QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 4, 2013 -> 05:11 PM) Maybe someone who can play 1st? I'm not sure. Hopefully someone different and interesting Tekotte isn't in the Charlotte lineup tonight.

JOrdan Danks sent down. No word who's coming up. Wise is starting a rehab assignment this weekend, so it isn't him. Tekotte has been good as of late.

Trade this man!

They should just keep track of quality start or no quality start. Make the record pass/fail, then let the rest of the numbers tell the whole story.

W-L record is antiquated.

Man it would be a gift if a team took a chance on Dunn.

Cody Puckett has also been moved to Charlotte. David Herbek to Birmingham.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 4, 2013 -> 10:55 AM) The Dodgers are only 2.5 GB. The Angels, on the other hand, have a long ways to catch the A's, Rangers and all the AL East. That NL West is a joke. MLB is going to look pretty bad if the winner of that division is 80-82, while two of the NL Central teams are playing one game to get in the playoffs. Anyway, I'm glad the Dodgers suck.

81-Game Records from the Bottom: 1. Hou 30-51 2. Mia 30-51 3. Mil 32-49 4. Sox 33-48 5. Cubs 35-46 6. NYM 35-46 7. Sea 35-46 8. Min 36-45 9. LAD 38-43 10. LAA 38-43 You can make a case that the Astros and Marlins have overachieved. And the Angels and Dodgers? Well, money doesn't buy championships.

Petricka to Charlotte. https://twitter.com/PlatinumSports/status/352630546502926336

Danny Hayes 2-4, double in his pro debut

...and this season is half O-VAH. We got another 33-48 in us.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 3, 2013 -> 09:07 PM) Says? Just speculating who would come up if Troncoso went down. Not much to choose from.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Jul 3, 2013 -> 09:05 PM) Is Beckham legit? It's like a no-hitter. You don't talk about it.

Zach Stewart may return, which is perfect for the 2013 season.

The Sox have had 43 quality starts this season. If they lose this game, their record in those 43 games would be 23-20. That is ridiculously bad.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 3, 2013 -> 08:18 PM) Fantastic start by Hector, which we will undoubtedly waste. Naturally. Santiago- 10 starts. 5 quality. 56.1 Innings, 3.36 ERA Not bad.

Bummer

QUOTE (baseball17 @ Jul 3, 2013 -> 08:00 PM) Wasn't the 40 man filled this morning with the call up of Purcey? So, Johnson couldn't have been called up because there was no open roster spot.. right? Correct, but by next Monday Purcey could be DFA'd, or some other move could be made with the 40-man (maybe Jhan Marinez). Johnson wouldn't be added officially until he has to.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 3, 2013 -> 07:51 PM) or maybe they'll have him pitch next Monday against the Cubs and try to schedule Santiago/Q/Sale to face the Tigers? Good call. They usually like to ease their way into the break with the starters to maximize rest.

I'm going to make a bold prediction---he got through 3 just to get his work in, and they're going to bring him up and move to a 6-man for a while.

Wow, that's interesting.

You didn't think he'd go the whole series without a homer, did you?
