3E8

Maybe this will fire Pauly up..

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Apr 25, 2005 -> 10:08 PM) I want Marte for the 9th. I really want Jon to finish this out.

Garland's ERA = 1.86

QUOTE(ottawa_sox @ Apr 25, 2005 -> 09:59 PM) Does that mean we are entering the 8th? Yep, top of the 8th. Have you tried using mlb.com's gameday? It's working very well for me tonight.

Um, Jon Garland's ERA is under 2.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Apr 25, 2005 -> 09:43 PM) I wish I woulda saw that. Man I'm happy. Don't worry you will get to see it on whitesox.com tonight.

We have now lead in 20 consecutive games, a new MLB record if I'm not mistaken.

Jon Garland is so sexy right now.

You'd think this pitcher was a Cy Young award winner or something....

Pauly creeps closer to the Mendoza line, waiting for his return to US Cellular so he can hit a home run to get back on track.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 25, 2005 -> 09:22 PM) Do people agree with my belief that Rowand should be batting 3rd against lefties, and Everett should be way down in the lineup? Just wondering if I'm alone on that belief. I agree wholeheartedly. Not even sure I want Everett in the lineup against lefties unless he himself will bat lefty.

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Apr 25, 2005 -> 09:19 PM) We haven't done well with runners in scoring position in a number of games this year. We have sucked when we had runners in scoring position and less than 2 out and with 2 out like Iguchi. I have mixed feeling about Tadpole. I hope he adjusts to MLB pitching soon. He has the second most hits on the team..

QUOTE(shagar69 @ Apr 25, 2005 -> 09:15 PM) god damnit, why can we not touch zito. his ERA is like 7 coming in A few bad innings will do that to you this early in the season.

Makes up for giving up a hit with 0-2 count by enducing the DP. ::tents fingers:: Excellent...

The 4 worst batting averages on our team are in the 3-4-5-6 spots. That isn't good.

Kendall is a pitcher's nightmare. He's so hard to strike out.

Giving Zito an out on one pitch just isn't smart in the 3rd inning.

I didn't like the decision to have Ozuna bunt.

We will have more room for error when it comes to our team OBP if our team ERA stays atop the league leaders, which I think it will barring injuries. I don't think they necessarily both have to rank amongst the best for us to make the playoffs. There are currently more teams in/tied for first place with a team OBP that ranks within 20-30th in the league (4) than there are teams with a OBP that ranks within 1-10th in the league (2).

We need this, our division lead could go quicker than it came, with us at Oakland and Minny heading to KC. Ugh.

Rut roh. Twins get 3 straight hits to start the 3rd.

Can somebody make a wallpaper featuring Gio Gonzalez? I'm not sure if there are any pics of him around to even do it.

Well, we started off 2004 by going 11-1 in 1 run games.

QUOTE(kane0730 @ Apr 25, 2005 -> 08:52 AM) I'd like to break up the Cuban conection, regarless of Jose's health. Hernandez throws lots of pitches, and probably won't pitch past the 6th in many games. And you never know what you're going to get with Jose. I think having these two guys back to back could be somewhat taxing on our bullpen. This is a very good point.
