QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 07:25 PM) I love non-managing. It boggles my mind how bad of a manager he is.

Tough luck....Mackowiak should have never been hitting there though. Great managing again. Please fix this roster KW.

Oh good grief Ozzie.....you have a righty hitter on the bench.

Cintron better be hitting for Mackowiak.

Very symbollic of our hitting right there. Way to keep the head in there PK.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 07:18 PM) the Indians radio announcers are talking about Ozzie having no confidence in Anderson and Molina at the plate. Anderson and Molina's parents don't have confidence in them at the plate.

Ozzie should force Wedge's hand by putting a righty up for Erstad, and hopefully get C.C. out of the game.

Oh Pablo! I love that guy.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 07:13 PM) It is hard to hit in the cold. The Indians have a great offense. They aren't exactly hammering the ball. If the Sox could play defense early on, they could be winning this game. I know it's hard to hit in the cold....still no excuse for terrible at-bats/approach. We didn't hit well in Oakland either. Hope everything is going well DA.

QUOTE(DrunkBomber @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 07:12 PM) Instead of having to listen to Ozzie post game can we just play some soundbites from Pineillas press conference last week about how its hard to hit in the cold. Please let Ozzie talk....hopefully someone gets him ranting.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 07:09 PM) What makes this worse is that the alleged major league hitters in our line up are just as good. And the good news about about major league hitters is that they have big contracts and are not going anywhere except for maybe Dye. Crede will be gone this offseason, and Iguchi might as well.

QUOTE(rafacosta @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 07:02 PM) That's why BA is on the bench...trying to be a hero! One hit ball by our SP and we still find a way to be losing... I thought that was one of the better swings I can remember from Anderson.

QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 07:08 PM) Its cold, we cant be expected to hit. So you're saying it was cold during the entire 2nd half of last season when we saw a very similar offense?

Look at our lineup today....what a freaking disgrace. We have three minor league caliber hitters in our lineup. Thankfully, KW was more focused on upgrading our pitching for 2010 then he was for upgrading what was a tired offense for 50 pct of last season.

Wedding shower time....it would be a delightful gift to come back and see the Sox are winning or game was postponed.

QUOTE(zenryan @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 05:29 PM) I swear, why do I even bother watching this team against lefties? Thankfully we don't face many LHP in the AL Central.

Wow, just terrible. This team is flat as can be. It's like the hitting just continued from the 2nd half of last year.

Crede's swing there was the epitome of why we suck vs LHP. High outside pitch, and he gave himself no chance but to pull it in the air. QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 05:25 PM) So wait, CC got in the way of a routine play and as a result they ruled it a hit? Yes

Why don't we ever have Dye shift Sizemore more down the line?

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 05:23 PM) Was Darin's single to the pitcher a full swing? It was....it would have been a routine grounder to SS. Would you agree that he's hitting a soft .200?

Better velocity on that pitch up in the zone.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 05:19 PM) NICE f***ING PLAY CREDE Missed it, what happened?

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 05:18 PM) I have a hard time with Gustavo Molina being a major league catcher. He should be catching in AA. Like WHarris said before, anyone that thinks losing Toby Hall wasn't a big deal should do themselves a favor and just not watch baseball anymore.

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 05:18 PM) I see the Count is real sharp again today. Looks like he's throwing about 88 mph.

It's going to be a disappointing year for everyone if we don't figure out a way to hit Santana, Sabathia, and every other tough lefty we face.
