Big hit is not in the cards until EJ pitches.

How many stolen bases allowed in that time 30? 5th place hitter he is not.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jun 17, 2011 -> 02:25 PM) I hope he can play the outfield at a Carlos Lee level. That's all I'm asking from the guy. Lee was a lawn ornament in LF............DV cannot be any worse.

Do what you want Balta move it, delete it some people got better things to do than go thru 18 pages of posts!

Where is Ribbie & Rhubarb when you need them they should double suplex Southpaw...........that would be more offense than most Sox home games.

Cora he can go with Guillen he brings nothing new to the table.

Padres sent LHP Aaron Poreda outright to Triple-A Tucson. Poreda was designated for assignment by the Padres earlier this week and passed through waivers easily. He'll remain in the bullpen at Triple-A. Per Rotoworld

QUOTE (lord chas @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 07:59 PM) can anyone enlighten me why viciedo is not being called up? is it to do with options or his contract? Sox just have too many studs and DV could not possibly replace one............KW and OG are idiots.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:42 PM) Yes, losing both of these games sucked. Yes, we suck against Minny. Yes, Ozzie sucks as an in-game manager. Here are the facts I'd like to focus on: 1) Interleague is here, and we rake against the NL. 2) We have only 4 games, all at home, against the Twins until August 5th, when the Twins will likely be way out of it and already taking it apart. They are 4-0 against the Sox and 15 under against everyone else. If you think we will go 0-19 against them, you don't watch enough baseball. 3) No team in the AL Central is good enough to win 90, and probably no team is good enough to win even 88. 4) 23 of our next 41 games are at home. If you think this team is buried, save your breath. As infuriating as it will be, they will be in this thing all year, whether you like it or not, just like every other team has been under the Williams era except for 07. That doesn't mean they have what it takes to win this division, or that this division is even worth winning. There will be a race, and the Sox will be a significant factor in it. f*** the Twins. Let's move on. Let's get to .500 then wake me up!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 03:11 PM) Keep making up stuff to go on with the mob mentality. Making up what the fact this team is enept hitting since June 2006. 5 years of this sos is hardly mob mentality

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 03:08 PM) Really? It sure seemed like he had it when he came up. Nothing like it is today.

Keep defending a worthless hitting coach who teams have sucked since mid 2006 in Y2Kville.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 03:06 PM) If hitting coaches know what they are doing, they aren't the problem. If Gordon Beckham can't listen, he is the problem. Firing Walker because Gordon Beckham has a thick skull is just stupid. GB had no hitch before Walker!

7-28 last 35 vs. Minnesota 6-11 vs. AL Central foes this year 38-51 vs. AL Central foes since Opening Day 2010 Only three runs in four games vs. last-place Minnesota this year Seventh time shut out this season 33-37 overall record Serious threat to AL Central ............NOT!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:26 PM) Why do we care what the Pirates are doing? They haven't done a thing for two decades, and now they're a measuring stick for the Sox because they've had about 15 Top 5 draft picks in a row? That is my point they are over .500 Sox are not shows how f***ed up this organization is top to bottom!

[quote name='caulfield12' date='Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:24 PM' post='2406105' Personally, I'd much rather cheer for Viciedo and Lillibridge...but KW has consistently shown he doesn't care what fans think, nor does Ozzie. I agree but KW is the first one b****ing about fans and attendance! f*** KW!

Guillen should be fired today down 1-0 his moves from 8th inning on were horrid. Down 1-0 43 yr old is your best option with 2 out because you f***ed the pooch as usual. Pirates are over .500 Sox have no clue how to get there!

Beckham regressed last 2 weeks bad.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:12 PM) I think they've done a pretty good job being patient with Morel this year. Hopefully the power will come later. Not even 3 months yet way to early to praise Walker yet.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:09 PM) And the fact that for 5 years we were supporting a guy's house-flipping business instead of international signings. Sox scouting or lack there of was and is a joke aroung MLB.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:06 PM) Greg Walker's biggest weakness as a hitting coach is his inability to help his young players adjust to the league after the league adjusts to them. Happened with Josh Fields, and now it's happening with Beckham. As for the Beckham pick, I'm fine with it. I wanted Smoak first, Beckham second...and not Wallace or Castro. Not one young hitter has progressed under Walker.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:02 PM) Beckham not very good with the barehand. Tough play though.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:00 PM) Doug Davis should have an easy go of it next week You mean CY Davis!

QUOTE (southsidepride15 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 01:59 PM) I too am finally tired of it. Can his a#$ and hire some 7 ft unknown a-hole to physically abuse players when they don't perform. Mr Loyalty JR sees no problem OG will stay as will KW and JR will wonder why crowds at the Cell are so small.
