QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:47 PM) Yeah we need to go back getting only 3 runs on 3 homers and still lose games. Home runs are bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:47 PM) If they win today it'll be 17-4 in their last 21, and then they get a team they love to batter for the next 3 games. We gonna face Baker, Liriano, and Pavano?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:45 PM) I think the Twins are in the process of doing that. They're like 16-4 in their last 20. if next week goes badly, KW better not go ahead and waste money on Manny.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:44 PM) Slowey's no hitting the A's? Yep, he's hitting the corners on every pitch he throws. Pretty damn impressive

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:44 PM) Wel Quentin can hitr it oo, but I know what you are saying. But, this singles stuff is what Ozzie wanted isn't it? Of course he did

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) We can't win against our own division how pathetic More like "we can't win against our own league how pathetic"

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) Carlos has no power? Meant Quentin, not Rios

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) So, 3 back of the Twins coming into a 3 game series in Minny. Basically, we play like we usually do in Minny and that's the division. Yep, we've lost 7.5 games in the division in a less than a month.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:39 PM) Have to use game day today so when I logged onto Chisox.com I see the headline "Sox take advantage of Tiger miscue" OK we scored a run, but it failed to mention we were down 3-1 again showing no offense. Tigers have a home run and 2 doubles. Where is ouir power? It's all singles Look at the lineup we had today? Outside of Konerko and Rios, there is no f***ing power. It's absolutely insane to play home games at the Cell with this bulls*** lineup.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:33 PM) Beckham has gotten 2 very hittable, up fastballs the last 2 pitches and he's flown open on them. Wow, that was vintage April-May Beckham. We've played the last 10 games like we did during April-May, so that's not much of a surprise.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:30 PM) He ran out of the basepaths to tend to an injured bird? Yep, he has no marbles. Come on Beckham, hit a double.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:28 PM) We can relate to that. Chris Carter looks like the bad version of Pedro Cerrano at the plate.

Twins up 1-0 after 4 1/2 innings. A's offense absolutely pathetic in this series.

QUOTE (TomPickle @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 08:26 PM) Sergio Santos has How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days in his basket, that's 1000 times more embarrassing, Mean Girls is actually enjoyable. oh yeah, hot L. Lohan in that movie

Ha, stop batting Teahen 5th please.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 07:16 PM) In that Twins game yeah, but he's been a lot better today so far. The 2nd inning was great, but the 3rd inning and now the 4th have seen too many balls up in the zone.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 07:15 PM) Ok, the pitch to Avila wasn't very good. He hangs nearly 40-50% of all offspeed pitches these days.

Get someone up in the pen, Garcia simply doesn't have the stuff to get thru the order a 2nd time lately. Looks like Garcia was the pitcher we needed a replacement for, and not Hudson. Watching The Club, it was obvious there were members of the organization that could see this coming.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 07:09 PM) Without Miguel Cabrera dropping that pop-up, we don't score the runner from 3rd with 0 outs. Sheeezus. or a balk Seems like PK is seeing a ton of 2 strike offspeed pitches lately

Nice sac fly by Alexei...thanks Avila for calling for an inside fastball.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 07:01 PM) Which might be a symptom of not having a ton of either MLB experience or experience at that position. True, it's not like he showed a lot of range at 3rd last season.

Fantastic AB by Pierre...hopefully Alexei picks up the slider better.

QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 06:58 PM) That play wasn't totally Gordon's fault. He was screened by Alexei as he was trying to make a play for the ball. He is far from a stiff. I agreed with balta before that stiff was a poor choice of words. It's more like he does a good job of getting into position to make plays, but he just doesn't execute well.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 07:57 PM) Didn't he make a really good catch last night covering a lot of ground moving towards the RF line? That's considered a tough play? Not being an ass, but that's a play any 2nd baseman in baseball makes.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 07:55 PM) A stiff? It was a bonehead play, but that's not a word I'd use to describe him. A Stiff is Teahen at 3b or Quentin in RF. The next time Beckham makes a tough play will be a first. I agree though, maybe stiff was a bad choice of words.
