C.C., Lee, Carmona, Westbrook, and Byrd/Laffey is a very good rotation the Indians will have in a month.

This game has a similar feel to a few games we've had the last week, where we should have been up by 3 or 4 runs early in the game, but lack of executive, etc.,has kept the game closer than it should.

QUOTE (Brian @ May 16, 2008 -> 02:59 AM) DHye I like that, I'll add it to Thme and OClayton

Terrible defense so far tonight.

I have not enjoyed the Jim Thome Chicago era. He definitely has put up some misleading stats.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 16, 2008 -> 03:52 AM) The sox need to find out, is this a mechanical slump that Jim is having, his bat getting a tick slow, or is he hurt. 2 years ago, and that ball just smashed the rally monkey off the scoreboard. It's simple...when he hits it the other way, he hits it with authority. When he tries to pull it, he rolls over it.

The good news is we don't have to watch Thme hit the next two nights.

What a shock, a 3-2 change-up to Thme. Just retire now Jim, thanks!

Get a sinker away and hit a slam into the bullpen Thme.

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ May 16, 2008 -> 03:45 AM) CQ might not get a very good pitch ot hit in this at bat i'm thinking Had a great pitch on 2-1, but fouled it off. He has quite the vulgar mouth.

Wow, I love the 2-3 in this lineup.

Garland seems to be throwing harder than when he was with the Sox.

Crede hustled all the way, and would have been safe even if Uribe was out. Nice to see the Sox grab the momentum back.

That was close....get the runner in OC.

Taking 2-0? I don't like that at all.

Nice blooper there...make him pay Juan!

Swisher's taken some very close pitches.

Excellent swing by PK there

I'm so ready for Uribe to be back at shortstop. I guarantee he would have taken control on Iztruis' pop up.

This team came out with no energy...again!

3 hits allowed when Javy had two strikes on the hitter.

I don't understand why Dye is playing Vlad on the warning track.

QUOTE (daa84 @ May 15, 2008 -> 10:46 PM) anyone got a scouting report on this guy we face tonight? Yep, if you get more than two runners on in an inning against him, the term "Judy" starts being thrown around.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 15, 2008 -> 09:25 PM) The 1st at bat of this game will likely feature the 2 pieces who were part of the off-season deal. Let's see who comes out on top tonight. OC owns Garland in his career.

QUOTE (jackie hayes @ May 15, 2008 -> 09:40 PM) His career whip is about 1.5, and it's never been much better than that. (A least not in a while.) All of a sudden he's Johan. It can't go on. I can't even believe it's gone on this long. I was literally agape when I looked at the box score. Unbefrigginlievable. He's also facing the Padres today.
