We have 9 outs to try and comeback in this game. The good news is that Garcia's on the mound...so the Royals have a great chance at the sweep if they win tonight.

QUOTE(Wealz @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 12:36 AM) Tom Kelly also found a cure for the common cold. I can't imagine how anyone can think Ozzie is doing a good job this season. That's my thoughts on him, end of story. QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 12:36 AM) I really thought Buehrle was back after his last start. He's in the Garcia mode where I have no clue how he gets guys out.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 12:35 AM) When was the last time Hawk said Ozzie won't let happen what is actually happening? Never....this team is close to being done with. Our players look fatigued, and we're not doing anything to generate any excitement. Anderson's inability to catch that ball might cost us this game.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 12:34 AM) Crappy little dribbler to 3rd ties the game. 1 out, runner on 3rd. You have to play your 3rd baseman closer in that situation.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 12:34 AM) Kelly had a lot to do with the Twins success after he left. They didn't like the fact that he made them take infield and run drills after games they lost and lost because of stupid plays. He taught them how to play the game the right way. No offense to anyone, but can we actually discuss the game and stop with the Ozzie pro/con right now. If we don't improve, there's 28 more games until we can talk about this 24/7.

Yep, we suck. That's a ball that has to be caught.

I see absolutely no focus or intensity by this team right now. KW deserves more criticism than he's received in regards to not upgrading this offense at the deadline.

What has happened to our offense? Another game, another miserable effort so far. Great start to this inning.

Nice observation by Hawk about not pitching inside enough, followed by an inside cutter hit into a DP. QUOTE(Wealz @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 12:10 AM) You're describing God, not Tom Kelly. You mean Ozzie?

Nice patience this inning. Uribe's continuing his campaign to be gone after this season.

Buehrle with a beautiful pitch to get Teahen, and gets out of the inning.

What a dumb decision to have Iguchi covering 2nd. Nice of Buehrle to retain this lead.

Can Buehrle hold the Royals scoreless after we give him the lead?

A little redemption for Crede. Yay!

I love Dye, but when he's bad, he's REAL bad. I hate the idea of Iguchi bunting.

Can I wish for a 3 run homer this inning?

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 2, 2006 -> 11:34 PM) I think Konerko is better defensively although Paulie would never had made the play Gload did the other day. I have a hard time believing Gload would hit .300 if he was a regular. PK is infinitely better at scooping throws in the dirt.

QUOTE(beautox @ Sep 2, 2006 -> 11:33 PM) Players i would like to see gone next year from the chicago white sox; Garcia, Uribe, Podsednik, im on the fence about vazquez and jose. I think you'll get your wish with Pods and Uribe. I won't believe Garcia's gone until it's official, as I can't see Ozzie trading his buddy.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 2, 2006 -> 11:32 PM) Well maybe the Sox will think the Detroit series on the 18th, 19th and 20th will be big enough to show up at. I wonder when they will feel the game is important. They don't seem too intense to me. Jerry Manuel was fired for a team that showed more intensity than this team has over the last 2 months.

QUOTE(G&T @ Sep 2, 2006 -> 11:32 PM) It seems to me that Gload could have starter somewhere for a while. But I doubt he'd ever be the first baseman for a winner. He needs to be our leadoff hitter for the rest of this season.

Sickening approach by Uribe.

Nice swing by our 3rd best hitter right now. Keep it going BA.

Am I crazy for liking the Royals lineup more than the Sox tonight?

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 2, 2006 -> 11:21 PM) Buerhle looks real sharp. Not. Every pitch is right down the heart of the plate.

Man do we suck. Sweeney was obviously looking for the inside pitch there after fouling off 5 straight fastballs outside, so we give in to him.
