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.

Charlotte http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...chraaa_gwiaaa_1 http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...chraaa_gwiaaa_2 Birmingham http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...biraax_jacaax_1 Winston-Salem http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...wswafa_salafa_1 Kannapolis http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...kanafx_lwdafx_1 http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...kanafx_lwdafx_2 Bristol http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...brirok_brlrok_1 Great Falls http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...grfrok_helrok_1

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.

Awful umpiring. Bang-bang play, and the guy slides head first? Automatic out.

I'll go with Twins win 4-2. Buehrle ok, quality start, bullpen gives up a late run. Dunn 0-4, 2 k's, 1 ground out, one fly out. Rios 1-4, single to left.

QUOTE (C_LEE45 @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 01:25 PM) if OG gets fired whatta bout Bob Brenly? Brenly would be at the top of my list to interview.

I'll gladly eat crow, but I don't think Reinsdorf would do anything with Kenny or Ozzie until the season is over. Ozzie isn't going anywhere now unless there's something behind the scenes that isn't out that cannot be reconciled.

QUOTE (ROC Sox Fan @ Jul 8, 2011 -> 08:15 PM) If he has two hits in the September game, will they technically be 2,999 and 3,000? No that would only be if they had a suspended game. The remainder of the suspended game goes to the stats from the original date. Like the Sox had an April game suspended vs the Orioles a few years ago. Ken Griffey Jr. played in the rest of the game in August, and it technically went to his April splits.

Go Twins!! 4th at the break!!

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Jul 8, 2011 -> 10:58 PM) You're still stuck with KW who manged a lousy farm system, taking risks on bad players, made a lot of bad trades, ect. I feel like we are the Oakland Raiders of MLB. Kenny's dream job. No wonder why it's so bad. It really is the worst being a fan of a bad veteran team.

Kenny has to go. I wish he'd quit now, and just let Hahn handle the rebuild.

Amazing...four days ago, I was feeling optimistic. This team is toast.

2 down. 2 to go.

Yankees rained out...makeup game in September. A lot of money was spent to see that game tonight, so I have to laugh.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jul 8, 2011 -> 04:38 PM) Can we just stop the Buehrle trade talk? Amazing things happen when he pitches and he's our boy. I want him to be our Wakefield. I want his name retired here. I want a statue. I want him here forever. That man has defied all the conventional pitching wisom. I hear you, and I would agree with you fully if I knew Buehrle wanted to pitch until he couldn't--late 30's/early 40's, the usual. If he's going to retire in a few years anyway, I'd be happy for him going home to St. Louis to finish out his career. If he stays, great. But if the Sox can find the right deal, and one that he would approve, I'd be ok with that too.

They changed her release date to Sunday, July 17. Wonder if it's a decoy just to give her a four day head start.
