... and boy am I glad Ozzie got the umps on our side now. Let's blame everybody but ourselves.

Thome should be mad at himself for the suckfest he has been so far this year, not the umpire.

A twin killing, and it feels like 2007 again.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 11, 2008 -> 07:58 PM) Thome getting no respect from this umpire. So far this year, Thome has done little to get respect.

OC is un-clutchable this year so far, except that one time.

I know all the cons to it, but our hitters really need to go out their and kick a pitchers ass when he get plunked. The amount of time we get hit without any retaliation by hitters or pitchers is going to get around and we are just going to keep getting beat up.

I hope you all realize now that Grili is going to throw 3 innings of no hit baseball.

QUOTE (G&T @ Apr 11, 2008 -> 08:45 PM) Grilli warming. Or somebody warming up the grill?

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 11, 2008 -> 08:32 PM) One of my worst memories of the Sox from last year was Ozzie leaving Contreras in about 50 pitches too long at Boston last year, a game he ended up allowing 10 runs. Who knows what would have happened, but that couldn't have helped his trade value. Now, we're stuck with our version of Barry Zito. Only differece is Count is cheaper and has about 4 years less. Otherwise, the comparison is apt.

I wonder if this game could move slower.

Say, did somebody forget to tell Alexei when the team left Cleveland?

At a certain point, the distinction between honoring Jackie Robinson and ritualism starts to fade. It was nice the first time, but I would hate for it to be overdone to a point where point forget the genuine importance of Jackie.

Sox Win, Now Kansas needs to go and win me a lot of $$$ tonight.

DYE AND AJ CONTINUE HITTING.......... OH AND THAT CREDE GUY TOO............. WAY TO KEEP THE STREAK ALIVE BOYS!!!!!!!!!! GIMMIE A HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EAT s*** INDEED!!!! Good to have the master of ceremonies back around.

Can we just close this thread before the same people come and rehash the same arguments. It's over, let it go.

Save situation unless the Sox tack on a few more runs ... which would be nice.

Farmio made it sound like that was gone. Bastard!

This is getting ugly quickly. Lot of cheap hits and the Sox are knee deep in poop-peanuts.

Think The Giants are wishing for Crede now. They could at least get one run a game with him.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 7, 2008 -> 04:30 PM) If the Sox ever lose due to your having not invoked the Rally Llama I think this board is entitled to curse you out until the next win. Others are free to mention Llamas as well. But I rush home from work just to post it today.

Let me just say this, every time I mention a Llama in a game thread this year, the sox have a big inning shortly there after. Respect the Rally Llama.

We need to at least tie it this inning or we are pretty much screwed.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Apr 7, 2008 -> 03:39 PM) We're going to head into a phase where some people on this board are going to want Swisher at 1b and Owens in CF. It will at first be called the dumbest idea on earth, and then eventually (maybe not immediately).... one of Paul/Jim will be declared done and those people will not seem so dumb. I have saved us the need to watch all these games. Hey if we get Anderson in, with Swisher at 1b, we can have a 1b leadoff hitter. Nah, lets just put Owens at 1B. Make the transition easier.
