fathom

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 05:01 AM) It would have been a close play. Either way someone with a real arm should have been in LF. We've been so non-blessed with pathetic throws to home over the last few years that people forget that it's possibly to get guys out.

This game was lost in the 7th inning, in my opinion. Also, walking Buck was so idiotic. It made it so Jenks had to throw a strike to Ellis.

QUOTE(shoota @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 04:59 AM) Todd Walker's a good hitter. He has a better approach at the plate than 90 pct of our hitters. What was a worse managerial decision: - Not having a righty hit for Mackowiak in the 8th - Not having Anderson in the game defensively

QUOTE(shoota @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 04:58 AM) We could trade him OR we could fire Guillen and obtain a manager who evaluates talent better. Ozzie's going nowhere this year, so we'll probably just let Anderson waste away on the dugout.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 04:57 AM) But guys, guys, Ozzie won us a world series!!!!!!1111!!!!!111!!!11 I love the ozzie backers. I sleep better at night knowing that he won't be the manager of the Sox for too many more years. This offense has to start having better at-bats. Way too many guys looking like they've lost a step.

Well, it's only been 7 games, but at least KW looks like a genius for not extending Crede or Dye.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 04:55 AM) Too bad Anderson is rotting away on the bench too. It sucks to see such talent go to waste. We definitely need to trade him. I feel bad for the guy. He is too talented to not be playing. Hell, I'd rather see him at AAA if Ozzie is going to be soooooo f***ing stubborn. Yep, we might as well send Anderson down now. The great Erstad is just doing too much at the plate for him to ever deserve more than a start every other week.

I'm so disappointed in AJP. Some terrible pitch calling to Todd Walker. You could tell on the pitch he fouled off before the hit that he was sitting on that curve.

No excuses for what happened in the 7th inning letting Mackowiak bat. Leaving Pods in for defense in the 9th is so stupid, but it's obvious Ozzie's hate for Anderson has clouded how he needs to use him. That's #1 of the season Ozzie.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 04:46 AM) WHY IS PODS IN THE GAME OZZIE YOU f***ING c*** One of the poorest managed games I've ever seen.

Pods mistimed that jump horrifically. Nice fastball Jenks.

Well, I officially hate Ozzie and Pods again.

Damn....that's why Pods can't be out there. Walker was sitting on that pitch. WHERE THE HELL IS JENKS FASTBALL!

I love the pitch call on 3-2 there. Walker is a b**** at the plate....play shallow Pods.

There we go. Catch the ball AJ!

89 mph?

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 04:34 AM) Andddddddddddd were f***ed We deserve it for that s*** in the 7th inning.

Oh boy....89 mph fastball there.

Oh boy...here we go. 92 mph fastball isn't going to get it done.

QUOTE(Wedge @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 04:32 AM) but what a hilarious RBI at that. Great point

One of the worst overall nights of hitting in Crede's career.

QUOTE(kwolf68 @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 04:28 AM) Our batting average is horrible, but you see what happens when you get great pitching. You have close games instead of blow outs?

Quite an interesting guest on Letterman. I was so impressed with Howard's segment on Real Sports.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 04:25 AM) I was going to say, that's an inside strike to the left handers but it's outside for the righties. I have such hate for C.B. The thing is, I can't remember exactly why. All I know is he f***s up something whenever I watch him.

Great job by MacDougal throwing strikes.
