QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ May 17, 2006 -> 07:33 PM) i think eventually detroit will fade. i dont think they'll keep this up the whole year. maroth, will definatley fade though. And this is based on?

So is El Duque going to come in and salvage the finale in TB like he did last year?

QUOTE(Felix @ May 17, 2006 -> 07:08 PM) Jon Garland. Great, or greatest? Heh. He is offically on notice if you ask me.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ May 17, 2006 -> 07:06 PM) Off night. So you chose the gay midget? I would have went with the hispanic. And somebody have Gomes pee in a cup!

I love when we play down to the competition.

I'll always have a place in my heart for Seth McClung. He helped eliminate the Tribe last year. But I still want him to s*** his pants tonight.

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ May 17, 2006 -> 12:18 PM) Jenks? Doesn't really bother me. 9 ER in 16 innings isn't very impressive for a closer. Not saying he's terrible but I'd like to see that ERA go down.

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 17, 2006 -> 11:03 AM) It's almost ironic, but there was talk that Cubs threw the 1918 WS to the Red Sox. Unless my memory of this stuff is all skewed. You were alive back then?

QUOTE(WCSox @ May 16, 2006 -> 03:04 PM) IIRC, the crosstown series has been pretty evenly-split singe interleague play was introduced. No matter how good one team is doing and how down-and-out the other is, sweeps have been few and far between. Despite how awfully the Cubs have been recently, I wouldn't be surprised if they took one of out three this weekend. Zambrano going on Sunday. In case you haven't noticed he is locked in right now.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 17, 2006 -> 08:58 AM) Not a chance that Ozzie/KW will continue to play him if he's hitting under .200 all season. If we are comfortably 3-5 games in first place throughout the year I can see them letting him continue to work through his struggles.

Position Players: 80s: Ivan Calderon 90s: Frank Thomas 00s: Tadahito Iguchi Pitchers: 80s: Melido Perez 90s: Jack McDowell 00s: Mark Buehrle

QUOTE(Sox1422 @ May 17, 2006 -> 07:58 AM) I love his defense, but he is brutal at the plate. How much longer does this guy get before a change needs to be made? Of the top 5 things that bother me about the Sox this year, he doesn't even make the list. My list in no particular order: - Boone Logan's suckiness - Jon Garland's woes - Ross Gload's uselessness for this team - Jenk's shaky outings - The incomplete green seats

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ May 16, 2006 -> 11:22 PM) In hindsight...I think tonights outing has spelled an end to Logan. We will see Count back for Montero and than Nelson will be called up. In fact, if the Sox think he's ready, Nelson may be up even sooner than we think. I rather bring Count up for Logan.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 16, 2006 -> 09:48 PM) Basically, here's what needs to happen. Send down Boone and Agustin now. Call up Lopez and Tracey. Tracey would only be up til Saturday or whenever Count comes off. He gives us a long guy we won't have since BMac and Montero will likely be burnt out. Who cares if he is burnt out if we send him down?

/me patiently awaits to hear official word that Logan was sent down.

This was a mini-blessing in disguise. Kenny is now forced to do something to improve this bullpen soon. Status quo is unacceptable.

*sigh*

Thornton with a nice 8th.

Who's their closer?

Cool. Thornton in to make it out of reach again.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ May 16, 2006 -> 09:10 PM) Here comes a lefty. Lefty scmefty

That Pods play at the plate looms large now.

Nice swing. Ugh

Which team has a s***tier bullpen tonight?

I will be very pissed if we lose by 1 run.
