Put Griffey Jr. in for defensive reasons in the 9th?

Fantastic inning by Dotel!

I always thought he deserved a fan club called the Wunsch Bunch

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 02:01 AM) can't believe that leyland didn't PH joyce or granderson Hopefully Cora/Cooper have Logan ready for when Granderson hits for Sardinha or Raeburn.

QUOTE (That funky motion @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 02:55 AM) Agreed but Toby called a pretty good game tonight. I did see Danks shake him off a bunch though. Yes, I agree with you.

Damn, time to take Danks out. Not a very good pitch call by Toby, as he had him set up to get him with an offspeed pitch. Great game by Danks, he did what we needed him to do.

That was a nice situation for Miguel Cabrera's liner to be right at Quentin.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 02:30 AM) It's these types of ABs that are killing Danks' chances to get a CG. He's far enough into the game that I'm no longer worried about that aspect.

He was the last person I wanted up during the first few weeks of the season. Now, he might be the first guy I want up in a big situation.

Youkilis left the Red Sox game after being hit in the hand with a pitch. That could be important for the 4 game series this wknd.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 01:52 AM) Final Line: 6 IP, 4 H, 4 ER, 2 BB, 4 K The Blue Jays might have the worst lineup in the American League, it's embarrassing. David f***ing Eckstein DH'd today. 1 hitter with a .760+ OPS (Lind) and a couple with sub .700's. I can't believe the Giants were really considering trading Lincecum for Rios.

Hawk dreams of being the meat in a Gomez/Inge sandwich.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 7, 2008 -> 01:44 AM) You get your banana peelin fingers on chat. I'm trying, it's taking forever to load.

How was Gio's stuff?

The mediocre bottom of the order for Sox allows Verlander to have a 10 pitch inning.

I think it's OC, Ramirez, CQ, Dye, Thome, Konerko, Swisher, Hall, Uribe

QUOTE (PorkChopExpress @ Aug 6, 2008 -> 10:23 PM) I imagine the fact that those two played the whole game yesterday while Konerko did not may have something to do with it. PK is 3-24 with no extra base hits in his career agaisnt Verlander. Meanwhile, AJP is 11 for 32 with 3 homers in his career against Verlander.

Terrible lineup for the Sox tonight. PK is playing, and he's been brutal against Verlander in the past. AJP isn't playing tonight, nor is Grif

Twins pounding the Mariners early so far today. I expected a little bit better performance from Washburn against a bad Twins lineup today.

Bustner Olney had this blurb about Willie Harris....the legend continues. Willie Harris is plugging holes all over the place.

QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 6, 2008 -> 07:53 PM) I'm thinking Russel, Dotel, and Jenks are available out of the pen tonight. Logan

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 6, 2008 -> 08:30 PM) I love all this talk of keeping fresh. Modern baseball, got to love it. Why didn't Cal Ripken wilt every season? He played every game. Amphetamines has had a huge impact on baseball.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Aug 6, 2008 -> 07:30 PM) Cubs hit a granny and take the lead versus the 'Stros. 5-4. Man. Two very mediocre starting pitchers in this game.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Aug 6, 2008 -> 06:47 PM) They don't need him. Though they just did get rid of Eyre. Huh? He was the main guy they traded to get Harden/Gaudin.

Sean Gallagher to the DL with possibly a blown out shoulder.
