that is not a scary lineup.

not saying they won’t beat ours. just saying I’m not afeared of it.

dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.

Quinlan kills Buehrle

otherwise that would be a ridiculously weak infield… I couldn’t even pick Brown or Rodriguez out of a lineup

Ball in the dirt, 5 bounces to paulie

“As Cabrera did that intentionally,” says DJ. And they were all over Uribe for bobbling both DP balls while going easy on OC’s misplay. How about just covering for both or admitting they both suck instead of playing the marketing game.

OC I have no argument, but Crede? He had the throwsies the first couple weeks but since then he’s been rock solid.

Agree on Crede.

Even OC had been much better the last few week—hopefully today is just a case of showing off for the ex-girlfriend.

defensive efficiecy is literally balls in play converted into outs

while BABIP is balls in play credited as hits

What’s the difference between reaching on a single or an error? not much, but enough to make the numbers not 1-the other related..
