Good things happen when you go with the pitch! Good job AJP.

Nice job Heath; Terrero needs to go 3-3 by whacking a single here.

Blink your eyes and that inning was OVA for the Sox. Somebody with a name besides Bobby is pitching now which means trouble for the Sox.

Uribe, Richar and Cintron are slated to bat in the bottom. THey remind nobody of Ruth, Mantle, and DiMaggio. Bobby is so good it's scary.

No way Erstad was going to get 2 straight clutch hits in a row. Doesn't happen in 07.

One for six is so typical of AJP this season.

I wonder what the stats are when Bobby enters in a tie game.

The key is for the Twins to score five, then we'll score six and it'll be over.

Oops, so much for Ozzie ball.

I hate to say this but Logan isn't ready for prime time. MacDougal should be sent to Tampa Bay for nothing. Just get rid of him.

Don't worry, you'll get your wish. This game has 'L' written all over it. Nice bullpen, Sox.

Two game threads would be the solution.

No true White Sox fan wants the team to lose.

Can we have two game threads from now on? One for those who want the Sox to win; another for those who want them to lose? Geez. Take it to the Tampa boards.

Ozzie Extension
Fair question. In Oz's case, I would say it'll be the manager's fault if we make upgrades and suck next year again. Because now, Oz knows that some certain studs are not totally reliable and he's going to have to figure a way to make it work. Nobody on the team outside of Bobby was reliable this year. All the veterans sucked or were very average, and Oz will need to develop a strategy next year realizing this is no longer a WS team. He deserved a free pass this year because who would have known the veterans were human and the acquisitions would suck? If the bullpen is this bad next year, though, that will be KW's fault and he should be the first to be fired. You are right though, if next year this team continues to sleepwalk and suck, Oz probably will be judged harshly and may even get axed. I think next year is a make or break year for Ozzie and KW.

KW isn't the only GM to to duped....
What's the point of being a fan at all then? Why not just be a fan of the draft? Finish last every year and enjoy the draft. The point is ENJOYING BASEBALL SEASON. Enjoying victories instead of seeing your team get about five hits per contest. Fifty below zero winter days are here soon enough.

Ozzie Extension
Like somebody said, Connie Mack couldn't manage this team to victories. The veterans sucked. Injuries. The bullpen would drive any manager to drink. Even today, an automatic win and poor Bobby has his first bad day in a long time. Another loss. It AINT OZ'S FAULT. How bout the veterans WHO CANT HIT (can you say Dye, AJ, Thome, Paulie, Uribe, Erstad). How about KW who put together perhaps the worst bullpen in baseball history. Fields is this season's only bright spot. As well as Bobby.

Sox vs. Tigers- 12:05pm
You said to me: "That doesn't make sense." It makes a lot of sense. Cub fans want the Sox to lose all their games. The Sox fans dreaming of some draft pick that may or may not pan out want the Sox to lose all their games. So they have a lot in common. They both currently hate the Sox. Wanting em to lose. It's hard for me to stomach good Sox fans wanting them to lose every game. Sad, but I do understand their logic as much as I disagree with it.

Sox vs. Tigers- 12:05pm
Don't see why you are optimistic about the offense after that horses*** effort today at the plate. What a joke of a team. At least they lost for you guys who want 'em to lose every day. You guys that want 'em to lose have a lot in common with Cubs fans right now. You want the Sox to lose. Congrats.

Thome's Quest for 500
Tick tick tick. Time is running out on Jimmy. Hope he gets hot and reaches the milestone this season at home.

KW isn't the only GM to to duped....
This is where we disagree. To me there is a big difference between 66 wins and 86 wins. 86 wins means it was a decent season. My gawd, to some I guess we are at the point unless we have a shot at the playoffs we should just be the worst team in baseball. Sports for me will never be that. I would rather have the Bears contend this year, then lose their final four games and get a s***ty draft pick than lose every game and get No. 1. I'm just saying maybe Gload as the fourth outfielder would have actually hit .290 or .300, put the ball in play and maybe by example help the lineup. I also understand where you draft pick people are coming from, but I really don't understand your position. And it frustrates me (I know nobody cares) to read comments in the game threads from Sox fans so happy when we lose in embarrassing fashion again like tonight (4 hits).

Sox vs. Tigers
And tickets one generation ago according to that video on old Comiskey cost about 8.50. 8.50 for a beer is beyond belief except in a strip bar in Vegas. Insane. Insane.
