Let Contreras bat for Thome....Ozzie has the Giants right where he wants them.

QUOTE (That funky motion @ May 17, 2008 -> 04:40 AM) Remember when he would at least get a walk here and there. We also were facing some pitchers with control issues, like Dontrelle Willis

QUOTE (mr_genius @ May 17, 2008 -> 04:38 AM) CHARGE THE MOUND! I want to see a fight this weekend just to see the interaction between Crede/Rowand/AJP

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 17, 2008 -> 04:38 AM) Paulie is jerking his head incredibly bad up there. There is no way he is saying the ball to the bat. It's cause he's cheating so much in order to avoid being jammed. He put some good passes on those outside fastballs. If we're not placing him on the DL, we just have to hope he finds a way to adjust.

PK actually looked better that at bat.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 17, 2008 -> 05:34 AM) If you were to guess it based off Soxtalk gameday posts you'd think it was in the low 6's and that he was a complete waste of money that we're stuck with now. He's generally been pretty damn effective. Of course he's had a couple bad outings but what pitcher doesn't? I haven't seen many bad things posted about Linebrink at all since the season started.

I'd be interested in knowing what the batting average from our leadoff spot has been this season, as well as the batting average from the clean-up spot.

Did Anderson stay in the game?

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 17, 2008 -> 04:29 AM) CQ has drawn a lot of walks since his GS in Anaheim. His eye is getting better by the game.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 17, 2008 -> 04:26 AM) I honestly don't remember the last time Cabrera hit one hard. He's hit a couple of balls hard to the outfielders, but nothing that made them run for it. I was more surprised there by how slow he was.

QUOTE (G&T @ May 17, 2008 -> 04:22 AM) How was that for you? That was definitely a change-up. Great managing by Ozzie that inning.

Wow, was that a change-up? Filthy!

We need Boone to get confidence in his slider again. He's more of a fastball only pitcher now.

QUOTE (YASNY @ May 17, 2008 -> 05:18 AM) I seem to remember one game where Buehrle was the 'closer'. Exactly, it doesn't get more perfect that PK trying to steal this season.

What a terrible call at 2nd base. I don't mean this in a bad way, but you can tell Ozzie loves coaching in the NL.

Nice play by Crede. That should be all for Ehren.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 17, 2008 -> 05:15 AM) He was definitely safe. It seemed like it took him forever to get there when the camera zoomed out. Even PK could have been safe there. PK is to base stealing as Mark Buehrle is to closing games.

Wassermann for one batter.

Wow, that looked like a terrible call at 2nd. Anderson must have had a bad jump. He should stay in the game for defensive purposes.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2008 -> 02:17 AM) The Sox have 4 guys in the lineup who I will be shocked if they get a hit today: OC, PK, Ramirez, and Floyd. Hopefully CQ or Crede can have a big night. Ok, maybe one hit

Who's warming up for the Sox?

Oh Hawk....that was magical!

I think Anderson is on deck.

Hit one into the gap in right center Ramirez.

Holy cow, these last three outs have been embarrassing.
