QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 3, 2009 -> 04:53 PM) Oh and he would literally be one of the worst fits for a #2 hitter out there. The guy would k 150 times. irrelevant though.

Uggla expects to be traded. What would the Marlins want? Package around Alexei + Flowers/Danks? Becks moves back to SS, Uggla to 2B obviously.... 1) Beckham SS 2) Uggla 2B 3) Quentin LF 4) Konerko 1B 5) Pierzynski C 6) Jones DH 7) Rios CF 8) Teahan 3B 9) Kotsay RF ? Or maybe we give them one of Danks/Floyd instead of Alexei and keep Alexei at SS, Becks at 3B, Uggla at 2B, and Teahan into the OF?

Assassins Creed 2. That's all I need to say.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Nov 19, 2009 -> 10:29 PM) Dodgers fan telling Matt Kemp to play more shallow, Kemp look back and shrug the fan off. Promptly dived missing a ball in shallow centerfield (theshirt 13 inning craze fest). Also heard Michael Jackson died. I was at the game. I remember getting a text saying MJ died, and we listened to the news on the drive back. Was a day game I believe.

I was there for Beckham first ML hit vs. the A's. Do I win?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 19, 2009 -> 06:58 PM) So what was the joke? It was a laffy taffy joke that I had read on the way to the game... What do you call a bear in the rain? A DRIZZLY bear!

I got another 2...... I was in the skybox for a game, walked out at the end of the game, and saw Scott Merkin standing outside my box on his cell phone, I waved and said "What's up Scott", and smiled and waved back and continued his phone call. And then last year I was sitting right next to the bullpen. The whole game I was trying to get Linebrink, Jenks, and Thornton to notice me or give me a ball saying "tomorrow is my birthday!!" (and it really was). They never paid me any attention. Then as Jenks was starting to go back down to the bench after throwing in the pen, my buddy and I yell out a joke to him. I figured he was ignoring us, but as soon as we said the punchline he looked up at us and starting laughing. My whole section enjoyed the joke and were shocked that Jenks acknowledged us and laughed at the joke. Poreda was also in the pen and I said "Aaron! You are my favorite pitcher!" I was not expecting him to turn around and say "Thanks buddy". I then had no idea what to say once he gave me attention, so I just blurted out "We are friends on Facebook!" and he gave me a thumbs up. lol.

Well, the Sox/Cubs fight in 2006 was pretty cool. As for off the field stuff, I saw a lady get nailed with a foul ball, and then taken away on a stretcher.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Nov 19, 2009 -> 04:21 PM) C.J. Retherford is 4 for his last 36. (for anyone who sucks in math, that pencils out to a .111 average) OT: But Jose Tabata.. I love that kid. Very good discipline hitter (comming out of the Yankees org) for his age and a good lookin spect. Nice future over there for the Bucos. So does he play for the Yankees or Pirate org?

Danks now 2-2 with 3 RBI, and a walk Morel is 3-3 with a 2B, 3 RBI And its only the 4th inning.....

QUOTE (Sec101Row1 @ Oct 22, 2009 -> 10:53 PM) I stopped by Camelback just to see the park when the Sox were out of town last spring. I told the guy blocking the entrance my son and I wanted to check out the park, he said pull right in and park by the Indians team bus (no charge). After walking around for a 1/2 hour I bump into, not 1 but 2 Sox - Indians games right next to each other, with a grand total of about 10 people in the stands. I get as close as I can and look over and I'm right next to Coop on a golf cart, he's watching John Danks on the mound. Also got to see Viciedo, Tim Rains Jr. hit a triple. Also heard a the guy next to me talking Sox baseball on his cell, Bruce Levine doing the Score update, talking about a possible Buehrle injury (same as every spring). As we left we stopped by the other game, Brandon Allen walks to the plate and hits one farther than I've ever seen anyone hit a ball in person, over the fence, the landscaping, the walking path and landed in the middle of the pond. BTW They've added a 2nd Cubs game at CR on Sunday March 7th. Similar thing happened to me. After the Sox/A's game last March my cousin and I walked back to those fields in the back. We saw the Indians and Dodgers playing a pair of games. Tommy LaSorda drove past me in his golf cart, I waved as he passed and he waved back and said "Hey guys!" as he drove by. I actually took video of all the players walking around past me and scouts taking notes, I should upload the video and show you guys. This is the only video I have uploaded currently..... http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1126222798746

QUOTE (League @ Nov 9, 2009 -> 07:22 AM) They're not going to change John's jersey. Having Jor. Danks on one is more than enough to distinguish them. Not to mention that if you see one doing anything other than pitching, you had better know which it is. Didn't they change the LaRoche's jerseys to Ad. and An.?

QUOTE (danman31 @ Nov 8, 2009 -> 11:12 PM) JorDanks works because that's probably what's going to go on his jersey if he plays for the Sox. Heck, we'll probably see that in spring training. That is also part of the reason why I started calling him that, and Johnny will obviously become Joh. Danks. Sucks for people who will have to buy a new Johnny Danks jersey!

QUOTE (The Baconator @ Nov 8, 2009 -> 01:45 AM) Agreed. D2 is good, and I'm also a fan of the classic 'Jordie' Hmm, I have never heard D2 before, but I think its pretty good. I will probably just call him Jordanks, or the usual name of Jordo.

Just as a quick note, what do you guys think of the nickname I made up for my fav. prospect Jordan Danks. I made this up basically right after we drafted him, but have not been on this site since hell, LANCE BROADWAY was the last fan club I was a part of. lol. jorDANks? Thoughts? For you slower peoples, it's Jordan and Danks in the same name.....

What about the Sox signing Hideki Matsui as our DH for a couple years? Would he cost too much? Would Thome come cheaper? Godzilla is 35 years old, but almost OPS'd .900 last year and is a career .292 hitter with .370 OBP.

Someone told me today that they heard Quentin will be back for the Detroit game, but I really doubt it. I hope he is on the playoff roster (if we make it), and can play game 4 or 5 of the ALDS, if needed.

3.11 is pretty high for league best. Must have been a hitters league.

Hudson - 5 IP, 4 K's? He's lost it.

The only run Bobby allowed this month occurred yesterday, right? I vote Bobby.

Danks and Becks each go 2-5 with 2 singles. Danks struck out twice, Becks had 3 RBI. Morel went 2-3 with his 5th HR, avg up to .290.

Booo. What a boring week with all this bad weather.

12 Ks for Hudson in 6 IP? Damnn. I have no clue who he is as I pay no attention to anyone not named Danks, Beckham, Silverio, Cook, and maybe a couple others I cant think of ATM. Has Hudson been doing well the whole year, and does he have any future with us?

Authentic black Carlos Quentin jersey with my Dublin BlackSox fitted hat. I used to wear my White w/ pinstripe Konerko one, but why even both when I got my Q-uperman one! And I also bring my Q-uperman sign with me. You may have seen me with it before, it's pretty damn popular every game I go to.

Silverio has 25 errors already!?!?!!? Move him to 1B already...
