QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 07:28 PM) 2 of those were leadoff walks. Neither came after after we just scored. Yah I understand. I understand you dont' have any clue what you are saying. How anyone can blame Contreras right now is beyond me.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 07:26 PM) We f***ING suck Yes we do! The way we're playing right now, there's about 20 other teams in baseball that I think would be the Sox in a 3 game series.

Nice that our veteran hitters in the lineup are just tanking down the stretch. PK got another awful pitch by Lohse, and looked like a pitcher hitting.

What a terrible 3-1 swing by PK!

QUOTE(Tadahito15 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 07:24 PM) Ugh. I hate the Twins with a fiery passion. I hate every team in baseball right now.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 07:23 PM) That wasn't that great of a play. The ball wasn't hit that hard. Yeah, but to get the flip off in time was impressive.

Is it too much to ask for a 3 run homer?

Instead of Go, Go, Go......it should be NO, NO, NO!

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 07:21 PM) He had a 2.16 ERA in August and a 2.66 ERA in September. He is dominating. What are you talking about. I'm not talking about the team I am talking about Contreras. Agreed! He's the last person to be blamed for the collapse.

What a terrible AB by Uribe. I don't care if he worked the count full. He's not swinging straight up.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 07:13 PM) LOL. No one's saying he sucks? LOL. What board are you reading? Did I miss something? You said he sucks, as likely a way to make fun of people who were upset with how the inning started. Speaking on behalf of the more negative posters on this site, I was saying that not one of us think he sucks.

QUOTE(downstairs @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 07:11 PM) Agreed... he has got to be much faster to pull starters.... screw respect.... give up 2 runs, you're gone for the evening. Except for Garcia, who has earned the right to be allowed to go as long as possible, EVEN if the manager thinks he might be injured.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 07:12 PM) Contreras sucks. His sub 2.50 ERA the last month and a half isn't good enough! No one is saying he sucks! However, he's definitely prone to having innings where it looks like he can't remember how to pitch.

Wow, thank you AJP!

Has Jose thrown a single fork ball for a strike today?

Ozzie should get someone up in the pen before Contreras gives up 4 runs this inning.

Yankees are now down 5-3 and threatening.

Nice to see our pitcher hold the other team after we score. If Contreras can't get control of his fork ball, he's going to give up a lot of runs today.

QUOTE(AirScott @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:55 PM) I've been saying that since April. going into the draft, we had bigger worries than RB, if we draft Mike Williams we'd be drafting the receiver we thought David Terrell would be. I had the same argument with CWSGuy last week. Isn't it amazing how a good WR like Moose can get open, yet guys who are never double-teamed like Gage can't?

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 07:02 PM) Dude. That was a fastball on teh outside corner. The 1-1 pitch was a hanging slider he fouled off over 3rd base dugout.

Blum continues to be a liability in the lineup. Outside of the double in extra innings vs the Twins, he's been worthless.

There you go Rowand. Thankfully Ford misplayed that, or there was going to be a close play at home. Does PK stop before he gets to a base, and tip-toe so that he can touch the base? His base running reminds me of Albert Belle's home run trot!

Rowand fouls off an absolute meatball of a pitch. Here comes the slider away for the K.

This has all the makings of a bad decision by Cora.

Awful swing by Dye. He acted like he was protecting on an 0-2 count.
