Great AB for Paulie!...big run.

Nice AB for Paulie. Way to go.

Middle of our lineup is SMOKINNNNNNNNNN

no cycle for paulie?

They are walking AJ, make them pay Alexei.

Konerko , Dye , CQ!!!

Pretty funny Paulie had to slide into second base on that one...anyone else its a stand up double

Minus the guy I felt should have had today off.

Its going to take Quentin another 6 months to get some bat speed.

 

I thought he was very close, though i truthfully didn't think he was 100%. I would welcome being wrong in this instance every single time around.

bmags: happy we are scoring a lot of runs, really pissed he can't see it. Can't wait to get back a few months in May.

I wish someone on our major league roster could go 4-4...

b/c of what i saw on the outfield wall i looked this up

 

is it common knowledge that Ty Cobb never had a number? I didnt realize the practice came around so late.

Alexei K's.

 

Let's hope pen can deliver.

 

14 hits already.

Owens isn't even starting in Charlotte.

 

I think that ship has sailed.

 

 

I'll believe it when I see it.

 

I'd love to see Negron get a shot. He was a 1st rounder IIRC a while back. Obviously he hasnt panned out yet but the talent was apparently there to warrant that high of a pick. So it'd be interesting to see if he could put something together.

The 1920's Yankees were the first to wear numbers. Their numbers corresponded to what spot in the line up they hit in. (Babe Ruth hit #3 in the line up, so he got #3.)

We really need Thornton to go two today.

When's the last time Paulie got off to a good April start? His body language is more animated too.... not sure what that means but he looks great.

 

Also encouraging was the second dong by CQ was basically all arms which hopefully speaks volumes about his wrist strength.

Carrasco in for the 6th inning.

People need to stop beating up the organization over the Owens experience.

 

He's a guy who fits the leadoff bill, and in this climate with that type of guy being rare, you have to take a look.

 

 

But all in all, the organization didnt put him out there in a way that held anyone back. He has barely played major league games for us considering his age.

 

Everyone says what if he didnt get injured? Trust me, after the spring CQ had, nothing was going to hold him off somehow getting into that lineup after a little while.

I am pretty sure Restovich would the first OF called up from Charlotte. Has major league experience and is the best we got in the minors (who's ready), which is sad.

He's won one game and was a big part in winning a second game and had a pretty big walk today. That ain't too shabby.

ughhhhhhh strikes please

THROW STRIKES!!!!

please keep em behind D.J.

How does he fit the leadoff bill, because he is fast. Lots of fast guys in the minors, in fact there are a lot that are faster than Owens.
