They mentioned it on the broadcast. Was that the source of your revelation?

Btw, Zambrano was in the stands today. Was a few rows in front of us behind the home dugout. Shook some hands and took a couple pictures with people but pretty low key. He stood when the WS scored the first run in the 6th but did not clap or say anything, fwiw.

What's weird is it doesn't look like season ticket holders can take advantage unless you just buy an additional ticket like any regular ol' Joe. Kinda sucks.

THAT HELMET IS HUUUUUGE

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 30, 2010 -> 07:36 PM) Who the hell is 29? He looks like a cartoon character! Their backup catcher. I agree and noticed it as well, the helmet looks huge on him. Looks like a child.

When is the Omar Visquel experiment over?

Wow, classless Jays fans continue with a "You suck Rios" chant. Good thing he left the Jays willingly for more money and wasn't released or anything.

Did anyone else notice it said "First home run of career" ? Who the heck is running the show? Cubs fans?

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 1, 2009 -> 12:53 PM) Orlando Cabrera makes his return tonight. I for one hope he gets a nice round of applause his first AB. All the clubhouse stuff aside, he helped the Sox win a division last year and always, always played very hard. But I don't think it's going to go that way - maybe a fifty-fifty thing. Meh, only a single year. I'll watch him a little differently than other players, but clapping? I'd probably require a little more commitment than a stopgap for his next assignment.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ May 21, 2009 -> 11:04 AM) Who wouldn't move across the country for Portillos and Lou Maggiano's? haha, what?

About a dozen people have posted that the trade is "done" and we're waiting for Peavy to agree, we get it....stop posting the same info

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ May 21, 2009 -> 08:49 AM) I actually think that's fair. Giles is just now starting to hit, and his numbers will experience some severe inflation in the Cell. Best case scenario for Poreda and Richard's combined numbers could be Peavy, and Getz remains something of an enigma. AND Dye? That would be redonkulous.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ May 21, 2009 -> 08:45 AM) I think this deal would be made with the long term in mind. Giles would be a placeholder in RF for the season and bat lead off. Peavy would solidify the top of the starting rotation with Buerhle and Danks and mean that we only are relying on the minors for one starter next season from Marquez, Hudson, and whomever else. I can see KW signing Abreu in the offseason to fill the gap in RF when Giles moves on/retires. So the deal sounds like Dye, Poreda, Richard, and Getz? Peavy and Giles ?? That sounds awful to me...

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 01:06 PM) First time in MLB history teammates have hit "century" (100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700) homeruns in the same game. Much less, back-to-back.

QUOTE (Whitewashed in '05 @ Apr 11, 2009 -> 10:21 PM) The fact that he's with the Twins has already set in with me, but some moments in that video made it sting like when I first found out he signed with them. I was so happy to see that Indians walkoff as its one of my favorite regular season moments ever. Some of my other favorite moments in that video were the shots of him taking the team picture with the trophy and ofcourse the ending with Hawk put the great finishing touches. They gave him a louder ovation when they were announcing the lineups at the stadium when he was stretching than when he came up to bat. I can't wait for him to go to a different team so he can be in a different jersey, which if he stays healthy and has a good season, will happen. During stretching there wasn't a whole lot of people in the stadium yet :-/

I was at Friday night's game, his first back as a Twin. They did a little montage before the game during warmups and said "Thanks for 9 seasons and a WS championship." The guy was blushing and clearly embarrassed (in a good way). My sister next to me teared up. Standing ovation. The whole ball of wax. Unfortunately it was pregame, and super cold, so stadium wasn't too full. After his first at-bat though, no more ovations :x.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Apr 7, 2009 -> 03:25 PM) At the current pace, Thome will hit 162 homers this year with 486 RBI's......that would be a good season! Haha, I thought the same thing!

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Oct 2, 2008 -> 01:54 PM) I thought Uribe had that one. Is this sarcasm? I am restricted to gamecast at the office.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Sep 10, 2008 -> 09:30 AM) I'm going to this game tonight. With these two pitching I should be home by about 8:30 Sox win - 3-2 Hope you watch a better game than I was at last night :x

This is going to be another rough game.

I was at tonight's game and other than Dotel, the Red Sox looked overmatched.

Wait, there was an ejection? What happened? I haven't been watching.

1) Who was the biggest snub among AL hitters? 85.0% Jermaine Dye, White Sox 7.0% Aubrey Huff, Orioles 5.2% Nick Markakis, Orioles 1.9% Johnny Damon, Yankees 0.9% Hideki Matsui, Yankees
