Jim Thome....that's how you pick your team up. QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 10:02 PM) Ok...that one wasn't a ton Vazquez's fault...that one is all Frank Thomas. It was still a hanger. I don't like how Sandy called for Javy's worst pitch against their most dangerous hitter.

CAN WE PLEASE START PULLING JAVY VAZQUEZ AFTER THE 5TH INNING!!!!!!!

Vazquez and the 6th inning. What a mental midget.

Bradley is a huge batter in this game.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 09:54 PM) He needs to have a great winter. Rest up, get healthy. That will be the best thing for him. It might not be the worst idea for next year to give Thome 1, 2 days off a week. Keep him fresh for the whole season. I would love for the Sox to get a righty bat for the bench who they can play against the tough lefties like C.C., Santana, etc. (even though Thome's done well vs Santana this year).

I hope Ozzie gets up Thornton or MacDougal in the pen.

QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 09:52 PM) anyone else worried that thome might be mediocre next year? I'm not sure if he'll be mediocre....but I think he's going to have to be very lucky to match his numbers from this year.

6th inning....buckle down Vazquez.

Remember when Thome used to hit the ball hard?

Pathetic....why do we keep playing him against lefties?

Time to shut up some of your critics Thome.

Sandy!!! Great job by the much maligned 7-8-9!

Nice rocket off of the bat of Anderson. Watch Ozzie try the squeeze here.

Uribe stayed back nicely on that curve.

Don't forget Mackowiak is going to be making nearly 3 million next year.

QUOTE($I Need Money$ @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 09:38 PM) you haven't been a fan of anything lately. I'm not a fan of people coming into the game thread and not talking about the game. Let's get some runs next inning....the 6th inning Javy is lurking.

Not a fan of Sandy's pitch calling this inning.

Javy's starting to get everything up in the zone.

The turning point of this game could easily be Sandy's 4th inning AB.

I'd so much rather see Gload as our DH.

Way to get behind another fly ball Dye. You let Bradley just walk into 3rd base.

This team just can't concentrate for an entire game. We need a K Mr. Vazquez.

And now it feels like the A's have the momentum back.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 09:05 PM) Well, that will come back to bite us in ass, I say the 7th. 6th

Well...that's just pathetic. KW should be ashamed of himself for acquiring Sandy.
