I hate lexi, I wish they would send him bad to castro

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 6, 2011 -> 04:09 PM) We have too many guys in our lineup that think "HR" and not "Hit". Beckham, Konerko despite his good avg, Dunn, Ramirez, Rios, Quentin, even f***ing AJ had his lift and pull streaks We need some regular f***ing LD hitters, this bases loaded 0/1 run bulls*** is getting old That is soooo true, good post

QUOTE (Lemon_44 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 06:55 AM) Rios is obviously dis-interested and dogging it this year. I've never seen a guy making about 15 mill look so unhappy. I tried to like Rios and thought he was avictim of bad luck because he was hitting the ball right at people. But it sure does look like he has shut it down. Would this be a feasible trade? Sox pick up a good chunk of Rios's salary and ship him and Danks to StL. for Rasmus. Am I under-valueing Danks and over-valueing Rasmus? Or both the Danks for Rasmus and just DFA Rios. The next few years an OF of Rasmus, Q, and Viciedo sounds good to me. Toronto got someone to bite on Vernon Wells contract, maybe the Sox can find a taker for Rios. Why Rasmus Carrer stats ain't much better

Wow 1 measley run off Bruce Chen....

Some pinch hitter

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 10:39 PM) Okay, we still have some bullets to use with Teahen, Ramirez and maybe Rios. Gordon with 3 bad at-bats after ripping a liner the first time up. Is sustained progress possible for Dunn, Beckham or Rios? Man those are more like blanks....

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 10:02 PM) Who was playing well? Certainly neither Ramirez, nor Rios. The funny thing is that none of those balls were hit hard. A topspin single through the hole, a gork shot to RF and another seeing-eye single. Only 6 hits through 6 IP. Meanwhile, we failed to knock out a starter who's 0-6 with NUMEROUS chances with RISP. Hey peter gammons, i was talking about lillibridge

Peavy hit the wall

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:52 PM) sure glad Ozzie sat Lilli for 5 straight days when he was on a hot streak. That'll teach him. That's the problem right there, why sit a guy who Is doing well to play slugs? Then expect him to produce after sitting 5-6 days

Pierre again

I think he was wondering if any other team had

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:21 PM) I wonder if any team in MLB history has started a hitter at #3 in July who had an average of .170 or below with over 200 previous at-bats that season? Good question, I don't think so

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 11:41 PM) Pasqua struck out way too much for the comparison to hold merit. Viciedo figures to hit in the .270-.315 range. Pasqua was pretty much all or nothing. I disagree .260 to about .285 tops I think Carlos lee is the best comparison. I just hope he isn't that dumb on the base paths

Balk off win!

What happend gameday froze???

3-1 and he k's

Wild pitch!!

Well that sucked

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 08:43 PM) Rios is hitting .220. Ramirez is hitting .275. One's worth trashing, the other's acceptable. I'm fine with that, I've trashed him myself, but you can't go trashing a player and defend the other with stats of the past

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 08:35 PM) 25 MLB GM's would claim Alexei Ramirez were he to be placed on waivers. 0 would claim Alex Rios. Who cares? Really you guys try to defend some players and trash others, again rios is sucking big time I have no problem saying it, but I don't pick and choose with stupid past stats

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 08:33 PM) Francouer woulda been a way better addition than Dunn for 1/15th the cost. Francois hits right handed

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 08:25 PM) Because Alexei was the best defender in baseball at the most important position on the field last year, and he was our best clutch hitter in 2008 until he got tired at the end of the season. Ramirez has never equalled his rookie year offensively, but a 750 OPS is nothing to sneeze at. Rios is at 600. That's a big difference. And he hasn't played well for nearly a full-season. Alexei has been one of our 3 best hitters the first three months of 2011. And Rios has made about 5X as much money as Alexei from 2009-2011. I do't give a hoot about 2008 or last year, what have you done for me lately? That's what counts, yes rios has sucked but Lexi hadn't been far behind

You guys give rios s***, but look at Lexi, he gets allergy with men on base

Dammit lexi

QUOTE (forrestg @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 12:05 PM) I can help with the ridiculous expectations; how about a right handed Dan Pasqua. Pasqua had a good arm , lot of power. Awful fielder
