I hate Joe Morgan so much.

I never knew Strasburg had trouble going.

6.5 games in June is more than doable. We just need to rape this IL schedule. Starting with tonight.

Jones leading off eh? Looks like Ozzie is getting progressive.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 04:14 PM) Dayton Moore was a protege of John Schuerholtz. I doubt the Royals fans would mind giving him to the Sox. The day that guy gets a real job with the Sox is the day I stop watching this team. We'll be promised with lots of OBP and good defense, and then get a Mike Jacobs and Jason Kendall instead.

QUOTE (IowaSoxFan @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 10:40 AM) What does Hahn bring to the table? His only experience in a ML front office is negotiating player contracts from all I can see, and that is not a skill that is irreplaceable in the front office. What qualifications did Theo Epstein have when he took over the Red Sox at age 28 in 2002? Believe me, Hahn is qualified for the job. You don't need to be 50 years old to be a GM.

QUOTE (spiderman @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 01:21 PM) That's a good thng for the White Sox. We're playing them on Friday anyhow. I don't see the difference.

Gavin Floyd is the NL-tamer.

So if we win every series and maybe sweep one in the next 16, we'll be good?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 10:06 PM) Does UZR even apply to catchers? Nope. They use Plus/Minus to evaluate catcher defense at this point.

QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 09:56 PM) I have a very bad feeling were gonna get screwed for the future with this easy stretch in the schedule.. Like what happened in late August last year?

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 07:31 PM) Because I should be consistent...... OF Gerardo Parra. Oh great, another guy who can't get on base.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 11:25 AM) I'm not sure how much plate discipline you learn putting up a 1.250 OPS in the minors because you've already proven you can hit big league pitching. He's never put up an OPS above .900 in the minors though... Mostly due to his low OBP.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 10:56 AM) And if you want to genuinely develop a guy, he needs to get to that point and learn to adjust himself. Or go back to the minors and learn some plate discipline.

Can somebody finally kick Carlos Silva's ass? Please tell me Q will be starting today.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 01:51 AM) Your new manager will be Buddy Bell or Cora. Big deal. Keep Ozzie. Sports are fun. Ozzie is fun. Ozzie also likes hitting Mark Kotsay 5th and mismanages the bullpen every other game.

He said on 6 times in a row, lmao. Anyways, I don't think Colvin should be playing everyday, he should be platooning. The guy's not real good against left handed pitching. And to me, he still lacks plate discipline. He chases 38% of balls outside the zone. Once he becomes more and more exposed, he will struggle and the league will adjust.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jun 11, 2010 -> 06:22 PM) I don't. Both teams pulled out draws against better teams. Forlan is extremely dangerous up front. I think Uruguay advances from the group. I second this notion.

Well, the pitching's been real good the last three games. That's where it starts.

Well, the Cubs DO suck.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 11, 2010 -> 03:54 PM) That a boy Carlos! After all this, I still love you and wish my wife would let me name our unborn son Quentin. Just point to Quentin Tarantino and she might just say yes.

Quentin's going to end up hitting his home runs. The concern will be how bad his average will be...

And Peavy says, "Cubs fans, go f*** yourselves".

A.J. Pierzynski is still the Cubs fan's worst nightmare.
