QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 11:22 AM) Haren's looked pretty awful this season...tons of pitches up in the zone, and his velocity is down a few mph. Good, then he should come in on the cheap.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 11:11 AM) We'll take a LaRoche with a side of Haren please... LaRoche + Haren would be nice.....

QUOTE (WSoxMatt @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 09:36 AM) Cincinnati Reds have reached out to Boston to vote in Cincinnati native kevin Youklis, in exchange for Boston fans voting for Votto...Ive voted for Paulie many a time, but it seems he is really up against it here God that's tough because I figure many Cinci fans will be voting for Votto, so they might be persuaded to vote Youk. While on the other hand, I am sure Rockies fans know that "CarGo" doesn't deserve it, and won't win it, so I doubt they vote, which means we won't be getting as many Rockie fans to vote Paulie as Reds Fans will vote Youk.

I'm hoping that Hud The Stud can be at least as good as Freddy or Buehrle have been.

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 01:12 AM) he'll have to learn to do it at least occasionally if he's every going to truly dominate. Once people figure out that they don't have to throw him anything over the plate, he will go down in flames otherwise. I disagree. As I stated in the game thread, he seems to actually have a pretty good eye at the plate. I think the reason he does not walk much is because he makes contact with everything, and puts it into play. If you take a look at his at-bats recently, you will see he is actually taking some balls, but it's hard to take a walk when you are putting the ball in play all the time.

This has the makings of a fantastic season of "The Club". Of course, it won't matter for me since I don't have MLB Network.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:03 AM) did you mean "2 birds" to mean injure the umpire and catcher on one pitch? Yup.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:02 AM) but apple puts out good products. Not a good comparison. Yeeaaaahhh....ummm......no comment.

2 birds Andruw!

QUOTE (BFirebird @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 11:59 PM) Totally off-subject, but I have NFL Live on at my hotel and Tim Tebow leads NFL jersey sales since April. How sad is that? A lot of people will buy anything made by Apple too.

QUOTE (beautox @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 11:26 PM) I really don't want KW to give up hudson or viciedo. Also loving Lillibridge looking like a mlb contributor We don't need Adam Dunn anyway, we got The Bridge!

FEAR THE BRIDGE!!!!

HoT Fire!!!!!!

For never taking a walk, Viciedo has a pretty good batters eye it looks like. Just seems like when he makes contact, the ball is in play, so he never gets the chance to draw 4 balls.

Dunn hit HRs 18, 19, and 20 tonight. Yowzahs!

Ack, The Bridge collapsed.

Freddy escapes the 10 inch plate and gets a 1-2-3 innings. Booyah!

Morel. 1/3 with a BB. AVG at .266

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 09:20 PM) Yes you've proven your knowledge of baseball is so much greater than mine. You know it all. I already have given you credit for that. Congratulations on knowing so much more baseball than me. You don't know how long I played the game. You don't know s*** about my knowledge of the game compared to your esteemed knowledge.

By the way, did anyone else notice that Carlos Quentin's cousin is the State Farm guy?

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 09:09 PM) :notworthy :notworthy :notworthy It's perfect.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 09:02 PM) Good news: Twins lose.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 08:54 PM) Has anyone see The Bridge? Where's that confounded Bridge? I think it fits pretty well.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 08:53 PM) Damn, talk about a late start. They are going to be dragging tomorrow considering they will be playing ball about 13 hours after the game tonight ends.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 08:48 PM) No offense, but you're never gonna be a professional nicknamer. Did I mention that I made up "Q-uperman", the nickname of which was wrote about in multiple Chicago newspapers, had me and my sign on Baseball Tonight, and was on the jumboscreen at the game 3 times? Maybe you forgot.
