That might have been the worst swing of Konerko's season. I really hope we see some semblance of the swagger we showed for two weeks.

Looks like a bad slide by Rios. I despise giving up outs when you're behind.

QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:08 AM) dude focus on our game and stop scoreboard watching! hey doc, any possible names for who KW is looking at?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:07 AM) I do not like the cameras in Target Field. They also make it look like it's even harder to hit home runs there than it is. Sorta like at Washington.

Time for the heart of this offense to get it going

Good to hear Jenks' wife is ok. My sources tell me she was depressed due to Bobby leaving her for greg.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 02:00 AM) Then it's the lack of strikeouts and pure stuff. Because I definitely feel the exact same way. It's crazy though to watch tonight and see KC not even flinching at the Buehrle change-up. When he faced the Cubs, they acted like it was the greatest change-up since Pedro in his prime. There's a part of me that feels Buehrle's faced AL Central teams too much, and they've figured him out.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:59 AM) Let's wait more than 3 innings before we start with this, please. If we do lose tonight, tomorrow's game might be the most important of this season up until this point. You don't want to go into Wednesday's game facing Greinke with a 3 game losing streak and a trip to Texas after the game.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:57 AM) You'd think it is all the hits, but baseball as a whole is much more accepting of giving up hits than walks. Remember how pissed Hawk used to get at Jose even if he'd only give up like 2 runs if he was walking guys? For me, when Buehrle is struggling, you don't think he's ever going to get another hitter out. With Floyd or Peavy, you feel like all it's going to take is a good offspeed pitch to get out of it.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:57 AM) Well, let's be honest. The fact that we played 4 really terrible (and I'm not talking KC terrible) teams really contributed to what we did. We're gonna need to get some upgrades or it will look much like it did before in the AL But facing terrible teams didn't cause Quentin to remember how to hit a fastball. I'm concerned about this offense though, as Vizquel seems to be slowing down and the DH spot continues to be horrible. I guess the DH spot will have an impact on this team....dumbass!

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:54 AM) Why are Buehrle's rough outings more annoying that others? Is it the high number of hits he allows? The fact that it looks like he's just tossing the ball up there? Hard to say. Yes, I would say it's both of those.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:53 AM) Man f*** this real baseball bulls*** This was just like going to play Minnesota at the Dome. This team wasn't sure they could keep up their quality play coming back to the AL and after the Chicago series.

What a horrible start by Buehrle. He really is an NL pitcher who's pitching in the AL right now. He fools no one in the AL it seems.

Haha, what a f***ing idiot

Time to pick off Pods

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 12:44 AM) Looks like our luck has run out a little bit. What's frustrating is that the DH hole is so glaring, and even when you have 3 players raking at the plate in PK/Rios/Quentin, you still have a mediocre offense. Hopefully we upgrade before it's too late.

Damn, if we can make him throw strikes, this pitcher has nothing. That pitch was 18 inches off the plate, hard to do anything with it.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 12:40 AM) Andruw's hitting hangers about 2 feet, hahaha. It's pathetic that Ozzie keeps finding at bats for him. Just an automatic 0 for.

I missed a lot of last week, but since when has AJP been so wide open at the plate?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 12:34 AM) We will get to this guy tonight... I agree, just got to keep it close

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:29 AM) It'd be close. Jones is playing 20 feet from the warning track in LF for everyone.

Nice catch by Beckham, but holy cow, this team came out flat tonight!!

Ugh, Buehrle looks terrible out there. Only a 4 mph difference between fastball and change-up so far. Way to continue to let the self-fulfilling prophecies come true Sox!

AJP looking retarded behind the plate so far. That's 3 pitches he's caught awkwardly.

Huge out here for Buehrle. That umpire better be careful, Guillen might hit him with the corked bat.
