Yikes. TB, Boston, and NY all lost.

Yost lucked out right there. 2 lefties in a row and left Gagne in.

Shouse should be facing Ward.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 09:33 PM) Gagne in to face the Cubs? Like Dr. Sam Beckett coined, "Oh boy!"

Anyone else taking the Cubs/Brew talk to the Cubs thread in DC?

Rickie Weeks may not be in a Brewers uni next year.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 08:27 PM) Unfortunately we probably blew our best chance to win tonight, and got killed while doing so. Tomorrow we got Richard going...so yeah, this series isn't exactly setting up well in the least bit, but we shall see I'm not totally down on Richard. Defense could of picked him up a bit and gave up some 2 out runs. Cut down on that mixed with the Twins not nearly being as good offensively as Texas, and he could give us a shot.

I don't know whether to think Russell Branyan is garbage or just an amazing HR hitter.

His wife works a lot with White Sox charities. Does that count?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 09:16 PM) So Reed Johnson has one of the most illegal slides you'll ever see, and there's no interference call. He didn't even slide until past the base, and he hit Weeks well above the knees. I hate that steroid bastard. I didn't notice anything bad about the slide. I did notice Weeks cringing like a girl before short arming the throw.

Rickie Weeks is horrible.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 09:07 PM) Our old friend Doug Eddings is being quite friendly to the Cubs tonight. Two blown calls at 3rd base. Looked like Cedeno's hand was on Hall's foot and not the bag.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 09:01 PM) Thanks, don't tell Hawk about the umpire. Did Lou come out and thank the ump? Also in response to the thought of the game being over in the 4th. Earlier in the season the pitching would keep the team in the game. Recently this has not been the case and thereby the offense has not been able to get back into it. Thsi offense is pretty predictable especially lately. With the exception of yesterday and today, we have been swinging the bats pretty well.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 08:54 PM) STFU Hawk about the umpiring. Game was over when Mournau's homer went over the fence. Nice Ab Paulie. I got Twins feed, so how is Hawk b****ing about the umps costing us this game? They made one bad call but could of been erased if Alexei didn't screw up the DP.

Wow, generous strike 3 call.

Walk Thome and pitch to PK.

Carlos taking the night off?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 08:31 PM) If you really believe Swisher would have continued his hot streak if he remained at first base, you are crazier than I thought. He's 0 for his last 15 with 6 k's. If Konerko shouldn't be playing, neither should he. Sorry to say, he's been a huge dissappointment. I can't argue with the numbers, but it just seems that Nick has way better ABs than Paulie, even when he makes outs, which is obviously more often than not. We are also better defensively with Swish at 1B and BA in center.

Credit that run to 1st base ump and Alexei.

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 07:26 PM) Konerko needs to run his mouth to the 1B Ump so he can get tossed NICE PLAY ALEXEI! Hahahahah, hilarious. I'm a hot head when I play anything, on that bad call I would of been tossed after I tossed my glove and hat in anger.

That was an awful call. How about getting help from the umps on that???

At the Metrodome, the Twins pitching staff is statistically in the top 5 and on the road they are in the bottom 3.

If Charlie Manuel was our manager, Paulie would be benched for that.

Holy crap. I could of hit that pitch out. 87 mph down the pipe.
