DO NOT MOVE ALEXEI FROM THIS SPOT IN THE LINEUP EVER.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ May 25, 2009 -> 09:04 PM) Someone mark it.. Hawk declares Getz will be a "solid player for more than a few years for this organization." I'm not saying he won't be, though.. He's been saying that for a month and a half now.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:59 PM) Crede was pretty damn good in 2001. Rowand got benched in CF for Carl Everett in 2003. When Garland was 26 he was a world champion. Crede was 11-50 in 2001, with 0 HR and 7 RBI in 17 games. Aaron Rowand already played 180+ games in 2003 before he got benched. Garland was drafted out of high school.

Way to go Danksy.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:54 PM) Most players don't even get 150 MLB games to prove they suck. Maybe the Sox gave up on guys like Owens and Terrero too soon. Mike Caruso hit .300 as a rookie and then sucked. The Sox gave up on him. That was just stupid. Oooooooh, good examples!!!! Good thing we gave up on Crede, and Rowand, and Garland, who all came up and sucked too. I can play that game too.

Josh Fields has played 1, count it, 1 FULL Major League Baseball season, 164 total games in his career to be EXACT. /thread

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:51 PM) How long does Fields have to suck before it can be determined he's not a championship quality 3rd baseman? More than 164 MLB games.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:48 PM) Personally, Quentin should still be put on the DL. f*** that. He's starting to hit with some authority. Wrap that ankle up tight and put some Dr. Scholls in his shoes.

Paulie hasn't looked good in his 2 at bats tonight.

UPDATE: CQ WAS SCARED MORE THAN HE WAS INJURED, PER KW VIA HAWK.

QUOTE (shipps @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:46 PM) Nice jimbo. You act like you didnt do the same bulls*** throughout the whole Peavy thread. ^ That.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:44 PM) I don't care if Danks and Floyd put an ERA up over 9...they need to stay in the rotation. Danks screwed himself in the first by caring too much about Figgins. When you score 3 in the first, you don't worry about the runner there. I'm aware.

1+ IP, 7 ER for Santana. Ouch.

Fireworks in Anaheim for JD lol.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:42 PM) I absolutely do not want to trade Danks. He's having a s***ty year. He's young. And he didn't look good against the Twins last week, even if he only gave up 2 ER. He didn't look good in the other 1/2 of his 8 outings when he gave up 0, 1, 1, and 1 ER?

JD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aybar was literally millimeters from catching that.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:36 PM) How can you deny that Danks has sucked? Sure, he started off good, but that only means hes been THAT much worse to make his ERA over 5.00 at this point. Pitchers that suck don't give up 2 ER or less in 5/8 outings. 3 bad outings through a month and a half and he sucks? Why don't we just trade him too? I'm sure Broadway or Egbert or Carrasco or Contreras can do much better.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:32 PM) In my opinion, It's a completely true statement. Fixed.

FIELDS WTF! That was the slowest, longest tag I have ever seen on a SB attempt.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:30 PM) Danks sucks this year. What a horrible year all-around. What the....I need to avoid SoxTalk for a few months.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:29 PM) What terrible pitch calling by AJP. He's doing such a terrible. job. And Pods showcasing his weak arm, as Abreu wasn't even at 3rd. Alexei cut the ball off, the throw actually looked decent.

QUOTE (Reddy @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:23 PM) hey man, i've practiced for years to learn how to do that. show some respect. My apologies. It's most definitely a legitimate talent.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:22 PM) What? I wasn't trying to be an ass about it. I say that about everyone who I see have an injury like that. It's more like I'm saying "and he's going to be on the DL". Whatever, the way it was worded rubbed me the wrong way. Doesn't even sound like anything a fan would say.

QUOTE (ChiSox420* @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:21 PM) How do you know that? This is SoxTalk...where people talk out of their asses.
