  1. QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 03:14 AM) Thome's OBP is great, but my point is, he doesn't HAVE to homer to be an influence on our games. He's been great in every sense for us. His inability to contribute against lefty pitchers has really hurt us lately.
  2. QUOTE(daa84 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 03:11 AM) when was 2? He hit a go-ahead homer off of Contreras at the Cell last year. I think Kevin Walker then blew a lead we had later in the game.
  3. QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 03:11 AM) Dissapointed. I am hoping that it is a bullpen thing. I desperately want to believe it because we'll need him next year in the rotation. He is flat out not good right now. Also dissapointed BA is slumping again, but that shouldn't be a huge surprise. The disappointing thing to me about McCarthy is that not only are his results bad, but his stuff is medicore on the mound right now. He's in the Garcia mode where I don't have a clue how he gets guys out.
  4. QUOTE(daa84 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 03:10 AM) we need those runs on base....i dont want this to turn into dallas macphearson off of contreras part 2 Part 3, you mean.
  5. QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 03:08 AM) Thank you. I came in trying to be civil. Fathom and I were having a good convo! And it appears as though I am good luck to boot! I was actually going to say that you were being good luck. What's your opinion on McCarthy? I know there's certain young guys you're not fans of, so I was wondering what you thought of him.
  6. QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 03:06 AM) You seem to continuously respond to a certain posters posts, what's the difference? We've long been agreeing to disagree, so I don't really mind when he picks on me. We had our moment of love when I congratulated him after Pods walkoff homer last year.
  7. Having Crede in our lineup makes it seem so much stronger and deeper. Just a few days ago, Anderson was batting 7th.
  8. Excellent!! We've had a string of 9 good at-bats now. 2 more big runs out on the bases.
  9. QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 03:03 AM) Holy Christ. Paulie hit a low and away pitch to RF. He must of remembered last years ALCS when he banged a few off the RF fence. Man, he had a terrific AB against KRod in game 5.
  10. QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 03:02 AM) Sure why not? I'm feeling particularly pessimistic tonight. I'll get over it if we don't. Last year, it would have been a very, very long offseason.
  11. Wow...what a great approach by PK. We have to find a way to get this run in.
  12. QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 03:00 AM) So how is everybody gonna feel about not making the playoffs this year? Is this a serious question?
  13. QUOTE(daa84 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 02:58 AM) agreed....thats his hot zone...just watch game 1 of hte ALCS I was there...it sounded like a cannon going off.
  14. Terrible pitch selection. We're lucky he didn't hit that out.
  15. We saw that Vlad 6-3 grounder about 20 times last October. QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 02:56 AM) Dye bashing his knee Saturday has him very tentative around walls. He may have caught Sizemore's foul ball yesterday had he not hurt himself the night before. Sizemore then wouldn't have tripled. That was a huge play in the game. I feel bad blaming Dye, but that was a turning point in the game.
  16. Contreras is dropping down a lot more this inning. His velocity drops like 3-4 mph when he throws sidearm.
  17. QUOTE(beautox @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 02:50 AM) karma for the '05 ALCS? I'll gladly take the revenge.
  18. QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 02:50 AM) That was lucky, but the Sox can't shake their heads and feel sorry for themselves. I know it was a fluke play...but our runners seem to have an issue about freezing on a liner.
  19. QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 02:39 AM) It seems like the Sox go for real long stretches without baserunner an awful lot lately. Maybe the toll of having to provide so much offense this season has worn on them. They're just not being consistently tough outs.
