what are you guys blabbin about, miguel cabrera at 3b is a natural fit!/green /typingtoofasttogetcolors

What's really funny is the Tigers have gotten the worst production out of the DH spot in the American League. It boggles the mind.

Hopefully they give up some good players for Carlos Quentin, who proceeds to throw out his shoulder in celebration.

What's interesting is ticketmaster doesn't show the individual seats available for that series like they do for all the other games. The crowds will be bigger than normal, but I would be shocked at sellouts unless Brooks decides the Sox Save of the Week is the Cubs series.

$50+ on ticketmaster and stubhub? no thanks

To people who place a lot of value on WAR I have questions. How does a part time player like Flowers have a higher WAR than Viciedo a full time player ? What exactly is it that Flowers has done or Viciedo hasn't done that makes this possible?

@MDGonzales

 

Sox released Triple-A Charlotte pitcher Terry Doyle so he could pursue opportunities in Japan.

All the crazy Terry Doyle talk can finally end:

 

Mark Gonzales ‏@MDGonzales

Sox released Triple-A Charlotte pitcher Terry Doyle so he could pursue opportunities in Japan.

Doyle was 6-3 with a 2.83 ERA in 12 games (11 starts) with the Knights.

 

 

 

 

Sounds like his agent does not like the Sox or Kenny.

I'd be kinda pissed too if I was passed over in favor of Axelrod/old-ass Eric Stults/AA pitcher (Quintana) right after being exposed and jerked around via Rule 5

 

 

That's professional baseball though, of course.

I'd be more worried about it if all of baseball hadn't passed on him.

I could be wrong, but I don't think Rule 5 draft picks have to pass through waivers before being offered back to their original team.

I don't think so either, but the fact is if any other team thought much about Doyle, if KW didn't want him, he could have traded him.

Cubs changed rotation around, so Sox won't face Samardzija next week.

Looks like somebody pleaded to the manager so he wouldn't have to get beaned.

That'd be a hell of a beaning considering they're playing on the South Side.

It would be an extremely wild pitch that traveled into the dugout.

Dunn rolled his ankle on Tuesday's homer. Unsure for Thursday. Actually showed us video of how it happened postgame

He did swing pretty damn hard on that one, lol.

Whoever was the genius wishing the Tigers to trade for Quentin... well, they are interested.

I said the Indians or the Tigers...

 

Both need either a LFer or RFer, although replacing Brennan Boesch in RF would be the most likely move.

 

He would replace Johnny Damon in LF for the Indians...a lot depends on their confidence in Hafner and Sizemore coming back.

That CQ guy seems to be a heckuva prospect so maybe we should look at trading for him? Might not take more than a couple iffy minor league pitching prospects to reel him in from the Padres. :unsure:

So is it inevitable that Quentin ends up in our division again?

Just when you thought their defense couldn't get any worse

No, lots of teams will be looking for a bat this trading deadline.
