  1. I'd have Thornton stay in instead of seeing Sale have to face three righties. Way he's going, he's bound to give up a homer to one of them.
  2. QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 7, 2011 -> 04:23 AM) God I'm so sick of AJ. He's just boring now. He's not a grinder, he's a grounder.
  3. AJP is just a bad hitter. Another worthless offensive night for him.
  4. We don't have a righty reliever ready for Olivo? Doesn't he crush lefties?
  5. QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ May 7, 2011 -> 04:06 AM) why? He seemingly never communicates with our players (which in turn, might be part of the reason we suck at base running). How many times have we seen Konerko try to stretch a single into a double only to be thrown out by 10 feet? He's just not vocal enough there, as there's two Baines statues at the Cell. One on the concourse, one in the first base coaches box.
  6. Terrible at bats by Konerko the last two times up.
  7. The fantastic fundamentals continue! This will sound silly, but Harold Baines f***ing sucks at his job.
  8. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 7, 2011 -> 04:02 AM) Once again, a good spot to bunt. And it worked for once. CAUSE HE WAS ON SECOND BASE!
  9. QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ May 7, 2011 -> 04:01 AM) Bet he bunts He should be
  10. Humber is not going to be removed from rotation. No doubt in my mind.
  11. Great swing by Beckham! He pulled a ball with authority!!
  12. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2011 -> 03:54 AM) Doing something that reduces your chances of scoring is a bad move even if it works. If Figgins had singled this would be a 3-2 game I'll never understand why teams don't do a hit and run in those situations. Very good chances it would at least result in a stolen base.
  13. QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 7, 2011 -> 03:53 AM) Mark Teahen ladies and gentlemen. What an awful player. Yeah, his "hot" stretch lasted like 3 games.
  14. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 7, 2011 -> 04:49 AM) You guys are a tough crowd. How can you argue it was a good decision when they took the lead?? (Likely for good; forgive me for not believing in the boys in grey). Cause it basically gave up an out to move Ichiro to second when he could have stolen the base probably at 95% success rate. If he was on 2nd, then bunting would make sense.
  15. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2011 -> 03:46 AM) Thats how you define letting him have it? Man, I shouldn't believe it when you say things like that He questioned the decision while Smoak was still jogging into 2nd. For those two announcers, that's about as critical as they get. You can tell Hawk was pissed when he emphatically said "Cust is 0-2 tonight"
  16. Hawk is so pissed at Ozzie right now. It must be nice to have a job and not worry about getting fired, even if you're doing a worse job than Osama Bin Laden's courier.
  17. Please tell me Ozzie is trying to get fired. Absolutely inexcusable to pitch to Smoak. Stone is really letting Ozzie have it.
  18. QUOTE (greg775 @ May 7, 2011 -> 03:40 AM) Look at that, a sacrifice bunt. Yes the bunt is called for at times when the book says play to tie at home, win on road. Though Ozzie gets roasted for bunting. It was a terrible decision, as it's not like we would have thrown out Ichiro if he tried to steal.
  19. That was barely fair. Can't walk Ichiro though in that situation.
  20. Hey..looks like Konerko finally motivated someone, except it's the Seattle crowd. I'll be shocked if we still lead at end of this inning.
  21. Beckham has no prayer of pulling the ball with authority.
