QUOTE(daa84 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 10:10 PM) joe mauer vs. lefthanded pitchers: .366 BA, .421 OBP Michael Cuddyer vs. Right handed pitchers: .243 BA, .339 OBP cotts did his job by getting the 2 outs....the right move was to get brandon or riske to face cuddyer Ozzie let Cotts pitch to a guy that is 2-2 with 2 dongs against him over the weekend.

If Ozzie pulled this stuff on his xbox, the vibration controller would of shook feverishly to let him know its not a good idea.

I would like to pray for Ozzie and hope he overcomes his bouts with insanity. Only a fool or someone insane starts Javy in the 7th after he gave up the back to back dongs and lost the lead before you could blink. Heres comes the pink fuzzy bunny Rongey to tell us everything is all right.

Thank you Ozzie for letting Javy get raped in the 7th inning. But you proved to everyone he can pitch into the 7th inning. Thanks for your gut. Brian now brings us within 3.

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:57 PM) are you saying Contreras can't outpitch Santana? refuse to believe that. lol

Pulled out to the 2nd baseman.

1 pulled out to the SS.

Now if we dont score against Kyle Lohse someone should be sacrificed immediately. He is stinky poo.

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:52 PM) we will beat Santana. we will beat Santana we will beat Santana. say it. think it. believe it. live it. I am going with a line of 10 strikeouts, 3 hits, one solo homer for the sox and a 3-1 loss.

QUOTE(GreatScott82 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:51 PM) 7.5 games back. 1.5 games up in the WC?!? Santana going tommorow?!? WoW We might be in 3rd place VERY SOON! And we will get some silly Ozzieifed lineup.

Nice throw pods. I think your wife has a better arm. Soriano please.

We are looking at our 4th consecutive series loss after Santana works us over tomorrow. Now bmac comes out there. Ozzie is on drugs. bmac should of been there in the 6th.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:36 PM) "Vazquez can build on this start after looking great for the first 5 innings..." I think they looked great, and just came up a bit short today. Just tip your cap to a shutdown pitching staff, we have run into a lot of those lately. But I dont believe this will last too long, or at least I hope it wont. Well lets go to our Dodge drive of the game, it goes to Joe Mauer who hit a cookie over the center field stands. Ozzie has announced that Dye, Konkero and Thome wont be in the lineup tomorrow. Good for him, we need them rested so we can battle the royals soon.

Its funny that any pitcher who can spot a fastball away, and has a change or curve will absolutely shut this team down. I am surprised that any team throws a fastball in on us. All fastballs in must be mistake pitches. You can 4 hit this team with the greatest of ease. Now make sure your SS and 3rd baseman are ready for all of the nice 2 hop ground balls. And also make sure your 2nd baseman is ready for all of the sky high popups.

Maybe about August 15th or so our offense will awaken from their annual mid summer slumber. We will be 8 games out of the wildcard by then.

The percentage of outs that have been pulled or popped up tonight. 90%

Pauly is kind of clueless watching a fastball coming down the middle. This loss is on our 5th starter Cupcake and our manager who doesnt realize that cupcake is done by the 6th.

Ozzie is doing his best Tony Pena impersonation. Bullpen and pitching managing by the magic 8 ball. Should I take Javier out...... probably not. Well the 8 balls says no, so Javy stays in. Smash of the bat, home run. Lets shake it again, should I take him out now.. Outlook cloudy No, lets see if he can pitch out of it, 4 runs later. Maybe its time to get Cotts up.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:19 PM) So adding Soriano will spark Vazquez to stop spiffting his pants in the 6th inning? Will it spark Mark Buehrle to stop pitching like Sidney Ponson? Will it spark Freddy Garcia (although he pitched very well his last start) to start throwing hard and atleast attempting to hold base runners? Who would've thought that Jon Garland would be the one guy we can count on as far as the rotation goes at the moment. How about common sense will finally reach our manager. Doesnt his stat people, scouts and coaches let him know. Hey ozzie get the pen ready, its the 6th inning. And Vaz is starting to convuse on the mound.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:16 PM) I know this. I was just pointing out that it's not like we could trade Javy and insert Brandon into the rotation in a couple days. We piggy back him with someone else. He gets 4 innings, then some other reliever gets 2 and then to the back of the pen. Then his next start he goes 5, then 6 and then he is worth more than vazquez.

QUOTE(rudylaw @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:14 PM) I know Dye deserves a day off but do we need to give our best players days off vs division rivals in big games. You do not see Detroit or Minnesota resting there guys vs us do you? Dont worry we will be at full strenght for the mighty Royals.

Well everyone including the media has been harping on the fact that the 3rd time through the lineup, Vazquez gets rocked. With that knowledge in hand, he continues to march him out over and over and over after the 6th inning. And the same broken record of disaster happens. Its a pattern. To everyone but to Ozzie. Maybe he needs some tums to get his gut back on the right track, because common sense is killing him. We were on a way to a win, and then poof Vazimplosion.

Pods looks at another 3rd strike. Wish it was soriano up there, instead of Mr. Dergan.

DJ is now saying we are just swinging for the fences. Maybe he can write it on a piece of paper and send it down to our coaching staff. That and when the clock strikes 6 innings, have your bullpen ready to go.

QUOTE(atrain081 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:07 PM) Javy's line: 6.0 IP, 8 H, 5 ER looks familiar 7 1/2 out after tonight. And this is why we need Soriano. And this is why we need to get rid of this goof, and get bmac in the rotation. He can give up 5 runs, and wont cost us an arm and a leg.
