Whew...that looked dangerous off of the bat.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 07:27 PM) Ack, Contreras threw an 0-2 pitch right down the middle of the plate. Just a great swing by Hunter on the forkball.

3-2 game. Mauer's just sitting on the Contreras fastball.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 07:20 PM) He makes me sick to my stomach. I hated AJP a lot more than Ford when he was on the Twins. I hate Hunter now...but I'd be thrilled if we added him or Ford to our team.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 07:19 PM) Lew Ford is one of a few half way decent players in baseball that I would never want to see in a Sox uni. Really? I would take him on this team in a heartbeat.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 07:19 PM) Thome sucks. Swinging for the fences.

Good job pitching over the leadoff single. Thome is right on this pitcher.....he might hit one a mile this AB.

I'd like to see Contreras try to put away the hitter with the forkball with 2 strikes.

We've been spoiled by our left side of the infield. I thought Uribe was going to make that play.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 07:04 PM) He killed that one. See what happens when you swing the bat.

Anderson just missed that one.

Ah hell....keep swinging for the fences.

Crede....he's good

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 06:59 PM) Green? Nope

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 06:56 PM) I have a problem with the SB attempt because Iguchi isn't that fast like you said and Dye has a lot of power. He could actually knock in Iguchi from 1B. It's amazing how good our record has been considering how poor our SB percentage is, and how easy it is to steal against our pitchers.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 06:54 PM) Where are you implying he should be shot? From the sound of it, even shooting him wouldn't satisfy some people because he'd be too non-chalant when he'd die.

QUOTE(Ndgt10 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 06:52 PM) What is your point? I wasn't telling him to change the way he plays. I was just saying that I PERSONALLY don't like how he looks so non-chalant. Am I not allowed to have an opinion? Talk about overreacting to a comment. What are you, his butt bud? Yeah...bring back Timo, he knew how to play with passion in the outfield.

Leadoff walk for Contreras.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 06:50 PM) So he overruns one ball and suddenly he's not trying out there. If anything he was overamped to start the game, he busted it to the ball and ended up over running it. What exactly is your point? I would say that all three of our outfielders aren't exactly graceful in the outfield. As long as they catch it, I don't care.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 06:49 PM) I figure that anybody past kindergarten could figure that out. Unfortunately hitting is not as easy as just that. True...but you make hitting a lot more difficult when you take first pitch strike and you don't protect the plate with 2 strikes.

Hunter....he's good.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 06:46 PM) He said you can't have a guy hitting under .200 in your lineup in May. THe world champions did last year. Just wanted to point that out. And can I vote for you to become our next hitting coach? These nuggets like, "You can't get a hit without swiging the bat' could really help our hitters. Since we're "joking around", can you become the pitching coach and tell our guys to throw high curveballs?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 06:45 PM) That makes absolutely no sense, the guy is getting to the ball and is using proper form to catch it. But you want him what, to look pissed off as he catches? What does that do? Yep, I don't care how he looks, as long as he makes the play. That's like someone saying that Uribe is too laid back in the field, and they'd rather he play like a spaz like Nomar.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 06:45 PM) Let Iguchi swing away please. I hate playing for one run with the way our 3-4-5 is going.

There you go Pods. Good swing with 2 strikes.
