Quin

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Apr 13, 2010 -> 03:16 PM) I see scouts all the time, this guy was watching intently. He sat behind home plate for our pitchers, he moved over to my section to watch our hitters. Considering KW's history with Arizona, it's something to keep an eye on. Conor Jackson could be had... Jackson would replace Pierre, but isn't left handed, so that wouldn't fly for Ozzie. Someone suggested Gerardo Parra earlier this year, and if the Sox got him, he'd be perfect for leadoff, is left handed, and from the few clips I've seen, has a rocket in center field. Quentin would have to suck it up and DH while the OF could look like: Jones - Parra - Rios.

On TV, apparently after the loss to the Suns Pax shoved Vinny and challenged him to a fight over the number of minutes for Noah. Wonderful.

Raptors won, I was hoping they'd lose but, they didn't. Bulls need to beat Boston tomorrow.

Peavy's pitches aren't looking good at all, and that worries me.

The Teahammer has struck. I didn't see the first innings, what was wrong with Jake?

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 12, 2010 -> 03:37 PM) Well it's not like his contract is up after this season or anything.. Oh wait. Hell judging by the commercial, Buehrle has great form back there when he was catching Peavy. I vote for Buehrle. He has pop in his bat.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 12, 2010 -> 03:24 PM) I would love it. Get Bosh, draft a sniper as a shooting guard (Anderson, Jones or Warren at 18, or pray Henry falls that low) sign a couple guys to the vet minimum for the bench, and call it an off-season. My big hope is that Henry magically falls or the Bulls somehow trade up. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 12, 2010 -> 03:36 PM) I'd (ugh) still hold onto Hinrich in that case...mainly as a defensive backup, but I'd go for that. Johnson and Gibson and Hinrich off the bench, that starting lineup goes 8 deep, maybe think about bringing back Miller for a small veterans contract, and then look at maybe bringing back Acie Law or something like that, and now we're 10 deep and 2 deep at every position. Don't forget Asik who is supposed to come by in 2010 and Alexander could round out the roster.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 11:28 PM) I've said this probably 10 times in the last year or so, but how bad is that Feliz/Andrus for Tex trade looking right now? Could you imagine a core of Jurrjens/Hanson/Feliz/Heyward/Andrus/McCann? You don't trade premium prospects for a rental. I don't care who it is. Atlanta had basically no shot at signing him long-term. And the return they got for Tex was laughable. Had they locked up Teixeira, it would have been perfect, but they didn't so they ultimately blew it. This is why I only want the Sox to get AGon if they think they can lock him up. QUOTE (earthshiner @ Apr 12, 2010 -> 12:47 AM) I was just thinking how wrong that nickname is. Leave it with Mays. Stealing Prominent Nicknames = Bad.

I went Sat, and was gonna go today, but friends couldn't, so I didn't. I intend on getting Gordon and Sergio's signatures next time.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 08:21 PM) Yup, so if the Bulls get these records, this would have to go down for the Bulls to get in. Bulls go 0-2, Toronto would have to go 0-2. Bulls go 1-1, Toronto has to go 2-0. Bulls go 2-0, Toronto's out. Odds are, the Raptors aren't going to win both games. If the Bulls go 0-2, would the Raptors have to go 1-1?

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 08:57 PM) When it comes to Carlos, "Madness is like gravity... all you need is a little push".... into the DH spot. That time on the bench will soon prove to be mentally overwhelming for someone as profoundly disturbed as Carlos Quentin. I just hope that he would crack, and go to bat with a sword.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 08:16 PM) I'd rather have Lucy anyway. Neither is likely to hit worth a damn, but Lucy can throw out runners, handles pitchers well, and brings some athleticism. This. If Castro had anything resembling a bat, maybe I'd like him, but he doesn't, and the team likes Lucy.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 08:19 PM) We should take Quentin out of the outfield completely. He's DH material. He's now slow and his arm doesn't seem to be as accurate or strong as it was a couple of years ago. But he'll go crazy!

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 07:02 PM) to me i think the coach was trying to make it seem like hardy pulled up or something the way he was positioned He was looking directly at Teahen and posing as a base runner, so yes, he was being pretty low class.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 07:02 PM) The way the Bulls have been most of the year, its probably better they have playoff teams. If it was two matchups vs. the Nets, they would blow it. Plus, the Celtics and Bobcats are both beatable, while Toronto has no Bosh.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 06:17 PM) The way I first read this, it was like we had two Tobys and the backup one got hurt First base Toby got hurt, Catcher Toby didn't.

Good first half for the Bulls, but Toronto has been a House of Horrors for them, so hopefully they keep it up in the next half. Edit: Turgoklu complained way to long for that foul And Bargnani had a monster block on rose, but it worked out in the end.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 06:00 PM) Bill Simmons says: Silly Nantz

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 04:24 PM) Did I see that right Haeger had 12 K's? I really liked Haeger when he was here, nice to see him doing well.

Well, heck, if they love Lucy so much, if Castro doesn't improve, keep Lucy around.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 03:43 PM) Paulie's off to a heck of a start. I guess rumors of his decline were greatly exaggerated. As long as he stays healthy, I think he can produce .280-30 HR-100 RBI easily.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 03:29 PM) Couldn't tell if he sent him, but I did see one interesting thing on the replay. Just after Hardy rounded third, and Teahen turned to look at home plate, the third base coach JUMPED INTO FAIR TERRITORY, right at third base. It honestly looked like he was trying to trick Teahen into thinking that he was the runner. Yea, that wasn't shady at all. Is there a rule against managers in fair territory during plays?

Chapman went 4 1/3 innings, 0 ER, 9 K's. How long before he's called up?

Tomorrow, the Jays shall be defeated.

Hardy got owned right there.
