AJ is Da Man!!!

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 10, 2010 -> 09:34 PM) Whew, wasn't sure how far that was off the bat. Hell of a clutch hit by AJP!! AJ coming on strong late in the season during a pennant race. He's got a lot left in the tank. I hope he's back next year.

AJ is done. They should have started Flowers.

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 7, 2010 -> 04:35 PM) http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/st...&pid=493364 Thanks. Looks like he did pretty well in his last ten games, by the numbers anyway. Hopefully he can help out some down the stretch.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 7, 2010 -> 02:46 PM) Viciedo recalled. Can anyone inform how Viciedo performed after being sent back down? Thanks!

Give him a cortisone shot and he'll be fine in three days.....I hope.

Here is the Sox's revised lineup: Pierre lf Vizquel 2b Rios cf M. Ramirez dh Teahen 3b Quentin rf Pierzynski c Kotsay 1b A. Ramirez ss Garcia p

Beckham said the pain is jumping around and today is the worst it's felt in three days. They may have to look at it again. per Cowley

Beckham scratched per Merkin.

QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 05:22 PM) The boys are in the thick of a pennant race, a race for all intents and purposes we should have been out of, but Ozzie kept the team together... One can also make the case that we could have/should have been a couple of games up in first at this point. No one will ever know for sure....

I'm just tired of this team running into so many outs.

The reports of AJ's demise have been premature and greatly exaggerated.

Bobby Jenks is good.

How about a 2 run bomb by Pierre right here?

Nice job by Bobby. Now let's get some insurance runs and let Thornton finish it off.

Maybe Thornton gets the ninth??

I don't like these 4 out save attempts for Jenks. He gets cold when he has to sit through the top of the ninth. Hopefully the White Sox put up a big crooked number in the top of the ninth.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 08:50 PM) Beltre almost ran himself into a double play there. What the hell was he doing? Just messin' with Hawk.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) I was wrong but boy does this guy work a count. He truly is a professional hitter and a fun guy to watch at the plate. Good day for Mannypalooza. Ditto that.

Another good AB by Manny.

I want to see Manny hit a HR this inning.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 08:32 PM) Every walk is dreaded. Only the ones to the opposition.

The dreaded two out walk.

Great ABs today by Manny. Pitching got the job done. I'm tired of the Sox running into outs, however.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 09:06 PM) He seriously tried to give that game away by himself. Horrible at bats, horrible defense, horrible game. If it was up to me, in the 9th I would of pinch hit Manny for Carlos and then put Jones in for defense in the bottom of the inning. It worked out fine, but I didnt want him up there taking hacks, even at a pitcher that was obviously struggling I had the same thoughts. Also as I just posted in another thread, Quentin's two misplays caused Jackson to throw more pitches and stressful ones at that. Maybe if he makes those plays Jackson is able to pitch a complete game and allow the bullpen a little rest.
