QUOTE (The Critic @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 10:36 PM) Looked like the "neighborhood" forceout there. Didn't look like he was anywhere near the base when he caught the ball. That s*** needs to go. Wasn't even freaking close.

How does Rich Harden stay healthy, and Griffey Jr. has to leave his 2nd game with the squad? My dad noticed Griffey Jr. limping during pregame warm-ups.

Sit him tomorrow, and bring him back for any righties we might face on the next home stand.

Griffey Jr. with cramps in his right leg....what a joke

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 10:31 PM) Sox are now tied for firtt. And after 1.5 innings this team just up and left. Coincidentaly when Cabrerra decided he needed to make a highlite reel play on a guy slower than Konerko. After Thome and Konerko went back-to-back I thought good things were going to happen today. Why can't the Sox magically turn a game around? It's hard to turn a game around when your pitching staff can't consistently shut down the opposition. Our pitching staff is really struggling shutting down the opponent after we score.

So Ozzie pulled Griffey Jr. already. Did he get hurt?

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:23 PM) Yah. Just take out Mark. Thats the ticket. ERA is now over 4. Oh well, another one of those days. If Twins keep winning at the rate they are, they deserve to be in 1st place anyways.

First of many triples hit to center field the rest of this season.

Thanks Ozzie for everything...we don't deserve to be in 1st place.

Royals hitters are 14 for their last 22 today.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:16 PM) Ozzie sends Buerhle out there again. Lovely. Winning is overrated when you can possibly get a starting pitcher a win.

QUOTE (SoCalSouthSider59 @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:14 PM) Jesus f***ing Christ, Burhle's really sucked as of late, i just don't get it........... Don't start a guy who had a sore shoulder earlier this season on 3 days rest ever?

Quality AB for Cabrera again with a runner on base....it warms my heart to know he's gone in about 50 games.

QUOTE (Winning Ugly @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:10 PM) Anyone know who is going for the Twins tonight? Slowey

Buehrle gets Boston in his next start...not exactly a team he's dominated in the past.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:05 PM) Buerhle has seemed out of breath since the first. Wow, my brother said the same thing that he thought he might be sick.

KC hitters are 12-21 against Buehrle today, and 12 for their last 17.

What an embarrassing performance by Buehrle.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:00 PM) This garbage keeps up its good bye 1st place... Time to pull Buehrle, this is absolutely sickening. This pitching staff is just too f***ing inconsistent.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:58 PM) Can't really blame him this game turned ugly quickly. It feels like the Sox are down by 5. 9 in a row retired by Davies. It's like OC's bad defense always is a catalyst for the opposition, as if to piss us off even more.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:57 PM) Davies is garbage, and we should tee off him soon. 2 more innings before we get Mahay, Ramirez, and the Mexicutioner.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:55 PM) You havin a rough day? you're awfully b****y. I just can't stand OC and Toby Hall. Dye's now 3 for his last 20, and it's just an observation that he's been too pull happy.

Dye's grounded out to 3rd base about 20 times this week.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 09:51 PM) Its not figuring him out. Its stupid pitches when you get to 2 strikes. Leaving meatballs up over the plate on 1-2 with a soft tosser like Buerhle is called Merry Christmas. Especially considering how awful this Royals lineup is.

QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 2, 2008 -> 08:49 PM) I wonder if teams are starting to figure Buehrle out. He has no change-up right now.
