Why the hell is Teahen wasting time in Charlotte while Kotsay continues to suck??

f*** you Kenny and Ozzie for signing Kotsay as our goddamn DH!!

Why do people keep trying to convince me that the Twins have bad pitching?

I see Grienke has been a little cranky.

Kotsay

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 02:11 PM) Yeah and I get that, but having him catch the one game in the series we face a RHP doesn't make a lot of sense. I bet AJ faces both LHP now, or at least one, and he shouldn't face either. Kotsay hitting ahead of Alexei is bizarre as well. Don't mess with Ozzie and his incredible lineup making skills.

I normally don't wish injury upon players but I hope all the starters for the Twins get season ending toe stubs.

Why the f*** is Kotsay still hitting 5th?

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 12:19 PM) The Mariners? The same Mariners who beat the mighty Yankees two outta three in a series at the end of June/beginning of July? Those Mariners? Gosh, that outcome must have sunk the Yankees season right there and then, I mean, losing a series to the lowly Mariners like that. I'll have to go check to see how they are doing, but I'm sure it's not good. They lost "a" series to a crappy team - end of season!! Your attempt at being negative towards negative posters is equally annoying.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 12:00 PM) Has he gotten a chance to face him in a legit big game? Every game between these two teams is big whether it's May or August.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 11:37 AM) many feel he will clear waivers because of his contract Who cares what Manny feels.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 11:17 AM) While I don't want to exagerate, losing 3 of 4 was bad, don't give a crap if they got a new manager, you simply don't lose to the worst team in MLB if you want to go deep in the playoffs IMO. And we don't have too many easy teams left on our schedule. If we're going to make the post season we definitely have to earn it now. Other than the home series vs Baltimore the other easy teams we have left are KC and Cleveland and they've played us very tough all year.

I get annoyed when everyone goes insane at the game on a fly ball that is clearly not going to be a HR. Why don't people take a quick glance at the outfielder and which way he's running/walking to get an idea if the ball has a chance to go out? The last game we went to some lady right behind us kept going berserk for every routine fly out. I felt like punching her.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 10:13 AM) If Teahen doesnt take Kotsay's at bats, I will go nuts. He's a MUCH better hitter than Kotsay, especially at this point. And why are they waiting so long to bring him back? He's a noticeable upgrade over Kotsay. He should be here already.

Damn I hope we win tonight. Tempers are starting to flare around here.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 09:45 AM) I'm kind of glad that Jackson wasn't brought here TO BE shipped out for Dunn and for that reason only, they wanted him, they felt like he can help us win games, and I'm confident in that move. I feel the same way. It's a good feeling to know that all 5 of our starters have the ability to shut down an offense.

We're a 3rd of the way through August and still no bat. Is this the lineup we'll be using the rest of the way?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 09:10 AM) Where are all of the posts about how Putz should be DFA'd? Why should he be DFA'd? His season numbers are fantastic as opposed to what Jenks and Kotsay have provided.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 08:53 AM) But I'm not allowed to be hard on Edwin Jackson's performance last night? Part of the reason why our guys have terrible home/road splits is that our home ballpark is the best HR hitting ballpark in baseball. Our home/road splits should be excessive. That's just part of it. You can't attribute Carlos' .188/.267/.376/.643 to not playing at USCF. He's got to put up better numbers than that on the road.
