QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 3, 2008 -> 01:28 AM) Teams have benches. Teams use benches. Teams play 162 games. Players, individually, don't play 162 games anymore. This is not so hard to fathom, and it makes enough sense to me. Who would you use to PH for Owens there anyway? Crede already left hurting, Griffey and CQ hurting and out. That leaves, I believe, Brian Anderson and Toby Hall. I'll take Owens. Brian Anderson can hit one pitch, and it's a fastball. Bettancourt has one pitch, and it's a fastball. Hell, even if Owens gets a hit there, it probably doesn't score both. Also, I believe Bettancourt is tougher against lefty hitters. Plain and simple, Jerry Owens sucks and has no business being in the majors. Ozzie's hard on for speedy slappy guys is disappointing.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Sep 3, 2008 -> 01:24 AM) with expanded rosters i really question why DJ was in the game to start his third inning... i know hindsight is 20/20, but i was thinkin it at the start of the inning agreed...oh well, have to hope Jays win.

Owens looked good botching that ball in CF.

Indians about to get some insurance runs.

Just fantastic at bats after the leadoff walk....ugh!

That 2-0 was a great pitch for Thome to drive.

Dye continues to have terrible at bats in clutch situations. He is really struggling catching up to fastballs.

Good grief, AJP went after a pitch over his head. Get him out of the f***ing 2nd spot!

Please AJP, do not bunt!

Twins are losing!!

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Sep 3, 2008 -> 01:57 AM) We've had a lot of good signings though. I just found it odd that you decided to randomly lump that one in there. Gooch was good, but IMO not even in the same ballpark Agreed...AJP was a significantly bigger free agent acquisition than Iguchi.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 3, 2008 -> 12:54 AM) His back must be bad. I'm nervous about how bad Quentin's hand injury must be if he couldn't hit in that situation.

The fact that Ozzie let Owens bat in the 6th inning is one of the most mind-boggling managerial moves in his career.

I hate you Ozzie Guillen

QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Sep 3, 2008 -> 01:49 AM) Why is he letting Owens hit? Idiotic

Ugh, I can't believe we're letting Owens bat.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Sep 3, 2008 -> 01:47 AM) It's great how all the anti-Crede people now get to wear the guise of having always been so pro-Juan When in reality they'll just turn on him later when he's cold b/c of their own personality types Or maybe it's people who want what's best for the Sox, and right now, Uribe is obviously the better choice.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Sep 3, 2008 -> 01:47 AM) Back to back homers for the Jays. 5-4. Perkins and Danks with similar lines tonight.

Let Getz or Griffey or CQ bat for Owens!

Damn, Uribe just barely missed a homer!

Is Uribe batting for Crede?

2 runs without a homer!

Ha, Liz went 3.1-9 earned runs tonight.

Nice hit by PK! How about a 3 run blast Swish?

There we go...wild pitch makes it 4-1.
