QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 03:38 PM) I wonder if they try unloading Zambrano in the next few days. Not that I'd want him. They might, but the Ricketts better be prepared to eat a whole bunch of money on that contract.

Great outing Big Z!!!

Peavy rockin' and rollin'

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 03:29 PM) Aramis Ramirez is really hitting .168 in late June??? Oh yeah. He was the one player making me feel better about the struggles of CQ(not anymore) and Beckham. He's been worse than awful

Best waiver claim EVER

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 03:15 PM) Extra bases for Piere! Pierre? Extra bases? Is that a typo?

Good start JFP

He Gone! Sit down rookie

ESPN and their live updating group standings can go f*** themselves. I can figure out how many points each team will have if the games finish with the present scores. You don't need to constanly update it and confuse the heck out of me.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 11:00 AM) Boring set of morning games because there was basically no chance of Ivory Coast making up 9 goals. The past 2 WC's it seems like everyone was excited about the Ivory Coast and they fizzled out. Since Ghana has gotten out of their group 2 times in a row, maybe in 2014 Ghana will be the Africa's most hyped team. Excited about the Chile-Spain game in a few hours. Should be very interesting. With the Swiss playing Honduras, you can end up with three teams tied at 6 pts. Spain can't mess around and really needs to play for the win, Chile needs to give up as few goals as possible if they can't get the draw. Switzerland is not known for scoring a lot, but will need to get one or two.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 10:19 AM) Benchwarmer. With Ozzie as our manager, I don't see that happening.

QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 10:13 AM) IF Gordon got sent down then why do people want Viciedo there? Put Viciedo at DH with Omar at 3B and if you can't stand Lillibridge at 2B then pick up a temporary stop gap. Why risk the bad D again? Besides, I don't know why we just don't leave Beckham up. Even with his current struggles he still offers greater offensive potential at 2B than anything else we have at 2B, and his defense next to Alexei has been stronger than Viciedo's would be at third or Hudson/Retherford/etc. at 2B. Lilli is the only guy we've got ready who may be able to play better D, but our current Gordon is still better than that with the bat. Gordon will be back, and it'll come soon. People around him are hitting and getting on base and sooner than later he'll start settling down and getting the hits he needs to build himself back up. Where is Mark Kotsay gonna play then?

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 09:43 AM) Half of the AL teams have losing records. There are 5 AL teams under .500 overall, 4 of them have losing interleague records & Seattle is only 8-7. TB & Min are the surprises in the under .500 interleague crowd. Other than that, the AL's s***ty teams just suck no matter what league they play.

QUOTE (SuperSteve @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 09:54 AM) Looks like everyone ran out of steam in this thread. Ivory Coast up 2-0 at half, I'd like to see them put up six in the second half with Portugal losing to Brazil. I want to see Drogba and Co. go through. They started out well with 2 goals in 20 minutes, but haven't been able to get it back in the net since. Portugal did score 6 in the second half vs. Korea though.

JFP career vs. CHC - 9 GS, 4-2, 2.72 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, .245 BAA Z career vs. CWS - 13 G, 11 GS, 5-3, 4.56 ERA, 1.36 WHIP, .230 BAA

He lost 6-0, 6-3, 6-2 in just about 75 minutes. Zero aces after having 112 in the marathon match. Didn't see that coming.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 07:59 AM) A guy in the bar I was at last night got really angry when I brought up the WHIP stat - he said "they all stink when they first come up, that doesn't mean anything, you don't know what you're talking about" Were you drinking with Randy Williams last night?

Alexei

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 07:07 AM) Crap, just realized they start at 3, why are they playing a day game on a Friday? They always play this game at 3 to avoid the rowdy Friday night crowd. Tommorrow night is actually a night game due to Fox's request, but I think its the first time in the series there has been a game on a Saturday night.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 11:18 PM) I guess, but people are poor and tickets are expensive. You can't blame em for pickin a good'ne I get you on that, but I was thinking about the large amount of Cubs fans that would buy tickets either way as well.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 02:02 AM) I think he should receive serious all star consideration with Rios and Paulie, but it'll just be Rios IMO. If Feliz, Soriano, Valverde, Soria, Rauch, Rivera, & Bailey are all named to the All-Star team, then after that, yeah, Bobby does deserve serious consideration.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 09:41 PM) You neglected to mention he is Southpaw/kid friendly. Don't underestimate how important being Southpaw friendly is!

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 09:44 PM) Was at the game today. Great crowd, great game there was an atmosphere there that was incredible. The crowd does sound awesome. 31k is ridiculous for a Thursday day game. Kinda sucks that this weekend is vs. the North Siders, cause those games are sell outs even if we are 25 games back, not 2.5. It would be nice to see the crowd that shows up against like KC or BAL or a team like that.

SS2k5, you are the man!!! Keep up the hot streak!
