QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 11:55 PM) wonder if he's going to be benched this inning He absolutely should not be starting tomorrow. Ozzie can't make statements to the media like he did and then get made to look like a fool.

Great, that coke snorting prostitute loving alcoholic scores.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 10:53 PM) I do not wanna lose to the cubs again today... Ozzie's managing this like it's a game in May against the Mariners.

Is it me, or did Konerko flat out miss that liner?

Of course...you can't throw him an inside fastball there. Again, where is Matt Thornton?

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 10:49 PM) Man what a terrible play again... wonder if Oz will just keep letting Alexei make these bonehead plays or will he move him or bench his ass for a game. or why not just admit the SS move isn't working, and put him at 2nd base?

Fukudome will be bunting here. Hopefully we don't see another error by an infielder.

Seriously, where is Thornton? Why are we using our 6th best reliever in a tie game in the 8th?

Ah crap, here we go again. Alexei, enjoy your seat on the bench.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 10:44 PM) For who? Nix or Beckham to 2nd, Fields to 3rd. Getz will see his OPS fall below .600 pretty soon if he doesn't start coming around.

Ugh, Getz is really begging to get benched. He's swinging and missing way too much.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 11:40 PM) Poreda is up. Ugh..I forgot Thornton is a mop-up reliever now. Let Carrasco go to the mound and get them to ph Fontenot, and we can bring in the lefty.

PK isn't picking up the pitches at all today.

Way to draw the walk! No DP PK.

Should be Thornton in the 8th.

Good results for Carrasco that inning.

Carrasco is up in the zone with everything.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 11:16 PM) Soriano expands his zone so often. Throw one eye level or in the dirt. It can't hurt, and there is a real chance he swings at it. He was sitting on the offspeed pitch. He was incredibly late on a 90 mph fastball earlier in the count. Good AB by Soriano, still thought Pods could have been better positioned to catch it.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 11:15 PM) You can't throw Soriano a strike with two outs. You have to go out of the zone somewhere. Yep, I had a bad feeling as soon as Soriano was so on top of the plate. Carrasco should have wasted a pitch up and in before dropping down. Carrasco instead threw a pitch that could have been called a possible strike if Soriano didn't swing on it.

They'll probably bring in Marshall after Beckham bats.

Well, that's the last time we ever see Carrasco in a big situation. He choked, pretty plain and simple.

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 11:11 PM) our best pitcher, eh? You knew we were in trouble once dumbass McCarver brought that up (from Ozzie's mouth).

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 11:11 PM) I thought this garbage Cubs team couldn't score any runs? They destroy relief pitching lately.

Well this is just terrible. 5 runs scored for them with 2 outs. Every pitch he's thrown has been hittable.

Carrasco is hanging every pitch he throws. Doesn't have it today.
