The sox need winning streaks or series wins. This taking splits or losing 2/3 etc.. is not going to cut it. If anyone thinks that is good for us, you are seriously delusional.

If the Twins get a 3B by the deadline (maybe another arm in the bullpen though Rauch is shutting me up about the closer role) than the Twins should be in real good shape to take the division. Nick Punto is not going to cut it come playoff time.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 12, 2010 -> 02:40 PM) It's amazing how much Carlos Quentin sucks. Like I said earlier. Everyone is talking about Beckham (on this site with the threads and in the media) but Quentin has looked much worse than he has.

Alex Rios is just a joy to watch out there. Still laugh when I see the threads last year calling him a waste/KW's worst move ever, etc..

QUOTE (Felix @ May 12, 2010 -> 01:37 PM) I would be shocked if we went into next year with Jefferson on the roster. I have a feeling the Timberwolves roster is going to look quite different next year. They will trade him for sure. Only question is where.

Ozzie might have to bat Quentin 8th or 9th and move Alexei up to the 7th spot at this point. f*** if only Konerko would have kept that fair. Already knew after he grounded out the game was over.

Poor Danks.

And the sox back to winning a game, getting our hopes up, and of course losing the last one (or two)

Konerko was our best chance. Damn Jones why did you have to get a stiff neck already.

f***. Don't like our chances now.

Ah f***... JUST foul.

Konerko is our best hope IMO.

After Konerko, it should be a cake-walk of a save for Rauch.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 12, 2010 -> 02:23 PM) STFU Cuddyer. Haha, he's had a tough day. First gets a home run robbed, then a check swing K.

Boy that .257/.388 from Thome would look awful in our lineup right Ozzie?

QUOTE (fathom @ May 12, 2010 -> 02:18 PM) Yes, but neither guy K's a lot. Hard to complain about that with either of them. . Naw it is still very easy to complain about Pierre for me fathom. But ya I more or less posted that to get a rise. QUOTE (Capn12 @ May 12, 2010 -> 02:20 PM) There are plenty of things to complain about concerning this team. Juan Pierre's 7 strikeouts all year, not so much one of them. Ha.. seems to be working.

It's gonna be another close call on the PTC. Hopefully Pierre pulls it out over Konerko eh knight?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 12, 2010 -> 02:17 PM) That'd be great, considering he'd be lucky to get 12 ab's every 2 weeks. Hense why I said "still in contention." Obviously that means A.J. is still here at catcher. If we were out of it (like many think we already are now) than Flowers should be here.

For a guy who doesn't K that much, Pierre already has more K's than A.J.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 12, 2010 -> 02:13 PM) Ditto Flowers. Please. If Flowers was promoted right now, I would love the move unless we were still in contention. Dude can also draw walks probably 4th best on this team right now. (hell he drew 3 last year in like 12 ABs)

Ozzie got extremely lucky with that inning. I was ready to rip him a new one. He's lucky Joe Mauer decided to suck that at-bat.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 12, 2010 -> 10:02 AM) I used the real oven, not the microwave. Ditto. The oven would do wonders for me. I used oil and other stuff too, just didn't work as well. The ol put the ball in the glove and tape it around trick worked ok too.

UGH on Danks pitching the 7th. Like I knew would happen. Mauer/Morneau now up.

We will be better off facing their pen than Pavano.

Gordon has hit the ball ALOT better the past couple games.
