Kotsay is a beast right now!

This game might not take 2 hours.

Twins down 4-0

Damn, thought that was going to drop. You can tell Stone is getting pissed at Rios' base running, as he was criticizing him for watching the ball on Konerko's double.

Nice line drive by Rios there.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 05:23 PM) Looks like the Sox will face Glen Perkins on Wednesday instead of Slowey. Not a bad trade off even though we hit Slowey hard. But Slowey or Perkins who has a 6.00+ ERA in TRIPLE A. I wonder if Twins will say screw it and just move up Liriano and Pavano a day due to their day off tomorrow.

Yes sir! Way to go Putz

Good judgment by Beckham to catch that ball

Wow, that's a terrible start. You don't see that very often.

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 01:54 AM) Actually Jenks blew one on Sunday July 30, 2006 in Baltimore when we were about to sweep the Orioles. Gave up two in the bottom of the ninth in an 8-7 loss. That game was awful...Dye had a huge home run in the 8th, and then some very bad managing in the 9th to lose the game for the Sox. I remember getting into a huge argument on here after that game.

Jeez Juan, 4 strike outs in 2 games.

Oh Gordon!

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 02:50 AM) Good slide, but I still hate watching him steal. Haha, you didn't like the hesitation they showed on the replay? Hawk keeps saying these guys are getting great jumps, but their jumps are awful.

Give him the 3-0 green light!

Actually a great slide by Alexei.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 02:43 AM) Jeesh, who is in Florida's bullpen. It seems like they blow every victory of Josh Johnson's and I am getting damn tired of it as a fantasy owner! I put that game on to see Molina's single, and the Marlins announcers were going nuts asking why Johnson didn't stay in the game. Been a tough week for them, as those same announcers rightfully flipped out about the blown foul ball call.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 01:40 AM) I had a great time in BMore/DC that weekend. Going to have to make a trip back soon. I was supposed to take a nice trip to Baltimore this weekend to go to these games. However, my sperm had other ideas.

Great job Thornton! Hopefully we see Putz in the 9th.

I absolutely don't remember that Jenks game...which means there were even more blown saves vs the Orioles than I thought.

Haha, Roberts. Can I nominate him for someone that will be on the White Sox in 2016? He'll fill in for Eckstein, who's a lock to be a bench player for the Sox some day that Ozney Guillen will play too much.

QUOTE (IamPabloOzuna @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 02:35 AM) oh get over yourself. AJ has been one of the most important players on this team since he arrived. Sure he's not very conventional but he gets results and he's pretty damn steady. You'll be eating your words when he's gone and the stability at the position goes with him. His "results" have been awful this year. He brought a ton of intangibles his first few years to this team, but his effort has been subpar too often this season.

Ha, Bell has NO CHANCE vs Thornton.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 01:34 AM) No, I think it was a Friday night game. I think he allowed them to tie it in the 9th and then we lost in extras. Ah yes, I believe he gave up a 2 out double to Roberts to tie it.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 01:32 AM) I went to a game in Baltimore in 2007 I think it was and Jenk blew that one. Sunday game?

QUOTE (lostfan @ Aug 8, 2010 -> 01:31 AM) For as good a year overall Rios is having, he's been awful at stealing bases. It's all about his sliding technique. He could cut down on his CS by 33% or so with a better technique.
