SWEENEY, LEADOFF HOMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

closed door meeting before the game. mariners winning in the 10th...and if i hear about kason gabbard again im going to vomit

Kyle Snyder. seriously guys, lets remember that we should score at least 6 runs off this guy

Along with left-hander Scott Thornton, who was added in a deal at the end of spring training, MacDougal (1-1, 1.37 ERA in 19 2/3 innings) has solidified a bullpen that is missing Cliff Politte, Dustin Hermanson, Luis Vizcaino and Damaso Marte since the World Series.

they have quit

nothing like giving up 3 hits and losing. ozzies postgame: "WHO CARES IF WE LOSE; JAVY PITCH GOOD"

i cant believe the marlins are more fun to watch than the white sox right now

this game shows you why javy is better than freddy. at least javy has the potential to throw well, flamethrower freddy has lost even that.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 06:52 PM) I make a point not to bet on the Sox, but If I lose you can put whatever you want up as my avy or sig and if I win I can do the same (with them lasting for a week). DEAL!!! this is exciting!

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 06:51 PM) Good news guys and gals....I just got a nice feeling, we are going to come back and win this game. Mark my words on that. Ill bet you 10 dollars right here right now.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 08:24 PM) If only a few Sox players would bring that sort of passion to the game. but our guys are tired.

"I just want to win," he said. "I'll do anything to not let Chicago get into the playoffs. That's all that matters. Obviously, we're still trying to chase Detroit, but you'd almost rather see anybody go in other than Chicago. If I can help us do that, that's the only thing that matters to me."

well, you spelled BELIEVE wrong, but you are going to win the bet.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 06:52 PM) Watching Wilfredo Ledezma pitch tonight is so freakin' frustrating. These situations aren't totally, 100% identical, but they're fairly comparable. Leyland had a starter in Zack Miner who had performed reasonably well for most of the year. He also had another starter in Ledezma who had been bounced between AAA and the majors, and who had performed well at both places. Leyland didn't get all sentimental w/r/t Miner when the decision came to bump Miner out of the rotation and Ledezma in; it was made as soon as it was obvious to everyone that Ledezma was a better option than Miner. In Freddy Garcia, we pretty much know what we're going to get at this point in the season. At best, he can give the team seven innings of two-to-three runs, meaning a good start, but by no means a dominant one. At worst, he gives up close to a run per inning. Basically, you have his August -- one good start, one decent start, and a bunch of mediocre to bad starts. Now, I know that recently Brandon's two recent outings haven't instilled a whole lot of confidence in people. And, to that, I say this: I don't think BMac is going to adjust to pitching in the bullpen. Over the past three months, in outings where McCarthy has pitched two or more innings, he has given up a total of four ER in those appearances. Those appearances, BTW, covered close to 30 innings pitched (I think it's 28 right on the button). And don't tell me that McCarthy isn't stretched out, either. I know that if McCarthy were to take Garcia's next scheduled start, he could give the team at least four-to-six innings. After that, you play the matchups and use Haeger/Logan/Riske/Cotts to get you to the seventh. watching ledezma makes me really think that thornton could be a starter. ledezma is really only a 1 pitch pitcher (when he does throw that curve, vlad hits it hard).
