QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 12, 2011 -> 12:27 PM) 1.) How many games did Juan cost us? I love how this has become a commonly accepted belief on here that somehow Juan Pierre has cost us as much as Dunn/Rios, etc. Bulls***. AJ and Juan have had surprisingly good seasons and both get no love. 2.) Yes we do. We know how bad Adam has been, how historically bad. I approve. Juan has single handley won atleast 3-4 games I can remember this season. Probably more. Dunn has won about 2 but he's had so many more opportunities to win more.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 11, 2011 -> 03:29 PM) Since Mid-May, Vizquel is hitting .204 with a .463 OPS. So who plays SS if ARAM2 needs a break? Omar is decent can you really sit there and deny that?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 11, 2011 -> 03:12 PM) Omar Vizquel has as many triples this season as AJ Pierzynski. AJ has more PA too.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 11, 2011 -> 03:02 PM) Omar is absolutely terrible with the bat. Provides nothing productive at the plate. He doesn't get to play enough. Not saying he should. He was batting something like .270 ish last year. He knows how to hit. I remember he hit a triple sometime this year, how many triples do the SOX have this year? He moved Pierre into 3rd for the first run last night did he not? Could you trust ARAM2 with that task in the 2 hole? I'd say you are concentrating on the negatives too much. OV is a decent bat.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 11, 2011 -> 01:39 PM) Thank goodness no Omar. Dunn is hitting where he should (I mean if he has to play at all). Too bad Ozzie won't bench Rios and play DeAza. Sad. Omar is still a solid glove and bat. He might have just had a bad day or is rusty since he's a utility player for the most part. Now Dunn on the other hand... he's just useless on defense and offense. If it isn't broke, don't fix it. THE SOX have won fine without his "contributions". Bench him! Bench him! I don't care how much money these clowns make. If you don't perform you don't play. That's the way the cookie crumbles.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 10, 2011 -> 03:12 PM) Dammit. Omar second is ridiculous. I'd rather have Beckham up there if Lexi is getting the day off. s***. And the power surge you mentioned has been THE KEY to our finally winning some games in a row. Dunn seventh is perfect; Omar second, ugh. Why is Omar second bad? He's a seasoned player who can do a lot of good things with his bat.

QUOTE (BBaum21 @ Aug 8, 2011 -> 05:39 PM) You realize they took 3/4 from Sox earlier this year, right? Yeah when the SOX were going through their worst slumps of the season. Neither of these teams are the same as when they first met earlier this year. Their records should be enough to show that.

Glad to see the offense show some fire, but it is the O's.=\ We are expected to win against them.

Would it be harsh to say anything less of a sweep of the O's would constitute as complete and utter failure?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 8, 2011 -> 03:23 PM) The Sox suck. Welcome to Soxtalk, the land where everything bad Sox is discussed ad nauseum. But seriously... welcome to Soxtalk! Thanks man. I hope I can contribute to the forums adequately in the future.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 8, 2011 -> 03:19 PM) I'm not trolling bro, I'm just simply just shocked at how far this thread has gone. Maybe I'm just not use to it yet.

My mind is so full of f***! I am new to SoxTalk but I find this topic so absurd, I can't even contribute without s***ting my pants from laughter.

4th

As we all know, the lineup without PK is pretty much lifeless. Welcome back PK let's avoid the SWEEP! =\

Now replace Dunn with Vicideo and I think we'll have a line up to cheer for.

Work the fuggin' counts. I can't believe this team doesn't know how to work the fuggin' counts.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 05:45 PM) And it also doesn't matter. You don't rip on guy's wife like that. You are right of course. I am just surprised he would stoop to that level.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 04:39 PM) I was curious now as to what Teahen's wife looked like, so I found the pictures from the Teahen event last week and voilà: She doesn't look bad at all.
