QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 07:53 PM) And you want to know one of the main reasons for that? The more subs you have in the game, the more it seems the team fundamentals decreases. Better now than in the playoffs.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 07:49 PM) How so? Both of their bases loaded hits came on good pitches. Paul just missed hitting one out. We had two very close plays at the plate that we just missed, while we had a play that they just made at the plate. We got more than enough breaks though at the beginning of the year, so I'm not worried about it.

Breaks just aren't going our way tonight.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 07:14 PM) Where you at jphat? Trust me, I'm not happy about this or gloating. I'm right here.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 07:08 PM) Yeah, he hasn't had a meltdown in what, 2 starts? When I talk about Contreras having a meltdown, I refer to him losing his mechanics when he's forced to pitch out of the stretch. He gives up a lot of big innings when he loses his release point out of the stretch. He was awesome against Toronto, awesome against NYY, and has been good against Minny so far. He gave up some runs to a good hitting team in Baltimore and has one of our 2 wins against Boston. He's been great this year. A couple "meltdowns".

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 07:05 PM) Contreras meltdown at hand? Your kidding right? See, these are the posts that piss me off from you. He hasn't given up a run in like 11 or 12 or 13 innings. He hasn't had a meltdown in forever.

Ugh. That blows. Only 6 ahead for homefield, which as we saw this weekend, will be critical to have in the playoffs.

Tampa 1-0 in the 9th.

Well. Theres two on bases from the first two in the order.

7-1 Mercy. That was a bomb.

6-1 Tampa.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 07:19 PM) This Thomas video has been the highlight of my night. Not the Drays? Least they are winning for u.

LOL> Poor Pablo. Least he made the catch.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 05:39 PM) Good. I don't like how this game is looking right now Me either. We could come back and crush them, but I've got a weird feeling about this.

4-0 Tampa.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 05:30 PM) Are you implying a Not necessarily, but these guys have won 12 of 14 at home. That's hot, hot, hot.

Bosox are real hot. It might be a rough weekend. Cmon Tampa.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:04 PM) I know, but Schilling is not an automatic closer. Definately not. But pitchers are different in that situation. Gooch couldve killed the ball on another pitch right at someone.

Don't think that would have tied it. He COULD have hit a HR, but you just never know. Schill might have pitched differently with a 1 run lead. DOn't worry ursleves thinking like that.

He's really, really good.

I thought Schilling was going back in the rotation because they put Miller on the DL.

QUOTE(3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:17 PM) You're silly if you think this is over, especially with Remlinger warming last inning I would imagine that Remlinger will be in there only to pitch to AJ. THen Bradford.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:12 PM) TAKE HIM OUT! What is to gain by leaving Buehrle in right now? Hell, bring in Viz! Man. Come to think about it, Viz hasn't pitched in a long long time.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:08 PM) Anyone else following the DRays/Indians game? Hendrickson really is an awful pitcher. Hey look. Another thing we agree on.

QUOTE(Soxpranos @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:06 PM) Nice base hit, gives us the lead. You need to think about the placement of that comma for those who aren't watching the game.
