QUOTE (daa84 @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 09:06 PM) picked this up from motownsports.com ....who knows if its true...."Dickerson on radio with the claim the Dunn has cleared waivers...." So that means that Rizzo is free to trade Dunn wherever he wants to? I wonder why the Sox didn't try and claim him... ?

Did anyone notice it was Linebrink's birthday? Hope this year brings less suck.

QUOTE (J.Reedfan8 @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 11:48 PM) I find it funny he said this, yet ripped Nick Swisher when he was here for almost the same thing. (clubhouse stuff didn't come out till after he was traded and I still don't even buy all of that) You wanna talk about "luck" Ozzie? Swisher had the worst luck in a season that I've ever seen a white sox hitter have in quite some time, yet you had no trouble keeping it real with him sucking. On another note, looks like Dayan WILL PLAY tomorrow. Why? Did Kotsay allow him to play tomorrow? Or is Kotsay going to DH, and Viciedo will play 3B?

G-Force!

Winning run on 2nd for Tampa with 2 outs, and Longoria at the plate....

QUOTE (robinventura23 @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 09:25 PM) That's Floyd, not Floyf. You sure?

84 K to 23 BB by Rienzo in 72 2/3 IP.

Tie game! Longo scores on single by Dan Johnson. Suck it Capps!

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 09:02 PM) Longoria with a lead-off double. Advances to 3rd on fly out.

LOL at my Dbacks friend. He texted me gloating about Hudson's debut, and I told him how I figured Huddy would do good, he is a good young pitcher, ect. Then just now I text him about Jackson's debut, and all he can say back is "Yeah, he threw a no-hitter too, but he still sucks". I reply "Yeah, he walked 8 in that no-hitter, but he only walked 1 tonight. And no walks are the key to his success", to which he replies "Yeah, he will be decent once every 5 starts". I told him "well, he is 1/1". And essentially the conversation continues with me explaning how I didn't download Hudson's start, even though it was against a s***ty Mets offense in a pitchers park, ect, ect, ect. He's an idiot.

Matty Ice!

9 pitches this inning, and 9 balls, 0 strikes.....

Umm.....what's going on here? Don't ruin EJax shutout too.....

Damn. Would have been nice to see EJax have a 0 walk outing.....

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 08:19 PM) Ozzie appears to have written a script on Kotsay for ESPN to read. "He controls that clubhouse." CREEPY. He controls the clubhouse with his 'coon eyes.

QUOTE (PlunketChris @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 08:13 PM) If we haven't settled on a nickname for EJax yet can we please consider Action Jackson?: Stephen Jackson owns that one.

I would like to see Mr. Christopher Sale pitch the 9th inning vs. Avila and Kelly.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 08:08 PM) Baker is making Tampa look foolish. Tampa hitters missing his offspeed stuff by a foot. It's August, aren't they due to get no-hit, perfect gamed, or just flat dominated?

Ok. So, 91 pitches. Does he start the 8th, or go out on top and with a shutout performance? I run him out in the 8th and pull him if anyone reaches.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 07:56 PM) A straight Danks-esque change woulld be deadly. ....... QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 07:55 PM) Danks needs to teach EJax how to hone a change-up. He could be deadly with a great change-up.

Danks needs to teach EJax how to hone a change-up. He could be deadly with a great change-up.

77 pitches through 6 IP. At this rate, he could go 12 innings!!....oh wait, this isn't Arizona.

s***, Kotsay singled.....

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 07:31 PM) Slightly offtopic, any idea on what team claimed Papelbon ? Tigers.
