty terrible when your 5 hole guy can't drive in a run or pick up an XBH or BB to save his life. Right right. CQ had a brutal AB, PK got a little unlucky, but then in that situation to have AJ is just like welp that's your ball game. It does suck to have AJ there. Especially when you look down and see what Dunn and Rios have given you this year.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:06 AM) Not saying there are glaringly better options but AJ as the 5 hitter is so damn miserable. It manifested itself last night in the 9th inning. Eh, that whole string was awful. 2nd and 3rd with no one out and you got nothing out of your 3-4-5 hitters.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 07:59 AM) Yea Charlotte could use another arm/starter. Dolsi and Zaleski are terrible. Doesn't really sound like Kazmir is any better right now...
