Lexi is really starting to turn into my favorite.......

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 06:32 PM) I absolutely can't believe that Ozzie put PK, Swisher, and Fields in succession in the order. All three of those guys make hitting seem so difficult. Ramirez should be in between one of them to break up the suckiness. The AS break really came at a s***ty time for Swisher...he was starting to swing the bat pretty well. Then he started dickin' with his stance...

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 06:30 PM) Konerko's act is REALLY growing old. Yup...... So's listening to Blyleven already on Extra Innings.

Konerko could use the same advise.....

QUOTE (striker62704 @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 02:33 PM) Braveheart? Liar. Liar.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 02:13 PM) Boone walked off the mound in Detroit and very clearly looked up and said thank you after his first good outing in awhile. I think he will be fine. Agreed...he just needs one or two good outings. I don't think anything is wrong mechanically...just placement on a few pitches. I also haven't agreed with a few pitches called either...specifically the 0-2 pitch for a hit a few games back.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 27, 2008 -> 08:15 PM) You know, it's amazing we're doing as well as we are with Javy's total lack of performance this year. You tell me before this season that Javy is pitching like this, and I think we're probably in third place. As well as Konerko hitting in the very low 200s....3rd place would seem like a certainty. Javy is pretty frustrating at times...but the pitch I think that frustrates me the most with him is his changeup....thrown at THE WORST possible moments sometime. Seems like everybody and their mom knows it's coming.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 27, 2008 -> 07:13 PM) Winning game one would be nice. It always is nice to win the first game in the other team's park. Did you guys sense a lack of caring in Hawk and DJ today? It was like we won the first two and that was all that mattered. Indeed winning the series is all that ultimately matters, but I thought with the pitching matchup in our favor and our bats alive of late, it was prime sweep time. One at a time, White Sox. Win that opener on Monday! Not sure if it was there with Hawk and DJ...but sometimes it seems to be the MO for this team when they win the first two games of a series the past few years. This team should have CRUSHED Miner...and the 9th inning was terrible ABs. Like many said...I'm happy taking 2 of 3 though. I'll be happy with a split in Minny...but taking 3 of 4 would be great. Hoping this team comes out with a chip on their shoulder tomorrow and pounds this team into the ground. If Gomez is out too...tough s***skis....

Happy with 2 of 3...but the greedy side of me wanted a sweep. Just VERY disappointed with the last inning with everybody K'ing on ball 4.

Wow...now that was funny. All three batters K on ball 4.

Christ guys...learn the strike zone. Should be 2 on and nobody out.

Shocker....

Big K there. Lookin' at the replay...I'm not blaming AJ because it was a complete s*** pitch...but he really didn't get out and down (with his glove down) to smother it. Either way....HUGE K!!!!!!!!!!! Let's get some more runs!!!!!!!

I think I'd give up baseball if I was a Pirates fan. Geez-us...they're like the Wal-Mart of MLB come deadline time. It's a shame too...beautiful park, pretty decent fan base... Same s*** with them every year.

As long as Dotel and Jenks stay healthy at this point to hold down the fort...setup by committe is ok with my...as long as it isn't Masset.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 25, 2008 -> 07:55 PM) Biggest win of the year. Period. Not gonna argue....HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE WIN!!!!! This team is so goddamn unique. It'll piss you off to no end for a string of 5 games...then just do s*** to make you shake your head and go...DAMN!

HOLY s*** was that a hammer!!!!!!!

That's about the most emotion I've ever seen from JD.

I just wet myself.........GODDAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE (Sox It To Em @ Jul 25, 2008 -> 07:41 PM) Old Man Jones in. I honestly don't see how this guy succeeds...

QUOTE (tommy @ Jul 25, 2008 -> 07:40 PM) Bottom of the order. top

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jul 25, 2008 -> 07:36 PM) Who would you like him to run out there? Dotel for 2 innings and have him be unavailable and have Masset go out there with a lead tomorrow? The circumstances suck, but thats what we have right now. Tomorrow is another day. I wouldn't have worried about it. You win 'em one game at a time (credit: Crash Davis). Masset hasn't pitched worth a s*** for the past few weeks and shouldn't be used unless it's long relief IMO. So he puts Boone in for one batter. Granted...Boone hasn't lit it up or anything lately...but I sure as hell would rather have him out there instead of Masset.

Anybody else hear this asswipe whistling?

Goddammit Ozzie...wtf would you throw Masset out there?

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 25, 2008 -> 07:27 PM) Masset shouldn't be on a big league roster. He has no options left I believe.......
