the Sox have probably 6 guys in the lineup tonight capable of stealing second off Wakefield. If they could just get some simple singles, most could advance themselves into scoring position. They need to stop all swinging for the fences and just try for a simple hit for now

lmao, allstaralomar, do u mind if i use that sig for other message boards i post at?
-
I don't know anything about Mauer other than that he was picked ahead of Prior as the #1 pick in the 2001 draft.
well the only reason for that is because the Twins knew they would not be able to sign Prior

can Reed play center? cuz if so, i could see Reed and Rowand in a battle in ST.

Reed finished 3rd behing Greinke (sp?) (KC)
but i dont get how Mauer won it over Reed.
look at their stats (both combined single-A and AA):
Reed: .373 BA, 464 AB, 88 R, 173 H, 249 TB, 35 2B,
Reed: 4 3B, 11 HR, 95 RBI, 70 BB/ 36 K, 45 SB, 3 E
Mauer: .339 BA, 509 AB, 73 R, 172 H, 221 TB, 30 2B
Mauer: 2 3B, 5 HR, 85 RBI, 49 BB/ 49 K, 3 SB, 3 E
Look at that. In fewer at bats, Reed had MORE runs, hits, total bases, doubles, triples, home runs, rbi's, walks, and stolen bases. Reed also had almost a 3:1 BB:SO ratio whereas Mauer had a 1:1. Reed hit 30+ points higher as well as hitting .409 in a pitchers park in AA. Reed and Mauer both had 3 errors.
I mean ya, Mauer had a good year, but that year by Reed was better in EVERY SINGLE category. Thats why i think Reed should have won

Manuel is an idiot.
i second that

I wonder where we would be if we had the real Koch. What a boost that would be.
we'd most likely be 5 or 6 games up in first
-
We can't let Stewart beat us here. I wouldn't be opposed to walking him and pitching to Rivas.
i dont know, if you look at how Jon has fared against Stewart, why not pitch to him? Stewart was 3-19 agianst Garlnad coming into today's game
but despite that, ya i'd rather face Rivas too

So except for the fact that me and PA aren't there to join in, nothing has changed
pretty much, lol
the trolls have calmed down a lot tho. TBC is making his first appearance in a while and believe it or not Blanksy's appearances lately have been few and far between
I believe it. We are winning! Why would blanks be hanging around. Wait til our season is almost over, then he will be back. Unless of course we win the WS, and then he will be telling us how we are doomed next year
And I owe TBC a tweeking anyway. Mr Attendace is due a plate full of crow as his Indians attendance is less than the Sox, and down 50% over two years. That asshole laughed at me when I told him that Cleveland was a bunch of bandwagon fans. now I have my proof.
so you really havent even been stopping by occasionally just to check?

Sox vs Santana
we havent seen too much of him, but from what we have seen, we have a few who have hit him well, and a few who havent hit him well at all
Good:
Lee: 4-11, .364 BA, 2 2B, 1 HR, 1.235 OPS
Thomas: 3-6, .500 BA, 2B, HR, 3BB/0K, 1.833 OPS
Rowand: 3-8, .375 BA, HR, 1.125 OPS
Everett: 3-3, 2.000 OPS
Ordonez: 4-11, .364, 2 HR, 1.294 OPS
Bad:
Valentin: 1-9, .111 BA, 1BB/5K, .311 OPS
Konerko: 1-5, .200 BA, .533 OPS
S. Alomar: 1-5, .200 BA, 2B, 0BB/2K, .600 OPS
so despite Santana's success this year, he hasnt exactly pitched well against our "core" hitters
Twins vs Garland
Garland has actually held most of the Twins in check in his prior meetings with them
Good:
Jones: 11-26, .423 BA, 2 2B, .944 OPS
Koskie: 11-24, .458 BA, 5 2B, HR, 1.292 OPS
Pierzynski: 5-19, .263, 1 2B, 2 HR, .932 OPS
Bad:
Guzman: 4-23, .174 BA, .414 OPS
Hunter: 4-22, .182 BA, 2B, HR, 1BB/5K, .572 OPS
Mientkiewicz: 4-20, .200 BA, 3B, 2BB/6K, .604 OPS
Stewart: 2-19, .105 BA, .255 OPS
Rivas: 4-17, .235 BA, .585 OPS
Mohr: 3-12, .250 BA, 0BB/3K, .500 OPS
So looking at how we do against Santana and how the Twins do against Garland, although i'm not awfully confident, it gives me more confidence that we can win this game tonight

after getting 2 runs, Colon needs to get through the bottom half of this inning quickly to keep the momentum with us
