Get Gload in at 1B, and Sweeney or Mackowiak into RF.

Might as well pull Thome now.

He's having a good year.

Oh boy...hopefully he's ok.

QUOTE(iguchi=dank @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 12:52 AM) fathom, guchi is mad at you for wanting to trade him this offseason. watch your mouth damnit. Why hasn't that worked for Pods and Garcia then?

Haha....that's amazing.

Some excellent swings by the Sox tonight.

Choo is a very impressive hitter. Anderson seems a step slow right now on the field...I wonder if he's fatigued?

Two great swings by Iguchi tonight. Good job by Pods getting on base, as the SB is academic.

QUOTE(tealeafreaderii @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 11:44 PM) twins jumped out to a 2-0 lead The Tigers really, really miss Polanco. Big time!

Garland looks less than sharp so far. He's throwing a ton of offspeed pitches.

Ok Garland, you have to keep the momentum going. He needs to start locating the inside sinker a lot better.

AJP's homer went in a similar spot as did Valentin's walkoff a few years back against the Cubs and Alf.

Thome has been awesome against sinker ball pitchers this year. Thome survives the DJ jinx. WOW! Excellent, excellent timing for him to get a hold of one. 101 RBI for PK now.

Keep running against this Carmona/VMart combo. QUOTE(tealeafreaderii @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 11:26 PM) I'm taking a social psychology class and we just learned about the "self fulfilling prophesy" Gotcha...I know you made this same comment yesterday, so I figured it was something like that.

Does anyone have the stat about how bad our leadoff hitter in the first inning has been since the ASB?

QUOTE(tealeafreaderii @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 11:21 PM) Scotty Pods is playing with a passion and fire this game that has been absent the past few months. I think this bodes well for the remainder of the season. He has?

Haha...nice call by Blackjack there. Still one more huge out here to keep the momentum.

He's thrown 3 balls to three straight hitters now. He needs to start throwing that sinker in on the hands.

Garland needs to start working ahead in the count. Keep the momentum going, and get a DP here.

Hafner's out for the season.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 09:32 PM) To be honest with you, I thought it was a fly ball to the warning track like he usually does. Didn't think he got enough of it. That's true, but since he hit it towards center field, you had to know it wasn't one of his big swings that he gets off the end of the bat.

QUOTE(Wanne @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 09:28 PM) That's a nice way to put it fathom. Very true...but I probably would have said..."thank the baseball gods AJP can't but worth a crap....". Still blows me away he went down and got not that bad of an 0-2 pitch. He took such a short swing on that pitch. When he first hit it, I thought it had a chance. However, Hawk was quiet for quite a while on that play, and then finally reacted when Sizemore ran out of room.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 09:23 PM) I don't know if that win will start a run, but a loss last night could have crushed the Sox. Thank the baseball gods for that 2-run AJ bomb!!! And thank the baseball gods that AJP didn't get the bunt down.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 09:18 PM) I wouldn't. Good young pitchers are harder to find than good young outfielders. That's why it's too bad we haven't seen more of McCarthy as a starter. Right now, who knows how good he can be. We do know that Crawford is a budding superstar who is improving every season.
