Nice effort by Brian. Ehren threw a slowey down the pipe.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I still don't understand why we removed Joey from the 3rd base coach position. He took risks and got burned by good plays, but nothing really dumb like Cox does.

Maggs is about to take Ehren deep.

Stupid ball just hung up. Wasn't that great of a catch.

Well, Alexei is the guy I would want up right now.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 09:40 PM) My argument isnt that Cox did the right thing--- it's that this board is quick to pounce. If he's held up and then we dont score in the inning, Cox is attacked for conservatism. He was touching 3rd as the ball was being thrown in. I don't think anyone would of been pissed if he held him up.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 09:39 PM) The problem with what Cox did wasnt that he started to wave him around, its that he ran up the line so that he couldnt stop Thome once he saw that Joyce got the ball in quickly. If he stays in front of Thome he can put the stop sign up and Thome can get back into third. For some reason he just runs into left field and he cant do anything but watch. I saw that as well, which makes him even worse at his job.

Fire that piece of s*** NOW!

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 09:31 PM) The pitching match-ups for the White Sox are not good at all this weekend. If we do not get walked more than 5 times by Dice-K, I'll be so pissed at our guys.

QUOTE (tommy @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 09:29 PM) Man Adam Russell isn't that bad at all. I like how he gets it and fires. Doesn't take his time like a lot of relievers.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 09:25 PM) vulture's in - we might just steal one If we score 4 in the bottom of the 8th, I may start believing something magical is surrounded Russell.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 09:24 PM) Yeah he wins. 2 for 3 with an rbi. Disregard Jr's 0 for and playing a double into a triple or Javy giving up 5 runs, he has a ton of K's. Fair enough, Give it to Javy than. But swinging away on first pitch after the lead off guy walks is pretty boneheaded.

Idiot of the night award to Juan Uribe.

Zumaya in now means Rodney closing who made us look very bad two nights ago.

Away, Away, Away to Babe Joyce.

Now we put Cabrera on.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 08:07 PM) Vaz is quickly approaching the 5 ERA point. 15 million dollars for that. Wonder if we could dump him on Baltimore or Seattle in the off season. Some team with gullible management.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 08:07 PM) He has a lot of K's. His apologists are still happy with his performance and think the 5 runs are all luck. Like Hawk?

Hate Alexei getting thrown out in that situation but guess it was a worth a shot. Took an on the money throw.

f*** you, Javy.

Awful execution, awful starting pitcher. OC has a 2-0 count and grounds out to SS moving Uribe to 3rd and DJ says "Nice job, Orlando." In that situation, try and hit a liner to the outfield. I'm not looking to manufacture runs with our mental midget on the mound.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 06:59 PM) Chris Williams undergoes back surgery. How long you think until someone posts a full thread on this without noticing I put it here first? Typical. Hope it is just a couple of weeks out. No idea about herniated discs.

Why you pitch to Cabrera, I'll never know. Javy is a mental midget. I may misinterpret this, but I think Hawk is sick of watching Javy screw around up there. He has been complimenting Miner on attacking hitters and not screwing around. Could be a dig at Javy and would hope it is.

I bet the girls beat the boys. Just beating Jimbo's Drinker to the punch.

Favre tells Rachel Nichols that the whole situation is making him exhausted and he just wants to go take a nap. GMAFB
