QUOTE (earthshiner @ Jul 8, 2008 -> 10:00 PM) yeah same here. I think I am more disappointed in seeing pablo go than I am glad that Paulie the Rally Killer is back. As long as Konerko is back in the 6 spot I guess he wont hurt us too much. It sure was a nice 15 days without him though. Oh goodness, this is beginning to remind me of Cubs fans thinking they were better off when Soriano was gone.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jul 8, 2008 -> 03:51 AM) Kuroda has a perfect game in the 8th...can't believe no one has posted about this yet. Nice jinx...Tex with a hit to break it up.

Impressive performance by Poreda against the '27 Yankees, even if they were missing Ruth.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jul 6, 2008 -> 09:58 PM) Anyone know how Laporta's D in the OF is? Terrible

Danks has been going up against some studly pitchers, and he keeps us in the game and allows us to take the lead often. What a breakthrough year for him.

Farmer's call was about 10 seconds long on that fly ball. Great split, enjoy tomorrow off everyone!

Ugh, Logan should really be in to face Cust. I can't believe Ozzie hasn't learned that Linebrink can't pitch in the 9th inning. This is just terrible managing.

Ellis scares me here, as he's a good fastball hitter and Linebrink doesn't have a good offspeed pitch against righties.

Should Crede have made that play?

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jul 6, 2008 -> 09:26 PM) Is Jenks available today? No

Nice job by Thornton...I'd keep him in the game. I have no faith in Linebrink to pitch the 9th.

Great job by AJP...big run

What do we do in the 8th? I'd recommend going with Logan against Cust, and then bring in Linebrink. Thornton should be the 9th inning man.

Wow, you suck Joe Crede!

Twins in great position to take the lead against Cliff Lee.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 6, 2008 -> 07:57 PM) Ozzie still seems to have no faith in Boone what so ever. Big out there....hopefully outfield is playing shallow to have a chance to throw Bowen out at home.

Crap...sounds like a bad throw by OC. Time to pull Danks, but why not use Logan instead of Dotel for the lefty?

Anyone up in the pen?

Thome continues to really struggle against RHP. His splits are shocking this season compared to his lifetime numbers. Is the reason he struggles this year against RHP because it's easier for them to get the ball in on him, where he can't catch up with it anymore?

31 pitches in the first, 24 over the next two innings for Harden.

Great job by Gavin, nice to get back in the win column.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 6, 2008 -> 02:42 AM) Linebrink struggling of late... He needs to pitch in the 8th, and only the 8th. I think every homer he's allowed has been in the 9th or later.

Linebrink can't keep the ball in the park.

Wow, Ramirez hit that about 425 feet.

Great start Gavin!
