QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 10:47 PM) I was gonna say, good pitchers like Hudson give up solo home runs. Solo home runs simply don't matter. I concur. Cuddyer's solo home run yesterday didn't matter one bit.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 10:04 PM) Cardinals suck right now. Their middle infield is pathetic. Cubs made up four games in last five days Don't worry, the Cubs face the red hot White Sox next, that will slow them down. And what the f*** happened to Colby Rasmus? He was my guy, but for the last month he's been playing all Gordon Beckham-y.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 02:53 PM) f*** Daniel Hudson Post of the year

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 02:55 PM) Yankees fans having a meltdown over getting shut down by Doug Davis. Welcome to Wrigley Field with the wind blowing in

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 01:28 PM) They have Rolo McFlurrys now by me. that sounds very intriguing, might have to find those

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 02:13 PM) Seriously Yankees, getting no hit thru 3 by Doug Davis? Thanks Ron Roenicke for waking up the Cubs. They win this series, and they'll come into the Cell with a lot more confidence than they had a week ago. I assume Doug Davis would be facing the Sox on Wednesday. We all know how well the Sox usually fare against "crafty" lefties.

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 02:02 PM) Sigh. only if every1 were a glimpse of their former selves. Imagine if we had Rios putting up Matt Kemp-like #s, every1 would be rolling on the ground. What would have been. If Rios was putting up Matt Kemp-like #s, he would be greatly outperforming his best season and would be a legitimate MVP contender.

Kazmir & EJax are just smoking the wrong s***. They need to call up Tiny Tim in SF and hook up with his dealer. That should turn their pitching around.

This should be Freddy's ideal game setting. On the road, hot & humid day game, that's when he usually excels.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 12:59 PM) This is going to be a long-ass list. But here we go: Carlos Gonzalez Rickie Weeks Evan Longoria Tulo Ryan Zimmerman Justin Upton Jason Heyward Mike Stanton Eric Hosmer Andrew McCutchen Clayton Kershaw Josh Johnson David Price Cole Hamels Felix Brian Wilson Craig Kimbrel Johnny Venters Michael Pineda Mariano Carlos Marmol Juan Pierre (Yes, I know he's a White Sox. But he's so good I couldn't help myself). Did you just copy & paste a keeper league draft cheat sheet?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 12:36 PM) Ozzie will dictate this. And I'm sure you would come to his defense if he sat one of the most productive players in baseball for the equivalent of the fat kid from Sandlot (he actually had more pop). The Great Hambino?

Just in time for interleague play with no DH

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 11:12 AM) I would be surprised if they don't trade Nolasco soon. Sucks for them that Volstad appears to be a bust. Ricky Nolasco was traded for Juan Pierre once before. Maybe it can happen again?

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 11:18 AM) So I just decided to go back and check the winning percentages for Ozzie Guillen and Jerry Manuel. .514 (which equals about 83 wins a year) .525 (which equals about 85 wins a year) Not a big difference. Manuel Division Titles: 1 Guillen Division Titles: 2 Manuel Playoff Victories: 0 Guillen Playoff Victories: 12

Chris Young, Daniel Hudson, & Gio Gonzalez Pujols Hunter Pence Ryan Braun King Felix Carlos Marmol (despite the team he plays for)

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 07:43 AM) I didn't know the Vancouver players got involved too. Well done!

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 10:26 PM) One of the problems I have with yesterday's riots is that it was 100% premeditated. I was watching the live coverage last night on CTV and a reporter noted that some of the fans she talked to before the game were looking forward to recreating the '94 Vancouver riots if the Canucks lost. It only lends credence to Steve's comments, the police were "ready" for rioting, not nearly as prepared as they needed to be but they were well aware that some s*** was going to go down if the Canucks lost, there was plenty of buzz before the game even began. It's not totally out there to say Vancouver can not be trusted, they seem to be the rioting type and now it's becoming a tradition. You are 100% correct. This quote from the police chief sums it up.

QUOTE (smalls2598 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 11:31 AM) Fun times may be ahead for Interleague play, per Rotoword: White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said Thursday that Adam Dunn will get starts at first base and potentially the outfield during interleague play. If you are gonna do it, Saturday is the day to make it happen. Check out the career stats vs. Zach Duke: Dunn 8-17, 1 2B, 2 HR, 3 BB, .471/.550/.882 Pierre 4-24, .167/.167/.167

D.J. Carrasco just balked in the winning run in the 10th inning to give Scott Linebrink the win. No, this is not mad libs, it actually happened.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 03:55 PM) Hmmm, how long is Manny suspended for? He could sign him today and hello September addition! Mannypalooza!!!!!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 03:08 PM) Doesn't it become mysterious though about why there's numerous players on a team that seem to not be able to impliment what Walker is trying to teach them (Rios and Beckham this year, Fields from previous seasons). Fields is just bad anywhere he goes, Walker can't fix that.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 01:06 PM) This damn Twins lineup is just so damn bad to even look at. I mean come on, Rene Rivera? If the Sox lose this game, and I'm willing to be that they will, it is just beyond sad. This is literally a AAA lineup. If you score 0 runs, it's impossible to beat even a AA lineup.
