QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 02:55 AM) So now you leave Thornton in to get through the 8th, or at least through Thome, then bring Bobby in? I'd give Thornton the 8th, and get Santos up in the pen. I'd rather go shopping for breast pumps than see Jenks try to go two innings.

Great managing by Ozzie there. Putz lives!

Crap, that 1-2 was a strike!

GOOD CALL OZZIE

Bring in Thornton to face Kubel!!

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 03:45 AM) I feel like last time he gave up a run, Fathom was still getting laid... I think that might be true.

Damn, Putz hung the slider. Really didn't like the decision to go to Putz, as lefties have had a much better shot against him.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 03:43 AM) I'd rather see Putz in the 8th TBH with you. Especially with Mauer up this inning. agreed

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 03:41 AM) Surely he'd give us the hometown discount! He'd want 4.3 million, to represent his favorite thing to do...4-3

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 02:40 AM) I don't think we can afford to resign him in the offseason. He will have too high a price tag. I love the caller yesterday to sports radio that said he enjoyed watching the All-Star Game, as it's a great preview of who KW will sign in 5-10 years.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 02:39 AM) Wouldn't you lose the DH that way? yes

Putz instead of Thornton in the 7th

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 02:39 AM) I was talking about this earlier. Having A.J. and Kotsay back to back makes it extremely easy for Gardenhire to bring in a lefty and retire these two. You called that

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 02:38 AM) You cant do a double switch where CQ moves to DH and Jones is put in rf? No

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 02:38 AM) Don't see why you wouldn't pinch hit Viciedo for Kotsay here unless you're saving him for men on base. It's Kotsay. Ozzie almost never PH for him.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 02:37 AM) Well id have ph with Jones here and then moved CQ to DH after this inning. You can't do that, you'd lose the DH spot.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 02:37 AM) According to Hawk, battling is in Danks' DNA. Ha. Shaving and public speaking are not

Where's Dayan? Seems like the perfect opportunity.

Wow Danks, GUTSY! Ha, if the scorer was accurate, should be 0 earned runs.

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 02:32 AM) I ask this question not knowing the answer, but when was the last time Thornton appeared in the 6th inning? Quite a few times this season. If Mauer comes up, that means at least 2 guys reached this inning, making his AB very important.

Wow, why does Punto have the smallest zone tonight of anyone?

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 03:30 AM) Do you really want Thornton facing Mauer in the 6th? absolutely

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 16, 2010 -> 03:28 AM) Danks almost @ 100 pitches. Let's hope he can get out of the 6 with no damage done. Get Thornton up to face Mauer

Yay for 3 free outs.

Time for a CQ homer
