The Ginger Kid

something tells me the Sox won't be taking the Royals lightly in September in KC. In fact, I think they'll be packing the whooping sticks after a humiliating 4 game split. good win. Bury the Twins this weekend.

this team is schizo -- I have no idea how they'll play from one day to the next. QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 17, 2006 -> 09:37 AM) That's just not a very dangerous lineup against lefties. KW still has two weeks to upgrade this team. suggestions?

I guess last week was a freak occurance. Too bad, I was hoping for a hell of a lot more from this team.

Just sat down and saw this score and was sure it was a mistake. Is Contreras really that bad tonight?

Side note: The Sox have led at some point during 100 of this season's 117 games. Wow.

without question we have to take 3 of 4 from the royals, both from a division and WC perspective. One loss doesn't end the mojo, even to the royals. But two...

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 07:10 PM) Pathetic inning there. We're going to get Gobble next inning, and we know how well our 1-2-3 are vs LHP. I hope you're right, cause we got no chance against Hernandez it seems. (I should be cursed for saying that)

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 07:04 PM) even more reason we need to rally

detroit with a very impressive bounce back

yep one of those games

I was just so hoping that Javy was turning a corner.

bullpen phone off the hook!

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 06:34 PM) What a stupid decision! That's pathetic with PK on deck. Thanks for nothing Joey. i just don't get it

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 06:32 PM) I can't believe the Tigers pitched to Ortiz. i got a feeling manny's gonna go yard on rodney

how clutch is Ortiz? man....

fugly

why o why must javy constantly work from behind in the count? It's going to catch up with him.

2 out, mirabelli at the plate, Pena at 2b

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 06:04 PM) Surprising lack of patience by Dye swinging at a pitch way up in the zone. We better be careful here, as this game can get late quickly and Hernandez will have more confidence. royals bullpen = redemption

hitting the ball hard -- need to find some gaps

QUOTE(Reddy @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 05:57 PM) if i recall correctly we didnt match up too well against the sawks last year. yeah, they kicked our ass in the playo-- wait...never mind

detroit up 2-1

QUOTE(suffering-nomore-sox fan @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 07:40 AM) I caught Paulie's near homerun in game one of the ALDS, first inning, last year. But that's not all of the story. I failed to tell my wife that I was going--I figured it was a day game, I would be home at the normal time. Well, lo and behold, I catch the ball and what happens next? Espn puts me on for about 6 seconds holding the ball. The CEO of her company calls her into the office, and she sees my Ferris Bueller moment. Also, in a matter of 1 minute, I got 20 phone calls-- very cool. The pic of me on my profile is the moment frozen from TIVO. I kept the ball and gave it to my 5 year old. He has it on display in his room. winner!

That '84 Tigers team was awesome. I'd have to take them over the Yankees of '98.
