QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 12:08 PM) The biggest difference that I have seen is no one recognizes his change up again. I don't know if he was flying open to quickly on it, or slowing up his delivery to give it away before, but it isn't happening now. Hawk says he's bad when he gets the change up in the zone and good when he gets it down. Last night he was in the bottom of the zone with all his pitches and his cutter was really moving.

QUOTE (SI1020 @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 12:12 PM) I agree that it could be a good deal, I'm just not ready to call it that yet. I need to see a lot more of Stewart and Frasor hasn't been all that great. So did you like 2 more months of Jackson then not resigning with the Sox or Teahen ? If Frasor walks we get the same thing we would have got for Jackson walking. 4+ years of Stewart >>>> 2 months of Jackson.

Danks ! Alejandro ! PK ! No Viciedo .

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 08:46 PM) Did Trayvon just high-five a fan? Yup

Rios cleanup ? Can the guy be rewarded much more for his stellar play?

I'll be there with my 25 yr old daughter. 1st row right field line near the corner. Black w/ white pinstripes 2005 champs cap with white brim. Dark navy blue shirt and khaki shorts. Chris Sale like body tall and thin salt and pepper goatee .Bringing a mitt to battle with Angels outfielders on any balls in the stands.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 23, 2011 -> 08:27 PM) Can't wait for Ozzie to say it's not fair to sit Pierre down the stretch when we're out of contention and not make Viciedo a full-time starter If he's ever called up.

Time for a De Aza blast.

Sox hanging in there. Nice job Juan.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 23, 2011 -> 08:21 PM) He left early and he slid over home plate. I wasn't sure if he touched home either but I think if you're over the bag the umps generally will give you the touch unless its blatantly obvious you're way above it.

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Aug 23, 2011 -> 08:19 PM) Rios comes in too fast and catches the ball flat-footed. terrible fundamentals. Caught it too high and on the wrong side also. Should be caught on the throwing hand side.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 23, 2011 -> 05:28 AM) That was also 40-50 years ago when Aaron was considered big, and Lilli is considered an elf. I'm just guessing but I'd say it was about average size for a baseball player back then. Lilli only facially looks like an Elf.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 22, 2011 -> 01:23 PM) I think it's pretty easy to understand Lilly's power surge. He STILL has a home run mentality in a skinny lil body. He is trying to pop home runs every time he bats and to his credit, he does have a home run swing. Unlike Dunn, he connects once in a while and with that big bat and uppercut swing ... home run. Darndest thing I've ever seen, a skinny guy like that with a better home run stroke than a big guy like Dunn. I think you under estimate Lilibridge's size. He's a solid guy,very strong. He's 5'11" 185 lbs. Hank Aaron was listed at 6' 180 lbs. Very Similar.

Gavin, Lilli, DeAza, Flowers. We have depth. Now add Viciedo please he's getting hot again.

22 hits. PK with 4 . He's really amazing . Looked much improved running and extended his hitting streak to 12. Morel with 4 also 2 doubles. De Aza 3 hits 2 triples. Flowers hits the ball damn hard when he connects. 5 triples most by a Sox team since 1920 and increased their season total from 8 to 13 in one night. Juan with a HR and the key hit that ended the marathon. Now just a 1/2 game behind the Indians. Just a crazy game and one that was frustrating and a joy to watch.

Wooooooooooooooooooo ! Pierre !!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 10:25 PM) GORDON GOT LUCKY AND f*** HE PULLED UP COULDA HAD THE RECORD I BET WE STRAND HIM. Never make the 1st out at 3rd. Smart play actually. Already in scoring position.

Morel 4/6 getting close to .260

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 10:08 PM) Another really mediocre approach by Alexei. No way should he be chasing a 0-0 low slider like that. I thinkk he forgot both his hits went oppo and he pulled all his outs.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:58 PM) Frasor's been a disaster for the Sox so far And Stewart hasn't been and saved money and got rid of Teahen. I'd call that a win.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:51 PM) That sure looked like it could have been a strike. Again, nice to know we wasted Edwin Jackson to get Frasor. You can't seriously be harping about that . Stewart's already done what Jackson could do and we have him under control and got a guy who if we let walk gives us just as much as Jackson would have.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:44 PM) Sookie or Snooki? I'd watch Man-Soo Lee streaking if it meant going over .500 for once this season. LOL I 'd agree IF we never go below .500 again this season.

5 triples and a Pierre HR. We have to win this. Cleveland bullpen nearing the end of the line.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 16, 2011 -> 09:19 PM) No excuse for that Lillibridge ass should be benched for a week................Getting above .500 should NEVER be this FN hard! Maybe that wasn't on Lilli ,could be Tyler missed a steal sign.

Holy s*** did Tyler miss a sign ?
