QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 11:07 PM) Was he warming up? I think Ozzie just likes to do it raise our blood pressure. No walks! hes in there to get vlad

QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 11:04 PM) At least he got it right defensively. id rather see sweeney in left but macks better than pods

LIDP #2 + 1 for dye

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 10:45 PM) Especially on a 3-2 pitch. I would never, ever throw them a fastball. Thornton should start warming up for Chone. "back in my day if a young pitcher ever threw a 3-2 breaking ball......."

lackeys stuff reminds me so much of the old freddy...i miss him

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 10:30 PM) We nibble like a mouse when we get 2 strikes. i mind it alot less against a free swinging team like the angels...but when they do it against the likes of the yankees it drives me nuts

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 10:26 PM) Big inning for Contreras coming up. If Chone gets on base, he might as well just pitch from the wind-up. I blame you

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 10:13 PM) He hit a go-ahead homer off of Contreras at the Cell last year. I think Kevin Walker then blew a lead we had later in the game. haha once you mentioned it i remember exactly....i even remember i was in my car and exactly where i was when walker blew it....its weird how crap like that comes back to you

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 10:11 PM) Part 3, you mean. when was 2?

we need those runs on base....i dont want this to turn into dallas macphearson off of contreras part 2

according to the angels announcers, john lackey has struggled with the big inning

lol @ crede

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 10:04 PM) AJ acting like he never saw a curveball low and in. AJ acting like he saw it one too many times

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 10:00 PM) So how is everybody gonna feel about not making the playoffs this year? im holding reservation til after the minny series

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 09:57 PM) Terrible pitch selection. We're lucky he didn't hit that out. agreed....thats his hot zone...just watch game 1 of hte ALCS

who do you think you are ? maggs?

look what john lackey found

QUOTE(iguchi=dank @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 09:43 PM) Its very annoying to have mlb.tv and hear for the last 3 or 4 road series that this is the "vaunted white sox offense," everytime this gets mentioned we score like 2,3 runs. good stuff. the most annoying thing about mlbtv is that they wont change that damn screen during commercials...im so sick of seeing the esteban loaiza word jumble and that weird cut to the tom petty performance

goddamn marco scutaro pops out on the first pitch....i thought oakland hitters dont swing first pitch

im watchin on mlbtv, and the angels announcers are really giving contreras his props...hes been fantastic....crain walks in a run...oakland down 3 with the bases juiced and 2 out for big bad marco scutaro

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 09:59 AM) We really need a Mike MacDougal Appreciation Thread. He's been awesome with holding down this bullpen. That's turning into a great move in hindsight by KW. I was just thinkin this same thing...he has been a HUGE addition to our team and IMO if kenny doesnt make that trade we are probably at least 2 games worse...the guy has stepped right in and been as good as politte cotts and hermie were last year, and thats exactly what we needed. not to mention ozzie has asked him to go 1+ innings quite a bit and he has gotten the job done....all the while other pick ups like majewski and guaradado for the reds havent worked out at all, and we got macdougal much cheaper than the reds got majewski

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Sep 9, 2006 -> 12:53 PM) Crede's 1st 3 full seasons at the majors; .261/.308/.433 .239/.299/.418 .252/.303/.454 Now BA's 1st full season .231/.302/.365 What do you guys think of the comparison there, especially considering BA's 2nd half to the season? anderson hasnt even come close to showing the power crede did early in his career

QUOTE(WinningUgly85 @ Sep 8, 2006 -> 11:09 PM) I think we all just witnessed a flash back from last season when AJ walked off the dodgers. even tho it wasnt walk off the cubs shot was equally as good
