Last year Thome was 0/3 against Washburn. Fields was 2/3 with 2 Hr's. Dye , Pierzynski and Terrero also homered off him.

Just turned on the Twins/Red Sox game in time to see Coco Crisp and Jed Lowrie go back to back erasing a 2-1 deficit and putting the Carmines ahead 3-2 in the 7th.

JC had all kinds of love for BA in the dugout after the inning was over. He hugged him gently and closely. (Just want to make you BA lover's envious ).

QUOTE (Kalapse @ May 6, 2008 -> 07:41 PM) Guillen replaced Mackowiak with Anderson in the top of the 8th of Buehrle's no hitter last April. Thank you. I wasn't going to argue . I'm too happy with the W.

QUOTE (rangercal @ May 6, 2008 -> 07:32 PM) I blame the f***ing Twins announcers on my MLB extra innings package! They literally said the phrase "no hitter" every 2 seconds! From like the 4th inning on they said it about 500 times.

Finally a W !!!!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 6, 2008 -> 07:27 PM) Damnit! If only Anderson was in... Good point . I mean a players manager puts the best defense out there in the last inning of a no hitter.

Helluva job Gavin !

UNO !

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 6, 2008 -> 07:20 PM) Ok there you got your insurance run. For crying out loud just try to pop up a bunt on the next 2 pitches and let's get Gavy back out there. How ironic that we're begging our hitters to make outs now.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 5, 2008 -> 04:52 PM) Very nice play by Konerko.....OC continues to show how high his baseball IQ is by forgetting how many outs there are. I didn't see OC do anything wrong on that DP.

QUOTE (knightni @ May 5, 2008 -> 03:30 PM) Put one in the lineup, it probably knows the five hole. Isn't that hockey ?

He sounds too much like a Minny Twin for the Sox to use him. Think he can learn to lift and pull ?

1-2-3 nice inning Jose . More runs now !

Stay grindy my friend.

Gonna bust through this inning !

WEB GEM !

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ May 2, 2008 -> 04:04 PM) I changed it. The first address http://www.sapientweb.com/help/ wasn't as noticeable and it wasn't just the picture. When peeps panties started riding up, I switched it. That was chaotic uncontrolled.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxfan1986 @ May 2, 2008 -> 01:13 PM) Why not Broadway? Pitched 8 innings 4/29.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 1, 2008 -> 12:40 PM) I seem to recall arguing with you about this in the offseason. It's good to see we agree on the future of 3B at the very least. Hmmm I don't recall that but it's been so long since the search function worked that I can't even look it up. We agree more than you would think. You're a knowledgeable guy and passionate about the Sox .

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 08:21 AM) I think the Sox should trade Fields and Broadway for Roberts and suck up the cash and work a deal with Crede. Then move Quintin to the two spot and bat Cabrerra 9th until he shows he is the hitter he has been and hit Swisher 3rd. The inconsistency of the middle of this order has been there for two years and I am not certain it will magically reappear. There are way to many at-bats simply given away every night by many hitters in the line-up. Its pretty obvious to everyone in the Sox org. that Crede will be a free agent. Thats what Boras does with his clients. I've seen " trade Fields" so may times its ridiculous. I'm not even that high on the guy. He's K-ing at an alarming rate in the minors and avg at best defensively but we will need him next year .

QUOTE (almagest @ May 1, 2008 -> 07:03 AM) We also don't have to worry about seeing Luis Tererro, Andy Gonzalez, or Alex Cintron either. Pablo's back, Crede's back and playing alright, Thome's not hurt, and Dye has no lingering injury concerns. We've also scored a ton of runs this year, and really only started to tail off within the past 5 or 6 games. Out of 162. Yes, I am a little worried, and yes, it's disgusting watching the "offense" lately, but anyone up in arms about this team's offense needs to take it easy. Actually the Sox are 9-10 since they won 5 in a row.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 1, 2008 -> 07:41 AM) He apparently said something like that yeah, I didn't hear it. But my assumption is that someone is going to the DL or going to AAA from the pitching staff. Though I have no idea who that would be. Its also possible that someone will be traded or released. I just think that carrying 13 pitchers and only Hall, Ozuna and Anderson on the bench, is a bit dangerous. That does leave the bench thin especially with Konerko hurting. Maybe Pk will be DL'ed . Maybe Reinsdorf wasn't talking about a pitcher to take Masset's place temporarily for the Toronto series. Might be more than one move coming.

QUOTE (scenario @ May 1, 2008 -> 06:54 AM) Exactly. Whoever is being brought up is probably only here until Tuesday, not long term. Given that... it makes more sense to bring up a pitcher since our long reliever is coming off a spot start and may have limited availability the next few days. I'd guess Broadway will get a few days in Canada and then be sent back to Charlotte. I'm not sure it'll be Broadway. He pitched 8 innings 4/29. Whisler pitched 7 inn. 4/30. Russell's been in 9 games and pitched 11 innings so doesnt appear to be a long man. Toma Ohka has been starting. Last started 4/26 and had a solid outing and has ML experience so who knows.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ May 1, 2008 -> 06:37 AM) How much you willing to bet? I was thinking the same thing. 1.5 game lead, 3 days 1st day is an off day so we'd have to lose the 1st 2 games against the BJ's while Twinkies win the next 2. I like the odds but now I'm sure the other guy doesnt since I opened my yap.
