Since nobody congratulated me when Bobby got all those saves in a row, I refuse to waver when he blows one. Luckily I saw none of it. Watched the first seven, then had to go to church. Heard a rumor on the Royals' postgame the Sox are trying to get Soria so that should make all the Jenks haters happy when we trade all our remaining prospects for Soria-DeJesus.

Nice to see our best vs. their best.

These 3 innings are huge, don't you agree? 2-2 on a weekend Detroit goes 0-4??

That turned out rather lousy. f***.

Have Stoney and Hawk even noticed CQ was taken out? Somebody in management shoulda told them if they missed it.

Freddy's given up 11 hits. He has to go take a shower and leave it to the pen to try to avoid a Minnie meltdown.

Nice read by Kotsay. Hilarity. Freddy got out of it. I was wrong. I thought today Freddy was only good for five.

Cmon magic man, be a magician and somehow escape.

Can Freddy get one more out?

How do you take that pitch? We're f***ed folks.

That was ball four in this day and age since it was above the belt.

Oz can't make up his mind on this one. I have no idea what he should do, I just want another out. threets don't thrill me.

I thought Q mighta got hurt hustling on that infield hit. He waited another inning or two. Hope he's fine.

Then ain't dead yet. Six runs needs to be enough today. Please.

This is interesting. Do we mow down the Twins the rest of this game and split the series 2-2 on a weekend Detroit lost all four and everybody's loving life again? Or do the piranhas (sp) bash Fred this inning, get right back in it, beat us and it's all doom and gloom? I ain't got the answers today.

Juan and Omar are not great hitters.

This is not an "I told you, so." But to those who wanted Gordon sent down, can't you see now that that decision is not right for every struggling second year player? He's figured it out apparently by himself and rode out the storm.

Beckham deserves these hits falling after all those outs earlier in the year.

What's the pitch count on Freddy? I just think after WATCHING every pitch today, he has Blackburn-itis and his pitches are screaming "hit me!" Hope I'm wrong cause I bet Fred is coming out. Nice hit, Castro!!! Rite up the middle.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 18, 2010 -> 07:52 PM) Bah, FG already got through the heart of their lineup. Worst that happens is Young or Hardy gets ahold of one and its tied, for now. But is this a so-called "statement game?" Shouldn't we go with Putz, Thornton and Bobby and give it our best shot to keep the lead?

I think Freddy's coming out to pitch the 7th. Normally I'd be OK with that, but we prolly should go Putz to Thornton to Bobby.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 18, 2010 -> 07:50 PM) Quentin!! How the hell did that ball go so far? Thanks Gardenhire, that was terrible managing. I'm afraid you are going to be saying the same about Ozzie soon, cause Freddy will be out for the next inning, won't he? Yuk at the thought of that today.

CQ lets that one pass, then takes it over the center fielder's head. Guess he knew what he was doing. Nice smash.

Pauling looking sick against the slop ... until that pitch. Very nice, Paulie.

Cmon Paulie, just stroke a hit to center like Rios just did.
