QUOTE (Real @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 12:02 PM) Good thing we're resting our regulars all on the same day Resting only 2.

QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 11:58 AM) I hope you're kidding ... .242 bag of suck, CQ, who has no swing right now, got lucky yesterday, in the 3 hole (zero hits, zero quality at-bats); Teahen in the 5-hole, Rios not in the line-up when PK is out, Mark Kotsay in a White Sox uniform. Anything else you're curious about? I'd call a walk a quality AB. Teahans been hitting well since his return and L/R matchup. Jones has done well in Rios absence. Kotsay has 2 hits. Anything else?

Can the Sox continue the magic on the road ? Really have to . Sure can't count on KC .

QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 11:26 AM) Keep smoking what you're smoking Maybe you can give me your point of view on whats wrong with the lineup instead ?

QUOTE (mcgrad70 @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 11:15 AM) Kelly's having a career day at the plate and on the field. E-jax was due for one of these. And this line-up the Sox fielded today is not going to help either. They'll have plenty of rest after this month. I got no problem with the lineup. Just about everyone already has a hit.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 11:15 AM) i knew jackson sucking today was some way some how, going to be put on ozzie lol everything that goes wrong comes back to ozzie,never fails I can't say it's on Ozzie . The bullpen was really in dire straits at the time. Ozzie hardly had a choice but to keep pitching Edwin. We can't all say with 100% accuracy that you can relate his last outing to this one.

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 11:11 AM) ugh. was he legitimately out? Hard to say. Too much dust when Kotsay slid . No way to see it clearly. Kotsays' feet beat the ball home. Just a matter of if they actually touched the plate before the tag because of the block of the plate.

I'm sick of Kelly hitting Jackson like he owns him.

Damn. Kotsay gunned down at home on a close play on the Vizquel single to end the inning.

Way to go Juan !! 3-2 Sox .

Fear the beard.

Jones has been an OBP machine lately.

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 10:53 AM) manny > ichiro!! EDIT: That was green, but not snarkily so Probably could be if he really wanted to hit with as little power as Ichiro does.

Teahen put a good swing on that one.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 10:42 AM) It's called going with the pitch I believe and besides Manny is still getting that timing down. I just hope when he breask out of it for power we get it in a game we really need it and not as part of some blow out Going with the pitch is more like what Beckham does. Hit's outside pitches to right and pulls inside pitches. Manny took an inside pitch to right. Have to get the hands out in front open your hips a bit and let the bat head trail. Much harder to do and Manny's been making it look easy.

Ejax looks a lot better this inning . Slider biting more.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 10:24 AM) I love Manny and all, but it's kinda funny how he's just a slap hitter to right field these days. I loved the way Manny hit. Beautiful inside out swing is not slap hitting. It's him realizing his timing is not where it should be right now and being smart about it.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 09:50 AM) The defense takes a hit. That I can agree with. Teahen

Alexei , Rios and PK all out. PK with the back problem. Alexei and Rios played both games of the double header . I sure don't mind the changes today. Even winning in Boston the Sox offense hasn't looked sharp. Jones has looked like a better hitter lately. I remember reading something lately about Jones trying to replicate his stance when he was hit 50 HR's for Atlanta per Walker's suggestion. Seems like ever since I read that he's been hitting more for average. Q 3rd is fun to see as is Manny 4th. Still prefer Beckham not 9th. Last 45 or so games he's been one of the best hitters so why not try to get him a few more AB's ?

Just keep winning. Just keep winning. Just keep winning winning winning.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 08:43 AM) Has Ozzie ever started him at 1st during his first call up? Don't remember if he started but I remember him playing 1st with the Sox.

QUOTE (scenario @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 08:39 AM) Charlotte's last game is today, so Viciedo will be another option for 1B soon. He's finishing the season down there on a strong note... gotten hits in 8 of his last 10 games (.302), including 4 multi-hit games, and 3 homeruns. Nice to see I love that kid. But it's more important to know if he had any walks.

Just keep winning. Just keep winning. Just keep winning winning winning.

I thought that was a foul tip for the K . Glad he got hit .

QUOTE (WinorDie88 @ Sep 5, 2010 -> 01:23 PM) Now we put in a pinch runner? I'm confused. Better now than never.
