QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:47 AM) This is a playoff team? This is go time? We're too inconsistent to be a playoff team, and our starting pitchers give up 4 or 5 runs way too often. Unless we start getting better play from nearly this entire team, we're going to have a hell of a time trying to make the playoffs.

Ha...nice range out there.

The disturbing thing tonight is not only are we leaving a lot of guys on, but the at-bats with RISP have been dreadful. QUOTE(kwolf68 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:44 AM) It WILL BE (if things stay as is) games like this that will cost us the division. No way we should be getting shutdown by this guy and this team. KC won't be a pushover this weekend either as inconsistent as we are playing right now...KC took 2 of 4 last trip around so Im not counting any of those games either. We need more speed, a better leadoff hitter, and two new starters in place of Vazzy and Garcia...then we'll be OK We're actually facing three solid pitchers this wknd (all who have a good changeup). I'm sure Grudz will reach base 10 times this wknd.

QUOTE(SinkingShip06 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:43 AM) have you been watching this team all year? this is who they are this year. HOMERUN or NADA. i say they should have kept thome on the bench and played gload. GLOAD IN LF, THOME AT DH!

Dye pulled off a very impressive trifecta of not running hard to first, third, or home in the same inning.

Another pathetic AB. Simply put, Tampa is a better team tonight.

Our offense is useless when we don't hit homers.

Some more terrible base running. Where's the freaking slide?

Time to cash in.

QUOTE(Leonard Zelig @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:33 AM) Luis Castillo just left the game with an injury. Knee injury, not sure if it's his ligaments though.

Iguchi = no bat speed anymore

QUOTE(rowand @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:30 AM) can reggie sanders play left field? yes. please send pods away. Sanders is out for the year.

KC just tied the Twins!

QUOTE(iguchi=dank @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:25 AM) KW NEEDS to step in and do the right thing and tell Pods he's going on the "DL" because he's been struggling with an "injury." Ozzie won't do it because gload and mack are lefthanders mostly, and he doesn't like to take starters out that at least give their all. Pods gives is all, but he sucks. KW please for the good of the team step the F in. Are you kidding...after the last few days, the Pods bandwagon was getting full again.

Upton will likely be scoring in a minute or so. I've never seen him throw so many offspeed pitches.

2 more days, and people will be clamoring for Ryan Sweeney in LF.

Time for some high offspeed pitches by Garland. QUOTE(kwolf68 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:22 AM) Paging Mr Podsednik...Paging Mr Podsednik...Satan is on the line and he asked if you still remember your World Series walkoff homer? He is here to collect your soul Satan has the direct line to the Sox clubhouse, as he's been talking with Hermanson, Politte, and Cotts an awful lot this year.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:20 AM) Pods 2 Bench! Pods 2 different organization

I hate you Pods! Seriously, we need Gload in LF.

What an awful 2-0 swing. QUOTE(Maverick0984 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:18 AM) I feel a Pods Homer What about jphat?

Big spot for Pods to have a good AB.

Tons of called strikes against us tonight.

Very nice swing by Crede finally. Is it too early to ph for Uribe? I know it is...but I don't like his chances.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:10 AM) 3 fastballs down the cock to Joey. He is behind them so much, because he is trying to lift and pull and hit some cars on the dan ryan. You see how much his right leg is moving on his swings? QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:11 AM) Why can't anyone on this team, aside from Dye and Anderson, be content with a base hit? There's another few on the team, but they're on the bench.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:09 AM) Nice f***ing approach. The corpseball offense has checked in for the night. You can tell by the amount of popups, Ks and suicide shrugs/bat slams you get. Also men get stranded in scoring position. This is disgusting...it's the Runelvys/Bernero games all over again.
