QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:30 PM) Mota was wild and appeared to be overthrowing. I'm definately not lying. Mota pitched VERY well.

QUOTE(rventura23 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:27 PM) i did over-react Its cool, its just one of those things that gets on my nerves, when people go out and blame guys. There was no reason to blame Paulie on that AB.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:26 PM) We don't deserve to win this game. We've done a lot of things wrong, but we were still the better team today, so lets win this thing.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:25 PM) I put money on the fact he is not actaully watching the game, just looking online. The only chance Paul had was to guess if he should swing or not. No he just doesn't understand baseball and totally over-reacts. AJ swings first pitch and ends the inning.

ITS WP time.

That change is flat out nasty when mixed with his FB. Mota didn't have that back in his days with the Dodgers. Come on mack. Wow he took a pitch and AJ, whose our hottest hitter this side of Thome, is due up.

QUOTE(rventura23 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:21 PM) paulie youre really sucking right now put it together Are you kidding me. He had a hit earlier today and hit a freaking rocket to dead center that would have been a run scoring double had the wind not completely knocked it down. He also just had a great ab but Mota made an amazing pitch on him. Quit whining and blaming players. Its one thing if they do something stupid, but Paulie didn't do anything wrong that AB, Mota was just better.

That was f***ing nasty. What a pitch by Mota. 3-2 and he throws a change. PK had no chance.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:19 PM) What was so close? Paulie broke his bat and it went over the first basemans head but landed just foul. Barely.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:18 PM) MAN. We can't freaking catch some luck. Paulie will deliver

QUOTE(knightni @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 12:08 PM) whitesox.com is having a raffle for 3 rings. REAL ones. $20 a ticket, 40K tickets. Illnois residents only. I was so pissed when I heard that. I so wanted to buy one ticket.

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 06:00 AM) I would have prefered plat also. 56: I have a habit of being in the right place at the right time. LMB: It does look "eggy" now that you mentioned it, but in the flesh there's nothing "chicky" about it . It's actually more flat on the finger then it looks, and it is way heavy. I was wondering how the hell you got that. I was in class when you text me and I was so jealous. But I did turn over my cell to one of my buddies that was rooting against the Sox to spite me and showed him the pic and said thats what a world series ring look like.

Now they can't intentionally walk Thome which is nice.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:12 PM) Would Iguchi have had a double or triple on it? Also, did Pods chase ball 4? Pods has been swinging at poor pitches all season thus far, especially when he's ahead in the count. Iguchi with a nice base hit. Short and right back up the middle.

That ball hit his mitt and went into fair territory. Bad call. That said from where Blake was he kind of shielded it to where the ump didn't have a good angle.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:09 PM) Well, we'll just ignore the fact that you're from here, Gage. Sko Pods. Correction...my family is from there. Therefor I can make fun of it. But I like going back there, I can be the trendy one for once

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:07 PM) Great job by our glue guys (Cliff and Cotts) against the top/heart of Cleveland's order. Cliff looked pretty good. Didn't like the walk but he looked good in his stint.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:06 PM) I love being a Cotts backer since day one. On a side note, it appears WGN has caught up to 1998 in computer graphics. So basically they are where Iowa is to things that are cool. You guys should be excited, I hear 98 is a great year for baseball. McGwire and Sosa bring the game back to the prestrike levels.

PK will knock in the game winning run this inning. DO IT

Job well done Cottsy.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:00 PM) Hey, to be honest, it might make some of these game threads better compared to what they are at times. Exactly, I prefer that to the constant b****ing that goes on half the time. Cheer and get excited or give some analysis but constant whining is something that gets old. Were just 2 games into the season (this being our 3rd game). Its a long season and if people want to have hear attacks every game thats fine, but I'd just as well personally discuss baseball in this threads and more of strategy than anything else. As I say this Cottsy is in facing a tough tough hitter in Haffner.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 12:57 PM) what? i didnt go to his website at all maybe I'm thinking of someone else, but regardless, treat other posters with respect and if you dont' think you can do that, just don't say anything at all.

Politte tends to struggle in this longer outings. I'm definately concerned with the top of the order due up. Plus I fear Thornton is going to be the guy on the mound when the lefty part of this lineup comes up.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 12:55 PM) yeah i said teh same thing about him yesterday, but i was told to shut up about it...but i agree its extremely annoying Instead you went and trolled his website. Its called being mature, if a post bothers you ignore it and move on.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 12:53 PM) That Coco Crisp trade is going to be WAY better than anyone thought. Mota is nasty, Michaels can hit, AND they get a stud 3B prospect all for one above average player. First Mota will have to prove he can throw strikes consistently and that his arm won't fall apart. Plus Michaels needs to prove he can play every day and hit someone other than lefties.
