Keep it up Contreras, we need you.

So we sit the key to our offense to put in Borchard? Not exactly smart.. especially when he is hitting .360 in September.. Remember when he went on the DL? Remember how we did when that happened? I, personally, dont want to go through that again.

You know there is an 'edit' button.. right?

uh.. as far as I know (which isnt much), Brian Anderson is the only one of those 3 that is ready for the MLB, and his defense is good (he has a great arm if i remember correctly), so putting him as a DH takes that arm away.

yay for walks anyway, im off to work. I better come home to see a game won by the Sox.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 17, 2005 -> 11:40 AM) Yahoo says Lohse, and I'm pretty sure it's his turn in the rotation. Probably him then. I was just guessing

Radke I think.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Sep 17, 2005 -> 11:05 AM) Which is why I've said Chad Tracy is a better option all along. He's younger, can play more positions, and pretty much has the same stats as Lyle in only is 2nd full season in the majors. I'd rather Konerko.

QUOTE(farmteam @ Sep 17, 2005 -> 09:18 AM) Overbay (or the same amount, since he's proven himself fairly well, whereas Howard could go into a sophomore slump). I dont see how Overbay has proven himself. He has played 2 complete seasons (including this one), and his numbers fell off alot compared to last years. Overbay isnt that good a player, and his ~70 RBI's wont get the job done at first base for the Sox. The fact that even in his career year (2004) he didnt break the 90 RBI mark is scary.

Games before 7 on Saturdays get blacked out.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Sep 16, 2005 -> 07:28 PM) Pods' job is not only to get on base, but to get steals and score runs. He hasn't done that. Right now, he's the crappiest .300 hitter(for the month of sept) in baseball. Getting on base for him just means he's prolonging the out. Don't make a difference if you get on base and they make an out opposed to making an out at the plate. Pods has had 66 AB's with runners in scoring position. In those 66 AB's, he has 23 RBI. (an RBI every 2.87 AB's, which isnt bad) In 33 AB's with RISP and 2 outs, Pods has 8 hits and 8 RBI, amounting to a .303 average. In 26 AB's with a man on second, Pods is hitting a remarkable .385 with 6 RBI. Considering the fact that he hasnt had many AB's in these situations, he's doing well getting the people home when he has to. And yes, I know that he is hitless with the bases loaded, so no need to point that out.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Sep 16, 2005 -> 10:26 PM) Torii Hunter is rooting for us if we make it. Yea, and he's also hoping that Cleveland catches us. QUOTE(mmmmmbeeer @ Sep 16, 2005 -> 10:28 PM) I refused to root for the twinks the past 3 seasons. yea, they brought that up when Hunter said that.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Sep 16, 2005 -> 08:45 PM) Boy, the twinkies announcers are just loving the sox collapse You watch it on MLB.tv as well?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 16, 2005 -> 10:08 PM) We're now 9-1 in Extra Inning games on the road this season. And winless in extra inning games at home if I remember correctly.

Whats the number, 12 now?

Bobby Motherf***ing Jenks.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 16, 2005 -> 09:59 PM) The Sox usually play the infield in for those situations. The Sox != The Twins

Thank god we have Bobby Jenks.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 16, 2005 -> 09:57 PM) Uribe is the hottest hitter. fine, second hottest

QUOTE(BFirebird @ Sep 16, 2005 -> 09:56 PM) If they do they are dumb. The players make the plays...he is your starting left fielder and there wasn't that much on the bench to go to in my opinion. Yeah Anderson is a good hitter, but a high strikeout rookie hitter. Ozzie can only use what he has. hey, I'm agreeing with you. These recent losses have been lost by the players, not the managers.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 16, 2005 -> 09:54 PM) I wouldn't have had Pods batting there. However, it's all about the bottom of the 10th now. I can understand you partly, but Pods is the hottest hitter on the Sox right now, no need to take him out. LETS GO JENKS!!!1

And wait, if we lose, everyone is going to blame Ozzie for not pinch hitting for Pods.

It's Ozzie's fault Pods didnt get a hit there.

Good eye pods. This is how you get good pitches to hit.

Yea, thats true
