QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Mar 10, 2011 -> 03:24 PM) Teahen homer, defender goes through the bullpen gate Lol, seriously? Are you listening to the game on the radio or something?

Infante with a nice 1-2-3 inning.

EDIT: I have no idea why I put 3/5 as the date, but could a mod please edit that? Game is in the 4th inning, but no one has started a thread. Humber pitched really well. 3 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K. Threw only 26 pitches in those 3 innings, 19 of them for strikes. Not much for the Sox offense so far. Vizquel, Milledge, and Teahen all have hits. Vizquel's was an RBI double. Viciedo has drawn a walk on a 7-pitch at-bat! Bottom 4th, Sox lead 1-0.

Ok, well it says the game today is on CSN....but I'm not seeing it...

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 9, 2011 -> 10:00 PM) Anyone watch the Daniel Tosh: Happy Thoughts comedy special?? I really enjoy Tosh.O but I thought it sucked. There were some funny moments but overall it just did not make me laugh that much. I didn't think it sucked, I just don't think it was anything close to his special "Completely Serious". That, to me, is my favorite stand up special of all time.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 9, 2011 -> 08:43 AM) My goodness. This is one of the worst rap albums I've listened to in my life and I've been listening to rap since 1983. I want that 60 minutes back. What a waste of talent. Lol, that's quite dramatic. You must be a lil wayne fan.

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Mar 9, 2011 -> 04:49 PM) Someone sum it up for us folks with no time, please! or MLB Network!

Sucks to see they cut Leesman. I thought he was pretty decent when I saw him pitch a couple days ago.

So you are telling me that being gay is bad for your health? Interesting.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 11:23 PM) Viciedo can hit, but to get excited about how anyone is hitting on March 8th is really stretching it. He simply asked if he was getting hits of major leaguers, and I answered. I wasn't making a statement.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 08:55 PM) He would have to accept the assignment as well, and considering the glut of teams who could use another decent bat in their lineup, I'm sure he'd much rather be playing in the majors than in AAA and the Sox would be forced to eat the $10+ mill owed to him. It's not a realistic scenario. Teahen is stuck on the roster unless someone wants to gamble on him. I thought he has to accept the assignment when a team tries to send the player directly to the minors without passing through waivers, and if he doesn't agree to the assignment, he has to go through waivers before he gets assigned, that way he has a chance to get picked up by another MLB team. Is that wrong?

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 06:51 PM) In this scenario where does Teahen go, AAA? Possibly, if he passes through waivers and no one wants to claim him.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 05:24 PM) With his lack of defensive skills/experience, the abundance of DH's on this team, and the likelihood of other RH hitting OF players on the bench (Milledge or De Aza), it's hard for me to believe that Viciedo getting 3 starts a week would be worth an extra win to this team even if he hit well. Abundance of DH's on the team? Dunn, Teahen, and Quentin are the only defensive liabilities, and plus, I am operating on the idea that Dayan replaces Teahen on the 25-man roster.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 04:28 PM) I think the last two of the season are against them but I could be wrong. I'll just look it up..... We play them on the 28th, and then the last two games of the year. So I was close.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 05:00 PM) What makes more sense for him though? Consistent playing time in AAA in the OF, or one start per week in Chicago's outfield. Makes more sense for him to go back to AAA to play everyday, IMO. I agree, he needs to be in AAA OF, but I think if he did make the team, he would get 3 starts a week or so between RF and DH when a lefty is pitching.

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 04:47 PM) Stefan Urquelle! But yes. oooohhh. The cool version of Steve Urkel?

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 04:46 PM) Have Viciedo's hits come against major league pitchers? Well, he got 2 hits off Felipe Paulino today, he is a major leaguer. His 3rd hit was off of Eric Stults, another major leaguer. He got a double off of Joe Martinez. He has 50 career innings, but is more of a AAAA guy I think. Got a hit off Jensen Lewis, who is a major leaguer. Another hit off of Jess Todd, who has 28 career innings. Those are from the past 2 games, so yeah, most hits were off of major league pitchers.

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 04:44 PM) Does anybody else think of this guy when they say Stefan Gartrell's name? Jaleal White?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 04:36 PM) But Ozzie said he has to be fair to Teahen. Yeah but we are ALL IN, therefor we don't have time for Viciedo to develop in the minor leagues when he can help the team this year.

Viciedo GUNS the runner out trying to go home! Just a GREAT throw on a 1-hop to the catch, perfectly on line and strong. Good god, this kid has to make the team at this point.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 04:29 PM) What to do with Dayan Viciedo. We have him controlled for 3 more years following this one? We need to have him on the big club. I think we only have him for 2 years after this one.

And JorDanks with a 2-RBI double! He smashed that one to the RF gap. Viciedo, Flowers, and Danks are REALLY impressing me this spring....

Another Viciedo at-bat, another Viciedo hit. RBI single. He is HOT FIRE right now!

Beckham inside-out's a double down the 1B line.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 01:02 PM) Don't they have three games left against Detroit? I agree it's a long shot, but crazier things have happened.... Yeah, I think we have like back-to-back games w/ them coming up soon, and then the last game of the season I think is vs. them.
