QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 08:59 PM) New lady friend? Same one. Getting married in November.

First ML homer for Tekotte.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 08:46 PM) Don't worry, they left him in long enough to possible get a loss Ventura is obsessed with getting pitchers applause.

Jacob May hit by two pitches tonight. No longer in the game.

What are the chances the Sox score a run now and hold on the lead so Leesman gets a win? Slim? None?

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 08:27 PM) Viciedo getting blown away by this awful pitcher He's getting traded this offseason.

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 08:10 PM) I don't think this newfound payroll flexibility is going to do anything to diminish the team's aversion to pursuing clients of Scott Boras. Hahn talked about Boras today with Bernstein. It's been said before, but the problem really isn't dealing with him...it's the time it takes to sign his players. The Sox usually don't outbid teams, so they don't have time to wait until mid-January and in the process lose out on their next best options too. Makes sense.

Beck perfect thru 3. 3 k ...Lead off single in the 4th

Beck clean first inning. One K. Blanke took Bradley deep.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 07:20 PM) Leesman showing what we thought he was. Passable low 90s fastball, decent curve, plus change, hard on lefties, control problems. Even though his best pitch is his change up I tend to think he's best suited as a reliever. He should probably get a good September audition for next year.

He's there.... https://twitter.com/AvisailGarcia34/status/...5410176/photo/1

90% boos for Arod at home.

RBI single for Hawkins. Another hit tonight gets him to .200.

Hahn on the Score now. Deadline was 12:30 today. In under the wire.

Garcia may not start tonight. Running late, I guess.

https://twitter.com/arios51/status/365941615644254208 See you and AJ in two weeks.

This game will no doubt go 15 innings. It's a doubleheader, after all.

Ahh-vee-sah-eel May I call you Avi? Garcia will wear 26. He'll have to wait for 34, unless he doesn't care.

Leury Garcia's combined numbers between AA and AAA: 147 games 624 PAs 570 ABs 86 runs 161 hits 20 2B 15 3B 6 HR 49 RBI 43 SB 11 CS 132 K 36 BB .282 AVG .329 OBP .402 SLG Not bad for a 22 year-old. A better version of Carlos Sanchez?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 02:00 PM) And we should probably hope he doesn't destroy a knee during the playoffs. I would think there are contingencies in place.

Does that mean L Garcia has to stay with the Rangers org until October?

QUOTE (103 mph screwball @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 01:42 PM) This thread will get a lot more attention because of this. The Garcia era begins tonight. Hope he doesn't suck. I hope he doesn't suck either, but my expectations are low. I'm just glad he has 49 games with the Sox this year. Maybe he can hurt his old team a little too.

Hahn is scheduled to talk to Bernstein 5-5:30 on 670.
