QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 05:38 AM) I've said it a lot this year, and based on the IQ level of this team I'll say it several more times, but this would be the worst loss of the season. Simply pathetic. I get more upset about games that we lose that we actually deserved to win. Even though there were errors, the game at Baltimore earlier this year when Jenks gave up two, 2 strike hits with 2 outs to let them tie it was much worse.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:36 AM) You're kidding, right? This is a horrible team. We have Danks going tomorrow. No, when the Sox go on to lose tonight, it sets the tone for just a terrible weekend. They look defeated right now.

Ozzie sure looks confident in the dugout.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 05:34 AM) Uribe has had quite the night!! I didn't think it was possible, but this team will be a bigger frusteration/failure than even the 2003 White Sox were if they don't make the playoffs. It amazes me how stupid this team is and how much they give away to their opponents. Was Scott Linebrink our first half MVP?

It's going to be HoRam this inning.

This has all the makings of an A's sweep...please prove me wrong this weekend.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 05:31 AM) Do you trust Getz at third? If we can't, then sending Fields down was f***ing stupid.

Terrible, simply terrible baseball tonight.

Uribe shouldn't be batting against Street. It would be a good situation for Griffey Jr.

FWIW, Dotel's ERA on the road is now around 5

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:22 AM) Goddamnit Ozzie...WHY leave him in there?!!!!!!!!! Yep, leave in the fastball pitcher to bat against the fastball hitter. Boone Logan's fall from grace really hurts there.

Ozzie needs to start treating Cust like he's Matt Stairs.

f***!!!! What a terrible pitch to Cust. Simply put, we don't deserve to win this game.

Big out in Gonzalez there. Dotel against Cust scares the crap out of me.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 05:17 AM) Absolutely correct. He doesn't hestitate to look...he scores. That's not Anderson's fault though. His coaches have to be communicating with him that the ball got away. When you're picked off like that, you're only focusing on getting to 2nd base.

Ugh, it's 4-3 now. That Anderson play reminds me of similar momentum changers at this field.

QUOTE (almagest @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 05:13 AM) Yeah, with 2 outs and 2 strikes on Swisher, definitely. Looked like someone in Oakland's bullpen touched the ball, though. Doesn't it then become a dead ball? That's our bullpen out there.

For some reason, I always worry that Dotel will come in and just be nowhere near the plate (due to that Giants game).

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:11 AM) Really can't blame Cox on that one, didn't thing Barton would have thrown it that well. Absolutely the right call to send him.

Damn, a great throw to the plate is the only way they get Anderson.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 05:09 AM) I still shudder to think that Owens was going to be our starting CF. I still laugh at hearing Hawk say that Owens got his groin to get better.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 05:07 AM) Or pinch run for after he walks with Brian. To be honest, I never anticipate PK actually reaching.

PK is batting here, which hopefully means he'll be replaced for defensive reasons in the bottom of the inning.

CQ absolutely crushed that ball.

QUOTE (almagest @ Aug 16, 2008 -> 04:55 AM) Is this guy Braden really any good? He has 3 pitches, supposedly. Looks like 2 to me. The game plan tonight has been horrible.
