QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:57 PM) Is it possible that the rest of the league is just that good that everyone has someone rough for us to hit? Could be that way...kinda ironic the only time we lucked out was in our series against the Dodgers. With our pitching match-ups in consideration, that's why you have to win games when you have your 20 million dollar pitcher going up against Brad Penny.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:54 PM) Sox in a whole bunch of trouble with Pineda, King Felix and Vargas We've just been destroyed this year with regards to having to face the opposition's best.

Are the Sox like 3-25 with RISP this series? Two of them didn't even score a run.

Wouldn't mind never, ever seeing AJP bat above 7th again.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:32 PM) The only good thing about Peavy is his competitive attitude and I wish it would have rubbed off on some of our other players like Rios. I like Peavy the person; I hate Peavy the DLish player. Ugh, I hate when people talk about him being a competitor. Who the f*** cares, if he pulls himself with a strained groin after allowing 6 runs in an inning, then I would rather he pull himself prior to getting torched if he was actually hurt during the inning. If this was Garland, we'd be saying he was suffering from Loser's Limp.

So from 2009 to 2011, does anyone know what Peavy's stats are for the Sox and how much we've paid him for that?

Wow Morel looked like a pitcher in that at bat. Tigers have a roster loaded with talent, it's scary how good they can be if they upgrade with a starting pitcher.

Very nice Dunn!!

I feel like this is karma for us for always mocking Prior and Wood.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:12 PM) Remember when Nomah did that? I still think about that injury when I'm stretching at the gym. It terrifies me. Yep, 2005

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:11 PM) 25K today the way the play at the Cell I am not suprised. That's pathetic. Tomorrow should be a big crowd due to half price night, but the crowds the rest of the week will be in the low 20s likely.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:10 PM) Strained right Groin for Jake Peavy, reevaluated on Monday He better have not torn it off the bone!

Tigers are flat out the best team in the AL Central, in my opinion. Need to win 5 of our next 7 on this home stand. I'm confident the pitching can hold down Seattle and Oakland's offenses.

Haha, one of the more predictable homers you'll see. I never knew that Ohman was supposed to be a long man.

Not a good game for Lillibridge. This is an embarrassing lineup that Kenny should be ashamed of (actually, he should be fired for, but that's coming at end of year).

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:00 PM) How can a team with a $125+ million dollar payroll be home to like 7 of the worst players in baseball? I was thinking earlier how 3 of our 6 best players have to be making close to the minimum.

Tigers have no problems getting hits with RISP, and we can't buy one these last two games.

Run saving play for Detroit there most likely.

I assume Peavy taken out due to some type of injury/soreness?

That a boy Beckham! Love to see him getting on top of a fastball.

Terrible call, terrible player....oh Kenny Williams

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:35 PM) I agree, but just because the guy threw 100 pitches his last start it doesn't mean anything Actually his velocity hasn't come close to what it was in the Cleveland game since his high pitch count that game.

Wonder how long before our hitters realize that the second time though the order, Peavy's throwing everything on the outer half.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:33 PM) This is what happens when your SS gets lazy on a tailor made DP... Alexei should have about 13-15 errors this year.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 08:33 PM) That's not the problem, if you give teams extra outs they're gonna take advantage unless you're the sox Like we said though, Peavy's junk ball stuff might have worked first time though the order, but the Tigers were all over him the second time through. 91 mph tailing fastballs and rolling sliders only fool hitters so many times.
