Well, Mark Teahen has reached base 0 times since going on the DL. Heh.

 

What I mean is, Vizquel is obviously better defensively, and his bat looks as good as Mark, ever since he started getting playing time.

 

 

I still can't believe Vizquel turned around a 94-95 mph fastball, even though he was in a fastball count.

I know. I was giving you s***. Omar has played well lately. I don't think he should be confused for an every day player, though, whereas I think Teahen is at least a fringe every day player.

Both CQ and Gordon flew out to deep center? Anyone watching let me know if they actually hit it well?

I love when we get shut down by a 6+ ERA pitcher..

I thought Beckham hit the ball well, didn't see CQ's.

We're up 1-0!

 

Let's not overlook the fact Scherzer is a different pitcher than his ERA shows, after coming back from AAA.

Why does Teahen get so much hate? He was coming around with the stick before hitting the DL..

TCQ was right on it, but guess what??? A bit off the end of the bat, he took the guy nearly to the wall however. Again he's too far from the plate. GB had a good swing on it but was just a hair under it....

To br fair, Max is a very talented young pitcher. This isn't Jake Jakubakas shutting us down.

No hate, I was simply stating the fact Vizquel has been doing a very decent (if not better) job replacing him.

what kind of odds could i have gotten on vizquel and lilly have the same # of hrs as beckham!!

Wow. 5th inning already? Fast game.

Detroit sucks too. Minny is going to run away with this division

After the first inning, the Sox have been swinging very early in the count to avoid getting themselves in 2 strike situations where Scherzer will K them.

 

It would be an effective strategy...if you could actually hit him early in the count. Instead it's just making his innings go faster and take fewer pitches.

Did anyone else see this from Cowley? "Peavy just said that if he felt the Sox were going to go young and rebuild all over, he would asked to be moved." I love Peavy, but he needs to stop talking about this. http://twitter.com/cst_sox/status/15858542576

Yeah were already ripping him in the Catch All Thread

I agree with you Bolt.

Agreed. I went to the game that Thornton got lit up, but was still not that impressed with the Kitties. Minnesota is just too good. Also, there were these annoying Tiger fans in our section that kept chanting "eat 'em up Tigers, eat 'em up" Never heard that one before. Also, near the end of the game another moron starting chanting "Let's go Red Wings". I was like..wtf? Idiots.

Tell the idiot to start pitching like a man and then maybe someone would consider taking on that ridiculous contract. Or, better yet, agree to rip up the contract and go on his merry way to wherever the F*&K he wants....

Alexei with our 3rd hit of the game.

It would also be an effective strategy if you had guys who can actually consistently get hits, which we cannot.

Alexei is a mediocre base stealer.

I'm betting that whatever Peavy actually said, it sounds worse when it gets compressed into a twitter post and removed from the context of the discussion.

 

For example, if the question was asked as "If the Sox give up for a couple years and want to do a complete rebuild, would you be open to a trade and waive your NTC?" and Peavy answered "Yeah, in that case I'd want to be traded, but they're not going to do that", the tweet with his answer could sound a lot worse.
