Mark Kotsay = awesomeness.

Took out Konerko for a baserunner and somehow made our offense more potent...

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 03:59 PM) Ozzie has a man crush on him just like kotsay....but I agree he shouldn't be the closer I don't know if I'd call it a man-crush...Putz and Thornton have been really useful in their roles, and especially lately each one has h ad some faults. Righties have been hitting Matty hard, Putz has had a bad week.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 03:52 PM) The baseball gods love the Twins, they hate us. Those same Twins blew a 6 run lead in the 8th.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 03:50 PM) The Sox would have to be up 3. Santos and Pena will probably get used first. Maybe even Linebrink. You're forgetting all the lefties in the Tigers lineup.

Some good news from this one? Sale might get a shot at his debut.

Well, the Twins had a 6 run lead evaporate and still came back to win. We just had a 3 run lead evaporate...

Bobby Blows another.

Augh, come on bobby!

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 03:31 PM) Has it really been that long? So we actually did win all these games in spite of Mark Only his 2nd home run since May 26.

First HR for Kotsay since June 8.

Kotsay did something!

YES!

Damnit Matt. They're not getting out of this without a run.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 03:14 PM) Why is Matt facing Cabrera? Really I have no idea. Maybe Ozzie's lost confidence in JJ.

Dammit Matt

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 03:00 PM) Raburn in to pinch hit. Matt's suddenly doing better against righties.

Thornton ought to face both Rhymes and Damon.

Well, that's a solid recovery from the HR...striking out Laird.

Changeup, left up in the zone.

Well, there's the first. Leadoff homer for Kelly in the 7th.

Link. All Merkin has to say about it.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 02:38 PM) Putz, Thornton and Jenks all pitched last night. I assume Santos gets used today, but will Ozzie pull the trigger on Sale if it's still 2-0 in the 8th? The rest of the pen had Monday and Tuesday off before yesterday. I think just about everyone's going to be available, and I kind of doubt that Ozzie'll start him off late in a close division game.
