Dear god is Gavin on today.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Sep 5, 2009 -> 05:45 PM) Agreed. Buerhle might be Number 4. I'd leave him as two. Ozzie loves his Right-Lefty shift.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 5, 2009 -> 05:42 PM) What is amazing about Floyd so far, as he has nothing on his curve today. He is strictly fastball/Cutter/change out there He used it as his finisher on one batter earlier in the game, but it’s moving so violently today that I don’t think he trusts it.

Oh, cool. Buehrle is giving Wheezy and Castro lithographs of the perfect game.

That was a great read off the bat by Rios on a ball that carried a long way.

Alexei is going to throw out his back one of these ways. That swing gets long as hell on low and outside pitches.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 5, 2009 -> 05:34 PM) Gee, does anyone think Getz is running here? Nope, now way.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 5, 2009 -> 05:33 PM) No more minors to pitch in now. ooohh, good call. Where else would he be?

I f***ing love Chris Getz.

Wow, Peavy actually is in the clubhouse. In uniform. I did not notice that.

Kotsay! Bit of an improvement over BA, huh?

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Sep 5, 2009 -> 03:17 PM) You had me until the Joe Morgan thing. I like Joe's analysis. Maybe he will manage sometime? Joe Morgan is both a moron and something of a racist. Sounds like a great combo to lead a team.

Where is everybody? We're national folks, get your heads in the game!

Big Game Gavin.

Okay, screw history. Just get the win.

Damn.

Snap-Dragon Curve, baby!

That was just spectacular from Alexei.

WOW

Nix clearly has no idea what to do with a knuckleball. Add that to the scouting report.

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 5, 2009 -> 11:15 AM) Worse than Soriano? Yuniesky Betancourt is far worse. Raul Ibanez is up their too.

Coop says barring setsbacks Peavy will pitch this month.

Oh, that was damn pretty Gavin

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 5, 2009 -> 10:11 AM) Hudson won't be ready til 2011 for full time rotation work. Please explain to me how this is true.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 5, 2009 -> 05:54 AM) He looked pretty good. FB looked good with nice movement. Off-speed stuff looked alright (although the gun was all messed up, as they had his off-speed stuff clocked at like 62 MPH). Take it with a grain of salt, though, as the Red Sox had pulled all their starters and inserted their scrubs by the time Hudson came in. I liked Nunez as well. He's got a really nice slider. According to the Boston broadcast, he was averaging 93, while hitting 95
