6 games, 4 wins, 2 series won.. Even the simplest math will show you that if you win every series, you win 100+ games. Will we win every series? no, but 2 out of every 3 in general shuld be enough to satisfy any fan. Likes: Iguchi - catching on fast, playing solid D at 2nd, and starting to see the pitches very well Pods - doing his thing on the basepaths early and often. If we get a .270-.275 average outta him, we are good IMO, cause he will be on base enough to do his thing. Starting Pitching - Up until today, 5 starts, 5 QUALITY starts. Garland can give me 6 IP and 3 ER every 5th day and I'm ecstatic. Dislikes: - Unfounded grief from Sox "fans" about every minute thing in a loss. "Crede shouldnt have tried to do his job!" "Shingo sucks! He blew a save omg!" "Why did Ozzie use all our pitchers so early, now we are screwed!" Yeah, 162 games folks, there are gonna be 60 losses, there are gonna be 60 wins. Those other 42 games are teh ones that matter. Rowand, Crede slow Offensive starts - Every year, Crede starts in a funk. Its like clockwork by now, we should expect it. Just always hope that this is the year it doesnt happen. Luckily, he will be fine and can always rely on his defense to get him by. Rowand, I didnt see that coming. He was absolutely scalding the ball in ST. Think ST lasted too long for him. All I'm saying is hang tight guys, its gonna be a fun season! Just don't get too bent over losses, cause guess what....EVERY team has them!! I know, its hard to believe.

QUOTE(winodj @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 09:07 AM) I'm offended that I'm just in the NIT of mods. I've been comin on strong lately....

indeed....lets focus on overcoming the pitching matchups and taking 2 out of 3 from these asshats. I wanna see you bring it tomorrow Jonny G!

I might get a bit torched for it, but man I'm tired of seeing 5 ribbons on someones car window. Great, you wan't everyone to think you are passionate about a cause...there are better, MUCH better ways to show it than putting f***ing gargantuan ribbons all over your back window. Go do something that might actually help teh cause...

TBH here, the pitching matchups are not in our favor at all...my heart says I'll be happy with a 2-1 series win here, but my head says to expect a 1-2 series loss.

WTF Heads....I'm the friggin play in game? Apu, lets protest...

enough guys...don't start bickering in a damn Gameday thread. Lets just all sit here and watch as we scoer a run in the 9th and win..

when you throw back to back middle-in fastballs at 85ish MPH...they are gonna go a LONG way the other way...

single under the SS's glove for Dye, maon on 1st, no one out and Howry in for the Injuns

Solid 1-2-3 8th for Hermanson goin to the bottom of the 8th, 5-2 Sox

Konerko flies out to center, inning over goin to the 8th, 5-2 Sox, Hermanson warming up

Iguchi to 2nd on a ground out by Everett...2 out, man on 2nd

Iguchi with a 1 out single to left

fly ball out tl left, inning over 5-2 Sox, goin to bottom of 7th

Sac Fly, Politte out. In comes Marte. 5-2, man on first, 2 out

Politte in for Cotts :puke I'm gonna close my eyes now, tell me when the inning is over.

well, he may play 3rd for the Dodgers, but he will FOREVER be immortalized in my heart as JosE6!

early on it was pretty evident that FG didnt have the best accuracy on his fastball. Yet he worked through it, got out of a couple jams, and put us in a position to win, which is all we can ask for when the bats arent working early on in a game.

2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT. V6 was my main priority when I went car shopping, damn tired of having no power in a car, but didnt want to take out a loan to put gas in it either.

Hmm, the only sickness I have that I just can't seem to shake is the one that makes me mind-numbingly Bored at work. I guess thats the price you pay for working 3rd shift technical support

Player AB R H RBI Valentin 4 1 3 4 Triple and a Homer for JosE6.... and error #2 in 2 games..

Agreed. Again, it isnt the Offense i have my early season concerns about. Its the right arms of Jose Contreras and El Duque that worry me the most.

Thanks Nuke! Heh, didn't wanna risk my sparkling 2-0 record when starting the Game thread I certainly hope Contreras can keep up his past ways against Cleveland. An opening series sweep would be huge, against a pretty solid Cleveland squad.

step back... breathe.... its 2 games guys....give the offense time to gel...i have no worries right now. If you want to worry about anything, worry about the arms of Contreras and El Duque...

more importantly here...my record when starting Gameday threads is now 2-0!! Let the Harris thing go guys, we won...thats what matters...now lets watch Minny lose 2 out of 3 to Seattle hopefully!
