Great inning for Danks!!

The more I hear Leo Mazzone analyze, the more I think that Smoltz, Glavine, and Maddux would have been great even if Nardi Contreras was their pitching coach.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 10:02 PM) I was going to make a smart remark about Swisher and Konerko's bating averages meting each other real soon, but you say he hit it hard at least? No...it was about as soft a chopper as you can hit. Just a pathetic swing on a 2-0 pitch.

Swisher's had multiple hits in multiple games only twice this season.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 10:01 PM) That's a horrid last two atbats He's just a bad hitter.

Swisher hits a "rocket" at 2nd base. Is that 4 times today we've had 1st and 2nd with 1 out?

Alexei really needs to calm down on 2nd base. There's no way that's not distracting.

Our hitters foul off the hit-and-run pitch more than any team I've ever seen.

Danks has made the big pitch when he's had to. Smith will be out of the game, as we'll face a very good A's bullpen from here on out (besides Embree and Street).

QUOTE (tommy @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 10:48 PM) Common Danks, stop walking guys. I missed the first few innings, but he seems to have no command of his fastball tonight.

Of course, Seattle is putting Silva on the DL so we won't face him next week.

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 09:29 PM) Interesting... I actually think Richard will do decent in relief.

Big play!!!

Wait, when did Ramirez drop a ball this inning?

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 09:23 PM) Man I thought for sure we would have a pretty good defense but they have been such a letdown this season. It goes unnoticed with the rest of the defensive blunders, but Alexei's defense has been brutal since the ASB.

Danks is falling off the mound, circa last season.

Danks looks terrible today.

Can't be walking the inexperienced #9 hitter after being up 0-2.

QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 08:42 PM) Maybe they deserve the division more than the Sox... It sucks we face Felix next week after they've missed him twice.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 08:43 PM) Is DLS hurt for Oakland? I believe De Los Steroids tore his elbow

QUOTE (griffey17 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 09:41 PM) its now 4-0 Twins 5-0

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 09:37 PM) Has Swisher done anything against his former team mates? He's had some decent games at the Cell against the A's.

Murderer's Row time with Uribe and Toby.
