i always wish anderson were playing. why does quentin get the nod over him?

YES!!! I'm so excited to get to see my 1st Sox game of the year!

I think the Swish goes downtown today.

To leadoff the game, and never look back... that would be nice!

i got no problems with quentin playing... im really glad he is getting the nod to be honest, i think hes gonna be a good major leaguer and im glad to see we are giving him a shot....same thing for anderson, but i think quentin will be better than brian will be

:) :) :)

Because Quentin is better.

Dreary day in Detroit today.

 

About 40 degrees, and rained overnight/early morning. Still cloudy. All is clear rainwise for the game, though.

Since when is that a reason for him to be in our lineup?

Well here to hoping Contreras fixed whatever was wrong!

Yeah, a new wife! :headbang

based on potential. he's never put up stellar numbers yet either.

lets hope the top of the lineup can make robertson work a bit so we can get into that detroit pen early

It's 420 feet to centerfield, 370 to left-center and 365 to right-center and the Tigers have more than a few hitters with excellent power to the gaps. If Anderson is going to get a start this season it should come in this series.

yeah because what's a +.100 OPS over about the same amount of career ABs mean anyway?

Again, the fact that Ozzie knows what he has in Anderson is hurting him. Swish and Quentin are like shiny new pennies. You want to play with them, count them, show them off to your friends...Anderson is like a 1969 penny that has been sitting in the gutter and you can barely see ol' Lincoln's face under the filth and muck. The good thing is they are both still pennies, so Anderson will get used eventually.

 

/idiocy

When it's the first 400 or so ABs of a career one could argue 'no much'. However I like both players so I don't really care who gets the nod just as long as one of them is getting some consistent ABs.

not really that much... we all know anderson never clicked in the majors, but after this spring i feel like this is his best shot to do it, so who knows.

It would be nice to see the boys get going on a nice little streak before they come home.... lets make the tiggers 0-6

WGN's new graphics are nice.

Does Jose do the old terrible first inning routine?

It is on the national "superstation" I'm watching it here outside of Saint Paul.

I was just going to say that. Very sharp.

 

Swisher takes it to a full count, then Robertson got him on back to back changes from 3-1.
