If Rios doesn't get first pitch fastball, Crain's probably going to throw a ton of sliders to him.

The funny thing is that if Kubel threw home on Beckham's single, AJP would have been out by 30 feet. AJP must have had the over.

wow! Rios, pretend that Crain is David Aardsma.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 04:12 AM) That error is looming large right now. Really hard to say, as the closer mentality is soooooo different

Our comebacks, even when we lose over the last 32 games now, have been superb

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 03:10 AM) sac bunt time......haha....... haha, I'm sure some would defend it.

Beckham is studly these days. It would be something to have him, Quentin, Rios, and Konerko all hitting well at same time with Pierre/Ramirez being productive.

Jeez, that was pathetic by Lillibridge. Kotsay must be hurt...I can't think of any other reason Ozzie hasn't used him yet.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 04:05 AM) Or because he had health issues that lead to the team giving up on being able to rely on him, just a thought, he's had injury problems in the past He's throwing hard, so I don't think he has injury issues. He just can't pitch while relying on high fastballs in the AL...it worked in PetCo

Nice to see Viciedo get a hit.

AJP is going to break the f*** out of this bat if he makes an out.

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 03:00 AM) Feel bad for scott from a performance standpoint, its gotta be difficult to only pitch once every 1-2 weeks and even be slightly sharp I don't feel bad for him, as he's making a ton of money and the reason he's only pitching that rarely is because he did so awful at his job.

Scott Linebrink sucks so bad...why did it have to be Peavy with the freak injury?

Twins have just shellacked any fastballs down the plate the last two nights.

It seems that in stints of 2 innings or more, Pena's done well. In shorter stints, he's been awful.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 03:56 AM) Floyd wouldn't be throwing a shutout right now, but it certainly would be a close game. agreed

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 02:54 AM) Can't use the top guys every night. This game shoud be 2-0 Sox....sad the defense let them down Don't let Hawk influence you. Floyd allowed 10 base runners in 5 innings besides the errors. The Twins were going to score, same as last night.

Haha, B. Molina just tripled to hit for the cycle. Most unbelievable cycle of all time.

QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 02:52 AM) couldn't you make the argument that gordon had the ball and the base long enough for an out? he knocked the ball out after he caught it You have to take the ball out of your glove.

Well, this game is over. Mauer seems to be locked in.

Punto was inside the base line, should have been called out

Wow, this defense has been f***ing horrible! This is worse than that Angels game. Thankfully Beckham didn't break his wrist.

Why does Nick Swisher have to be so damn good now? He's going to be a top 10 MVP player this season.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 02:42 AM) Who did you want to bat? Just curious. Kotsay

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 02:42 AM) Guerrier is a guy he can hit. agreed
