Please shut me up OC!

not for the sox's sake, but for soxtalks sake..

The only way to restore your honor after a 4 pitch walk to Uribe is to kill yourself.

I think OC stands way too far off the plate.

OC is a disappointment.

He has the prettiest foul ball swing in the bigs

Well, that was a horrific at bat. I absolutely despise Orlando Cabrera. What a terrible trade!

I do not like Orlando Cabrera.

Orlando Cabrera has to be the best acquisition ever for KW!!

 

F'kin pathetic

Those two (if we even get two at this rate) draft picks better be a couple of freaking studs.

Nice going OC.

a big LOL@ this team. bunch of f***ups.

As Swisher fails to deliver, Josh Hamilton collects his 43rd RBI of the season.

 

We didn't have anything 1/10th as good as Volquez to give up.

at least uribe has been good the last week lol.... even drawing walks

There were 4 shortstops available this offseason via trade...Furcal/Tejada/Renteria/OC. I think KW chose wrong...at least we didn't lose a valuable commodity.

I guarantee we could have got Hamilton for the Swisher package.

That called strike looked off the plate, but what else is new for this offense. How many times have we left the sacks full in the last few games and couldn't get the big runs in when needed even when we won the game. The guys doing the best job are the bottom of the order.

He swung

I'm at the point where I can't bear to watch OC at the plate anymore. I can't believe my heart sinks upon seeing the hitter who comes AFTER Uribe...

Volquez alone is better than what that package is and will be, but bah your probably right it'd have gotten Cincy to pull the trigger.

Even worse. Thanks for telling me though

I think that's pretty much game over there. f***. Another game we should have won.

 

I keep telling myself these close games have to start turning our way but they don't. I'm starting to think we're just a bad team instead of an unlucky one.

 

When give up 2, we score 0. When we score 3 or 4, we give up 6. That is what bad teams do.

And I don't care if Josh breaks Hack Wilson's RBI record this year; you don't trade Volquez, especially when your rotation includes names like Ponson, Padilla, Gabbard, Feldman, etc.

Volquez wasn't an absolute blue chip talent though...it was quite the risk for Cincy. Volquez has always had a big reputation, but with his advanced age, it's not like he was a Kershaw or Jay Bruce.

You don't trade Volquez period, even if you have 4 other great starters, his stuff is just phenominal.
