These have been like playoff games.

There's the lead I wanted, now hang onto it.

Wow thanx Laz Diaz and Upton.

Wheeler.

That works. Time for Alexei to be the man.

Cmon Becks, lil 2 out bingo !

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 07:02 PM) We are down. Carrasco usually pitches when we are close but losing. Just seems odd when Dotel hasn't pitched in about 5 days.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 07:01 PM) quentin was lookin for it, got it and missed it....he's getting close to being back though i think If you count his time in the minors he's got like a 10 game hitting streak.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 06:56 PM) I hope so, but probably saving Dotel to close if we get the lead. Could be . I'd just like to see us get the lead and get to the 9th with it .

Seeing Carrasco here makes me think Dotel will be traded.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 06:43 PM) Not a fan of the grammar police but yea that was a f*** up, Gage/BearSox style. I was the spelling police.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 06:40 PM) I would like to see Beckham in the 2 hole. Beckham with a steady diet of fastballs could be deadly. I agree, against the better teams Beckham can't bat 9th and once CQ starts hitting for power again move him up too.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 06:40 PM) I still thought he coulda been brought up instead of trading Brandon Allen for Tony Pena, but hopefully Pena can harnish his stuff. Harness , seriesly.

When Freddie's ready we have 4 #5's + CR, Torres, Bartolo . Might have a different looking bullpen by the trade dealine. Nice HR Pods.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 22, 2009 -> 06:19 PM) Carlos Torres could not have impressed me more to this point. And I'm not talking about his stuff but he seems like he's got it together mentally on the mound, which most of the guys we call up midseason(pitchers wise) never, ever seemed to have. And I'm calling a TCQ homer this inning. Book it. Thanks I just lost a weeks salary

Have to chime in with the praise of MB. He wins , has fun and doesn't take himself too seriously, plus that little thing that happened in 2005.

Against these good teams gotta move Beckhamn and Quentin up in the order.

QUOTE (ChiSox420* @ Jul 19, 2009 -> 04:54 PM) Wrigley Field... BOOOOO Just there for the Rascal Flatts concert not a Cubs game.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 07:35 PM) and your point? Hoping it'll be painful enough to affect his pitching. I thought it was obvious.

AJ hit Howell in his pitching elbow.

A 2-fer Longoria and the ump.

Can we say rack em up once more ?

Clayton showed me some big game qualities tonight.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 21, 2009 -> 07:14 PM) Ozzie wanted to avoid Crawford and Pena off the bench Astute.

Ozzies says f*** the bullpen and f*** the pitch count.
