Bunt with Quentin?

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:32 AM) Oh come on. Every team has a bunch of these types of games every year. I would say the bigger issue is we need to start winning some of the games where we make a comeback at the end.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:32 AM) Sox have hit the s*** out of Howell, so thats a positive. Have we when he's been a reliever? Bad memories of Crede/Swisher not swinging against him last year for strike outs.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:29 AM) You're ridiculous. You are probably Dotel's biggest critic. He always chokes. He's not a closer. GMAB, you're never f***ing wrong are you? I'm tired of your bulls***. Now is not the f***ing time. Um, Dotel is the person who I would beg for Ozzie to use as a closer instead of Linebrink last year. He's the only one with closing experience besides him. I understand you're pissed about what's happened tonight, we all are.

QUOTE (qwerty @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:28 AM) No manager pulls their full time closer in that situation. None. I think we can all agree he should be pulled now? This is a ton of pitches for him to throw in consecutive days.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:26 AM) Guess I'm the only one that thinks Zobrist ball shoulda been a DP. Not sure where the hell Lexi was. That was a rocket, no chance

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:25 AM) Ya, what a moron. Bringing your closer in? Horrible decision. STOP f***ING WHINING!!!!!!!!! Oh stop...he should have been pulled when the bases were loaded. After seeing how poorly the fastball was the first few batters, you have to bring in Dotel.

QUOTE (qwerty @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:25 AM) For all of you that think dye is a good fielder... i hope you remember that play. There's no one who watches games that's not named Ken or Steve that thinks Dye is good defensively.

Haha, all the awful fundamentals on display tonight.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:22 AM) SERIOUSLY??? Do you WANT to not be the closer?? I so wish he'd be traded, and this was before he went Rod Beck on us.

Good one Ozzie!

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:21 AM) Wow. 2 nights in a row of this s***??? Come on, Bobby! Every f***ing outing from him is like this now.

This is ridiculous. His fastball sucks, yet he keeps using it. Dotel really should have been given closing opportunity tonight.

Get Dotel and Thornton up.

92 mph fastball. That's not going to get the job done.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 03:17 AM) That dude pitched a hell of a game For having a lesbian sister, he sure pitched well.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 02:13 AM) Even though we got that inning done, that was the most bizarre choice of pitching that inning... Ozzie wanted to avoid Crawford and Pena off the bench

Wow! Clayton says "up yours" to some of us.

Ok, why is he still in to face Upton?

Wow, that was absolutely pathetic by Beckham there. Navarro's one of the slowest runners in baseball also.

You have to think Wise scores on Beckham's single...damn

Alexei was swinging way too hard in that AB. As jphat keeps saying, our execution has been awful lately.

Is Alexei any good with the bases loaded?

Wow, overmatched

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 01:59 AM) Really, why wasn't he in once Q was HBP? Wondering that also
