QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 11, 2012 -> 07:16 PM) So this is where the ERA and the record comes from... The record is probably from the fact that the Twins suck.

Why is Blackley allowed to pitch without full-sleeves? His arm tattoos can be distracting to hitters.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 11, 2012 -> 07:09 PM) He shouldn't be having them against the worst offense in baseball, a team he struck out 15 batters from previously in the year. This is one of the better hitting teams in the AL since they called up Carter. Their 3-4-5 is really good.

Where did Liriano's control go?

Chris Carter is like a right-handed Ryan Howard.

A hitting lesson with Adam Dunn... I'm not sure if that will be all that helpful.

Damn it Gordon.

Wild pitch. Alright Gordon, do your job.

Attaboy Tyler.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 11, 2012 -> 06:29 PM) Just curious, are the rosters true in that Rose is unavailable for most of the season? Nope, he's rated a 93 and healthy.

When did Liriano start throwing a cutter?

Lucky ass double.

I played some 2K with updated rosters (for this off-season). I actually liked playing with this current team more than last year's. Radmod is deadly at 3s. Better than Korver (in the game, that is). Having Hinrich, Robinson, and Bellinelli off the bench was very nice. When this roster is completely healthy, I can see it being pretty good (in real life).

Thought I heard Alejandro tip that ball. Oh well.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Aug 11, 2012 -> 08:00 AM) What I find scariest in that stat comparison is that Mike Trout (21) now has more home runs than Prince Fielder (20) -- with 23 LESS GAMES PLAYED 'Roids.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 11, 2012 -> 04:07 PM) I'm pretty sure I matched Hawk's HR call on Danks to within 0.25 seconds, word for word, by the way. My wife got mad at how loud I was. You even said "Reddick doesn't move"?

Blackley's gained 7 MPH on his fastball this year (from 83 to 90). Odd.

THAT BALL HIT DEEP...REDDICK DIDN'T MOVE! YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOARD, YES! That's gotta be one of the best HR calls Hawk's done this year.

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 10, 2012 -> 10:07 PM) This was the page I left my browser on. So...let the crow be eaten in the name of a White Sox winner!!! I'll eat crow all year if it means the Sox win.

I had no expectations when Jordan went up to the plate. I'll take it!

There's that power he was flashing in AAA. HELL YEAH!

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 10, 2012 -> 09:04 PM) WTF is Ron Washington doing? NOW he brings in the lefty, after Prince homers? He had some fun with Hamilton last night.

Tigers lead 4-2. Fielder just hit a three run homer. f***.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 10, 2012 -> 08:59 PM) What was that for? Cespedes HBP?

A.J. looks ready to charge the mound.
