I go to the fridge and get me another beer ... I have a different park where I watch the game

Gavin Floyd must pitch good from the git go. If so we win no question

let us not panic here brethern

The sox shouldn't and don't play dirty baseball. They just need to go out there and keep busting their behinds and WIN the next two

Thome's homer was like a dagger through the heart, but as long as it wasn't the silver bullet we can heal up and go for it tonite

Bobby Jenks will be back Wed probably, but it seems when things go bad they really go bad. Every relief pitcher we have used to close has discovered a way to give up a homer to lose the game. I am not sure I would call it a melt down but obviously it is ugly. Our offense tries to come back but how many bases loaded or runner in scoring position with less than 2 outs have they failed in recently? We have chances to really break open a game an can''t deliver only to see our bullpen blow another one. That is the obvious and all I can say is there is still time left to turn it around and I don't see any crying from the players, which is good.

It was like a dagger through the heart

We should place our own team on a pedestal for a change

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 17, 2010 -> 04:47 PM) You don't fire a guy for being in the pennant race. My thoughts too

Waiver issues will become fodder for the media until Sept 1st I am guessing

I for one don't think I know more than a major league manager and his coaching staff. The Sox have been successful and the fact we are in a losing streak seems to have clouded all that has gone right for some reason.

Aug 11 BIL .500 4 1 2 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 .600 .750 1.350 Andy played vrs Billings on August 11th and did the above. He is hitting .344 right now for ther season

The Twins will hit a speed bump too and hopefully we run over them this week. The Sox are a good team and we got some good pitching over the weekend except for Sunday, but the offesne showed it weasn't going to just roll over. We still have a long ways to go in this season and we have proven we can come back from quite a far piece down in the standings.

we can rebound

Love the enthusiasm. I am all tingly right now waiitng for Tuesday. Now let's bash ESPN and MLB Network cause they aren't carrying any oif the Sox-Twinkies games this week

We are a good team and by golly we are good enough to win and we should all love each other .. not that way even though there isn't anything wong with that Come on lighten up folks-it's only August and we have shown we can rebound. It's just one of those slumps every team goes through. It's a good thing we weren't 3 games out last Friday when the Tigers came to town

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 16, 2010 -> 02:11 AM) What about Putz? If he's not hurt, he'll probably be closing if we somehow have a lead in the ninth. Putz has pride as all our guys do and he will be ready. He and Thornton should be rested enough with Monday off

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 10:40 PM) We have a 3 game series upcoming with the Twins. We'll be back on top the division Thursday around 10pm. Who with me? There is no doubt we can do it if the players step up. We should have great pitching lined up and that is what really counts

well they went down a flailing and screaming and kicking. Hope we can rebound against Minny and take all three

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 15, 2010 -> 09:30 PM) Ha, completely agree bomb. Guarantee there's a bunch of "I told you so" going around about Garcia. Yes, but they did get him off the hook and the pren blew it

Bottom of the 9th 13-8 Tigers. It's rally time folks!
