I really hope we can pull this off today. I'm really starting to think the season is slipping away.

When a .215 hitter with no power takes him deep then yeah I am a little worried.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 09:21 AM) I don't think Freddy was all that bad last night. If we don't strand 10 runners it looks better. Problem is that KC will be the worst offense he'll face the rest of the way.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 09:09 AM) I'd tend to think she's a f***ing ass clown. fixed

Could we win today? Possibly.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 08:28 AM) i was pretty disappointed in the result of the dropped fly ball (Alexei getting hung up in a pickle), but I have to say that Jeff Cox ruined the chance to win that game. That was not a deep fly ball, and Quentin is not fast plus he has plantar fasciatis, you dont roll the dice there. That was unbelieveably irresponsible Especially with no outs at the time.

You're really reaching there Tex.

He'll be lucky to last 2 innings at Fenway.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 18, 2009 -> 10:43 PM) Ozzie just said that he was satsified by what Freddy gave tonight. Looks like he could start again. Against Boston. Oh, god. WTF

Sox season is close to being over.

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Aug 18, 2009 -> 10:33 PM) Just got back from work, didn't see much. The score isn't insane, so I ask... how was Freddy tonight? Did he have anything? Don't let anyone fool you. He was not good against a very bad team. Our competition only gets better over the next few weeks. That translates to blow out losses with Freddy on the mound.

QUOTE (Hollywood_AU @ Aug 18, 2009 -> 10:32 PM) I hate to say it but this season is about 3 or 4 days from being over. Seriously, it may not be a bad idea to put Peavy on the shelf until spring. It's so frustrating because there is no reason the team should be as bad as they are. Major disappointment. What do you think about giving Peavy one or two more starts in AAA and then calling it a season? You may be right. The Tigers have an easier schedule and we're merely a .500 team.

QUOTE (rangercal @ Aug 18, 2009 -> 10:31 PM) How about we b**** about Gordon batting like a p**** of late? It's obvious he could use a day off. Has he even gotten one since being called up?

No thanks. Next!

I really hate this team sometimes.

Looking back at the 8th was there any reason why Thome didn't hit for Nix? He's HR'd off Tejeda before and there's no other PH opportunity for him coming up.

How many times have we come back from behind in the 9th inning this year?

Should be 4.5 games out by tomorrow night.

I'd pitch Thornton here and the 8th inning.

Here comes Billy Doubler.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Aug 18, 2009 -> 09:32 PM) Oh and the Tigers beat he M's bullpen...great....the M's will be swept rather easily check out the pitching mat-ups in the next two games. Today was Seattle's best chance to beat up on the Tigers with King Felix on the mound. He owns them and their offense fell flat.

Nice leadoff walk. That's always a good thing when your defense is below average.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Aug 18, 2009 -> 09:30 PM) I think this might be 'the day' ???

Meche was atrocious tonight and we could only manage 4 runs? Should have easily gotten 6 or 7 off him. *shakes head*

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Aug 18, 2009 -> 09:07 PM) Id rather have a guy like Freddy who has pitched in big games and come through, than a completely unproven rookie making his first career mlb starts in a stretch run. When? 3 years ago?
