QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 05:49 PM) yeah i know, its a rumor from the chubs blog, which also claims the cubs are going to get Arod. but its better than talking about cliff politte "This same source told me that the White Sox are "close" to acquiring Andruw Jones from the Braves; the price would be Brian Anderson and young pitching. That deal would also make sense for both sides." LOL. Sign me up. Of course, no chance in hell this happens.

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 05:43 PM) AJ's having a great year, but Mauer's been the best catcher in baseball, hands down. How in the world could you rationalize AJ over a guy flirting with .400 and leading all catchers in slugging? (With excellent defense, btw.) I'll never watch another all-star game again if Mauer is not there.

QUOTE(GreatScott82 @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 10:05 AM) IMO it will be Contreras, Jenks, Buerhle, Iguchi and Dye and it will be a crying shame if either Konerko or Thome doesnt go. It will also be a shame if Crede doesnt go. But I understand that every team needs 1 representative and not everyone can go. Who the hell is that in your avatar? Good lord!

This would've been a nice thread yesterday.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 03:25 PM) Twins are going to get another sweep, win 10 in a row. They need to stop this madness right now. I, for one, am glad interleague play is over. The Twins didn't start rolling until they started playing NL teams.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 04:27 PM) maybe we do the impossible and catch up without those 4 earned runs by pollitte. That's why I'm pissed at Ozzie. Make no mistake about it, this loss is mainly on Buehrle. He was awful. But Ozzie basically conceded the game when he sent Politte back out there in the 8th. Does giving up a bomb to Angel god damn Pagan not indicate that the guy has nothing?

Angel Pagan. That's all that needs to be said.

Sucks can't even describe Cliff right now. I've got to think of a word that better suits him.

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 04:20 PM) Yep Ozzie's fault that Buehrle pitched like s*** from the start. Ozzie's fault that Politte sucked more dick than a guy high on meth in a bathroom stall on a rave. Yep, I totally agree it was Oz's fault. Oh wait... I concur that Politte needs to be DFA'ed after this game and we need to get our hands on another bullpen arm. Because the armchair managers here -- if Oz did pull Buehrle early on in the game, you would have complained that he burned out the bullpen. Yes, there is room for some constructive criticism of the team, but goddamnit if I don't believe that a lot of people here just b**** about the team for the sake of b****ing. //rant off It's definitely Ozzie's fault for bringing Politte out for that second inning.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 04:18 PM) Since 1998, we've had, what, 4 or 5 instances where the Sox have won the first two games and failed to win the third? We can't seem to sweep these bastards. It's always an ugly loss for the third game. Yup, I called it yesterday.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 04:16 PM) Is it just me, or would everyone rather have neither of these two pieces of trash? I'd take Montero without a seconds thought over Cliff.

QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 04:13 PM) NOOOOOO!!!! CURSE YOU POLITTE! I swear to god if we lose this game by one or two runs.

QUOTE(Harry&JimmyRocked @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 04:07 PM) 10 was enough to win this game if ozzie actually managed to WIN. I made a promise to myself not to question Ozzie in any situation this year. I did that all last year and we know what happened. But I couldn't hold it in today.

Dear Cliff, I would like to thank-you for an amazing 2005. The end.

Watch us score 3 runs here. I'm really gonna be pissed if we do.

QUOTE(beautox @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 04:04 PM) prolly because he needed to know 100% that Cliff is spent, which he is, he did the same with Logan against Hafner thats how ozzie manages. The first HR he gave up to franchise superstar Angel Pagan was a pretty good indicator that Cliff was spent.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 04:02 PM) right now Shingo>>>>>>>Politte Angel Pagan > Albert Pujols That is if he got to face Politte everytime he hit.

Alright. I hate to say this. And if I get flamed I don't give a f***. f*** YOU OZZIE GUILLIEN! What the hell are you thinking in bringing Cliff back for the 8th inning? We had a legitimate chance to come back against a horses*** closer until now.

QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 04:00 PM) It's really only been the last few weeks that the WHOLE staff has struggled. My bad. I thought you were talking about Politte.

QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 03:58 PM) ANd remember, sometimes pitchers just go through a dry spell where they struggle. So 3 months is a dry spell?

Did Politte just retire Lee? Did this really happen?

Ozzie obviously has no interest in winning this game.

QUOTE(beautox @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 03:55 PM) just hold them politte. Hold them to 3 runs? I think he can do that.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 03:53 PM) Game over, Detroit wins. That's the kinda day it's been.

QUOTE(atrain081 @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 03:47 PM) last 5 sundays..... 2 - 10 L vs. Texas 8 - 10 L vs. Cleveland 8 - 1 W vs. Cincinatti 9 - 10 L vs. Houston ??? 13 given up vs. Cubs so far i don't like sundays That's a lot of runs allowed.
