QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 03:50 PM) Terrible start by Buehrle. Yet he was cheered as he left the game. I wouldn't have booed, but I sure as s*** wouldn't have cheered.

Ugh, our outfield defense if f***ing laughable.

That's going to lead to trouble.

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:57 PM) Glad to see the "School of Rock" knockoff, "The Rocker," totally bomb at the box office. Came in at 12th averaging $987 a screen http://www.boxofficemojo.com/weekend/chart/ I think Hollywood is trying to take advantage of people's love of Dwight Schrute by putting that actor in movies. It's clearly not working.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:30 PM) 12 That's still a lot. I'm glad that he's already out of the GG race, then.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:28 PM) That should be about error #25 on the season for Cabrera. How many does he actually have?

I have always hated Orlando Cabrera, but I never knew exactly why until he played for my team.

f*** YOU OC I f***ING HATE THAT PUSSY

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:23 PM) Yep, more terrible, terrible defense as Dye has a piano on his back. Buehrle's going to give the lead up here. That can't be true. DJ just said he's been having a gold glove year.

Yeah, that's why we need relatively fast outfielders instead of the slowest possible outfield that any team could possibly field.

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:09 PM) this game should be 4-0, unreal. Alright, I'm all about the pessimism, but c'mon. We just had a rally. Enjoy it.

Haha, yessssssssssssssss.

Yessssssssssss...let's keep it rolling, Quentin. He had been in a little funk with the RISP situations recently, but no more.

Did Hawk leave? I haven't heard him in a while.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 01:36 PM) Any chance it might rain today? I've never heard Hawk sound so defeated. He sounded like he was anointing the Rays the champions earlier.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 01:33 PM) We have 4 there, and that includes Richard going tomorrow. I know. I'm saying that we'll probably win or split the series, and people will say we're fine. We can't beat the good teams.

QUOTE (FranktheTank35 @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 01:31 PM) So who still thinks we're going to make the playoffs? Playing like such ass at home, I don't even care that its the Rays. We have been EMBARRASSED so far. Eh, I'm sure we'll win 2 or 3 in Baltimore, and everything will be "right" again.

Do people still consider Buehrle an ace? I've never seen a guy just cave so consistently with errors in my life.

Good job, "ace." Mark Buehrle has never overcome an error or miscue in his entire career.

I see kyyle, fathom, lostfan, and B>W are all online. I hope you're all chatting.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 01:29 PM) Stop yelling. No one knows when he is supposed to come back, and that includes Linebrink and Cooper. Now in my opinion, if the Sox weren't in a playoff race, Linebrink would have been shut down for the season weeks ago. I give him credit for trying to come back, but I don't think it happens. If it does, I can't imagine him being any where near as effective as he was in the first half. Losing Linebrink was the biggest blow to this team all season. The Sox went from an above average pen to poor overnight. Agreed. In fact, I think most would agree. I think we need him to come back healthy if we intend on making the playoffs/making any noise in the playoffs. The bullpen has had some strong runs during his absence, but it's been awful for the most part.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHEN LINEBRINK IS SCHEDULED TO COME BACK?

The Lord of the Rings is on TNT right now. I hate the way they say Mordor.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 10:33 AM) Of course Ozzie is going to play Crede if healthy. The key words are "if healthy", which Crede has not been. It would be nice to get a boost from Crede at the end of the year playing for a contract The bad thing is that Crede will definitely get starts when he returns to try to prove that he is healthy. He, of course, will not be healthy and will likely hurt the team during a crucial time of the year. So, those obligatory few games where we "have" to give him a chance, before we decide he's not our best option and still clearly injured, will end up being negative for the team.
