Our runs-to-hits ratio has been bad this series. We should win these games by 5 or 6 runs.

Paulie needs to keep pace in RBIs here.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 02:24 PM) How some of you guys can say "it's over" down two runs in the 7th is pretty silly if you ask me. Then what would we talk about?

Jose needs to buy Jim dinner tonight for saving his ass.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 02:15 PM) I'd like to see him start and all, but now there's a few guys with better stats. He's had a below average month. ERA close to 6 in June after today.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 02:12 PM) And you know Gardenhire will set up his rotation with Santana and Liriano. That is, good pitchers who aren't "blooped to death" or give up 6 runs to Pittsburgh. I think it's stupid to look at the final series and compare who we play as opposed to who Detroit plays. We both face division foes to end the season. We both face division foes an equal amount of times. If we are behind by a couple games we have no one to blame.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 02:10 PM) Just got in, did Contreras give up all those runs? If so, he's been off for quite a few starts. All 6 charged to Jose. He had nothing today.

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 02:09 PM) Ozzie fears using his backup catcher like the plague. He must have nightmares about an injury to his catcher and not having a backup to replace him with daily. Very weird concern to have. What are the odds of that happening?

QUOTE(Maverick0984 @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 02:07 PM) jesus f***ing christ, go home widger, just leave the field LMAO

QUOTE(AbeFroman @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 02:05 PM) is thome coming in? No. Ozzie trying to get Widge to leave 10 men on base today.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 02:04 PM) Oh s***, an opportunity for Widger with a runner in scoring position!!!!! Time him for to come through. Why is he batting? 4 LOB so far.

Too bad we took out Jose. We need his bat later in this game.

A slam gives us a 2 run lead.

Heart of our order coming up.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 01:56 PM) Santana deserves it more. Most definitely.

Game

Damn this guy is a tough out.

Great...runners on the corners for Dirty Sanchez.

Does Jose pitch after the delay? I'm sure most of us say no but Ozzie is overly concerned with individual stats.

QUOTE(Shamrock4Life @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 01:29 PM) ...if you lose the division by .5 game... That would be impossible.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 01:27 PM) His ERA has shot up to the 3.5 range, and lets just hope AJP catches him for his next few starts. I expect a lot of controversy if Ozzie has Jose as the ASG starter, which he is quoted as saying. At this pace he won't be in the top 5 for starting pitchers by then.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 01:26 PM) No, because he ended up pitching poorly. He was doing that in every inning so I wasn't surprised with the results of this inning.

QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 01:23 PM) he was more worried about getting jose a win than the damn team Exactly. I thought the team came first not individual stats.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 01:16 PM) I would much rather see if he can straighten himself out the rest of the game I hope you're happy now.
