1-0 tribe, GD Javy

Thank you, Gomez first pitch hunting for an out... 4-2 going to top of 9

lol, 4 pitch walk to Punto, crap

jesus, 3-0 to Punto, he's not very good, maybe KC is looking at the Sox notes on him

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Sep 26, 2008 -> 04:35 AM) Am I the only one that thinks 30 rock is very overrated? It's not terrible, I just don't find it that great. IMO it's no where near the office. No, I agree with (I prepare for us to get flamed). Like you said, I don't think it's terrible, I just don't think it's as over-the-top awesome as a lot of people do.

QUOTE (letsgoarow @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 02:54 PM) i cant believe wise is playing, i feel sick That is the one that bugs me the most, unless Slowey gets absolutely nailed by lefties, but still, even though he's struggled this year, Swisher would be the far better option

I am so pissed Ozzie is going to let this team die with Jermaine hitting 3rd. I am not advocating yanking him out of the lineup, but he should not be hitting 3rd. Wow, I can't believe he ran the same lineup out there. Dewayne Wise has a good 1-2 weeks and he just gets to play with no questions asked

Harden's start today has to be huge for the Cubs, right? After the no hitter Zambrano has laid two eggs and Harden's last start he had thrown 115 pitches through 5 innings. If those 2 aren't clicking they fall back to the pack

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 07:02 AM) Slowey is very good in the dome, i've watched a lot of his games on mlb.tv His pitches have a lot of life on them, and he has incredible control as well These twins players just aren't the same at home, it's not even close really The same can be said, verbatim, for our Sox on the road He's sucked the the last two weeks and he has an ERA over 4 for the last 28 days, but in KC and in Minny the Sox have faced pitchers who have been struggling and who have been giving them pitches to hit, but they can't do crap with them. I expect nothing less tonight. http://www.baseball-reference.com/pi/pspli...1&year=2008 Gavin will have to go 7 and give up one, maybe two, to give this team a chance. Enough with Wise, he gave you a nice pop for a week or two, but enough

QUOTE (HeGone33 @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 10:07 PM) I won't be watching it because my so called "luxury" apartment complex does not offer comcast sports plus with their great cable package. It got shifted to normal CSN

QUOTE (daa84 @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 10:05 PM) win this one and all the pressure goes back on the other side that's what killed me about tonight. Sox win this one and Twins have 100% of the pressure on them

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 09:58 PM) Let a real man start this thread. You guys have been Corpsethreaders! OC SS Wise LF Thome DH Kong 1B Jr RF AJ C ARam 2B BA CF Uribe 3B Is my lineup. I like it except I'd swap Swish for Wise... I will take a guy who has got it done in 2 years in MLB and is having a bad year over a career minor leaguer

I will. I'm a sub for a softball team and they called. If the Sox won tonight I would have played, but they didn't so I will watch. I've invested enough time and emotion in this team, if/when they go down I want to see it

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 09:59 PM) i say the odds of them winning tommorow is probably 10-15%. The Twins have the momentum and most likely the division. This season reminds me of 2004 when they lost Maggs and Frank. Yep the loss of CQ has all but ended the Sox chances of anything special this season. Shouldn't have though. the middle of the lineup, specifically Thome and Dye have had chance after chance after chance to do something, even just sac flies and have failed. Q was a big loss, but this team has had numerous chances with vetrans and have s*** themselves. I won't hang my hat on the Q loss

QUOTE (Yoda @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 09:59 PM) Definitely put today's performance up there with Freddy G's two hit shut-out from a couple of season's ago where he walked away with a loss. this is way worse... didn't Santana pitch that game for the Twins. Tonight Blackburn was bad and the Sox did nothing to take advantage of it

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 09:55 PM) f*** that, they've had their chance. I want my sunday lineup. 1.Owens LF 2. OC SS 3. Thome DH 4. Konerko 1B 5. Alexei 2B 6. Swish RF 7. AJP C 8. BA CF 9. Fields/Uribe 3B here's mine Swish OC PK Thome Alexei Dye AJ BA Uribe... or swith OC and Swish at the top (edit was I forgot to put Dye in... but in my defense he's forgot to show up lately)

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 09:54 PM) He must be clinically retarded because I'm fairly sure I heard monkeys who were trained to fill in circles score, on average, 13 on the ACT. This wasn't a dome game, Sox handed them this game. so it will be... Dome Game Sox choke game Sox laydown and Twins are up 5 by the second inning

Ozzie is a terrible manager, just absolutely terrible. the offense totally bit it again tonight, JD and Thome have been ridiculously bad. The Wise thing was cute and they got some big hits out of him, but he's a 30 year old minor leaguer for a reason. MB showed up tongiht and Linebrink did a good job holding it where it was at. Well Gavin, you've kicked ass all year, can you give 7 innings and nothing more than 1 run? That is excatly how sweeps happen, the Sox flat out handed that game to the Twins. I'm not a huge fan of stolen bases, but to not try with OC with the hack that has become Dye up and Wise in the first is a joke

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 03:29 PM) Weezy OC Dye Thome Konk Griff Ramirez AJ Uribe well, i don't know what to say at least AJ isn't hitting 2nd I can't believe Griffey is starting and Dye is still hitting third, it is simply mindboggling

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 12:18 PM) It's on Mark, pure and simple. He's capable of shutting them down. His pickoff move helps a ton against the Twins

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 12:09 AM) Those white powder donuts are my weakness. I will eat as many as you put in front of me. this is a weird one, but good shortbread is like that for me, I will tear a part a box if it's in my house, and same thing for Peanut M&Ms

The AB to Gomez where he got the end of the bat hit to LF summarizes Javy's bad pitching. He gets ahead of him and then tries to nibble on the outside part of the plate over and over again.

They need better OBP guys. They play 81 games at the Cell, they need to be power based. I agree they need a little more flexability, but a radical change from the power lineup would not be good

here's an idea, when it's an obvious bunting situation, one in which the Twins have bunted against you 10 out of the last 10 times, call for a pitch high and tight

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Sep 23, 2008 -> 08:59 PM) The Twins suck, Blackburn sucks, the Dome sucks, grow a pair and win. that should be more or less Ozzie's post game comments, except he will be knobbing all things Twins
