QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 02:26 PM) Which would make him a lot like Juan, with an arm instead of a noodle. Played quite a bit in the OF in Cuba, so he's not a total stranger. That said, he's not likely to be a star in the field. I think there's a good chance he ends up at 1B, post Konerko retirement. Yup. And hopefully by that time, Walker/Thompson/Mitchell will be ready for corner OF.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 01:49 PM) Kazmir & EJax are just smoking the wrong s***. They need to call up Tiny Tim in SF and hook up with his dealer. That should turn their pitching around. Although Big Time Timmy Jim hasn't been the same the past two years, but yeah, that guy has some dope sticky.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 02:06 PM) Didn't Rios have a couple decent seasons, then finally got paid and has been s*** since? Rios is vastly overrated. He was ok in 2005 (his 1st full season), very good in 2006, great in 2007, even greater in 2008, horrible in 2009, very good in 2010, and horrible so far in 2011. So he was a very good player until 2009, and is basically unpredictable ever since. He actually signed his new contract before the 2008 season, his career best season where he put up a 5.6 WAR, and was worth about $25M.

Couple getting steamy during the riots....

So who is the 1st Hawks player to get traded off? Brouwer? Campbell? Seabrook? Hjallmarsson? Sharp?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 01:52 PM) Oh darn, is he going to have a weak arm and drop fly balls and be scared of the wall? Quite possible.

Is Hudson even cleared to play tonight? I figured he would be a little sore from all the dick riding that he has gotten from people at Soxtalk.

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 01:09 PM) "Peavy is expected to rejoin the Sox on Friday night in Arizona and be activated no later than next weekend" Wait so when is he gonna be back. Does that mean he's bound for another rehab start cuz it say no later than next weekend so not this weekend? Why would they want him to pitch another rehab game? Well, when is his 15-days up?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 12:28 PM) Are you insinuating that I just hate on White Sox prospects no matter what they're doing? If so, that's BS. I hate so much on our system because it's warranted. But what the hell am I supposed to say about Viciedo? Yeah, you want to see more plate discipline. But he's improved in that regard. He'll never be Barry Bonds or Frank. But that's pretty damn rare. Well you have said on multiple occassions that there is absolutely no one doing good in our minor leagues, to which I've responded "What about Viciedo? Reed? Petricka? Kuhn? Wilkins? and a couple others.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 10:46 PM) Ugh, hard to watch sucker punch. And on the phone no less!

QUOTE (Pale Sox @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 01:46 AM) You know that sinking feeling every time Juan Pierre steps to the plate, and you know the absolute best outcome is a bloop single? Now close your eyes and imagine that instead of Juan Pierre, it's Dayan stepping into the box with his quietly dangerous stance. He gets a fastball, and it looks like he's taking the pitch. Then all of a sudden you see lighting fast bat speed knock a line drive double to RF. This could and should be a common reality in our lives, and the fact it isn't is utterly disturbing. Thanks a lot, now I have to change my underwear.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 12:40 AM) Just looked at Tank's stats after being out of town for a week. He has a plus 1.000 OPS the last two months. He has a higher OPS on the road (and Charlotte is a hitter's park). He also has 47 RBI in 63 games, which is about 120 RBI over a full season. What f***ing more does a guy have to do? Kill Juan Pierre.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 12:19 AM) Thought this was interesting: http://www.pe.com/sports/highschool/conten...id.40083da.html Wonder what people here would have thought of us getting Martin. Would probably still hate the pick. But now that he is w/ Tampa, they would probably say it would have been an awesome pick.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:56 PM) If you are gonna do it, Saturday is the day to make it happen. Check out the career stats vs. Zach Duke: Dunn 8-17, 1 2B, 2 HR, 3 BB, .471/.550/.882 Pierre 4-24, .167/.167/.167 Yeah, but Pierre is faster than Dunn.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 08:22 PM) Any fluent Spanish speakers in the house? Ozzie just tweeted about fifteen f***ing times in Spanish over the last ten minutes. Google Translate.

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:47 PM) Kuhn has been amazing. Gotta get a look at him in Charlotte soon. It will be hard with Drew Garcia blocking him.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) Padres sent LHP Aaron Poreda outright to Triple-A Tucson. Poreda was designated for assignment by the Padres earlier this week and passed through waivers easily. He'll remain in the bullpen at Triple-A. Per Rotoworld How does Rotoworld know if he passed through "easy" or if he "barely" passed through? It's either he is claimed or he is not claimed.

Kuhn, 2/4, 2B, 3 RBI. Hitting .369 no big deal.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 03:11 PM) Fair enough. Ship him out. I don't discriminate. Gordon Beckham has been below replacement level for a year and a half now. I'm sick of picking on JP. I know he sucks. Now it's Gordon's turn. If by "below replacement level" you mean he provides positive "wins-above-replacement", then yes. 0.8 last year, and 0.8 this year.

3 runs in 36 innings and 0-4 vs. one of the worst teams in baseball. f***ing sad. God f***ing damnit.

We need a player who can drive a ball in the gap, so we turn to Vizquel? ....uhmm.......Maybe if we needed a bloop single somewhere....

3 runs in 35 2/3 innings vs. Minnesota? Oh lord.....
