Ok, I did enjoy that Minnesota commercial, no jokes.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 02:42 PM) 1-2-3 inning, Mark seems to have settled. Do you trot him out there for the 8th? He is at what, like 96 pitches? Nah....

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 02:39 PM) Nick Swisher trades, thank you very much Yeah, I agree the worst trades in recent memory by Kenny IMO have been.... 1) Nick Swisher trade 2) Nick Swisher trade 3) Javy Vazquez trade (if Flowers does not pan out) 4) Mark Teahen trade

lol. For a second there I thought Kotsay was going to have a multi-hit game. Kotsay is such a tease!

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 02:34 PM) Why don't they just move the fences back if they're trying to build a team based on pitching, speed, and defense? Damn straight. Draw a yellow line across the fan deck and back of the bullpen.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 02:29 PM) No matter how you try to build your team, Ozzie, we will still live and die by the longball. And congrats Beckham!! 4-4 Which, being in this ballpark, is not out of the question. It's not like we are in Petco, I don't know why Oz just doesn't realize we need beasts who can hit 40 HR a year, not s***ty slap hitters who try and make just enough contact.

Finally Beckham!

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 01:55 PM) We should thrown Buehrle yesterday. He never does well on extra rest. It's the curse of national attention for Buehrle. Throws a no-hitter in 2007, then sucks. Throws a perfect game in 2009, then sucks. Makes a ridiculous play in 2010, then sucks. If Mark Buehrle is FEATURED as the lead story on Baseball Tonight, then we have a problem.

African-American greek night? That's quite a specific demographic, Brooks.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 01:49 PM) i think we win this one. calling it now. It's sad that overcoming a 2-run deficit in the 3rd inning is a bold statement.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 01:45 PM) That's awesome. I'll make sure to note that in my journal. Also note that I have Cuddyer too, so there is another double and RBI for me.

Well, the only positive for this game for me so far is that I have Mauer and Morneau on my fantasy team....

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 01:39 PM) Podsednik has .429 OBP and .817 OPS, only 2 stolen bases You stats are sooo 2 hours ago.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 01:36 PM) I haven't paid attention. What's he done so far? Hitting .368 with a .455 OBP and 3 SB, 0 CS.

Well, at least we know Alexei can bunt Pierre over to 2nd. Maybe he should be in the #2 hole.

Mark, is that you?

I CALLED THAT s***!!!

Atta boy Carlos. 2 out double. Now Kong needs to continue the game 1 plan by jacking one out.

Seriously Beckham is POP UP city right now.

So, what insane play will Mark make today?

He's got some moves.

I have a friend who hits w/ Jones in the offseason. He told me to watch out for Jones because he has major power, and I guess my buddy is right.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 12:21 AM) Instead of buying an iPad I decided to buy Apple stock and make money off all the people that actually do buy them, since I really don't have much use/desire for one. So far so good. I'm not an Apple fan or hater, but they know how to make money. Apple likes to keep everything closed and make everyone do things through them, and to control everything. Google on the other hand is the opposite of Apple, they want everything to be open and free, and to Apple this seems like insanity but it's been working wonders for Google so far. Google is too expensive to invest in for most people, though. Also, am I the only one that has a Zune and actually likes it? I have a Zune HD. I love that thing, and so do all my friends who own iPods.

1:05 start on WGN I don't ever start gamethreads, and the Sox don't ever really win. Seems like a match, so I will give it a go...... ^^^She's a girl, and even SHE knows the Twins suck!

I have had a Dell XPS desktop since 2004, and now my Dell Studio laptop since last July. Had only had 1 problem w/ my desktop when I got the BSOD, but I also used to download a TON of crap on my computer, and most likely it was a virus.
