QUOTE(iamshack @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:56 AM) No Hawk, MACK COST US FOUR RUNS. Uribe could have turned the damn double play to end the inning if Mack isn't picking his ass out there. Exactly. Mackowiak's defense in center field is just killing us. Especially with Anderson hitting better, there's no f***ing excuse to keep putting Rob out there.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:54 AM) Thats what I said. They've got 'it' this year. Good, that's what I thought you meant.

I hope Hawk's not blaiming Uribe for that play.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:53 AM) They've got it this year. They are lucky as hell. Yep, they keep getting lucky that Vazquez hangs pitches. They had a couple of bloopers, but they capitalized on some awful pitches.

Was that another f***ing curveball? He might as well not throw another one all season. Get a f***ing pair Vazquez, and drill Shelton.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:51 AM) He made one bad pitch and pudge hit it. Besides that though, you're right he's making pitches. If he can get out of it, I'll be pretty impressed. He has to get out of it though. It's just amazing how he can never avoid that big inning. He's a mental midget.

QUOTE(iamshack @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:49 AM) Mack got a crap jump. And Brian plays as shallow as anyone in the league. Please, someone get off Scottie's ass and start talking about Mack's. How about we just get better outfield defense all around?

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:48 AM) Of course he doesn't. But BA doesn't get there either. It was way short of Mack. It was close enough that when you consider the difference in defensive ability between the two, you have to think Anderson would have made the play.

Ha...interesting play, but I'll take it.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:46 AM) No. He is not THAT much faster than Mack. ANd Mack got a solid jump. Doesn't Anderson play a lot more shallow though? I know Guillen's pissing you off with all these bloopers against us this year.

Keep hanging that offspeed pitch Javier, it will fool them.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:45 AM) Would Anderson have gotten to that? Very likely, and I'm not one of those posters who think Anderson will catch anything.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:45 AM) Incredible. They are lucky as f***. And our manager NEVER LEARNS!

Ha...keep losing us games Ozzie with Mackowiak in center.

Wow...some questionable infield positioning this inning. I can't stand Javier Vazquez.

s***. The funny thing is that Farmio told Vazquez to never throw IRod an 0-2 offspeed pitch.

Farmio told Vazquez to throw inside fastballs to IRod with 2 strikes.

Ugh, not a very good start. I don't recall Polanco bunting very much...kinda surprised we were playing so close on him.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:30 AM) Mackowiak is not a CF. As a corner OF though his defensive is pretty good. Mack just doesnt have the range for CF. Not his fault. I would like to see Anderson in CF, and Mack move over to LF. Mackowiak actually has a fantastic arm for a LF. Wow, I thought Thome had that one.

Hawk made that sound like it was gone off the bat, and it didn't even make the warning track.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:28 AM) in the race to the bottom, I guess I'd take Pods' OF play over Mack's, just barely though. I'll take Mackowiak's defense in LF over Pods in LF or Mackowiak in CF.

Nothing's ever esay for this outfield.

QUOTE(Jimbo @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:25 AM) Pods sucks unless we are playing the Stros. Pods for Lidge? QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:25 AM) Dimitri Podsednik? Haha, I was going to suggest that. Did D. Young ever get his World Series ring from last year? He was one of our clutchest players.

BTW, Pods is 2-31 vs the Tigers this year.
