Youk - He Gawn. Papi - He Gawn. Bay - HE GAWN!

Adam Dunn is just a younger version of Thome right now. He's having a career year, but you'd basically be overpaying for him since you can get similar production out of Thome (less homers and walks, but similar hitters). I'm not so sure about Matsui. Abreu, I do like because he's more of a doubles hitter than a home run hitter. We need more doubles hitters on this team. They're more consistent and Abreu also gets on base a lot. Delgado will pretty much give you the numbers Thome gave us this year.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Sep 5, 2009 -> 03:28 PM) we should be trying to steal as much as possible with the combination of Wakefield/Martinez. Martinez is atrocious. Wakefield throws 68. I don't see a reason not to.

Alexei Ks. Nice inning.

Now Getz steals second.

His recent cold stretch might have had something to do with fatigue.

Getz is on fire.

Another walk. Let's go Q. Don't swing too hard.

2-0. Konerko comes through.

Nice bunt by A.J. Konerko has good numbers against Wakefield. Way to put runners in scoring position for him.

Getz, Alexei, and Pods should have a field day with Wakefield today. 1 SB already.

Beckham has a sore back...hmm. Nix is his replacement.

Is Wakefield on a pitch count?

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 4, 2009 -> 10:16 PM) I like 1, 6, & 10 6 is my favorite due to running back depth. Actually, team 3 is my least favorite. The receiver depth isn't great, but the RBs really swayed me. Plus, this league doesn't really value QBs that much (40 yards per point? Ouch). So Having Warner as a 1 doesn't seem too bad.

It's funny. We scored 9 off Boston on the same day a week ago.

Getz's OBP is approaching where it should be for him to start leading off. Keep it up.

Great win. Good present for Hawk on his b-day. Freddy was good, Hudson with a nice debut, offense tee'd off that pervert Paul Byrd.

I really like team 3. Love the depth. Plus, Jones-Drew + Slaton at RB is a hell of a combo. Team 10 is my second favorite I guess. Nothing really stands out to me outside of team 3.

Hudson threw 24 pitches. 17 strikes. That's pretty good control.

Daniel Hudson mowin' em down.

Fields has actually become pretty patient. It's too bad that his patience just leads to an eventual strike out.

Let's go T-Flow.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 4, 2009 -> 09:31 PM) He didn't? Jeez. You are a tough cookie. He just wasn't very good. He gave us some good moments like his catch versus the Twins. Might as well cheer him. It's a class act by our crowd!!! I just didn't think enough people liked him for a cheer that big. He didn't try hard back in 06 and 07. Remember the not going to the AFL thing? Yeah...

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 4, 2009 -> 09:29 PM) We're winning so big ... he tried hard with the Sox ... just didn't work out. Might as well cheer him. It's called "class" by our fans. WE need more class in sports today. He didn't try all that hard in the beginning of his career...

HE GAWN! Way to strike out BA.
