Thank you AJ! 2-1 Sox.

Heh, Oz on Edwin: “Last time he pitched against his former teammates he pitched a no-hitter so I expect the same thing (Wednesday),” manager Ozzie Guillen said.

Leadoff double is not a bad way to start.

He gets him. If Lucas can give us one, maybe two more, I'll be happy.

Oakland ties it up, though can't be overly worked up about things so far. Last two innings he's been throwing strikes.

Let's get another double play.

MUCH better inning for Lucas.

First big league K!

GET HARRELL SOME MORE RUNS

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 07:43 PM) Wow, this is pathetic. Zero runs allowed thru two.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 07:41 PM) Afraid of the bat I don't think he's afraid of the bat. I don't think he knows where it is going.

Harrell looks like he's scared someone may shoot him if he doesn't pitch as fast as possible.

Alright Lucas, swing those balls around and put down the A's this inning.

Q hadn't been hit with a pitch for a while. OK, AJ, help your pitcher out!!

It'd be swell to have an Adam Dunn or something on deck after Q here.....

Nice, no runs.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 07:15 PM) Nice job by PK there. I'll say one thing about Harrell, his fastball has a ton of movement. He's throwing really hard right now, so he's probably overthrowing. Lucas has hit 95 already tonight. He won't be long for this club, more than likely, but he could be pitching to be back in a month.

Way to get the double play ball, LH.

Get em Lucas!

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 11:11 AM) Flaxx and Tex have both descended on the unsuspecting Windy City and will be in attendance at tonight's game. It will likely be my only Cell visit this year unless until we make the postseason, so I demand a Sox winner. Your gift is Lucas Harrell.

QUOTE (qwerty @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 02:10 AM) This makes the sox severely worse going forward. A trade like this would be a large knock against kenny williams and the upper brass. Trading hudson for a one and a third years for a terrible pitcher? I doubt he ever lives up to the hype he has always had surrounding him. Jackson would just about have to put up cy young winning numbers while we have him retained to even be remotely worth hudson. Reason being? If jackson pitched that well... he is booking with no hesitation. The flip side is he pitches mediocre to bad. If that were to be the case, which is highly likely based on his past, it was no contest, clearly a foolish one sided trade. Say hudson is just a four or five for the next 6 seasons. There is much value in cheap, dirt cheap, back of the rotation type starters. I can't see hudson being worse than a five era type guy, someone who just gives you a chance to win, on a decent basis. Let's say garcia. We have been highly fortunate to have a fifth starter doing what he has done for us, which i have more than seen taken for granted this season. Swinging doors at the back of the rotation generally means a nightmare, the more tightly wound the rotation is, the better chance of success. This would arguably be the worst trade kenny williams has ever made, if it were to happen. I call baloney. post.....more.

QUOTE (beautox @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 12:43 AM) I wonder if something like Lillibridge, Gilmore and Griffith would be enough to land him. If it was, Big Puma would have been starting against the Mariners by now.

Last year's Big 12 Defensive Newcomer of the Year in trouble..... I'd bet Bryce Brown ends up at Kansas State.

And the Tigers lose. Verlander clapped for him from the top step of the dugout.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 25, 2010 -> 08:28 PM) I'm not attacking anybody either, but it would make threads more remarkable (and amusing) if people that call for heads would say whom they want to come in. 100% endorse
