Sounded like a retirement speech....as if we would get that lucky.

There! Much better!

 

A 1-2-3 inning for Gavin Floyd!

Pierre breaks up the perfect game and the no-hitter with a single up the middle.

 

 

Omar is catching on. Finally getting his AJ-swing on.

Woot Kotsay. What a good ballplayer.

Kotsay approaching the Widger-line.

Pierre now tied for the lead-league in SB! Yes! Rios is tied for 8th too! 2 in the top 10!

Wow, if you dont think Alexei has improve as a SS, check out that last play. Great range and a great throw.

Really good play, the throw was perfect too from such a difficult position.

Reminded me of Don Kessinger, who played short for both the Sox and the Cubs once upon a time. He made many a spectacular play in the whole at short very similar to the one Alexei just did. And more often than not, Kess found a way to get the guy out.

I totally agree. Too bad his bat has regressed considerably since '08. We'd be talking about one of the better all-around shortstops in baseball.

Has it?

 

Alexei could be a .280 10HR 20 doubles kind of guy

Farmer was blasting Gavin in the top of the 2nd there, saying how poorly his pitch selection was out of the stretch.

.677 OPS, 2/4 SB/SBA. He's gotten worse offensively for the second consecutive year.

He's made spectacular plays from the get go. That's never been his problem.

He's always been better winding up. I'm just glad he didn't face Santiago out of the stretch.

Any chance he can get stats back to his rookie season and we will call last year 'soph slump' ?

He'll hit when its warm.

Maybe it's something the Great Don Cooper should work with him on? He's about to get himself in a ton of trouble here. Whenever Gavin pitches from the Floyd, everything seems to go outside to righties.

2 men on Cabrera up and Floyd in the stretch. This sounds so bad it will probably result in 6-4-3
