Not good, kid isn't used to throwing innings.

Who's playing first for Paulie?

WTF

Let's win this thing already.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 21, 2010 -> 08:12 AM) Send down Kotsay and bring up Harrel or Torres. On a side note, didn't anyone on our side realize there was a very slim chance of getting last night's game in? Shouldn't they have just warmed up Pena and given him the start? Seems like a huge blunder to let Jackson warm up and pitch to a batter knowing that a huge storm was coming that would last several hours. We can't be giving up a guy in the rotation like that in the middle of a pennant race. If you're into conspiracy theories, Joe West was the crew chief for last night's game.

So double header tonight, any word on who starts the second game? How does it affect our rotation schedule, should we worry?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 20, 2010 -> 09:25 AM) Yes and check out my edited post above. Need more proof? Wow Rios def not having a great second half, what can I say, nothing will surprise me anymore when it comes to this org infatuation with Mark freaking Kotsay

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 20, 2010 -> 09:22 AM) Still don't know why there is no interest in Laroche. He's having a great 2nd half like he always does. He'd be a perfect left-handed DH to rotate with Carlos and Jones and can spell Paulie at 1st. What am I missing here? Has he cleared waivers?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 20, 2010 -> 09:05 AM) that sounds dirty

Go get'em Jax!

I know some of you already gave up on a season but I highly doubt Kenny starts 'teasing' about selling guys. 4GB with 6 solid weeks of play. No way. EDIT: of course a lot can change in the next 10 days or so, if we tank completely I could see some trades done before the waiver deadline.

Haha, well I meant they better put up hell of a fight and don't piss down their pants.

There still is about 6 weeks of baseball to be played, gentleman, I hope they don't sell their skin for cheap.

So has everyone gave up on the season already? 41 games to go (without tonights game), we need '31-10' kind of run after we beat the Twinkies tonight, to win this division. (97 wins takes it? if not I tip my cap) SOX: 3 at KC 3 vs BAL 3 vs NYY 3 at CLE 3 at BOS 4 at DET 3 vs KC 3 vs MIN 3 vs DET 3 at OAK 3 at LAA 4 vs BOS 3 vs CLE

Free Teahen? eh?

Pierre LF Ramirez SS Rios CF Konerko 1B Quentin DH Pierzynski C Jones RF Vizquel 3B Beckham 2B Floyd P

Rosenthal and Nightendale say Lee to Braves is a lock, Lee willing to waive no-trade clause and Glaus moves to bench not 3B like earlier reports suggested.

I've been watching/following baseball for some time now but can't answer this question and didn't do any research, is baseball a game of stretches? For example, White Sox playing an awful baseball in April-May, but come June-July they had us pinch ourselves with the way they were playing. Let's leave the whole 'playing NL' discussion out of it. Twins were playing an awesome baseball in April and May and while many here already gave up on the season some of you said: Sox will finally start to win games and Twins are playing over their heads and will cool down. My point: Sox are playing bad baseball right now but will turn it around and have a good September while Twins will cool the heck down and are due for some losing. Just my two cents.

I agree its on the offense, Danks, Floyd and Buehrle will keep us in the game.

Coop tossed.

If we win today, come from behind win maybe it sparks us for that road trip.

BOOM!

Clutch Alexei.

The thing with Morenau is that he's had previous concussions from playing hockey in Canada, while I think he'll be back eventually, its def a big deal over there.

Maybe Slowey can no-hit A's but Twins will tank like Sox did after Buehrle's heroics?
