Agree, props to Walker. And you're right, it's the pen that put us in this situation. Twins have 29 games left against very bad teams. Lets say they only go 17-12 in those games, which is fair and perhaps too hopeful. For there to be a TIE, the Sox will have to go 21-8 to finish the season, and that includes 7 against a team with a better record than us (BOS) and a trip to the west coast where we've always struggled. Which means we'd have to do something like this: @ BOS 2-1 @ DET 2-2 (facing both Scherzer and Verlander) KC 3-0 MIN 2-1 DET 2-1 @ OAK 2-1 @ LA 2-1 BOS 3-1 CLE 3-0 It's only 4 games, but it sure feels like a lot of ground to make up at this point.

wonder if we get stuck with a dbl header on Saturday since Friday looks like a rain out, thanks to earl.

look forward to some day seeing a Paul Konerko statue outside the cell.

what a roller coaster ride this team is

props to Lexi for sparking that rally. I thought Sergio was done. Hope he's rested.

liriano going 2nite. yikes

don't worry, they never come around to score

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 09:31 AM) Are you talking Teahen or Jones? I think Teahen should get a shot as a LHH to break up all if the RHH if Quentin does not get it together. I like Jones once in a while. I was talking about Jones.

here's the guy i want to see get going. Would love to see him take CQ's spot in RF

valencia 2b, 3-2

3-1 DET

QUOTE (hi8is @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 06:56 PM) Jake Peavy, the guy who will be our number 2 starter in 2011. Jackson, Peavy, Danks, Floyd, M56 Mercy!! that does look sweet

in the cell, Kubel just hit a 2 run dinger; at Target, it's a flyout

of course, the moment i turn on the twins game mauer hits a double

DJ is right - it's too easy to score off this pen and EVERYONE is scoring off this pen

crap crap crap sox just can't make it easy. sooo lucky that didn't get past Alex

give me liney!!

yikes

did the presence of Manny in the on deck circle have anything to do with that?

did hawk s*** himself?

lets hope AJ doesn't spoil it with a DP

manny putting on a batting helmet
