Very nice catch by Jermaine there. Kubel should be walked here.

Of course, seems like every time we score lately, the other team comes out and scores also. Contreras will struggle to hold the Twins this inning.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 01:28 AM) is it cool to start saying pods blows again? no? He picked a bad series to struggle, but everytime you think he's hitting the wall, he'll have a 3-3 with 2 walks game.

DH him for the rest of this week

CQ! That was a bomb, but he's hurt again.

I can't wait to see Kotsay get way too many at bats.

That a boy Nix!

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:53 AM) panic sox fans. panic I want him to trade guys like Contreras and Dotel, as I'm not so sure we wouldn't be just as good of a team without them.

Sweet, Casilla almost hits an opposite field homer. This team is just so f***ing flat right now, and Twins on the verge of getting a comfortable lead. It's too bad KW didn't trade Contreras after his great stretch.

Safe to say Contreras has lot that great groove he was in a month ago.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 01:43 AM) i hope its bcuz the injury and not that he just isnt that good.... He was pulling everything before the injury, and he's pulling everything since he's returned.

QUOTE (Cali @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:39 AM) CQ looks completely and utterly lost up there... just DL him for his foot again, even if its not bugging him and let him get a fresh 100% start in 2010 Screw that, make him play it out and show he can actually hit again. It's not like he was lighting it up this season prior to getting injured.

Curtis Granderson has the long ball swing going for him. Tigers up 4-0 with Verlander on the mound.

Alexei is such an idiot out there, but jeez Carlos, I would have never thought he'd have such a bad season.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:35 AM) i think the only small problem there might be, that ive seen people post , is that jd would still want to play the field and not dh right? I agree, I don't think he'd be willing to be our DH.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:29 AM) thats why i think he should be our dh next year. forget thome. too many nagging injuries and dye is a better hitter That would be ideal

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 01:26 AM) This game has a bad vibe so far. Nice job by Contreras not letting them get the early momentum.

Nice range Jermaine...yuck

Someone needs to tell Hawk that Castro caught against the Tigers on Friday and had a TERRIBLE game.

Luke Scott's not playing tonight for Baltimore against a RHP. I wonder if something is going on there.

QUOTE (nastymasty21 @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 01:14 AM) 1st major league start. I think I know how this story ends 92 mph down the plate = hard to hit

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 01:02 AM) How do you know? The hatred toward Wise never ceases to amaze me. Somebody pointed out a few days ago he's the worst player on our roster. Every team's last player or two suck. So why the venom? I wish people would just bag on Oz and KW every day instead of Wise. Guy makes maybe the greatest catch in Sox history and you call him a piece of s***. Makes no sense to me. Just the fact he made that catch means he is NOT a piece of s***. He's not good but he's not a piece of s***. Juan Uribe's catch going into the stands in Game 4 of the World Series is the greatest catch in Sox history, and it really shouldn't even be a question.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 01:11 AM) They are always playing for 3 years away. That is the problem. Agreed, but it looks like they're actually willing to spend some money to try and get their team into good position in 3 years. By that time, maybe the Cubs and Cardinals won't be so much more talented than the rest of the division.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:08 AM) It must really suck to be a Pirates fan. Why, they had a pretty good day with these trades? They know that they're playing for 2011, and the money they saved in this trade will only help them in their effort to get Sano.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 11:40 PM) No thanks. I'd rather be going for a division title than selling off our players for prospects that we don't know will pan out. I've said in many other threads, it's not about the players panning out for us, it's for KW to get more ammunition to go after guys this offseason (like Carl Crawford).
