  1. QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 19, 2006 -> 02:14 AM) I didn't really "make it". Losing this year is just more frustrating because of unreal expectations. Punching chairs is weak s*** now. I am going to rip out my chair and throw it at you in section 130 Actually, I find it much easier to take a loss this year than last season. There's really no comparison between the emotions involved with games last season, and the games this year.
  2. QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 19, 2006 -> 02:11 AM) If we lose tomorrow I might just jump into a lake. If we lose, at least it will likely be quick.
  3. You know a great way to get better bullpen performances? That's right, get better starting pitching. QUOTE(sircaffey @ May 19, 2006 -> 02:10 AM) At least the Cubs don't have a huge LH threat. That relieves some stress...some. I'm sure J. Jones will be up in a crucial situation...he always is vs the Sox.
  4. QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ May 19, 2006 -> 02:07 AM) Boone better be the f*** off the team and in some minor league area before we square off this weekend. Remember if he is in the pen, Ozzie may use him. Unless Vazquez or Garcia are on the mound. In all seriousness, I don't think he's being sent down. If it was going to happen, it would have been a few days ago.
  5. QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ May 19, 2006 -> 02:04 AM) YUP. jeez thats pretty sad were relying on nelson. everyone keeps saying they cant wait till he comes up. for all we know, he can be trash. Nelson can be absolute trash, but he'll still be a tough guy against righties. Maybe we can have Logan, Montero, and Gload go pick him up at the airport.
  6. QUOTE(jphat007 @ May 19, 2006 -> 02:03 AM) I know it sucks, but we still have the second best record in the AL and baseball. Keep the head up. In all honesty, people shouldn't lose any sleep over not being in first place right now. Divisions aren't decided in May.
  7. QUOTE(Jimbo @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:56 AM) dont know that wheel chair kid can really catch. I'm talking about the original, not that crap that came out last year.
  8. The Bad News Bears would have a better defensive outfield.
  9. QUOTE(jphat007 @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:52 AM) Well. 3-4 trip sucks, but as bad as we played we are lucky it wasn't 1-6 or so. We get it, for the 500000000th time. It would be so great for our offense to get some production from the bottom of the order.
  10. QUOTE(greg775 @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:51 AM) Such a bad at bat by Iguchi. He had to get on base and didn't. At least he contributed tonight. Would have been nice if he didn't give away two ABs playing smallball.
  11. It's shocking that it took me into mid May to say this, but this was Ozzie's worst managed series of the season. Time to have some smart ABs vs Maddux.
  12. Man...Tyler Walker is dominating us.
  13. Haha....great call on the "just missed" prediction by Hawk
  14. QUOTE(jphat007 @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:46 AM) I'm sure he would. But I'm glad he swung at the fastball right down the pipe, even if it was on the first pitch. He missed it. I agree with this. I have no problem with him swinging at a first pitch fastball.
  15. QUOTE(Mplssoxfan @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:46 AM) I'd love to see the reaction on here if Mack had to don the Tools of Ignorance... I'd be much more concerned that AJP got injured.
  16. QUOTE(SSH2005 @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:43 AM) Pods is looking good tonight... He's been great lately though, so I'll take it easy on him.
  17. QUOTE(SSH2005 @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:43 AM) It's the bottom of the 8th inning. C'mon... You can't play like that in the 8th inning. If need be, I'm sure Mackowiak can go behind the plate.
  18. QUOTE(JimH @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:40 AM) I agree with you, I thought it was dumb to leave him in after the Lugo hit. I completely understand having faith in your starting pitcher and sometimes that pays off big time later in the year, but Vazquez clearly didn't have his best stuff tonite, he was grinding hard for most of his innings tonite. As I mentioned earlier in this thread, Vaz hasn't showed the ability to prevent the big inning (which has been his calling card in the majors).
  19. Food for thought.....AJP is a career .300 ph, and Pods is a .200 ph in his career.
  20. QUOTE(JimH @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:37 AM) Yes he did, he said the pitch was up in the zone. I meant in regards to leaving a tiring pitcher in. I was shocked that he left Vazquez in after the Lugo hit. Vazquez had that fatigue look after hanging that curve. Oh well....got to hold them and get a run in the 9th.
  21. QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:36 AM) I hope Pods doesnt ground out to 2nd like a little girl I just want to see him swing hard.
  22. You can do an easy switch if you have AJP hit, and have Pods run for Widger.
  23. QUOTE(jphat007 @ May 19, 2006 -> 01:32 AM) I don't quite understand what you are saying? Can you please repeat it 500 more times for effect. I haven't gotten it the first 300000000000. I just thought it was funny that Hawk mentions how much he loved what Ozzie did, referring to leaving in the pitcher to try and get the win. Then, Vazquez allows a triple to a LEFTY, and he doesn't mention a thing.
  24. Good analysis by Hawk about how the heart of order is assured to hit next inning.
