QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 08:34 PM) If I never see a bunt again, I will be happy. If you don't think someone can have a productive at bat against a pitcher, either don't play him or don't bat him 6th. I agree with AJ not being in the lineup, but to blame Ozzie for the Rays IBB of Rios is unfair IMO.

QUOTE (3E8 @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 08:19 PM) Do you have that exact pic of that girl saved on your computer Nope. It is her default picture on Facebook though, not sure if that makes any difference... The one I see as his Avatar is a cropped version of the picture above ^^.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 08:29 PM) He just shouldn't be playing tonight, especially facing two righties in the remainder of the series. By bunting AJP, Ozzie made it so easy for Tampa to not face Rios and go after the lefty. That's quite a stretch to blame Ozzie for the Rays intentionally walking Rios. You (and others) probably would have b****ed if ozzie let AJ hit, and then he GIDP. I have no problem with Ozzie having AJ bunt. It's not like AJ was likely to have a productive AB anyway.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 08:27 PM) No, Rios Wasn't Rios intentionally walked?

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 08:15 PM) More great coaching this season...it's like Ozzie's doing everything in his power to take the bat out of our best hitter's hands in big spots. Who? AJ?

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 08:01 PM) I see the scoreboard in his post... I have no idea what is going on.......????

QUOTE (qwerty @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 07:54 PM) That is f***ing weird. The cubs bulls*** is what i see. Did you just try and post a picture of the scoreboard? Because your post shows her face again. lol, wtf....?

So what do you guys see? Because this is what I see in his avatar..... She is a friend of mine whom I work with, and I can't figure out how the hell I see her picture in his avatar, but yet he sees the Cubs scoreboard.... What do YOU guys see?

Who exactly is Price attempted to pick off with AJ batting right now? Gameday says he has thrown 2 pickoff attempts.

QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 07:18 PM) uh,... is anyone able to watch this on tv? It says it' supposed to be on CSN+ for me, which supposed to be channel 53 (regular CSN is 37) but nothing's on 53, just a blue screen. Is CSN+ a HD channel or something? Same thing at home for me. It's just a blue screen. Comcast decided to cut that channel for no reason.

So the Reds literally GAIN about $140k from this suspension? They don't lose any starts from him, and they save a little bit of money. That's f***ed up.

So, he is suspended until about June, but is out w/ injury until July anyway........ umm.....ok?

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 02:31 PM) We should spell his correctly in the title. Spell his what? DON'T LEAVE US HANGING LIKE THIS!!

So the Reds traded away a drug addict, only to get a guy who gets suspended for drugs. Hhmmm.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 20, 2010 -> 01:15 PM) I hope so. That would be my best case scenario. I agree. I hate him.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 19, 2010 -> 09:39 PM) Nice, first bomb of the year, and he's gradually building his average back up. Just like last year.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 19, 2010 -> 02:22 AM) Haha. They actually have an agreement with a local fresh fish market or something along those lines to sell octopi to fans going to the Joe. Seems like 1) it would be extremely awkward, weird, annoying to carry around an octopus w/ you during the game 2) PETA would be pissed off about this.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 19, 2010 -> 02:49 PM) So I'm stupid as well as thousands of other people? I am advanced with computers and work for a company that makes a top flight anti virus solution and still I've had issues with my PC's. I would actually say people who dive into the actual abilities of computers run into issues because of these things. My mom has a PC and has never had an issue because she does email and AOL. I use a PC at work and its one of the most locked down networks you'll ever see as well as a very managed piece of hardware. I've still had to fix OS issues as well as application problems. I'm pretty sure that the IT staff of a multi-billion dollar company isn't stupid. Ok, people who are great drivers get into car accidents too. But if you are a careless driver, you are more likely to get into crashes more often. Just because you have had a PC problem does not mean you are stupid, but not being stupid greatly reduces your chances. As long as you are not stupid w/ your computer and have a good virus protection, you SHOULD be fine.

I would have done the first 2 trades.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 19, 2010 -> 12:28 AM) Pods is on fire. Seven stolen bases, playing great baseball. But ooh he's a bad baserunner. He got picked off a lot last year. That of course did not cost us the pennant. We could use's Pods' multi-hit potential right now. The guy has some pop in his bat. Juan does not. Watch how shallow outfielders play Juan. It is almost embarrassing. Yeah, at least Pods could hit it deep enough and hit out enough HR to makes the outfielders respect him.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 18, 2010 -> 11:55 PM) An Octopus was thrown onto the ice in the Detroit game.. That usually is great news for Detroit over the years. Problem is... the Octopus wound up having its legs crack when it was thrown. (I think it was its legs, or head, don't think thats ever happened before, but I'm not sure) Boom.. Detroit loses. What?!!? They actually throw real octopuses on the ice!?!? I thought they sold toy ones that people throw on the ice..... ?

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 18, 2010 -> 11:06 PM) Pretty sure it was glove side. Looked glove side to me, and off the post. EDIT: I meant it looked STICK side to me.

Sox players all at the game tonight. I saw Beckham (who was being interviewed), Lucy, Peavy, and Danks.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 18, 2010 -> 07:33 PM) it's kind of ridiculous to blame the game on niemi when we only scored one goal with our offense. that's the bigger problem. Yeah, Niemi is the last person I blame. I mean, if this was Huet in net, 4-1 would be a likely score, and none of those would have been empty net goals.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 16, 2010 -> 11:30 PM) It was a 2-1 game. Yes, I understand there were 2 empty netters, but they were not just empty netters that were given, the Hawks still had to once again lose control of the puck and not stop the Preds from scoring. The defense played awful in the 3rd last night.
