id love to see us trade lee for stewart..but toronto wouldnt be that stupid Not a lot of teams would be that stupid. Carlos has only gotten worse since 2000. I hope that changes. CWSOX45 you are wrong sorry he has improved almost every year his obp was .312, .345, .312, .359 since he got up here. Okay my mistake, what about his average though? His hitting with runners in scoring position? That's great that he's taking more walks, however it's only one piece of the puzzle. I hope Carlos can get that average up to where it was in 2000, we know he's capable. CWSOX45

I'm going to make some predicitons here since mine are usually always right..................... One team may win a game in this series. Tigers 0-3 Sox 0-3. Someone's going to win. CWSOX45

Without Jose we lose 12-2. What are you talking about? That error wasn't demoralizing compared the others by Konerko. CWSOX45

Yeah it's like in 2000 where they started off hot, I hope they beat the Twins three times in a row though, I doubt it though. Dammit I hate the Twinkies. CWSOX45

Hell I hate Kielty, Mohr, Hunter, Jones, Guzman, Koskie and that jackass Pierzynski or however the hell you say his damn name. They're all a bunch of f***ing hot dogs and show offs, nothing pleases me more than a Sox win and a Twinkie loss. CWSOX45

Kansas City better kick the s*** outta Minnesota this weekend, if not then we know for sure that the baseball gods screwed us over again...... CWSOX45

id say this...if youre not pissed off at what we just witnessed the past 3 days then maybe your sport should be golf or something its not like we are the yankees who can start the season 0-21 and still come back and make the playoffs..and win the series...and even then yankee fans go nuts when they lose 3 in a row.. we have all seen this before...remember '01???... is anyone watching the post game show...bill melton is going nuts right now....anyone wanna say he isnt a fan of the sox??? Actually I'm beyond pissed, I turned it off after it was 10-6, Now I look and see there were more errors and runs. This team needs a motivator, Jerry Manuel just yips at a umpire once in awhile and that's it. CWSOX45

The defense killed us early on, Garland pitched fairly well. Without all those damn errors he would have probably stayed until the sixth inning. That play where Konerko missed the ball in the first inning wasn't a f***ing hit, that play has to be made by either Jimenez or Konerko, and it wasn't. CWSOX45

Bring in Bobby V or Wally Backman....or someone good like that. Hell....give Sparky Anderson $5 mill a year and bring him in here....I'm sure he'd come in for $5 mill. He'd help us beat the s*** out of the Tigers in a damn hurry. I wish this team would realize that if they beat the teams they are supposed to beat, they can handle getting their asses handed to them occassionally by a big boy, instead of having to be beating the big boys just to stay within 5 games. After the 3rd game of the year....and you are 3 games out....you are in the s***ter. Atleast we didn't have to face Detroit when they had 4 pitchers make their big league debut....had that happened against us, you'd think the Tigers had the next 4 Cy Youngs coming out. Jesus I'll take either of those two, just give us someone that can motivate this team!!! CWSOX45

You're 100% correct. This team has shown no desire to win or even play. I wish the Sox played with the intensity the Royals did. CWSOX45

"what the living s*** is wrong with our team. No one is doing good at all. I dont get it all, Magglio is supposedly going to be the MVP, and he cant do s***. Thomas sucks, we are completely inconsistent. And what the hell is up with our gay ass bullpen. Rick white is an overweight piece of trash. Billy Koch is too dumb to actually work on his location on his pitches, Colon sucks, Konerko sucks, Lee is a waste of space, and thomas is a piece of s***. Anything I missed?" Yeah you're off on most of that, most of our guys are fine. You forgot to mention that we have a dumass manager. CWSOX45

I know I may seem really pissed off right now, but heres the question...who the hell isn't?? I have a right to be pissed off when my team plays so bad that my son's t-ball team could beat them. I'm not giving up on these guys, they have so much talent and will come back. However I am giving up on Jerry Manuel, the guys don't seem competitive or motivated at all over the past few years. We need a guy that will motivate them as much as possible. A good example is Tony Peña. CWSOX45

"Konerko has stunk so far this season. He has shown no range, no offense, nothing at all. He needs to get it together. Everyone on this team needs to think it over and group up. We need to come together right now... " It's much simplier than that, Konerko hasn't shown any effort, hell he doesn't even seem to give a s***. These guys better wake up and realize that they're not in spring training anymore. CWSOX45

"this game has nothing to do with Koch or Jerry Manuel, the defense was bad and didn't do the job. Jimenez, Valentin, Crede, Konerko (ESPECIALLY) were just bad today." You're right the defense was bad, so bad it almost seems like Jerry Manuel and crew sat around all spring training and didn't even give fielding practice to their players, it's defense like this where it is so bad that the manager has to be held accountable. CWSOX45

I just don't understand how we use our ENTIRE BULLPEN in one inning. Did the Sox work on ground balls in spring training? Or pop ups in the infield? We need a manager like Tony Peña, not some brainless moron like Manuel. CWSOX45

Another great job by Manuel using our entire bullpen, looks like Loaiza goes a full nine innings tomorrow. There is no excuse for this pathetic peformance to a team that has the talent of our AAA farm system. f*** YOU JERRY! :fyou CWSOX45

The way they played today was a f***ing disgrace. I want Manuel fired, something's not right with this team, are these guys even thinking? I've never seen such horrid defense. Fire Manuel now, and spare us from more losses from s***ty teams like the Royals. CWSOX45

Why is Konerko swinging at the first pitch?!! Ascencio walked Frank on four pitches and Maggs and Paulie hack and don't even make him pitch. I don't understand how Major League players make mistakes like this. Anyway 4-5, let's pull this one out. CWSOX45

I don't know about you guys, these guys have some young talent. I have been impressed with the DH Harvey. However, the Sox still should be able to kick their ass every day. Hope Garland can get us back on track tomorrow. CWSOX45

Never liked Manuel...this guy doesn't even try to motivate his team. Hell all he does is wait until they're on 10 game losing steaks and has a "closed door" meeting. I hope Manuel is gone by the end of the year. CWSOX45

Sorry, I don't really think the term tinkerer is a negative thing to say. Just the way I see it, in fact I myself am a tinkerer and move things around a lot in my home. Anyways, I love Graffanino and as I said before I'm glad JM is using the bench. CWSOX45

Thanks guys, I love Beltran. I only wish the Sox could get him, he'd fit perfectly into our line-up, hell he'd fit into anyone's line-up. CWSOX45

Is he on the DL, if so for how long? CWSOX45

Heather, thanks for the welcome! I used to post over at the MLB boards, but I noticed that all of the old posters from over there started posting over here. So I decided to give it a shot. I like these boards better actually, there seem to be more baseball discussions, and less trolls! CWSOX45
