Cubs are going for their first 3-game winning streak today. Not on our watch.

Phil Coke as a starter is over. 1-7, 4.82 ERA. Charlie Furbush is in the Tigers rotation, which will make Terry Boers very happy.

Final 81 breakdown to a divsion championship: (1) Col 1-0 (3) Cubs 2-1 (4) Bal 3-1 (3) Bos 2-1 (4) NY 2-2 (3) Tor 2-1 (2) LAA 1-1 (3) Sea 1-2 (3) Tex 2-1 Outside the division: 16-10 (13) Cle 8-5 (12) Det 7-5 (16) KC 10-6 (14) Min 8-6 Inside the division: 33-22 Basically win today, and then win 6 of 10 the rest of the season. 49-32 second half. Finish 88-74.

Another quality start last night vs Cleveland. 8-5, 3.49 ERA 13 quality starts out of 17. Holmberg has a 34 inning scoreless streak. http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/news/ar...;vkey=news_milb Great trade.

They just had to draft a guy named Walker with the initials KW. Let me know when he makes it to AA.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 28, 2011 -> 03:41 PM) Viciedo: .323/.361/.520/.881 with 12 HRs and 55 RBIs .330/.369/.528 He had a good game last night...again.

This series...don't have a good feeling about it.

QUOTE (103 mph screwball @ Jun 28, 2011 -> 07:26 AM) I want KW back. I can forgive the Jackson trade because he has had many successful moves such as Santos, Humber, Danks, and so on. I would replace Ozzie before KW to find out if a different manager who uses voodoo mumbo jumbo like statistics would be able to better use the players that KW brings it. They should have replaced Walker 3 years ago to find out if the offensive problems could be solved. I feel that KW would have fired both Walker and Ozzie a long time ago if it wasn't for JR. I feel KW would be an even better GM if JR would let him run the show. The only way to know for sure is to boot Ozzie and let KW have a couple more years with a manager of his choice. With the amount of moves teams make, you can cherry pick and make any GM look good. The bottom line with Kenny is his teams have won 2 divisions in 10 years, in the largest market in the weakest division. He got the winning lottery ticket in 2005, and he gets a certain amount of credit for that, but the bottom line is his teams usually don't make the playoffs, and the minor league system sucks.

Viciedo 2-2, 2B, walk. Yes, another walk. Enough is enough, Kenny. Take Ozzie's toy away from him.

Viciedo doubled in his first AB tonight. It's time. It's been time. The Sox can get away with splitting lead off time between Rios, Ramirez, and Lillibridge. Pierre has got to go, and we have to get Viciedo's bat in this lineup asap.

High 90's/low 100's in Denver the next few days. May have 50 mph winds on Thursday afternoon.

Indians called up Chisenhall.

Tony Pena pitched in his 4th rehab appearance tonight. Like it or not, he might be back.

That Lillibridge AB is killing me. God damn this team.

If it were a Red Sox/Yankees game, it would be on ESPN Classic tomorrow.

They might have to bring up an arm for tomorrow. At least Bruney would be gone. What's the story with Pena? He still alive?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 12:29 PM) All three interleague series have gone L-W-W. I, for one, would like to see this trend broken tonight on our way to being over .500 on Sunday afternoon. I'll take it now.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 11:36 PM) The f***? Really? Wow, this team must have zero chemistry. It was like a few golf claps, and Peavy sitting on the top bench giggling with Morel.

MLB Network showed the Sox dugout on AJ's homer...absolutley dead. Almost no emotion.

If they lose, it's one where you wish they just would have gone 1-2-3 in the 9th, and go get 'em tomorrow. But nooooooooo...

Good teams would have finished this one off.

Teahen--have yourself a night.

I'd like to know what Quentin's personal issue is. This is professional sports.

QUOTE (aprec32 @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 10:23 PM) I'm calling for a Dunn walk off? Who's with me? I was going to post that before Nix hit the homer.

I hate this team.
