QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 02:17 PM) Hafner is 0/1 with a strikeout against Jenks in his career. Oh, okay. I feel a little better. I just think Hafner scares me...he looks really scary.

Anyone else worried about the Hafner-Jenks match-up? I know you go with Bobby and don't play match-ups but it worries me for some reason.

Now, with a 2-1 lead, we see the value of the off-season signings (Dotel did his part).

Kong!

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 01:56 PM) What should've happened, is Anderson in for Dye, Swish to Lf and Q to right. You let Dye bat first...and then consider your options.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 01:53 PM) Fields would have it it farther. Man...same thought, same time and I must up just gotten caught in the queue

Fields would have hit it farther...

Bright spots of this series: 1) Masset 2) Danks 3) AJ 4) Logan

Quentin is my pick to click. Hopefully keeps the job full-time with today's showing.

Atta boy Danks! Already better than our first two starters.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 06:14 PM) I wasn't even that pissed when Mark was getting rocked. Whatever. However when this team shows heart, claws back against the Cy Young winner, then has to battle against the AL Central Champs AND the umps, I get pissed. I believe our run to the World Series title was chalked full of blown calls so eventually things even out. I am just glad its happening on Opening Day or any of the 162 games and not the playoffs.

QUOTE(DonnyDevito @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 06:14 PM) that's why i hate pro sports. the league controls the outcomes of the games. whether it be the NBA or MLB. these are crooked organizations that need more enforcement. Alright Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory...whatever you say.

Don't forget 17-12 White Sox so don't worry, the Indians still need to score 2 more runs. Then the WS will put up a 10 spot next half inning and Jenks will shut the door in a non-save situation as Ozzie doesn't want to take any chances (especially with tomorrow off).

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 06:06 PM) Life would be so much easier if the Sox could just go 162-0. Is that too much to ask? Actually, 173-0 would be nice because if you went 162-0, you have to sweep the playoffs too to prove that your year wasn't a fluke. That's a lot of pressure.

Gutierrez is the new Sox Opening Day killer joining CoCo Crisp and Grady Sizemore

50 posts and not one person told us that can't see the game what happened? What happened on OCab's AB?

Why not bring in Ozuna to bunt...or just handle the bat and hit it to the right side...Juan, you better not K

QUOTE(SoxWS05 @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 05:45 PM) uhmm Boone just became my new favorite player with that inning and his new beard Did we not see this beard in Spring Training? If not, is it a clip-on?

QUOTE(daa84 @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 05:45 PM) so boone made sizemore and hafner look silly....that ball hafner hit off logan back in 06 in boones first game just landed though hahahahahaahha

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 05:12 PM) who does Ozzie give the ball to here? Thornton Or knowing Ozzie: Thornton, MacDougal, Logan to get Sizemore, Michaels and Hafner respectively. Then Linebrink, then Jenks. Dotel gets day off...only there in case one of the last two struggle.

Wouldn't mind seeing Ozuna next (taking over 3B) and then BA for Uribe (ARam taking over 2nd and BA to CF).

Kong!

QUOTE(SoxWS05 @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 04:55 PM) I would love to see jim lay one down the third base line. I think he'd be more capable of sitting on that back foot and firing one down that line waiting for that ball to get a little further towards home plate. Not sure I want to see Thome try and bunt any time soon, but its Ozzie so who knows?

Green*Jim Thome needs to lay down a sac bunt here...*Green

A 7-spot this inning would look nice!
