QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Aug 11, 2012 -> 03:24 PM) Surprised they didn't give Danks another start after the HR. Lefty on the mound.

Took a bit of climbing after my cold streak when my average dipped down to a season low .606, but I was able to bring it up and end the year with a .674 average. 29 hits in 43 AB.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 13, 2012 -> 01:01 PM) its in your head Yup. I borrowed a bat from a friend, and then went on a massive hot streak to end the season. I ended my season 11 for my last 12, with like 6 doubles. Then I had my Chili's softball tournament last Saturday to conclude my summer of softball. I play SS for that team. I made ONE throw to 1B all day in our 3 games, and it hit the runner in the head and he had to leave the game w/ fear of concussion. LOL WHOOPS. Our dumbass woman playing 1B was standing on the OTHER SIDE of the 1B bag. So the runner had to run IN FRONT of her to get to the bag. Well, my rocket throw from behind 2B nailed him right in the dome, and he dropped like a sack of potatoes.

So Wise is pretty much going to take Danks' role? Dunn will be our 1B, Viciedo our new DH, and Danks our new LF, and Wise our new backup OF.

It's interesting how Snodgress was alright in Low-A, and just dominating High-A. Must not be much of a talent level jump then? He is giving up HR at a faster rate, but that's about it.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 10, 2012 -> 03:30 PM) Only 3 Cubs position players don't have errors in the game they are playing right now, and they are only in the 6th inning. The errors on the Stubbs' steal was hilarious. The throw to 2nd got past THREE Cubs players, and rolled towards the CF wall. LOL.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 10, 2012 -> 07:26 AM) Is she pitching against us? If things go right, she'll be catching.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 08:55 PM) Trayce with 4 hits tonight. Hovering around .300 in the second half. Hitting .310/.356/.549/.913 post ASB.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 08:19 PM) Don't know anything about the quality of the opponent but nice seeing Hector pitch a good 5 innings. I read where he's going to be working on throwing 5 pitches so if he stuck to that he pitched great not relying on his best pitches. I think Hector looks to be a very capable #5 starter in the bigs, maybe even a #4 guy. I like his arm and his stuff.

QUOTE (Cali @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 03:46 PM) Just out of curiosity how many new albums do you guys buy during the year? (And you know what I mean by "buy") I'm at 19 right now. But I have some more nerdy music friends who get 50+ sometimes... The last CD I bought was Lupe Fiasco's "The Cool", and that was early 2009 I think. Before that, it was Nelly's Sweat/Suit, which was.....2004 or something?

September is loaded with albums I want to hear. G.O.O.D. Music, Lupe, Ludacris, Wiz, probably a few others I can't think of right now. Pumped.

Jarret Casey lost his no-hitter in the 6th. Only blemish until then was a Leighton Pangilinan error. Speaking of no-hitters......the Knights are 3 more outs away from being no-hit by some guy with an ERA of 4.14 coming in to the game.

3/3 now for Trayce. AVG up to an almost respectable .255

Leighton Pangilinan may owe someone BIG TIME tonight.....

Walker is 1/2 so far, Trayce is 2/2 w/ 2 RBI.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 06:01 PM) I don't hate the Cubs, but I am a little jealous of their huge fan base and the hyper attention they receive. I don't hate any team really. The only team I really hate is the Heat. Same. I don't hate the Cubs, but I hate the attention they get, for no reason. I'd say I am jealous of their exposure, and angry they've done nothing to deserve it. But they are not in my list of hated teams. It's hard to hate a team that sucks, and sucks against you. If they were really good, I'd root for their failure, or if they dominated, I'd root for their failure, but neither are true right now so I have no reason to pay attention to them. And for those of you who HATE the Cubs, you should be ROOTING for them to finish the year really strong. Because even a hot August/September will leave them short of the playoff spot, and WON'T get them a top 5 draft pick. Right now they are sitting with what, the #3 or #4 pick? That's what any Cubs fan SHOULD be rooting for, a better draft position.

1) Red Sox 2) Yankees 3) Twins 4) Royals

QUOTE (danman31 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 11:05 AM) My one problem with DayZ is that you're so lost when you start off. I wish they would give you some help because if they really want to make it hardcore the character would have some experience with the area and whatever events led to that point. I watched some video of it and thought it was too intimidating. Looks really hard. I have a coworker who plays it, and I've watched him livestream play it. It has quite a few glitches and problems that I've seen.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 11:12 PM) When did this happen? Twins game vs. Nick Blackburn.

Seriously? It didn't even look like Dyson hit him. How'd he get a concussion from THAT???

Has anyone ever hit for the True Outcome Triple Crown? I think Dunn still leads all categories for it.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 12:13 AM) Remember when people thought Daniel Cabrera was going to be good? Dude had a nasty arm. Him and MacDougal could have been great.

MOTHER f*** THE ROYALS.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 7, 2012 -> 10:39 PM) I'll take Chris Getz. I can't believe we traded him for Mark f***ing Teahen. Ugh. Chris Getz is garbage. I'm pissed we ever gave Teahen an extension, not the trade we made for him.
