QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 08:12 PM) Fields first pitch swinging singles to CF. How long until the meatheads start b****ing about his lack of pop?

I wish their were more Earl Weaver-like managers in the game today. In terms of antics Ozzie is pretty damn close.

QUOTE (tommy @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 07:53 PM) Do you think eventually they will let Alexei be our SS and change Gordon's position strictly to 2B ? It's a strong possibility, but where does that leave Getz?

QUOTE (tommy @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 07:51 PM) Beckham plays shortstop. And second.

Anyone else kinda wish Stoney would join Hawk on the "YES!!"?

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 07:46 PM) Last night Gordon k'd three times, grounded into a DP and committed an error. He needs more seasoning-preferably hot sauce. I have no idea what that means by the way I never said he'd be coming up anytime soon. I just think it would be stupid to assume that Getz is ignorant of the fact that the team’s best hitting prospect plays his position

QUOTE (Cali @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 07:41 PM) Does anyone else think Greg Zaun's mask is pretty awesome? I do. I heard Zaun painted it himself too. He's a big hockey guy

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 07:40 PM) perhaps Getz is our Theriot I like that a LOT. Actually, i hope he's more like Fontenot.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 07:38 PM) Borrowed time? Gordon Beckham in the minors is sure to light a fire under his ass. Even if Beckham won't be up for months.

Chris Getz could be on borrowed time right now, but he isn't playing like it. Love the kid.

Wow, did Alexei just walk?

QUOTE (CryptviLL @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 07:14 PM) Newb question - You can bring your laptop into ballparks? He might have an I-Phone. Nice, work Lostfan. It's a great ballpark, but their are like four people their today

Chris Getz really does a lot of things right for this team.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 07:03 PM) josh in a rut. Lexi to the 2 spot? Lexi can't hit crap, right now.

I think it’s’ the blatant homerism that I often exhibit, but there are times when I can’t think of a more natural hitter (not named Pujols) then Carlos Quentin.

I believe the nickname comes from BBTN.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 22, 2009 -> 05:04 PM) A cat snuck onto the field at Wrigley last night (cat is fine). Funny article has a Sox bit at the end. Also a Bartman like incident in their too.

Nice to see Kyle giving the Barons something in that rotation.

It's starting to look like one of CR/AP might be our best option. I love Contreras but if he's done, he's done.

QUOTE (Tmar @ Apr 21, 2009 -> 06:37 PM) Bad move. MacDougal was a quality piece of the bullpen. Green, i assume? And hope.

Joey Devine is a kid with a world of talent. Can't seem to get that arm to work, right.

If Macdougal could still hit a consistent 97 with has fastball, and had that sick slider that he came up with, he'd be worth keeping around. This is not the case, and this move is a long time coming.

Wait, having two potentially premier offensive players at two traditionally non-hitting positions would be a downgrade?

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 21, 2009 -> 04:16 PM) I hope Felix Pie figures it out. Just not against us of course. Agreed, i love super-prospects
