good job Ozzie!

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:41 AM) How exactly does one explain only 3 hits against this hot garbage that is pitching against us. It makes no sense. Cause our captain predicted the emotional letdown?

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 02:40 AM) Omar has been nice for us defensively and filling in for Teahen but we need to do better in the 2 hole, we cannot expect him to keep putting up the numbers he has over the past 3-4 weeks. Andrew Jones needs to be DFA'd and we need to get an everyday DH and play Kotsay once a week and keep him as a PH. Completely agree, you can argue all you want about the NL helping us out, but KW needs to take advantage of the second chance this season and fix these issues now before things get crappy again.

Damn, thought for sure Rios hit that out. These 1-2-3 innings are s***ty tonight.

This would have been the perfect pitcher to have Viciedo face, as there's not a lot of tilt on his pitches. We're going to be begging to get Teahen back shortly, I have a feeling. Omar's bat seems to be dragging.

STOP BUNTING!

Let's get some runners on for Rios!

Hard to argue about a blown call tonight when KC could have put up a huge crooked number in the first if Guillen wasn't called out.

Beckham flying open way too much again.

I was hoping to never see that 0-1 Beckham swing again. It's amazing how consistently inconsistent he's been.

This offense really cannot do anything unless it's the 3-4-5. HELP KENNY!!

Will Andruw reach 400 homers before being released?

QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 02:17 AM) i alluded to it earlier in the other thread asking if you guys would do a certain trade for dunn. prince is not available. havent heard any talk of laroche at all. another setup man is a target. Interesting...are those the actual names being thrown out? If they are, then I hope Dunn tears his ACL tonight.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:15 AM) Yes. He slides feet first and with his body VERY high every time. There's no room for adjustment with a foot first slide, if the throw beats you you're out. When you come in tall like that you're just making it easier for the fielder to get the glove on you when there's a high throw. There's just so much more to be gained by going head first, you're low and have more maneuverability. Fantastic observation, and it cost him the SB and the Sox a run.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:14 AM) Wow, now that's getting robbed. He makes that play, but Buehrle can't make the play on DeJesus.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:12 AM) He was tagged out before he got to the bag mostly due ot his s***ty slide. CARLOS!! Was it you that said Rios is bad at sliding into 2nd?

CQ continues to rake!

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:11 AM) He beat that throw though. Thought he was out, as he didn't reach the bag very quickly on the slide.

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.
