Did Toby get hurt? I quickly went to shower, and saw that he was pinch run for.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 10:37 PM) Twins lose - At least it helps this suckage not feel as bad. Yep, I'll take a 1 1/2 lead in the division over the Twins, and 7 over the Tigers, going into the break.

What is the Sox record on Sunday away games? Kalapse, thanks for the great stats this weekend.

Just let Brian Anderson pitch. Hopefully Thornton gets out of this game healthy.

This Linebrink stuff is very strange though. I just pray that everything is ok physically with him.

QUOTE (tommy @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 10:30 PM) We have been going through having Ozzie leave the starters in too long game by game, lucky enough we won most of them. Not today. And look how many seem fatigued now. Only Danks and Buehrle seem to have anything left in the tank.

So you bring in Thornton after letting Russell face a lefty to lead off the inning and then a switch hitter? Lefties in the majors could probably hit .500 against Russell's pathetic slider.

This has to be the most annoying game this season. Adam Russell is freaking terrible....AND NOW HE BRINGS IN THORNTON? f*** that Ozzie, just leave in Russell to die.

Will someone else besides me say that Adam Russell = not good. What in the f*** happened to his fastball?

QUOTE (tommy @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 10:23 PM) We could have easily won this game, even with Contreras performing how he did. Ozzie messed it up. Have a good all-star break guys. Ozzie wasn't great today, but the execution by these guys was f***ing awful. This is just one game, but Sox fans should be scared to death regarding Jose's outlook for the 2nd half.

I'm convinced this team is better without both Swisher and PK in the lineup against LHP. Swisher is just terrible against lefties, and that hurts because CQ and Crede suck against them also.

This thread should be fun for the next 4 days.

PK is 0-5, 7 LOB, and an error. What a s***ty player.

What's Konerko's career high for errors in a season?

Contreras will face the Rangers and Twins in his first two starts. It would be a nice surprise if we can see someone else in that spot.

Has our bullpen had a game since Joe Morgan proclaimed it was the best ever where they didn't allow a run?

So what happened to Adam Russell's fastball? He's been at 90 mph today.

This bullpen without Jenks and Linebrink is just terrible.

Damn....PK's defense costs us 3 runs.

Kinsler should be walked here

QUOTE (That funky motion @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 11:04 PM) What about Ozzie leaves Count in to long Ozzie takes out Masset to early. That's just the s***ty Ozzie in-game managing that we're used to.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 11:03 PM) How he held this offense in this ballpark to 3 ER over 7+ I will never know. He really is the balls. And the Rangers had no real threats besides those runs.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 11:00 PM) I hate this f***ing ballpark and I hate this f***ing team. I can't wait until this f***ing game is over so I don't have to see another game in Arlington for the rest of the year. I agree, and it makes me appreciate Danks so much more

Wait, 6 miscues: - Contreras missing first on what should have been a 3-6-1 DP - OC's throw in the dirt to allow runner to reach 3rd - Swisher misplaying fly ball - Uribe's ball through the legs - PK throwing it away - Ramirez misses pop up

Just a stellar call by Ozzie to take out Masset. That 5 pitch inning in the 6th must have really taxed him.
