I have little confidence in winning today. Hitting goes to sleep after the 1st and Giz-can will be in soon.

This is painful to watch.

Have the lineups been announced?

Please stop playing corpseball guys. Lets get back to the fundamentals. Moving runners along, stealing bases, going with the pitch.

My lineup: Pods Iguchi Dye Konerko AJ Hot Carl Aaron Crede/Blum Uribe

QUOTE(Mr. Showtime @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 12:44 PM) See with Walker, he only had to go through the NL, not many teams had a chance to grab him. Weren't the Cards the best team in the NL? They would have been the last team in that league to make a move.

So the chances of getting him are what? 1%?

QUOTE(Tadahito15 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 11:06 AM) People, it seems like the playoff team who gets a big momentum changing series (Pudge holding ball w/marlins, red sox coming back after down 3-0) always propels themselves to their highest playing ability. Suppose we do get Oakland in the first round. Oakland has really sucked in the playoffs. If our team pulls out a big first round win against a team that has always owned them, just think of how good they would feel and how much that would pump them up. That could be the big momentum builder in the postseason. Either way, I would like to see us prove to Oakland and ourselves that we can beat them. And for right now, JUST ENJOY THIS MAGICAL SEASON!

Sheesh. The way we're playing at home maybe we don't want homefield advantage throughout the playoffs? 3-8 at home in the last 11.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Aug 2, 2005 -> 05:53 PM) Sox have hit a minor home slump since that Oakland series prior the the break. Before that it was pretty much even. Hopefully the Sox can get back on track at home starting tonight I think big Jon will get us back on track. We pwnz the Jays.

QUOTE(soxman352000 @ Aug 2, 2005 -> 05:25 PM) You do know you can pay extra for the local channels on DirecTv, but it is kind of a rip off. GO SOX Yeah but he's in Pasadena. WCIU is not a local channel there.

The only thing I know about this event is that Don Cooper walks around with his shirt off the whole time. Makes it a bit uncomfortable.

I would rather have the Sox face as many tough pitchers as possible before October so they can get a sense of what playoff pitching is all about. I don't want them to have a false sense of security by beating up on mediocre guys for the next 2 months.

I remember the radio call of that triple. I was working my first job at the Cinnabon at the mall. I became the hugest Thomas fan since that moment.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Aug 2, 2005 -> 02:36 PM) Nope... 0-4 with one rbi like brian said. Hmm....I wonder what play I'm thinking of. Maybe his first hit in the big leagues?

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 2, 2005 -> 01:37 PM) Frank Thomas made his major league debut for the Sox vs. the Milwaukee Brewers, going 0-4 with 1 RBI. My mind must be going to crap. I thought Frank hit a triple off the top of the wall in his debut?

QUOTE(spiderman @ Aug 2, 2005 -> 08:19 AM) Are we at 43 right now ? I don't understand why people are saying we are at 43. Going into yesterday we were at 45. We won...making it 44. Twins and Tribe tied for second. Twins lose but Tribe stood still. The tribe are now in 2nd place so it should remain at 44. Or am I just a complete moron?

Griffey is a guy who most likely will be on the list because of his enormous contract.

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 04:40 PM) I wanna play the A's in the playoffs. Cause revenge is a dish best served in the playoffs. Ever notice the A's are all white guys. A bunch of racists. Wheres the culture on that team. Chavez and Scutaro are latin players. Oh yeah, Dotel too.

QUOTE(AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Jul 30, 2005 -> 09:08 PM) ESPN Baseball tonight says Tampa out of the Manny 3 way trade... Good....gives us a chance at Baez and Huff.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Jul 30, 2005 -> 10:38 AM) Eric is probably getting traded to Boston for Minor Leaguers to replace the injured Trot Nixon. You really think that 2 teams in the same division would make a trade like that?

QUOTE(Brian @ Jul 29, 2005 -> 07:21 PM) Crede and Uribe with back to back 2 out walks. Mark this day in history. I just saw a pig fly past my window.

Great...maybe we'll see Timo as our DH.

Sorry to be so negative but how many managers give their team MVP as many days off as Ozzie does?

Whatever. It's just one loss. Lets all calm down.
