I thought the Cubs were playing bad... hell even the nationals were playing bad.. and I thaught the Pirates were the s***tiest team.. this team is poethetic in comparison to them.
Maybe some trades will happen by Mondays deadline

According to Gameday, Jenks wasn't getting above 92mph and his offspeed pitches were around 87-88.
Not much difference there.
That's what I was thinking too. No reason to take out areguably our best relief pitcher for a gas can and a bookiof matches

here comes the complimentary 2 runs off Nathan, to fall short by 1
You are too kind to our offesne. It's more like 1-2-3 and good night

was there any doubt when mauer stole 2nd that cuddyer would drive him in?
Absolutey not-you could see it coming
QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Sep 1, 2009 -> 02:30 AM)
i know this gets asked every time we play the twins, but have we ever come back against Nathan?
I think we did two or three yeasr ago once---really!

You already did.
And that's quite the accusation to even be insinuating.
The accusation of "gambling" is out of line and in extremely poor taste
QUOTE (whitesoxmanager @ Sep 1, 2009 -> 02:17 AM)
here is my quote...
"i will be the first to state that gambling might have a lot more to do with this teams overall performance than anyone can ever imagine." you draw whatever conclusion you want from it.
lets just say this...if we ever have a beer together i will blow your mind away with things you never considered. and i am not the only fan from chicago to bring these things up. but i am definitely not stupid enough to bring it to any forum. hell no.
Gambling is illegal unless you are liivng in 1919 time
I see the Twins get two homers off Gavin which has been his achilles heel.Where did our power hiters go? I am surprised that Thome got anything out of the infield

Per Marc Silverman's Facebook
Marc Silverman According to Buster Olney, Sox sent out league wide memo that they're willing to talk trade for most vets by midnight tonight. Dye, Thome, etc.
So be it

Not true. The players and coaches read this board religiously. There is a direct correlation with the tone of this board and the way the team plays. I wish people in here would realize this before it's too late.
If they did read this board the season would have been over a long time ago. Anyway it should go without saying that we (I) am in till the end and then I'll be looking forward to next year
QUOTE (The Critic @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 05:47 PM)
Too bad playing Flowers means sitting down one of the few veterans who's actually hitting.
Maybe AJ can DH when Flowers plays, or maybe Flowers DH's?
That's just it. AJP is not the problem this year. Maybe Flowesr will get a game in or two so AJ can rest and Castro is odd man out
We need somew magic right now lus headed into the Twinkiedome isn't a good thing for a slumping club, but if they get over their phobia it could be a good thing for us
