QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 08:52 PM) He couldn't have done a better job of convincing people to throw him off the team than yesterday's debacle of not lifting the bat off his back in two ABs. If only Crede could have stayed healthy for two more weeks, Fields would have been traded at the deadline. There's no way he's on the team next year. And FWIW, I was one of his biggest fans last year.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 08:52 PM) How do you not swing at one single pitch? What a f***ing cocksucking piece of s***. He should be benched tomorrow, no questions. All three of those were very hittable pitches.

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 08:51 PM) K-Rod sure gets the calls huh... I thought every pitch he got called was a strike. It was more like I don't think some of our pitchers got pitches that should have been strikes.

Bad loss....no more of these joke lineups. Fields is just terrible at baseball now, I don't think his heart is actually in it.

SWING THE f***ING BAT!

Swisher with 2 good pitches to hit, but takes both.

That was a beautiful swing by PK.

We could really use Dye and Alexei getting hot again, especially with the motherload of starters we'll see this week.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 08:39 PM) LINEBRINK SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't believe you saw him pitch on Friday. He looked significantly better today.

Agreed jake, that has to be huge for his confidence.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 08:37 PM) Hey, and I hope you leave. That's got to be a yellow flag and a personal foul.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 09:36 PM) Or members of Hawks Bosox team that have nothing to do with our team, its history, or Chicago. Agreed, which is why it was great when Plesac, Ventura, or Blackjack did our games. They were talking about players you actually cared about.

Linebrink found his location with those fastballs!

7-5 Tigers going into the 8th.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 09:33 PM) So much for "losing Quentin won't be so bad if get Linebrink back" because Linebrink looks like trash with his floating 90mph fastball. All you had to do was read the comments by Ozzie to know that Linebrink was going to have nothing on his pitches when he returned.

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 08:32 PM) Agreed, that was over the top. I don't understand the hate for Hawk in this forum though. I watch all the games on MLB.TV and I get to see all the announcers for all the teams and most of them are absolutely pathetic with personalities of a grapefruit...at least Hawk has some personality I could really do without replays of every single close pitch that's not called our way.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 08:31 PM) Minny is at the dome, with the Sox facing a far superior team, and we will probably gain ground. Can't ask for much more. 7-5 Tigers, 2 outs in the 7th.

Yeah, we really can't be using Linebrink in meaningful situations. This umpire sucks so much though.

Twins have 2 on for Morneau.

In the 5th inning, Dye made the right play. In the 8th, that's a bonehead play.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 08:25 PM) STFU Hawk. Please fire this hack in the off season. The ump has been poor, but Hawk arguing about the low and in pitch on Tex is the low point of his season.

Wow, Thome just missed it.

Well jphat, at least we agree Jermaine should have dropped that.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 09:15 PM) Sarcasm? Seriously, with the way Anderson sucks against LHP, it's criminal to leave a ROOGY in to face him.

Jermaine, you f***ing idiot! BTW, great job of being prepared Ozzie.
