QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 02:50 AM) Looked like he kept throwing a nice change up down. A's pitchers must've throw 40 changeups tonight. That was a slider.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 03:49 AM) You do realize that would be Owens since Richar isn't here. That's fine....we can't have Ozuna and Ramirez both on the roster.

Horrible game...Swisher was the only player to show up tonight. MacDougal and Ramirez need to get sent down, and bring up Wasserman and find a lefty for the bench.

Well, that was an atrocious at bat.

Goodness, can we please add a lefty bat to our bench?

Quentin's not a good match up, as he pulls off that outside pitch. Ozuna or Ramirez should run for AJ.

A's should really walk AJ here.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 02:40 AM) I understand he's an OF, but why oh why would you PR Anderson instead of Ozuna? I really wonder if he's not fully healed. He looked slow in the game he played. Hopefully he's ok.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 02:39 AM) i'm sick of this b****ing about pulling the ball. all year we've been using the whole field. end of story. And look what happens when we abandon that approach. PK's helmet almost fell off on that 3-2 pitch.

Brian Anderson to run? Is Ozuna still not healthy?

I hope he didn't break his neck trying to pull those pitches.

Go Red Sox

Great job by Logan!

Konerko's had some good success against Street in the past.

Weird managing...this is where Linebrink should be coming in.

Now that's filthy!

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 03:27 AM) When he's on, and when he has command of his pitches, he does. Right now, he doesn't have s*** and he's a waste of a roster spot. He hasn't since a game at Oakland about a month after we acquired him.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 03:24 AM) But he has the best stuff of any of our relievers!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, some people on this site aren't very smart. His 92 mph fastball and uncontrollable slider makes him a very average pitcher in terms of stuff now. That was bad managing there, as you have to know the type of hitters MacDougal would be facing. PLEASE GET WASSERMAN ON THE BIG LEAGUE ROSTER!

And there's the Cabrera unimpressive defensive play of the game. Good thing he wasn't behind Jenks in Game 4 of the World Series.

QUOTE (frankie5angels @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 02:20 AM) Thome has no clue at the plate right now. He will not see another fastball until he proves he can lay off the slow in the dirt s***. He is pathetic right now. I would have rather them pinch hit Anderson that AB WHERE IS PABLO!

MacDougal against a patient team is a recipe for disaster.

As someone mentioned earlier, the worst thing that could have happened was Thome's opening day against C.C. It sure would be nice to have Fields with the big league club to play against LHP.

Absolutely pathetic....sit his ass tomorrow. And we're bringing in MacDougal for some odd reason.

Not even close on the first two pitches.

Good job Cabrera....take him out to center big guy!
