QUOTE (Wanne @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 07:07 PM) I still wouldn't mind Vargas... He's going to be a trainwreck at the Cell. 5.93 FIP on the road, 3.5 at Safeco.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 03:39 AM) Replaced my stolen 16 GB Zune HD with a 32 GB Zune HD bundle that came w/ wall charger, TV dock, HDMI cable, AV cables, and remote control for $150 used off Craigslist. Unreal that those things sell for over $400 brand new now. I even saw a 16gb 1st gen Zune that was selling for $200+ online brand new. Prices have skyrocketed since production seized. I think it might be time to move on from Zunes my friend. Sony's released a few Android-powered Walkmans with Tegra 2 processors. You probably should have taken a look at those. Samsung also sells Galaxy players for nearly the same price you got your used Zune. Both are probably better and more modern alternatives.

Anybody with a jailbroken iPad here? The lack of themes and appropriate size icons for the iPad is kind of disappointing. You'd think theme makers would take the opportunity to have an excuse to charge you for re-sized icons. But no...they're all iPhone retina display sized, twice as big as iPad 1 and 2 icon resolution. I'm not really into resizing all of the icons myself either. Anybody got a good source besides Macthemes?

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 11:01 PM) Youkilis. He led off some for the Red Sox, I believe. Youk has said he does not like to hit leadoff. If he's out of the equation, I think we should get Alexei to hit there. Sure, he doesn't walk, but do you really have any other viable options? Beckham's struggling, Rios is too valuable down in the lineup for you to hit him in the one hole, and Danks doesn't even have a walk yet at the ML level.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Jul 10, 2012 -> 09:46 AM) Yes...this. Serves as a screen protector when not in use, and uses the built in magnets on the iPad 2/3 to hold it...it's really awesome. http://www.amazon.com/gp/mpd/permalink/m1E...ref=ent_fb_link It's not cheap, but in the keyboard for iPad arena, it's by far the best there is...and lasts weeks on one charge. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Ultrathin-K...ogictech%20ipad I ended up getting this, I'm actually typing on it right now. The keyboard feels great and the magnets are a great touch. Although I do feel that they're actually not strong enough when it's folded. The iPad slides around at times. The bottom is also super scratch-prone and will slide around on you unless you get some kind of a padding or skin (I got iCarbons for the keyboard case, yeah...$25 for a skin to protect your case that protects your iPad...haha). Not sure if it's worth $100 since it's not as nice as the keystone/keyboard docks HP and Asus have with their tablets, but it's the best you can get for the iPad.

Thank goodness. If we gave up two of our ML players for 10 starts of Greinke, I would have been pissed.

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 10:40 PM) Lets just hope De Aza is not injured. I don't know who the hell we can hit leadoff if he is.

Don't look now, but we're 5-2 against Texas.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 10:38 PM) Maybe Harrison will have a dead arm? Part of it is Humber's horribleness. Another is that we've never hit Harrison well.

Sox win!

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 10:37 PM) He'll be available if they need him I'm sure. Chances are they won't both days. I doubt we'll win tomorrow. It might not be all that close.

2 down.

Reed in. I sort of don't like this. Reed hasn't had the best of times in non-save situations.

Viciedo just missed it.

There we go! 4 run lead, no need for Reed.

Nice job by Myers. He doesn't make me want to tear my hair out when he pitches. Unlike Crain and Thornton. Those guys are horrible to watch.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 10:15 PM) Not like this means anything, but David Murphy absolutely kills me in The Show. I hit him in the head every chance I get. Total pro you are.

Ugh, now the Rangers will be able to flip the lineup over.

He gawn!

Joe West would never give us a call.

I can only imagine all the bad things people will say about Myers if he blows this game (or any game in the future).

QUOTE (johnnymick @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 10:05 PM) Danks has .296 BA, but a .286 OBS. How does that happen? Sacrifice fly.

Wow, we got out of it? Holy crap.

WTF did we go get Brett Myers for? To finish blowouts?
