BECKHAM!!!!

TAKE THE FIRST f***ING PITCH BECKHAM.

Torres was pretty good tonight.

This season would be so much easier to take if Mitchell wasn't hurt. Remember how we all used to watch Beckham tear it up, while things were falling apart here? That was an encouraging sign for the future, little did we know...

Nice ab from Teahen.

Mostly watching Lincecum against the D-backs now.

Liquidate it, Kenny. Everything must go.

The Fall of Beckham. What a sad story.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 20, 2010 -> 10:31 PM) He is a very talented pitcher. He hasn't been too good this year. He's a slow starter. I have faith.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 20, 2010 -> 10:29 PM) Floyd? he's a mental midget. He's also a very good pitcher.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 20, 2010 -> 10:28 PM) So why praytell is Rios who is one of our only good hitters not playing tonight. Is this so Ozzie can get his toy Kotsay in the lineup. The rotating DH demands that one of our only good hitters sits three times a week.

I want to keep Peavy, Floyd, Danks, Beckham, and Rios. Everyone else can go elsewhere. I'd prefer to keep Thornton too, but as i have doubts we'll be able to resign him we need to maximize value.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2010 -> 10:18 PM) You use purge in every post you make...Lost fan, are you? Lost has been on my mind lately, and i am a huge fan. I think purge is the right word for this though. It's not exactly a firesale, just an elimination of parts.

I'd prefer Reinsdorf to finish his pitch to Lebron, and then focus on ordering KW to purge payroll, get younger, and fix this s***.

I'd like to see us play out the second-half with a young core of players. I think we need to purge the majority of the veterans on this team, and eliminate a lot of the 2005 mentality that's still present.

We need to trade him sooner rather then later.

Well, the Andruw Jones good feelings tour didn't last long.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 20, 2010 -> 10:04 PM) cubs probably have the best bench, hitting and pitching coach in baseball...and the worst GM Rothschild is awful.

This needs to stop. We refuse to work counts

KW is made of balls. That's one of the best things about him. No one without a massive amount of balls could have made the Peavy and Rios transactions.

For a team that's struggling to get on-base, we sure swing at a lot of first pitches.

A.J. is the dumbest f***ing player in major league baseball. OZZIEBALL!

Only the White Sox would have a back-up 1b hitting .174 starting at DH and in the 5-hole.

I'm growing a bit tired with the Hawk-Stoney dynamic. Frankly, i think it's a by-product of my frustration with the team. Because normally i love Steve Stone. Stoney keeps making these statments that he obviously thinks are really clever. Like "Matsui looked like his old self at the start of the year, now he's just old." It's like he's winking at the damn camera.

Really, Peavy? Really?
