QUOTE (Felix @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 11:25 PM) ¡Olé! (there are massive, impossible to ignore questions about whether he's worth the hype, but damnit, there's no time for negativity) When did Minnesota draft Justin Beiber?

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ May 30, 2011 -> 07:27 PM) Anybody else really excited for "Gettysburg" on the history channel tonight? I went back and watched it finally. It was all right. I expected something a little more Historyish from it, but I got what I feel like would be the Hollywood version of Gettysburg, complete with the dramatic bullet entries, crazy bloodsplatters, and extra-disgusting limb destruction. Eh.

QUOTE (Real @ Jun 2, 2011 -> 12:47 AM) people will come back to earth about lillibridge if ozzie plays him everyday, there's a reason he isn't an everyday player, he will get expoooooooosed quickly I'm sad to admit I agree with you. I don't think it is any coincidence that Lilli's best streaks have come while platooning. I think he is going to be a very solid 4th OF/5th IF type of player, but not so much if he starts.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 06:28 PM) Alexei's totally not a homer pick. Cabrera's having a nice offensive year, but Alexei's better on D. Agreed. Alexei deserves legit consideration for the starting SS spot.

Black Jack ranks up there with Buehrle as guys who got by on an amazing amount of nights with no stuff, but still found ways to win. He was tough as nails.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 06:46 PM) Nice work.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 04:12 PM) Dueling sweeps in Chicago today. White Sox>Red Sox Astros>Cubs It looks like turn back the clock to 2005 day.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 05:23 PM) Uhm...of course he is. Ozzie is too loyal. Howsabout some credit for Ozzie for getting Lilli into the perfect match ups? Nah.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 07:53 PM) That's a bit funny. I wonder if Robin's number will ever be retired. It should be.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 04:01 PM) Also, the argument goes that the US economy got plenty of benefit by not losing another 1M jobs in late 2008/early 2009. They also placed some tight controls on executive bonuses and pay at the companies, so unlike the bank bailouts, it's not like it was used to finance billions in bonuses for the people that f***ed it all up to begin with. That three million jobs number reminds me a lot of the 100,000 lives number used before Libya.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 04:06 PM) 38 38 40 40 40 40 46 There was no predicting Dunn would s*** the bed like this, and I still expect him to get out of this funk. Which is exactly why all of the "outrage" over his contract is BS.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 03:56 PM) Don't people argue that Ventura was one of the greatest college players ever? Why did he last until the tenth pick? The school of thought was that he was going to hit for a high average and not much power. Plus he was defensively challenged at that stage.

SUCK IT BOSTON!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 03:07 PM) A couple of runs would be real nice here. Thanks Pauly!

A couple of runs would be real nice here.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 03:02 PM) Is Jesse still unavailable? From todays Trib Right spot Jesse Crain, who left Monday’s game after getting struck by a batted ball, had a softball-sized mark above his right hip but was OK, he said. “Hit me in the right spot,’’ Crain said. Guillen kept him out of Tuesday’s game because of his busy recent workload.

Come Sale away with me!@

QUOTE (kane0730 @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 02:51 PM) Sure wish Sale didn't have to game Gonzo last night. We'll see what each of them learned from last night.

Sale warming.

Need nine outs here.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 02:39 PM) You never want to see that Nope. Especially for a guy struggle to try to hang on in the majors.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 01:22 PM) For the record, he sits mostly around 90-91 without much movement. You can only get away with that with good location and keeping batters off balance. And for the most part, Humber's done that. That isn't below average either.

Rich Hill seemingly paging Tommy John from the sounds of it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 02:35 PM) I think the size of the house changes every time. Not that I have heard.
