Soxtalk.com will be so cliche the second half of the season. Paulie equals the devil now. Any good game by Paulie will be ignored. Any bad game ... wow let the venom continue. I still like the guy. I still think if KW and Oz decide he can play, then maybe he can contribute. Oz said in the papers the leash is short on Paulie so we shall see.

Would you have said that if Konerko got 2 hits today and we won? This team is what it is (cliche). But to say we're going to be in "serious trouble" the second half off today's game is stupid. I tend to overreact myself, but people are out of control with their overreacting after losses and being giddy after wins. My god there has to be some halfway ground. So Oz has been blamed for every loss this season. No different from EVERY OTHER MANAGER. You always can second guess. Somebody also said: "Guillen needs to be crucified in the media if he sticks with Contreras very long into the second half of the season" --It won't just be Ozzie's call. We also have a GM who makes decisions on personnel.

Man he's in the tank. Completely. I have no idea what they should do. I'd DL him as well for fatigue, but he's got to come back at some point and that might be ugly as well. Does Broadway have the stuff to come up now?? Can Haegar pitch?? I just picture the knuckler getting rocketed off fence after fence all over the league, but you guys would know better than I, those who follow the minors. Jose is beyond bad right now.

Yeah, if Paulie goes 0-fer and the Sox lose and if Jose gets rocked again I'm sure they wlll be attacked. It's the way it goes.

I don't know about all year. We have been shut out I think 9 times and in some of those games the Sox looked hopeless. Baseball is a marathon as everybody knows. Some days we suck; some days we don't. Hopefully Jose will pitch seven shutout innings Sunday and we'll look good again.

A no name lefty facing us. That often turns out badly. Hopefully Jose can rebound from his weird start in KC and Paulie can keep it up.

BOO as well. Paulie four hits ...nice. Swish very nice pick. Ozzie nice move with the defensive switches late.

Are you serious? They were base hits that fell in easily. So what if the bats are built like s*** these days and they broke. They were hits. And that last out was a bullet. Boone sucked. I blame him, not Ozzie for yanking him for Thornton, who got rocked as well. And Dotel also sucked.

Alexei and Swish ... those of you drinking tonight toast them please. Great game again by Danks. Thome, Paulie, Quentin, etc., nice. Hopefully the bullpen just needs a little rest. Unfortunately we may need a lot of relievers Sunday with Jose in a slump facing the Bombers.

Great game, Paulie! C'mon Sox fans. Give him his love tonight at least. Give it up, NOW!! Thank you.

Chw ... Thornton was just as bad. Sometimes players got to do the job. Boone didn't. Thornton was not great either.

Tomorrow could be ugly with Jose facing these bombers. Maybe he'll suck it up and get back on track. Great win tonight, though.

I'm amazed he called him out. I'll give Swish his credit, but Lexi ... that is an amazing play. Actually upon seeing the replay I'll give Swish a lot of credit as well.

That play was so outstanding it should spark us tomorrow rather than making us feel we got lucky.

Logan had nothing in KC as well. Amazing play!!!!!!

Two outs but tying run at plate STILL.

This is unreal.

One dong from tying it up. Implosion by our pen.

If Danks can't win tonight's game he may commit hari kari. Cmon Thornton!

Finally an out. Nice pitch.

When it rains it pours. Trouble.

Good thing we kept scoring tonight. Our pen is sucking. Are we gonna lose this game??

Fans are making noise. Boone will earn this out if he gets it.

Hope Logan throws better than he did in KC. I prefer Thornton but I realize Boone is the other lefty option.

If you are a reliever and don't throw strikes you deserve to be whipped with a belt.
