Mercy.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 12:08 PM) If we still have the big lead I'd prefer to get Boone/Thornton/Politte in, instead of using Brandon. True. If it's still ike this I'm all for it.

Good AB

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 12:06 PM) Of course not. He should be fine. Robin Ventura had rough spots and starts at points in his career, too. It happens to the best of them. Yah, almsot every player on our team (except maybe Thome) is going to go through a 2-25/3-30 type slide this year. Only it won't look as bad because there are so many hits already mixed in. Pods is awful right now, but he won't be nearly this bad all year.

Get Garland through 5+ and let Bmac come in for a couple.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 11:55 AM) Who was worried about the Sox facing rookie pitchers?? http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=48751

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 11:55 AM) He's got good stuff, but I think Velander has been a bit over-advertised. His fastball looks pretty straight, and he appears to have trouble locating it. He's got an excellent future, but what I saw today, not all that impressive. I watched him on Saturday and he was pretty awesome. Just a rookie type outing. He has the stuff, now he'll look to find that consistency, like most rooks.

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 11:54 AM) Crede has been better than that .230 average lets on Some real big hits. Really won two games (last in KC, First in Det)

Was it SSirish that said it? This is the perfect guy for us to face.

Poor Granderson has such a terrible arm.

Stupid bounce back to the catcher.

Oakland's awesome pitching staff is getting lit up by the juggernaut offense that is the Twins.

QUOTE(Finkelstein @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 11:31 AM) I really wish that he would at least try to see a couple of pitches. He's tried. ANd he gets 0-1, 0-2, 1-2 fairly quickly. Then he has no chance. I don't mind him swinging at a first pitch fastball.

OK inning all things considered. Lets score some more. Time for 7-8-9-1 to do something.

Good piece of woodwork. If somebody is due against us after last year, it is Dmitri Young.

Dammit AJ. Don't get so lazy on those things. led to a run.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 11:17 AM) We are slumping, as a team I believe we are hitting under 200. .230, which considering what the middle 4 or 5 are doing, shows just how terrible 7-8-9-1 have been.

WTF was that AJ?

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 11:15 AM) Are pitchers have been getting the s*** beat out of them. haha. literally!

Gooch and Thome are locked in!

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 11, 2006 -> 11:23 PM) I think it should be a bannable offense to have Liriano in your avy. seriously. any division rival

QUOTE(Felix @ Apr 12, 2006 -> 04:10 PM) I'm rather certain no one is saying to give up on him. The only reason I was commenting on Jenks was because jphat seems to think that he is having a great year because he hasn't blown a save yet, which is far from being the truth. Where did I say that? I said he's perfect on the year. Which he is. He's done the job all four times that he has been called upon. And for teh most part he's ahd a really good year. Just one bad pitch to Shelton. The other run was a bomb by Reggie Sanders on a good pitch. Don't turn into jabroni and start putting words into people's mouths. It's embarassing.

How bout some love for Jose too. He was awesome. Made one of the better hitting teams so far look foolish!

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 12, 2006 -> 01:37 PM) We won....end of story. It's just too bad we can't get people on base for Thome. At least Iguchi's getting on. 2nd best OBP on the team. He looks really good at the plate.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 12, 2006 -> 01:36 PM) He had a 3 run lead. If that's too much pressure, which I don't think it is, they have room for him in Charlotte. I'm pretty sure Bobby has a pretty good idea what pressure is.
