What a team full of pussies.

Go F yourself Sandy.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 10:30 PM) I hate this place (Oakland that is) I hate our team's psyche.

Our relief has given up runs in like 90 pct of our games over the last 20 or so games.

Ozzie took out our only good reliever for someone who's been out 4 days due to an injury. He sure has the magic tough this season.

QUOTE(My Dixie Normus @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 10:27 PM) Vaz gets screwed again. Well, if he could ever not choke in the 6th inning, maybe he'd get more wins.

MacDougal looked like he wasn't comfortable in the bullpen when they showed him earlier in the inning.

Our bullpen chokes again. We just flat out suck. Who in the hell teaches our minor league players fundamentals?

Ugh...gotta throw strikes to that non-home run threat.

Wow...that looked like strike 3.

Thornton doing Johnson a favor by throwing his weak slider.

Wow...that first pitch was right down the plate.

QUOTE(Reddy @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 10:10 PM) yeah i know that, but this sixth inning was NOT a failure. thats what you dont understand Ok...I'll replaced "failed" with "doesn't do well".

Vazquez is at 98 pitches, but he's been up in the zone the past two innings. Ozzie will probably let him start the inning, but I hope MacDougal and Thornton are ready this inning.

QUOTE(Reddy @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 10:08 PM) thats ridiculous The stats don't lie. He fails almost every time he pitches in the 6th inning.

Nice AB PK

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 10:07 PM) Seriously, did you even look at the replays of Frank's swing there? He barely got that pitch, and he just muscled it out. Yes, I saw it. He was fooled by the pitch call, but it was still a meatball enough of a pitch for him to get out with not much behind the swing. Am I the only one that saw a hanging curveball?

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 10:04 PM) Lol even the announcers were like we have no clue how he hit that one out with that swing... some times you guys need to learn to give credit to the hitters. Especially future HoF's. Vazquez hasn't seen an offspeed pitch he won't hang in the 6th inning.

Cotts is warming up? What in the hell is going on in our dugout?

Good grief, get this headcase out of the game!!!!!!

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).
