Can I take option C in center field?

QUOTE(Felix @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 03:22 AM) Thats actually looks pretty accurate. Everyone seems so slow on the paths. I'm just stunned at how we're out by so much, and other teams make it look so easy.

Will the Yanks keep Rivera in?

QUOTE(Felix @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 03:21 AM) Doesn't matter if Bobby gets Bernie out. Well, duh. But to let the guy get in RISP so that a single scores him is making it too easy for them.

QUOTE(G&T @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 03:21 AM) Stealing is no problem for them. The base distance for us is 100 ft., and it's 80 ft. for them.

Ha....I'm so thankful we hold on runners. This type of baseball is inexcusable.

Not a very good frame job by Sandy.

Nothing over the plate here. Damn...that was a strike on Crede.

This umpire's strike zone is insane. Squeeze the ball Sandy, and get that curve down Jenks. Ok...be careful with ARod. He's swinging the bat great today.

Whew! I thought for sure he'd be guarding the line.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 03:11 AM) This team is so slow. It's really amazing to see. It's like they're having to run to bases that are 100 feet away instead of 90.

Jenks has the heart of the Yanks order up in the 10th. As Felix says, he really struggles in these situations.

Small ball has resulted in 4 outs on the bases tonight.

Wow...this is pathetic. Is Ozzie this much of an idiot?

Yep...great fundamentals this team has. It's too bad we don't have someone we can have run off the bench (and play respectable defense).

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 03:07 AM) AJ, get Dye over to second. Then, it's Joe Crede time. You mean Brian Anderson time?

BTW...Ozzie deserves a lot of credit for bringing in Jenks before.

We've had better swings vs Rivera this year than any team I've ever seen. Take him out to RF also Jermaine!

PAULIE!!! Lets win this now.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 03:04 AM) Dear god that might ahve been the pitch. Hope for another Paul. Yep...it was right there.

Teams run at will against us when stealing and when taking the extra base. Meanwhile, we keep getting thrown out by 5 feet on our steal attempts, and we can't take an extra base on a hit to save our lives. I too would like to see more hit-and-runs, because at least you can protect the runner a little bit.

QUOTE(S720 @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 03:01 AM) Stick this in your mind. Anderson CAN NOT play 162 games. There will be games when he NEEDs to be replaced, and if we end up losing those games, so be it! And stop blaming every fishing thing on Ozzie. ROB MACKOWIAK IS NOT A CENTER FIELDER!!! How many more times does he have to mess up a play in CF before our manager figures this out? If Anderson needs a break, then KW needs to find a backup CF.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 03:00 AM) Would be nice, wouldn't it. At least Bobby has some marbles. The last pitcher to step up and really make a huge pitch was Riske at KC.

QUOTE(S720 @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 02:58 AM) It's just so childish and absurd to see that every fishing move Ozzie makes is being fishing criticized! I think a lot of the goodwill he earned last year is wearing out with particular posters. And it's not just people on soxtalk going off on Ozzie. Every call on the post game show was criticizing him. I'd rather this team just start winning, and Ozzie fades back into being a non-subject.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 02:58 AM) Exactly. Some people are reaching for someone to b**** about. The 8th inning was just a clusterf***, but Ozzie doesn't deserve too much blame for the decision. One of these days, a Sox pitcher will shows some guts in a tough situation.
