@JonHeymanCBS: source: in 1 deal, cubs offered to pay down soriano, who CAN STILL HIT, to $3M/yr. (marmol clears 2) http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/blog/jo...out-the-giants

I'd take Soriano at $3M/yr all day. Do work DD!

I can't imagine what we would have to give up to get Soriano for $3MM a year, probably Castellanos and Rondon if the Cubs are going to eat $15 million.

And I hope we don't spend that, we overpaid once this year already.

There's the old Villarreal.

Don't know what the deal is/was but even if we could get Soriano for 10M, and not give up any big prospects it would be huge help for this team.

Well this is setting up to be not all that special...

This is pathetic, I'm so tired of us making terrible pitchers look like aces.

 

[grandy]

Oh boy

Well why not it's been a pretty lousy day so I shoulda figured this game would suck. Baltimore is 49-0 when leading after 7 innings. i'm just going to go ahead and predict total completion to this shitty day and say we get shut out for only the 3rd time in two years and the white soxs will come back and win taking us back to 2.5 because that's just the kind of day it's been.

Gives up a hit to a lefty, and now here comes a righty.....shoot me now.

 

[servinthed]

Delmon's .600 OPS and countless double plays in the 5/6 spot are killing this team. DFA.

 

[tigermud]

Just when you think it can't get any worse, Coke followed by pukerton. LOL. Jim knows Baltimore is 49-0 when leading after 7 innings so he musta just figured f'd it. Hey is Toby back up here helping out Lloyd yet.

Trout has seen his one-time .353 batting average drop 14 points this month.

That motherfuckersonofawhore

Make them pay Prince.

 

[servinthed]

Nice single by Jhonny, but why the fuck was he trying to get to second.

 

[tigermud]

And JP gets caught in a run down, you stupid idiot Delmon was going to hit one out for the lead!

 

[Thumb]

That was a great hit, and then terrible baserunning...killed our 2 out rally.


Brookens has to take some of the heat for that, he should have been yelling at Peralta to stop.

 

[kalinecountry]

Jackson with a line drive single to right on a 98 mph letter high fastball,

Infante grounder over the bag at third throw to first and out on a close play,

Jackson to second,

Cabrera gets hit in the arm at 97, that sure seemed deliberate for Miggy stepping out of the box, you f'kn pos strop,

Fielder k's swinging,

Peralta wild pitch hits the back stop richochets over to the first base line and ffstrop fields it runners to 2nd and 3rd, line drive single over second runners score, Peralta caught in a rundown,

FU strop,

3 - 2,

 

[jdbaker1]

sux just got 2, still down 5-4

 

[spockmaster]

im so pissed off right now. we had 10 baserunners against one of the worst pitchers in baseball AND WE COULDNT SCORE A SINGLE FUCKING ONE OF THEM??? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS TEAM???

 

[jdbaker1]

Dear Delmon,
Could you please not suck for a change? Thanks.

[tigermud]

Why was he even swinging at that shit, WTF can you do with that pitch? nothing. does he have any particular game plan up there or just swing swing swing.
