No need to bunt, they're loaded.

BUNT Ozzie, you know you want to. Hahaha.

Is that a base hit by Pierre? Woah.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 14, 2010 -> 07:19 PM) The most encouraging thing about Teahen is that even with his struggles, he's still having some great at-bats. That's what happens to guys who come out of the A's system. Usually pretty patient.

Wow this PA announcer is terrible.

Danks needs to keep his pitch count down. Inning over.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 14, 2010 -> 06:58 PM) Carlos Pena's season last year blows my mind. He hit .227 and almost had a .900 OPS. That seems like it should be impossible. I mean, I realize Thomas did it for a month in 2005, but that's a f***ing month. Pena did it in 135 games. A .310 ISO with a .227 BA is crazy. He's off to a pretty damn good start again this year to (3 run homer today). Maybe this year he'll get more singles than homers, but I really hope he doesn't. You know there's something wrong when your ISO is higher than your batting average.

Walk and an error, oh great.

The funny thing is, he probably did get hit.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Apr 14, 2010 -> 05:01 PM) Kotsay hurts the lineup less than Pierre. In the long run, he probably hurts them more.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Apr 14, 2010 -> 04:54 PM) 7 Kotsay 4 Beckham B Quentin 3 Konerko 5 Teahen 8 Rios 9 Jones 2 AJP 6 Vizquel Pierre will lead the league in outs if he plays everyday. His role has to be diminished. Oh lord...

And just like that, the Cubs lead.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 14, 2010 -> 02:42 PM) Just think...we had him for McCarthy. The only thing that saved us was that he decided he'd rather test the market than sign an extension at the time. We wound up with Danks out of that. That would have been scary.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 14, 2010 -> 11:05 AM) Rose has been a s*** talker since HS, but last night he just continued to stare down Rondo. I was about 11 rows up and could see him challenging him over and over. Derrick Rose actually talks s***? This is new to me.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 14, 2010 -> 09:15 AM) All this excitement over the Bulls really pisses me off, to the point that I'm disgusted in Chicago Bulls fans. Why is everyone getting excited that the Bulls are fighting with a Chris Boshless Toronto Raptors team for the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference? The Bulls suck, and have gone nowhere in the last 5 years. They've made every wrong decision sans Derrick Rose who was giftwrapped for them. Now, fans think it's some big deal that the Bulls are going out and beating old injured Celtics teams or Cavs teams sans Lebron to pass the Raptors who don't have Chris Bosh. I hope the Bulls get crushed tonight, per the usual, and I hope the Knicks lay down against the Raptors. Unless we get a better coach and a better GM because of this, I would never want the Bulls to miss out on the playoffs. Thing is, Vinny's probably not coming back, so it doesn't matter either way.

You gotta wonder what they teach you in Venezuela.

QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ Apr 13, 2010 -> 09:47 PM) Mattingly Why would Mattingly want to manage this team?!?!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 13, 2010 -> 10:11 PM) The Raptors or the Nets. They would've clobbered either team, IMO. Oh definitely...

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 13, 2010 -> 10:04 PM) Splendid all-around performance tonight. I can't help but expect a letdown tomorrow. Shades of 2007 when all we had to do was beat the Nets to lock up the #2 seed and get a free pass to the conference finals is still fresh in my mind. Who would they have played instead of Detroit had they gotten the second seed?

Romero was damn good tonight, other than Vizquel leading off, you really can't blame Ozzie.

Hinrich was so money down the stretch.

Gavin's curve looks like crap today.

Well, the game's pretty much over.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 13, 2010 -> 06:49 PM) Yes, and the hitters were missing the pitches by a good foot. Romero literally looks unhittable out there. Only Rios made good contact. Vizquel also hit it pretty hard, just right at Encarnacion.
