QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 2, 2009 -> 02:20 PM) Anyone know how to find the MLB Gameday for the game? I saw in previous games, people said it was there, but not linked from the scoreboard. http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?g...seamlb_chamlb_1

Um Bill, His last name is Richard, not Richards.

QUOTE (ChesterCopperpot @ Mar 2, 2009 -> 02:03 PM) Wow, any ideas why most of the starters are playing today? And who's pitching? First 'home" game at Camelback Ranch.

Nice inning for Clayton.

Looks like they have multiple cameras, so that's good.

Webcast is on. I have a feeling these webcasts will only be that one camera angle from the press box. Could be wrong.

Gordon Beckham is going to be a stud.

QUOTE (tommy @ Feb 28, 2009 -> 04:19 PM) The game tomorrow against the Dodgers is on CSN. First game at the Ranch. Looking forward to seeing it...albeit on TV.

Adam Russell...shelled

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Feb 28, 2009 -> 02:11 PM) Just FYI, preseason gamedays are very very inaccurate. sometimes they just throw three stirkes of any kind in there to denote a strikeout. Ah...gotcha.

Lillibridge--3 pitches. Called strike Called strike Called strike It's like Swisher never left...

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Feb 28, 2009 -> 12:54 PM) http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?g...chamlb_chnmlb_1 Just curious...where did you access the Gameday? When I go to the MLB scoreboard, I don't see Gameday there.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 28, 2009 -> 12:55 PM) Seeing a lot of Kroeger. Maybe he has an outside shot at the squad? I doubt it. I just think with spring training so long this year, they're not going to overwork Thome, Konerko, and Dye too much for the next couple weeks.

QUOTE (Want2Repeat @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 09:08 PM) Are there any reports on the B game out there, other than what Poreda did? Some notes here: http://scottmerkin.mlblogs.com/

QUOTE (lostfan @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 02:36 PM) Flowers is a ways away. True. I mean if he tears up AA, I don't think a September callup is out of the question. Also depends on the 40-man roster at that time, since he would need to be added.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 02:43 PM) Next up to pitch, Don Cooper's newest reclamation project, Van Benschoten If this guy turns out for the Sox, they should have a Pitching Coach award named after Don Cooper.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 02:26 PM) i really think the 2nd base competition is going to be really tight all spring long...getz has the plate discipline, Lillibridge the Speed, Nix probably has the best power of the three and maybe the D.... I really believe that by the end of spring training, the Sox are going to still like all three players--Lillibridge, Getz, and Nix. If I had to guess what will happen, Lillibridge and Getz will both make the team, and both will get ample playing time. Vs. lefties, it'll probably be Anderson in CF and Lillibridge at 2B, and Brent will probably get a little more playing time at SS. If you remember last year, Alexei would get a little tired and go in mini-slumps. Liilbridge could probably start 50 games at 2B, and another 20-30 at SS. Nix? Might be a numbers game because he really only plays 2B. I think the Sox might do him a favor and try to move him to another organization.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 02:09 PM) So it really sounds like they are planning on Viciedo starting in the minors when Ozzie is saying he will be here soon. He should go to the minors. He's 20. He's not a polished 3rd baseman, and he hasn't played enough of the other possible positions. Hopefully he has a nice season in Birmingham, and if he does well, comes up in September with Beckham and Flowers.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 12:49 PM) Where'd you find that? He must either be taking it easy or was working on cutting his fastball. Mark Gonzalez' blog.

Poreda threw 21 pitches, 18 fastballs, two breaking pitches and a change-up. His fastball was clocked from 91-93 mph.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Feb 27, 2009 -> 11:35 AM) with alexei playing in the B game i imagine we'll see more of gordo in the real game Maybe. Could be Lillibridge. Could be a few other NRI players they have in camp.

Poreda rough start so far...Homer by Furcal, single by Hudson, according to Joe Cowley. Updates here: http://twitter.com/cst_sox

The games vs. the Cubs on March 4, 5, and 27 will be on WGN with Cubs announcers. Also, according to the schedule some of the CSN games will also be on MLB Network, if you don't get CSN: March 1, 14, 21 and April 2
