Quintana - a good problem to have.
Despite having absolutely no stuff, this guy is getting guys out. Impressive to say the least. Plus, it's not like he's done this against horrible offensive teams. Cleveland, Tampa, and the Jays are all decent offensive teams. His peripherals suggest he will regress, but somehow, I see this guy as somewhat of an outlier.

Ozzie Martinez outrighted off of 40 man
Wow, Danks is ripping up AAA right now. He's had great patience throughout his career, but the power is finally showing up. I hope he's ready to not play everyday.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 6, 2012 -> 07:18 PM) Anyone think Tyler could put up Arencibia-type numbers if he played everyday? He can definitely match the home run total. He'll probably walk more as well. But I really don't see him hitting any higher than .240-.250. He'll be Adam Dunn super-lite.

Technology catch-all thread
http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/06/apple-c...g-galaxy-s-iii/ The data tapping patent is possibly the lamest and most unimaginative patent ever. That's something anyone can come up with. It's like Oracle suing Google over range check. Anybody can write that code, it's so easy and straight forward that it pretty much has to look the same in everybody's code. Seriously, I hope Apple's lawyers burn.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 6, 2012 -> 10:26 AM) Windows 8 wants to turn your PC into a smartphone. This almost feels like a fail, but then again, the layout of Windows for PC hasn't changed that much, but it sure looks like it's about to... There is a normal desktop in Windows 8. I tried out the release candidate a while back. I wasn't a fan of the whole touch thing. It'd be great on a tablet, but I don't have one...

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 6, 2012 -> 11:45 AM) Yankees seats are empty, $1, and it is stubhubs fault. Just like the Cubs. Unfortunately, there are no Sox tix for $5 on Stubhub. Cheapest might be $10-15 and those seats blow.

Stephen Drew
Stephen Drew can play 3B?

Konerko has wrist procedure
So that's why he was hitting badly. Whenever he gets these things, doesn't he go on a hot streak?

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 10:23 PM) its not a bailout. Haslem was going to foul Garnett regardless, he just had to go for broke because a foul on Garnett is one of the better outcomes on the inbound. I thought he could have tipped that ball without fouling, but that's just me.

Miami's done. No way they go into Boston in an elimination game and take one. This Boston team has way too much playoff experience for that to happen.

Celtics got bailed out. Bad foul by Haslem. He didn't need to hold Garnett back there. He could have still tipped that ball.

Come on Cs, just get the ball in, make your FTs, and you'll be up 3-2.

Blue Jays @ White Sox
I don't think Hudson would have done anything there anyways. Looks like we'll have to score 4 against Cordero.

Blue Jays @ White Sox
QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 09:34 PM) Doubt it, as you never know if Romero throws the same pitches in a closer game, etc. You also can't say that the other Sox reliever that would have come in would have held the Jays scoreless. Yeah, it's no guarantee. But him giving up 4 runs in 3 innings sure didn't help the cause.

Wow, Celts up 5 after 3. They'll win the series if they get this game...come on Boston. 12 more minutes of good basketball.

Blue Jays @ White Sox
QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 09:27 PM) Ironically, Stewart played a huge part in the game that the Sox came back to beat the Tigers at the Cell that turned our season around, IMO. Well he might have cost us this one.

Blue Jays @ White Sox
Those runs Stewart gave up with 2 outs sure look big now.

Blue Jays @ White Sox
10 HR for A.J. now. He's going to hit like 25 at this rate. That'd be quite the "rebirth" season for him at 30 something. ZiPS projects 8 HR the rest of the way, so they have him at 18. It'd be a career high I think (or tied for it at least).

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 5, 2012 -> 08:31 PM) Actually, he's still pitching I'm referring to the possibility of him pitching beyond this inning.
