Can't read too much into short-season players, but it's nice to see Walker getting his hits right off the bat.

6 shutout innings for Danks. See ya in 5 days...or 6. Kuhn 2-2.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 15, 2011 -> 03:55 PM) Clearly there would have to be more to it. A Rios-like contract going to the Braves, or a player coming back in addition. That would be the bomb yo! (Sorry, just so excited about Breaking Bad coming back.)

I love it when people overreact to a minor league deal signing.

Every year at the all-star break, by the time it's about over, I'm itching for some White Sox baseball......not this year. I hope the Sox go 4-8 the next 12, and get this s*** over with.

Cooper was on Mully & Hanley this morning, showing why he could never be a manager. It gets interesting around the 10 minute mark about booing Dunn. I respect Cooper as a pitching coach, but he needs to keep his trap shut about the fans, even if if he's right. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/?podcast_url=h...mp;dcid=CBS.CHI

They're definitely protecting Humber a little bit, as they should. He hasn't gone this far in a major league season as a starter. I don't have a problem giving Humber extra time off at all.

Thome's wife before this inning started. Looks like his son has Jim's head.

Cap tipping to the Twins. what new?

Verlander finishing up his pre all-star break in style. Must be nice having an ace.

Not really worth it's own theead, but this one is as good as any... Rick Hahn will be on 670 at noon.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 10, 2011 -> 10:36 AM) He said in the Trib today that The Twins are always built to win the AL Central and not the World Series, while the Sox are always built to win the World Series and not the AL Central. He's an idiot.

Flowers has been recalled from Charlotte, as expected.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 10, 2011 -> 09:54 AM) The 2011 Twins still have a worse record than the White Sox. For now.

Pierre LF, Ramirez SS, Konerko 1B, Dunn DH, Quentin RF, Rios CF, Pierzynski C, Beckham 2B, Teahen 3B

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 10, 2011 -> 08:20 AM) Thanks for ruining my Sunday. I'd be happy if they launched Ozzie now, but the bigger picture is this team isn't going to make the playoffs either way. I just want Kenny gone at the end of the season, and the new GM should be able to pick his manager.

I forgot Viciedo is playing the Future's Game tomorrow. That's why he's off.

Lucy replaced Flowers in the game. Flowers is coming up.

Flowers just a hit a homer. He's 2-2. .261, 15 homers, 32 RBIs

Eh, who cares?

Hope it's true that Ozzie's gone soon, but Kenny deserves it more than anyone.

Viciedo is not in the lineup for Charlotte in the first game of their doubleheader. If he's not in the lineup for game 2, then we'll know something.
