QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 27, 2006 -> 05:36 PM) Brandon could sure use another pitch. 3.5 games out of first and counting.

f***ing pathetic. You have a f***ing lefty that hurts you. You have a lefty who is hot, who throws in the upper 90s. Crede is our only hope against f***ing BJ Ryan.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 27, 2006 -> 05:33 PM) I am amazed that Ozzie goes with BMAC vs the tough lefty. He does this here, when it makes sense to go with Thornton. But then boone logans it up, because he doesnt want a righty to face a lefty.

This f***ing ump crew is just wrong.

Just f***ing walk Rios. Make someone else beat you.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ May 27, 2006 -> 05:30 PM) Ri-ficking-diculous non strike 3 called. Seriously. Right down the God damn plate. Angel Hernandez, what an ump.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 27, 2006 -> 05:28 PM) If they score here luckily we have our 7-8-9 hitters in the 9th. Over/Under on number of pitches Uribe sees in his AB. I go with 2.

Hill and his .245 BA singles to lead off the inning.

Now we are mortal again, no more Jose.

Greg Zaun pretty much set up a lawn chair on the outside corner there.

This should be the Counts last inning. Great outing by the big man. Too bad our offense decided to take the day off. We play like s*** in domes.

QUOTE(Ndgt10 @ May 27, 2006 -> 05:09 PM) Since when the f*** did Scott Downs become unhittable? When we took out our 9 irons to approach the ball.

That was a sad AB for gooch.

Stans dad f***s up the call at third.

Someone on our team needs to nut up and get a big hit today. Jannsen has given up at least 4 runs to TB twice, Baltimore twice. The only team he dominated before today was the weak hitting Angels.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 27, 2006 -> 04:58 PM) Didn't Uribe used to be fast? That was a few pounds ago.

Its sad when your game is relied on a hitter batting a buck 97

That was a hard ball to take.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 27, 2006 -> 03:28 PM) I'm not liking the number of pitches per batter so far. Granted it's only been 2 hitters. Jose just needs to get a groove going. Once he gets a feel for his forkball, he becomes very very hard to hit. Then people start to chase it.

QUOTE(Ndgt10 @ May 27, 2006 -> 03:26 PM) Sometimes, a player just feels to comfortable at the plate (Rios). He needs some inside chin music heat to make him think a bit. Well its remarkable how much more sucessfull an AB is for a pitcher when the pitcher gets ahead of a hitter and then goes for the K. As opposed to gettting to 2 strikes then running it full. 2 batters, 2 full counts. Stop nibbling.

Hawk is going down on the Jays lineup. And then a few minutes before, he started the "they must of knew what was coming s***" on why they rocked Garcia and Politte. He needs to get with one story and go with it.

Hopefully our hitters adjust. The Jays are parking on the outside corner with our righties. Just setup there, and hit the mit. They got the scouting report.

QUOTE(brijames @ May 27, 2006 -> 12:25 PM) Living here in MI I get to see the Tigers a lot, which really sucks, but they look to be having the same kind of year the ChiSox had last year. They have had the hitting but now their starting staff is putting it all together. They are playing with so much confidence right now. Every break seems to be going their way. Leyland has really changed the attitude of the team. Other than the Sox so far they are beating the crap out of their Central Division foes like the Sox did last year. Someone has to start slowing them down a little or before you know it they are gonna have a huge lead with no looking back. 2.5 games ahead, you can put down the f***ing white flag its May.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 26, 2006 -> 08:49 PM) Its going to be a little harder for KW to come up with a replacement now than it would have been this offseason, when even I, a guy who gets ripped constantly on this board for not knowing anything, could see Politte wasn't going to be aces this season. Politte not being last year is one thing. Politte in the 7 ERA range is not good. I still want someone to explain how one of our starting pitchers loses a few mph on his fastball, and nothing is said about it. We just hear from ST on how Freddy is now a control pitcher and thats that. Freddy is not a control pitcher, he has a hard time hitting his spots. So if he has problems now hitting his spots and he gets behind, he cannot blow away anyone anymore. So now people crush his weak ass fastball when they sit on it.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 26, 2006 -> 08:44 PM) DJ needs to quit praising Politte. He's not preaching to Cubs fans. Sox fans know what's going on. The funny thing is when a crappy pitcher toes the rubber at the cell, they show his 2005 stats and his 2005 stats only on the jumbotron. Cliff Politte was good last year, this year he uhhh, well last year he helped us. Shingo was good for us one year, then we ditched him. We ditched Koch after he blew. Lets not hold on to garbage for sentimental reasons ie: Mike Jackson pitching in a meaningful games in a playoff race because he needs to get some silly record. QUOTE(pcullotta @ May 26, 2006 -> 08:46 PM) Felix Diaz = 6.75 ERA Clifford = 6.16 That's scary Clifford is now at 7.13
