QUOTE (tommy @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 10:02 PM) Are you joking? Nothing like breathing life into a dead organization. Lets beat them to crap and get rid of them.

QUOTE (G&T @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 09:59 PM) Peralta with a missile to left. 9-6. This is an awful inning. Crede costs us burning Thornton in this game.

QUOTE (tommy @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 09:54 PM) What the heck Joe. He needs to fix this lazy throw s***. These mess ups on routine balls are not what you should expect from a guy who hangs his hat on fielding.

Grady Sizemore just tied a major league record. He recorded all 3 outs in the inning. Lets go to the ninth and hold them

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 09:19 PM) Oberman on Republicans is as objective as Coulter is on democrats.

QUOTE (G&T @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 09:16 PM) Crede boots an easy grounder. Dove for no reason. He has made some great plays, and then has messed up some of the easier plays.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 08:04 PM) I wasn't at all concerned with the 4 runs because he was pitching to contact. When you do that, you have a shot at giving up a few more. Swisher with another bomb (dead center too!!!) and we got to see that OC and Swish have a little captain in him. I think tonight he had one of his best curveballs of the year. He had the big bender, but he had that nice tight one that he could throw for strikes. When he can drop 2 types of curves plus the rest of his stuff, 10ks is on its way.

My favorite part of the Nick Swisher home run ritual. Is when someone brings down a poster of Nick that he can bash arms with.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 07:55 PM) Tough play, but he usually makes that catch. Floyd hasn't pitched bad, but he's clearly pitching to contact (which is smart given the lead). Gotta get through it right now because we are letting the Tribe back into this. Tonight Gavins big hook has been there. If he can get that back on track, that means more in the long run than the 4 he gave up tonight. The key to Gavin is getting him through this season, and keep progressing. This kid has the stuff to be a top of the rotation starter. We just have to keep him moving foward. 10ks tonight is a nice touch.

QUOTE (tommy @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 08:35 PM) Min 2-1 Detroit.. It would be better if Tigers won.. No, I would rather bury the Tigers and shutdown their hope. They have deep pockets owner who wants to win now. Money is no object. Floyds 3-2 curveball like that, its not fair.

That moron cost the sox a run.

Attention fans, keep your grubby hands off of the ball when its in place. Thank you.

Ben Francisco with a nice single, and then gets stupid on the basepaths. Wedge is loving that I am sure.

Floyds curve looks nasty tonight.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 07:32 PM) Damn those rally killers! Especially two of the hottest hitters in the AL! Damn them! God forbid I think that 2 guys who are hitting so well should make contact against Sowers. I am sure if you polled both of them they would be upset as well.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 30, 2008 -> 07:31 PM) Nothing like strikeouts in the middle of the order with men on to kill a rally. 2 men on, with a dude with a 6 ERA on the mound and we get back to back strikeouts. We need a better job than that. Thome picks up Carlos and Dye there. 3-1 good guys.

Happy Birthday Keith.

Welcome to the Clinton model. Attacks by surrogates. The swiftboating of McCain continues.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 07:47 PM) Fields can do what Crede does (HRs and errors) for a lot cheaper next year. I dont want to hear from anyone about how many errors Fields would give up, because Crede is doing the same thing.

Ozzie is trying to make sense of how the devil can hit the ball that far.

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 07:09 PM) pretend it's still 0-0 mark Thats his run support, make it stick.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 07:01 PM) Someone said we're facing 5 lefties in this upcoming week, including 2 of the best in baseball in Lee/C.C. They will bomb the crap out of Lee. He is a guy who tries to pound in, and doesnt have a plus fastball. He feeds in our team. CC is another animal all together.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 06:58 PM) Surprising development, gang: Sox mystified by soft-tossing lefty. The popup patrol is in to take control. The fact that Crede cant even make contact is sickening. Bringing up Fields when he gets healthy, just to start against lefties should give us a few more wins.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 06:52 PM) Mark is struggling, but he doesn't look that bad out there. Lots of base runners, but he isn't being hit hard, just some walks. Ramirez at SS, and Beckham at 2nd base with Swish is going to be a nice core with Quentin for a long time guys.
