QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 29, 2011 -> 05:52 AM) greg has shocked me. He's slurped guys like Wise, Jenks and said Dye was a good defender from '07-'09. I've never done that. Bad baseball is bad baseball. greg hates everybody. As much s*** as I talk, I've never blamed KW for the Dunn signing. He just sucks. No way around it. I just wonder what you meant by I hate everybody. I don't think I hate everybody on the team. Around the horn, I like Paulie, Beckham, Lexi, neutral on Morel. I like him more than dislike. Dislike Teahen, not a fan of Omar playing every day. Currently don't like AJ much. Don't like Pierre, dislike Rios, definitely like CQ. Hate Dunn. On the mound, like Mark, Danks, don't care much for Floyd, Jackson, I do like Humber. Not a fan of any of our relief corps except Sergio. Really down on Matt and not a huge fan of what I've seen of Sale. Hate Pena. Bench: I do like Lilly; don't like Castro much. So I like a majority of the team. Coaches: Don't care for any of them right now. Love Ozzie, hate the job he's done burying us this year.

QUOTE (knightni @ May 29, 2011 -> 01:51 AM) I'm not expecting people to gloss-over the team's suckage. I'm saying that people need to give it a rest sometimes. We all know that the team is struggling and underachieving. We all know that they're spending 125 mil this year. We all know the the minors needs rebuilding. Most know that the coaching and management should be under closer scrutiny. It just doesn't need it harped on EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. You know what? Normally I'd agree but the team brought it on itself. It just did. It's just so hard to not bag on this team when it fell so far behind so early. Yes the boys played better going 9-3 or something but this road trip is sucking as well and the team simply is no good. How can we give it a rest when this team has done nothing? We'd have to just stop talking about the team to say much positive about it when it's All In. I tell you, if they'd get rid of that slogan I mentally might chill a bit. If they'd wipe it off the websites and commercials I'd feel better. It sickens me everytime I go to the webpage.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 28, 2011 -> 10:26 PM) If they want fans to spend their hard earned cash on this team they better start taking this seriously. If they want to stick with Ozzie and Walker they won't be getting much support at the gate. "All In!" What a joke! Actually a new manager probably would make a difference for about 10 days. If we can get in the race in that 10 day period it might work. Otherwise this team's holes will again eventually show themselves no matter who is in charge. If they want to fire Ozzie, fine. Go ahead. But the new manager won't make a difference. This team is too slow and has severe pitching problems in the bullpen. Also, a new manager won't be able to get Rios and Dunn going. Not this year. The starting pitching of course has been very good for the most part, though Jackson has been kinda horses*** at times and Danks is winless.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 28, 2011 -> 02:44 PM) Maybe being hit in the face will wake him up. That's kind of harsh unless it was a joke. I wouldn't wish a big ol fat black eye on anybody except a criminal.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 28, 2011 -> 10:29 PM) This is the 6th time this year the Sox had a lead in the 7th inning or later and lost the game. The wild thing is I know I have come to expect losses when we lead by a run or two late. That is pretty bad as a fan to realize my team likely will lose even with a late lead. Fire everybody and start dropping salary NOW. This team is going nowhere. The season has been over for some time now. Realize it Kenny and start firing, dumping.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 28, 2011 -> 10:50 PM) Indians just dropped a 4-spot on Tampa. Up 7-2 after 8. They apparently don't seem to understand they're supposed to fall apart soon, while we go on another 25-5 run. Happens every year. It's hard to believe some fans think we are still in the race. Our only hope is the wild card and that's always difficult to achieve with Tampa, Yanks, Boston. Soon the firesale will begin. We don't have what it takes.

I'm out. I've seen this happen too many times. Hopefully my absence will spur the Sox to victory.

Is Sale a soft tosser now?

QUOTE (Maxwell @ May 28, 2011 -> 09:08 PM) Nice K by sale. All the negativity here is ridiculous. Very nice K. My negativity is based on the Sox total body of work this season.

I wish the Braves would give us Teheran for Teahen.

I wonder how many walk off wins we have at home. This is going to be another sad moment for us loyal Soxtalk fans.

AJ probably thought they were going to pitch around him. Uh, no, AJ. You are on a decent roll of late, but nobody's afraid of you. He came right after you and you should have been ready for those meaty strikes you took.

QUOTE (soxsider11 @ May 28, 2011 -> 08:59 PM) greg, paulie hit a bloop that fell between bautista and hill. lexei scored and paulied scooted into 2nd Thanks. Lousy at bat by AJ falling behind in the count. At least the team tied it, but walkoff are no fun.

My MLB froze again. What happened?

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 28, 2011 -> 08:55 PM) And I would take that bet too. Unfortunately for both of us, you're not a gambler. That wouldn't be a smart bet by you IMO.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 28, 2011 -> 08:51 PM) And when the Indians collapse, and we are within 2-3 games of first with 75 to play, I just wish you would take up knitting. I'm on a non gambling streak, but if I were a gambler I'd bet you $10,000 that Cleveland will finish ahead of the Sox.

Lexi uses the whole field. Got to love that.

Seven runs and we are losing. Sign of a bad bad baseball team.

How could Juan take that 1-1 meatball??? Hit the ball.

If we lose today, I just wish you people that think "it's still early" would start to call for some heads to roll.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ May 28, 2011 -> 08:42 PM) lol Yeah Jackson wont bring any return because every staff in the league has guys better than him. Come on now, if the Sox wanted to trade Edwin, he could be gone today. Make him a reliever and get rid of Pena. He gets the Pena role.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 28, 2011 -> 08:38 PM) He started off wild and ineffective, got it together as the outing went on. It wasn't a good start by any means, but he gave us a chance to win the game. I agree yet disagree. He didn't give us a good chance to win the game. The bats came today and he was not really good. He didn't take advantage of our offense coming to play today. A loss is a loss. So we hit and still lose.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ May 28, 2011 -> 08:38 PM) completly agree. its just a whole lot easier to say "fire ozzie!" instead of saying crain sucked,etc. but hey, everyone is entitled to their own opinion , no reason to fight That's true. How did we score? My MLB froze up.

If Dotel was pitching for us, Toronto would light him up.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 28, 2011 -> 08:31 PM) For anyone that questions how influential a manager can be on the outcome of a game, Ozzie's proving how detrimental he can be this week. If it makes u guys feel better, blame the manager for everything. Yes he should be fired. Yes this team is horses***. Yes these players are horses***.
