Swishy wants to stay in the lineup.

That 2-0 pitch was an odd call.

:uhoh TWO RUN THOMERUN

First mention: 7:30:41 PM

Way to get us started, Jermaine.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 07:25 PM) Is Hawk really upset? It's REALLY odd that he has yet to mention it.

At this rate, Joe Mauer will be 8' 4" by 2010.

Have they even mentioned Griffey yet? Hawk hasn't found a place for him to play yet.

QUOTE (southsidehawkeye @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 05:16 PM) I think this is probably going to be right in the immediate future, but eventually I bet one of them will have to bite the bullet (likely either Paul or Swisher) and end up basically sitting out the end of the season when we're making that final push for the playoffs (and hopefully during the playoffs). Im in kinda a holding pattern on this trade, I love that we have Griffey - like many others have said today he is one of my favorite players ever and Im thrilled he is part of the Sox (even if its just for the rest of this year) - but he is coming to a team where he really doesn't have a position to take. On the other hand - with Griffey, Dye, and Thome on the same team there is always a chance one of them goes down with an injury. If that happened we'd all be quite happy with this trade. Yup, it's difficult to see all of those guys making it thru the end of the season injury free.

Mark Gonzalez looks like the guy that runs the Mexican car shop on Weeds, minus the gray hair.

GET EM DANKSY!!!!

Crazy lineup tonite.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 04:18 PM) where's the "excited because we added one of my favorite players even if I'm not sure how it helped us" option This is me.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 04:08 PM) Im going to have to save that quote along with several other gems Ive collected over the years. May I see this collection?

MLB.com might want him to take a new picture soon. It looks like he just ate a cat in this one.

QUOTE (Gregory Pratt @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 02:13 PM) I'll say that morale has nothing to do with the ability to hit a baseball, throw a baseball and catch a baseball. Although that's a general principle, and not related to Griffey. I like this deal. We didn't give up anything. Wow, we totally agree.

QUOTE (YASNY @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 02:11 PM) Collect the $50 from him, then take him out to dinner using the money. Will be the best $50 you ever spent. Well, you could do that or get some cheap strippers for you and him. He'd probably be happy either way.

Ken Griffey is clearly the next Geoff Blum.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 01:50 PM) They're referring to Brian Anderson They didn't say DF.

For all the things that aren't right about this deal, the guy still has one of the sweetest swings in the history of baseball....

Hanrahan was a Sox fan growing up in Des Moines. Loved Frank.

WILLIE HARRIS HAS EIGHT HOME RUNS THIS YEAR?!?!

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 30, 2008 -> 08:12 PM) 28 HR, 83 RBI, 49:62 BB:K, .277/.377/.552/.930 Too bad Jerry Owens got hurt.
