Where's that 10 HR week I've been waiting for from Thome?

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:23 PM) The Sox looked like they've been mailing it in for the last few weeks. Fixed

9-7 Tigers in the 8th.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:20 PM) Can we finally get over the illusion of "Coop Majic"? Isn't this enough proof to eliminate such a misconception?

So every team in the AL that matters will win tonight. Hooray.

Beuhrle already admitted a few days ago that once they give up the lead the team has a "here we go again" attitude. They no longer have the confidence in being able to come back from a defecit. It's very apparent to everyone.

QUOTE(whitesox1976 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:13 PM) Does anyone think we could get Soriano for Vazquez? I know that may sound crazy but I would rather get rid of him than Brandon. Who the hell would want him and his inflated contract? Still trying to figure out why we traded for him.

Have you ever seen a team this talented just implode like this? Sad really.

over/under for number of baserunners we have for the remainder of the game = 2

This ain't the same Neal from last year. Not even close.

QUOTE(Felix @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:01 PM) I love Juan Uribe, and I'm not afraid to say it. Right there with you.

Jeez. I'm looking at the Twins lineup and am baffled as to how they are beating us.

If we get out of this unscathed it would be a huge momentum shift.

So what's worse, the Vazquez trade or the Todd Ritchie trade?

QUOTE(South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 08:52 PM) Vazquez sucks. Get him out of there while it's still close. But our bullpen is burned out after yesterday.

QUOTE(Reddy @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 08:50 PM) day off. it happens. just surprised it's against the twins... Lets see...no other teams are giving the Tigers and Twins any problems these days. Lets rest our players in these 2 series. Great idea.

Why is Gload in the lineup? Is Dye hurt? Isn't Makowiak a better corner OF option?

QUOTE(CWSOX45 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 08:46 PM) Vazquez did give up the runs, but for f***s sake, our offense has got to pick him up. We can't expect our pitchers to win every damn game with only 1 or 2 runs scored by our offense. Thankfully Gload is in the lineup to spark things.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 08:44 PM) Of course this is two times in a row with Javy where I've gotten home to turn on the TV only to witness Javy give up a 2-0 lead right away. Ditto And where did our offense go?

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 06:20 PM) Where's our Liriano? 29 other teams can say that.

Any concerns with the team being distracted tonight with all these trade rumors?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 04:28 PM) WHY NOT MACK? WHAT THE HELL DID WE GET HIM FOR? We have completely misused him. Not sure why we traded for him. QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 05:24 PM) It's a fair question. Maybe some team wants to see Gload play OF? So we can sacrifice a win to showcase a guy?

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 03:35 PM) No. Prior to the Sox, center played him. No way!

QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 03:20 PM) Imagine that bullpen when healthy and the pitchers are "on." Wow. Asking for 3 pitchers to be "on" simultaneosuly has been a rarity for the 2006 Sox.

Who knows. Maybe Soriano would want to stay here after playing for Ozzie for a few months and getting a WS title.
