Has Rowand thrown out any runners at home this season? I can't remember any.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 09:09 PM) They shouldn't be celebrating s*** until they wrap this division up! So, what's our projected clinch date? Honestly, I'm thrilled with how this week went. I'm nervous about the Rangers series, as I don't think we can outslug them. Their hitter seem to match up very well with our pitchers.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 09:09 PM) Anyone ever see the movie Hostage? Does that have to deal with Cotts and his life in the last week?

What's the chances that some of the games in Texas are rained out because of the impending hurricane?

QUOTE(qwerty @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 09:07 PM) He is one of the top fielders in baseball. Realistically i would only take hunter over him and maybe sizemore. Offesively though he has been very disappointing... but these are the numbers i was thinking about at the start of the year. When you combine throwing arm/accuracy into the equation, that's where I think someone like Rowand is overrated. Basically, if we had a power offense, then he would fit in well. However, when you already have a SS and 3B who could be defined as defensive specialists, then you have the makings of a bad offense.

Iguchi looks like he's in slow-motion out there. If this game gets out of hand, Ozzie needs to get Everett out of RF before he hurts himself or someone else.

QUOTE(WinninUgly @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 09:03 PM) Bring in Adkins! How could Garcia get the win then?

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 09:02 PM) If Garcia gives up anymore runs, it's Adkins time He'll be in for 6 innings no matter what. Where have you been all season?

This is very comical when you think about it. Thankfully we won the last two games.

According to the Mariners broadcast, the reason Sexson left because of blurred vision was that he couldn't believe this Sox team he saw on the field was in first place.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:58 PM) Why's that? Because he left the game early, and there was no reason given at the time. However, they just said it had to do with blurred vision.

How long before a thread pops up in the trade winds about the Sox possibly getting Sexson?

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:54 PM) Talk about knee jerk But I forgot his entire BA is bloopers Trust me, it's not knee jerk. Him and Uribe have been extremely, extremely disappointing this season. I just couldn't believe how pumped up his reputation got because of the New York series. He's a very good outfielder...but Torii Hunter, he's not. His throwing arm has been dismal all season.

QUOTE(Sox Hustler @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:54 PM) Atleast the Indians lost yesterday and we won. This game SUCKS. Agreed. I'll take a 2-1 road series every time. Especially how close we were to losing the last two games, it's hard to get too upset with things. I just wish we'd go for the juggular in these 3rd games instead of taking our foot off of the accelerator.

I love Sunday lineups. Good throw by the most overrated Sox player in recent memory.

Garcia must thinks he performing for the PBA Tour, and not the majors today.

QUOTE(Sox Hustler @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:50 PM) Jphat and Fathom, you two are two totally different types of posters. You guys need to set aside your differences and views and enjoy the damn games. Your both White Sox fans whats the big deal damn. Look what I just told him. He tries to start s*** all the time, and I'm just not going to respond to him again. I agree, no one wants to hear it every game.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:50 PM) we're playing awful, awful fundamental baseball today on the defensive side of the game. has garcia dropped out of the playoff rotation in anyone else's mind as well? I've said it all year. Whenever we seem to play 2 or 3 benchers in the same game, our fundamentals are awful in that game. Maybe it's just the mentality, but there's been an obvious drop-off.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:47 PM) How am I an Ozzie apologist? His team leads the AL by 6.5 games at the end of August without a very good offense, which means our pitching is doing the job in the order that he puts them in that you always complain about. What exactly am I apologizing for. I'm just pointing out how foolish you look by continually getting after Ozzie when he is right most of the time. Just cause you win the game, it doesn't mean the manager is right. I'm going to stop discussing this, as it's all revisionist theory. You can go on any board for any team, and if you look at the in-game thread after the game, you'll find a lot of posts that can be criticized.

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:46 PM) You're gonna have to ask Ozzie about that one. There has to be a method to his "madness"... There have been times where posters have complained only to learn about a minor injury that kept someone out of the game afterwards. That's what usually keeps me from second-guessing. And that's why I asked if anyone had heard something about any injury.

Haha, Everett

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:42 PM) Wish it was the indians... No kidding. Blue Jays hit into a lot of bad luck today, as they were all over Westbrook.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:40 PM) You say the same things over and over and over again though. And you are almost always wrong. Its just funny. THats all. I wish everyone would go look at my post. You criticized people for complaining that Contreras was left in too long, and that Cotts should have stayed in instead of Jenks. Were we wrong? Since you seem to be an Ozzie apologist, how do you explain not playing Dye today?

Twins lost 2-1.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:36 PM) Haha. I love game threads. It's a shame that not everyone got to see your post after the game yesterday. It's really easy to go back and critique posts after the game, isn't it? I still want to know how many of us posters were wrong in wanting Contreras out of the game prior to the 8th?
