I'd be thrilled if Tim Raines Jr. came up to the Sox and posted a line of .333/.432/.464 after bottoming out with a couple of minor league teams.

Tim Raines JR would have to go all Benedict Arnold on the Royals AAA team to make it back to the Sox like that.

yea they defiantly have the outfield DH and C covered now they just need an infield. I think moving huff and roberts along with their closer would expedite that.

Moving their recently extended all star 2b doesn't help them develop a solid IF. Moving Huff would be smarter, although last year was the year to do that.

For anyone that was in Milwaukee over the weekend. Does anyone know what Corey Hart's entrance song is? It is a country song with a man singing with a deep voice (Josh Turner)??? Help would be much appreciated!

Willy Taveras is in a career worst 0-32 slump. Not exactly what you want from a leadoff man. http://cincinnati.reds.mlb.com/news/articl...sp&c_id=cin

 

Jay Bruce has been even worse (if that's possible). That Reds offense has been such a huge disappointment. They'd be a real contender with their very fine pitching staff if their offense wasn't so inept.

I was trying to come up with a son of a former famous Sox player that was in a similar situation to Gwynn Jr. Certainly Oney Guillen and Kenny Williams Jr. don't count.

Joe Morgan, busted lying, again

Joe is pretty old and he could possibly mix stuff up. But that guy is way too full of himself so it's most likely him making all of it up.

Milwaukee needs to trade for some pitching, and fast.

Jeremy Jeffries and one of their possible catching prospects for Jose Contreras?

Jeffress for Contreras straight up would be a gem by KW.

So this Cleveland/Milwaukee game is pretty wild.

They're beating the hell out each other.

Just saw the highlight. Prince Fielder got ALL of that ball.

for the LAA, Santana to skip a start with some arm pain and Escobar to the DL

So I was at the Orioles-Mets game last night, and the Mets fans at Camden Yards were booing Luis Castillo. lol.

Next we're gonna find out that Joe Morgan didn't broker the solution to the Cuban Missile Crisis.

It isnt him being old and making stuff up. He is just making stuff up.

And Matt Wieters goes yard.

Trevor Hoffman and Milwaukee just blew a 4 run lead in the 9th against Cleveland.

Couple of things:

 

- Did Houston play on IRod playing in Texas tonight for his record breaking game? If so, that's pretty cool

- Check out David Wright's performance against LHP this season.

Small sample size. But god damn!

Mitch Jones, a 31-year-old Dodgers OF who was finally called up to the big leagues yesterday walks up to Mr. Jones by the Counting Crows. That’s just plain awesome.

Would anyone have interest in this guy?? Another "Coop will fix em"

 

Jonathan Sanchez's Trade Value Dropping

By Nat Boyle [June 16 at 9:54pm CST]

Brian Sabean once said he couldn't imagine trading Jonathan Sanchez. Now he may not be able to. Andrew Baggarly of the San Jose Mercury News says the lefty flamethrower's stock has declined sharply. Baggarly writes:

 

 

"Sanchez pitches today against the Angels having won just once over his past nine starts. The Giants are 2-7 over that span. In the process, Sanchez's trade value has declined sharply, according to scouts who have been following the team. Sanchez has struck out 57 in 57 2/3 innings, but scouts have mentioned an all-around drop in the quality of his stuff while noting that his control issues have gotten worse."

 

Baggarly says the Indians reported interest "has cooled" and that teams view Sanchez as more of a bullpen arm. Baggarly adds,

 

"While the Giants have not acknowledged that they are shopping Sanchez, league sources said the 26-year-old left-hander has been an active name as the club seeks a power bat for the middle of the lineup. A Giants source said the team was not close to making any deals. The club has talked to the Texas Rangers about third baseman Hank Blalock, but he isn't considered an ideal fit."
