Indian hitters are getting some rockets off of Danks so far, glad the wind is blowing in still.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:47 PM) But its a grinder-like .194. I don't mind Erstad, there paying him next to nothing baseball money-wise. I do think Anderson could hit .194 though. I agree DA, its not that I mind grindErstad being on the team for what he makes salary-wise, but whats the point of him playing everyday, when BA could put the same numbers up, play better defense, and get the work he needs if hes ever going to develop a better approach at the plate.

HAHA, good call fathom. grindErstad 1 for his last 18, 5 K's and down to a paultry .194 BA

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:39 PM) 2 runs thru 2 isn't bad. We couldn't expect him to hold the Indians down. What's the chances of an Erstad 4-3 this inning? Chances are....better than remote!

OK, thats enough HR allowed Danks kthx

Out and over the plate = not so good location to throw a fastball

QUOTE(beautox @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:27 PM) what ever happened to seeing who was in the thread at any given time? is there a way to turn that feature back on? It is off with the old search feature, as they created a hellacious strain on the bandwidth

Stop the presses, an AJP hit!!

Until his 2nd one, AJ and his 1 RBI will still make me laugh, considering how he got that one...talk about slumping.

Looks like our normal lineup out there today: Prancer, grindErstad, Thome, Konerko, Dye, Crede, AJP, Gooch, Ooooribe

Winning today would be pretty big, with the weather in Cleveland tonight and tomorrows game in doubt either way, weather or CC on the mound.

Its ok BWJ, just ask all of us Sox fans...we remember Crawford all too well, and good ole Billy Koch remembers him for damn sure...

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 02:34 AM) I know, we should definitely expect more from the Anderson in the 3 at bats he gets every week, I don't see reason why he shouldn't be sharp for that 1 start he gets every week. I do agree though, Erstad's 4 BB and .294 OBP this season are kicking some serious ass atop the order. Oh and he's obviously the best defensive centerfielder on the team, 12 years of wear and tear on his body and a few dozen surgeries aside. Agree, couldn't have put it any better myself.

Isn't it kinda scary how EVERYONE outside of Ozzie and his "OK KW, if you want him on the team, he'll be here...never playing." outlook seem to know that having a 24 man roster is putting us behind the 8 ball?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 10:35 PM) 29 AB .207 avg, .604 OPS, 18 or so weak groundouts. 1 for his last 16 w/ 5 K God those numbers are HOT!!! I can see why he deserved to win the starting CF job just by signing a contract with us!!

OK, lets get someone ready please Oz...don't let us blow this one.

QUOTE(Wanne @ Apr 13, 2007 -> 09:27 PM) Nice avatar! There is no way in hell I can't remind people of just how fantastic a play Pods made in that game, so I'll keep the avatar as long as I can stand it!

Hmm, well if the score remains the same, do you bring Sisco back out, or put Masset in for 1 or 2 innings, then Mac or Thornton?

Only AJ and Gooch in the starting lineup are hitting less than KW and Ozzies hero, Mr grindErstad.

grindErstad now 1 for his last 15, 5 K's Grinding away.

Pods..good lord.

OK, bring on that 'pen Oz!! Masset for 2/Thornton or Mac for 1/Jenks for 1?

Luckily no blackouts for ChiSox in South Carolina, or even while I'm here in the UK. Good thing I have no desire to watch the Braves though on mlb.tv. Any ideas on Javy pitch count?

First 4 in the order: 0 for 9 Second 5 in the order: 8 for 11

I think Dye got that one.
