QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 04:57 AM) Oh well. We're still 11 games up and our first 4 game losing streak comes in mid August. And the Twins have a ton of momentum, while our offense continues to absolutely struggle. I actually admire your optimism, but this Sox ship is sinking very, very slowly. The holes in the boat have opened up, and we need to do something to plug the holes.

Adkins has done nothing this season to deserve to be on the MLB roster. I understand wanting to have a long reliever on the team, but you don't need someone on the roster who can't even get AAA hitters out.

Why the f*** wasn't Crede guarding the line there? Every pitch Adkins throws has been inside, yet we're not protecting the line? f*** that, that's terrible baseball.

Adkins was more worried about the runner than he was the hitter.

He looked like he was out there. Thankfully, Adkins made a good throw to 2nd base.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 04:44 AM) You would think if they haven't used Nathan by now they would go to Mulholland first. Who knows though. They're saving Nathan for a save opportunity.

This game is over. I'll will be absolutely stunned if we win.

Our offense is absolutely brutal. You have to love the likely pitching match-up now: Adkins vs Nathan.

QUOTE(wsox08 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 04:41 AM) what the hell? you couldnt even tell from the angles... You could hear it on the original play. I was hoping it hit AJP, but when he didn't complain about being hit, it was obvious.

Why couldn't Rowand have pulled that?

Hawk, you're a f***ing tool!

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 04:40 AM) wow that is some serious bulls*** right there It was the right call.

That's a bad break for AJP

I'm hoping for a wild pitch and then a flare. Just no DP, Rowand can handle the lefty.

Chances of DP here are quite high.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 04:37 AM) Man with Everett not on there we don't have a shot. (please be a jinx) I've been trying for the jinx for 6 innings now.

Where would he play?

Where's PK when we need a solo homer?

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 04:35 AM) Well. The good thing is Marte, Cotts, and pOlitte will all be able to go tomorrow. Jenks should be able to go in September.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 04:35 AM) Carl's going yard right here. ok, i'm just saying that because he's my PTC If they leave Romero in, Rowand's our best chance for the long ball.

Now that I can look back on that inning, I'm surprised Morneau's ball didn't leave the park. With his power, those type of towering fly balls are usually gone.

f*** YEAH!! Great job Jenks. Now take him out Ozzie!

please walk the Sox killer

Great pitches by Jenks! Can we just walk Ford instead of put up with a flare or a swinging bunt?

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 04:28 AM) Well this could be the end. I love Rowand's effort though. I'm sorry, but that play needs to be made by Rowand. That play was easier, on scale, with the play Cuddyer made earlier.
