QUOTE(JimH @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:53 AM) That should definitely be it for El Duque. He did his job, get the bullpen in there. I agree on Cotts for two innings. I'd try to get away with Cotts for one, so he's available if needed for the rest of the series.

BTW, Rusch has a perfect game thru 6 innings.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:51 AM) Was Pablo at short that inning??? No, the Stairs shift.

Duque has to be around the 95 pitch mark. I'd like to see Cotts come in for the 7th, and hopefully continue his stellar relief.

Wow, less than 15k at the park tonight. That's absolutely pathetic.

Am I allowed to mention the last time we had a 5-0 lead agains the Royals after 5 innings?

Time to get someone up in the bullpen Ozzie.

Last inning for Duque?

QUOTE(JimH @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:41 AM) Yup. WTF was I thinking, I just looked it up, Tyler Greene and yeah, Khalil is the San Diego guy. Khalil is a good ballplayer, he plays a good SS. He'll never be the ball player he has the potential to be playing in that park.

QUOTE(JimH @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:38 AM) The Boras client, the SS that I thought the Cardinals drafted, you mentioned the name a few pages back. I thought it was Khalil Greene, no? Khalil is on the Padres. Tyler Greene (or Green) was a SS from Ga Tech who got drafted by the Cardinals late in the first round this year.

QUOTE(JimH @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:37 AM) Khalil Greene? What?

QUOTE(whitesoxmanager @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:36 AM) cardinals are going to get no hit tonight... If they do, at least it's Rusch. You'd never hear the end of it if it was Prior, Zambrano, or Maddux.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:35 AM) Lighten up Francis. Were up by 5, riding a 5 game winning streak in September. Because of my self-imposed ban for the postseason, I need to get all my thoughts out now!

Good job Duque!!

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:31 AM) Nor should he. We have no one that could fill that roll cept for maybe pablo. The thing is, as good as Ozuna has been hitting, he's not a real run producer. He's perfect for the 9th spot in the lineup. There's not a doubt in my mind that our offense is better with Ozuna at 3rd base than Crede.

Do any of our 3rd baseman make foul pop ups look easy? Seriously, even Blum looked like he struggled catching foul balls over the weekend. Poor fathom.....scared for life because of Joe Crede vs Manny Ramirez.

QUOTE(BFirebird @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:28 AM) is it just me or does tadahito or rowand fit the 3 hole better than carl...i think carl is a 5-6 hole hitter myself We can argue for years, but Iguchi's not moving from the 2 spot this season.

How long will Ozzie let Duque go in this game? I'm hoping to see him get thru 6 innings with only one run allowed, and then go to the bullpen. Ozzie should have learned recently that once Duque looks like he's losing it, you need to pull him.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:25 AM) Carl is trying to pull EVERYTHING right now He should get a day off during this series. We have plenty of players to fill in for him. Gload should play 1b tomorrow, and let PK DH.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:20 AM) Good job Duque. Didn't KC score 17 the other day? Yeah, their last game.

Good job Duque!!!

Ugh, Duque's getting himself into trouble.

Potential big batter in this game for Duque.

It seems like the radar gun is a little quick tonight, as Duque was just clocked at 93 mph. Jenks might be able to throw 107 with this gun.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 01:04 AM) Didn't Boston pick 24th? I seem to recall the Cardinals taking that Georgia Tech SS (Boras client -- can't think of his name) at (what I thought was) 30th...? Greene is his name, IIRC. Tyler Greene
