Vazquez is 2-0 against Min this season, although our offense had to pick him up. We have hit Baker pretty well as well. We'll see. I like how our pitchers match up. I'm still kind of surprised Gardy didn't push Liriano back a day.

QUOTE (shipps @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 03:56 PM) Cubs fans are Bears fans!What are you talking about?! I'm a Bears fan, not a Cubs fan. One team has a different history than the other. Two different attitudes. I also know Cub fans who are Packer fans. Cub fans outside of Chicago probably aren't Bears fans.

QUOTE (shipps @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 03:52 PM) Being a Bear fan has to feel alot like being a Cub fan,I really believe this. Nah. 80 year difference and I think we Bear fans are more realistic than Cub fans.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 03:34 PM) Hey Peanut, you stupid f***. Thanks for the loss. Stupid to retaliate. Sucks that a b****, like Trublood, gets to win this game.

God forbid we give the ball to Forte on 3rd and 2 to ice the game. Idiotic play calling again to maybe cost us the game.

Wow, thought it was a fly out when he hit it.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 01:35 PM) Minnesota is not that good of a baseball team. This attitude that they are going to sweep us is pathetic. I like the pitching match ups in our favor. Let's just win this game and than go to Minn up 3 in the loss column.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 01:34 PM) You have to remember this is the first time Ramirez has played a 162 game season. He was playing essentially mid to high A ball last season in Cuba. He'll be fine. Nobody could be worse than Royce Clayton, by the way. It will be fun watching Alexei run from SS to foul ground down the right field line to get pop ups that Dye and Kong can't get.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 01:50 PM) Has anyone looked at Swisher's away stats this year? Holy cow, he f***ing sucks. .185 batting average and an OPS not close to .600. Home, away, neutral. Bad.

Don't let that 5.02 ERA fool you. Duckworth is Bob Gibson in disguise.

Love getting ahead 0-2, than getting it to 3-2. How many times do our pitchers do this?

QUOTE (Sox It To Em @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 01:24 PM) TB has runners on second and third, one out. Bags loaded.

QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 11:58 AM) The Bears offense is horrendous. I don't want to think about what it'd be without Forte. It's been pretty bad for the past decade minus 2006. Bring back Jim Miller.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 10:31 AM) Just f***ing win, that and a Twins loss would drop the magic number to 4. Then all that is necessary is 2 wins in Minnesota to clinch the division or 1 win in Minny to go along with 1 win vs Cleveland and just 1 Twins loss to the Royals or 1 win in Minny and 2 wins vs CLE. That final game vs Detroit should not be played. No f***ing excuses. This.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Sep 20, 2008 -> 07:47 PM) LOL> You guys are nuts. I just said I'm glad we gave it a run. Optimism isn't allowed when we lose.

Dye and Thome both miss hanging breaking balls.

If we were down 9-0, I'd laugh if we threw at Olivo.

Any chance they are firing Hawk in the off season and not bringing it up until then?

Thought he was safe but God forbid we get a good replay.

Alexei, you damn rally killer.

Here we come, boy!

Go Danks

Way to hustle over there Boone.

Nice try, Gavin. You could of given up only 1 run and probably wouldn't of mattered.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Sep 20, 2008 -> 06:48 PM) I fail to see your point. What's that got to do with anything? If we score in the first, we lead 1-0. Who knows if Gavin gives up 3 runs if he has a lead. Maybe he gives up more. Who knows.
