You've got to give him the 9th.

This is as efficient of a game you will ever see by an SP.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 05:06 PM) And they almost tied the game last inning. Well it's 1-0...wtf are you watching?

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 05:04 PM) It's the 3rd time through and they were starting to get hits. Maybe leave him for the 7th but they better PH for him They have 5 hits!

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 05:02 PM) I'd like to see Jones/Crain/Reed right now for 7-8-9 The Feathered has only thrown 60 pitches. Why the hell would you pull him?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 05:01 PM) Someone needs to tell Flowers that when Escobar and the pitcher bat after you, you should be trying to hit a homer instead of taking numerous pitches. That was still a s***ty call.

This ump just does not like Tyler. Thats nw 3 bad strikes he's called on hm.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 04:58 PM) And why is that? That's a black and white play where nothing else is affected. Because we just benefitted from it

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 04:56 PM) Wow. Grow a pair and toss him. What in the hell was that. That's a huge call. Gotta give him his two cents worth.

It didn't look like the umpire was even looking at Treanor.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 04:51 PM) Thought Treanor left too early. Not the best throw from Rios there, should have had Treanor at the plate. He left early...wow!!! Got a break there. Great catch by someone with the coaching staff. Was a pretty damn good throw. Flowers needs to block the plate.

Way to pick him up, Dayan

Great AB, Gordo

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 03:49 PM) Lilly needs some consistent at bats to become last year's Lilly again. Send him down a month. Not sure he has any more options.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 03:46 PM) Has Robin become an advocate of the Sunday lineup? Certainly not like Ozzie was.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 03:41 PM) Why isn't Uribe still a member of the White Sox? Because he signed contracts to play baseball with SF and LA.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 03:39 PM) Lot of no shows for a "sellout" today. LA

I can't wait to see the Feathered hit...I'm predicting 3 homers

Danks' success makes me even more on the fence about dealing Tank.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 03:28 PM) Somebody said they absolutely hate AJ. Paulie accused of loafing. WTF. Why don't you go find DA and have some beers.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 03:24 PM) OK dad. Lots of people on here were blasting AJ and Paulie the other night. I mean, cmon. This message board is full of venom not just me hating on Dunn/Rios last year. Lots of people deserve "lessons." There is nothing wrong with criticizing players. You have a habit of blindly picking heroes and villains, with no actual mind for statistics, facts, or reality in general.

The Feathered.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 03:15 PM) I would have thought there was zero percent chance I'd ever like Adam Dunn or Alex Rios. I salute both of them. Great seasons. Which should be a lesson to you.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 02:00 PM) I think Kenny reads my posts. I was suggesting Zach start in the game thread last night. Yes, you have been suggesting he move to a starting role for quite some time.

QUOTE (scenario @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 01:34 PM) Makes saense to me. Doesn't appear to be a viable bullpen option at this point. So, give him a couple starts to either: Showcase him...Or to stretch him out in case Floyd/Humber continue to struggle. And if you're going to do it... Why not against a weak ball club like the Cubs? I, unlike most, actually think Zach can succeed as a MLB starter. So I am not disappointed with the notion at all. It's pretty clear pushing him into the mop-up role is not one he is going to flourish in right now, so try him in a different role. If he fails at that, then they can put him in Charlotte as a starter.
