QUOTE (SouthSidePride05 @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 08:07 PM) I won't jump off the bandwagon like other fans but I'm just being realistic. The way we're playing, it's gonna be ugly for a while. I'll still watch though, regardless of how painful it gets. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger!

QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 08:07 PM) Im sure Paul Konerko is completely unaware of the rules. Gotta wonder what he was thinking then...

QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 08:06 PM) I would have really liked this to be a 1-1 game. If only our 3rd baseman could throw to 1st. Or our 1b could be aware of the rules

QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 08:04 PM) Please leave then if you already conceded this game and tomorrow's game s***, there'd be like three of us left...

Sssshhhhhhhhhiiiiiittt

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 07:59 PM) Assuming the score stays the same, Peavy would have 3 losses, right? 2 1-0 games and a 2-1 game. Wow, that's rough. Now you know what assuming does...

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 07:58 PM) Sox going to summer Camp again tonight! I hate this bastard

The way our pen has been going, I'm giving jake the 8th

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 08:48 PM) Wood has risen to the occasion and made it hard on the Sox hitters. They might have to wait for a reliever to come in. Notice the sexual innuendo...

Fisted him into right field!

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 08:37 PM) Not saying they are going to lose tonight.............If Sox do I have 0.000001 faith in Gavin to keep Cubs from sweeping! We're going to get this one tonight

Shocked that stayed in here

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 08:32 PM) I think we're all sensing with another Gavin Floyd start looming, the danger of getting swept at home by the Cubs...if you looked at the pitching match-ups coming in, you would have given the first game to the Cubs, the second to Peavy and the third had to be a toss-up with how bad Gavin's been. Hopefully we can rally... It's 2-1 in the 5th...we'll be fine

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 08:30 PM) Probably not at his feet. He had to catch the ball and try to make a tag. Its pretty rare a guy misses first base. I went back and watched the replay when you mentioned it...it was incredibly obvious...he ran outside the bag by several feet to avoid the tag and PK was looking right at him. There is no way he didn't know he missed the bag.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 08:25 PM) I don't know if he saw that he actually missed the base. The way the runner went around it, he might have just thought he made a turn. He was looking right at him...just another instance of guys being space cadets.

Well, despite the Hudson bashing, I'm still putting that one just as much on PK.

The SP still remains the far bigger concern.

Anyone?

What I don't understand is why didn't Paulie just step on the damned bag instead of trying to tag him?

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 05:08 PM) sorry I didn't post earlier, we had a late Lacrosse practice last night. The definitions are sometimes used interchangably but they really shouldn't. From what I read there is no tear. The grade 1 strain means there is no tear. This tendon however needs to be handled very carefully. It is the anterior or front tendon of the rotator cuff. It is responsible for slowing the arm down when he bring the arm back during the windup phase and accelerating the arm forward during the acceleration phase. If there is a severe problem with the tendon there will also be some stability issues with the whole joint because as you raise your arm over your head the humerus slides forward in the joint and this muscle needs to absorb some of that force. The grade 1 is a good sign and the 3-6 weeks time frame is a good estimate. The crap about the MRI being being better than before is nonsense. If it was worse before, he wouldn't have tried anything in the minors. This is not a season ending injury. Once the inflammation goes down and the strength up he'll be fine. It does however have a direct correlation to his decreased velocity not so much from strength but pain. Yeah, I was just about to post all this too, but ptatc beat me to it again...happens every time!

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 18, 2012 -> 10:24 PM) What do you want your manager to do? You know how many hours they spend at the park? Ozz has time to f*** around. Like he said, let the coaches do the things they are paid for. The manager is the organizer. I wouldn't read scads of stats on the Internet either, if I were Ozzie. His track record suggests his style works. Oh Greg...you are truly something else...

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 12:05 AM) There you go again, dealing in absolutes and drama. Sigh...... Only the Sith deal in absolutes...

At this point, the 3b issue is the least of our problems. How about we find a guy that can pitch?

QUOTE (High Mileage @ Jun 18, 2012 -> 07:48 PM) Garza...? Luke Hochevar Bruce Chen Jonathan Sanchez Vin Mazzaro Luis Mendoza/Felipe Paulino I really like Paulino...let's see if he can stay healthy now...

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 18, 2012 -> 08:39 PM) One thing to think about is that about 75% of MLB pitchers have some degree of labral tearing. There may be an issue in determining its significance if something like that is present. Did you say labral or vaginal?
