Peavy took one off the throwing elbow tonight, but he should be OK, and may pitch Saturday in NY.

"that's another $95 bill"

One thing I've noticed about Kotsay is he's not very selective.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 24, 2009 -> 09:23 PM) Hopefully Kotsay hits for Nix who cant hit. Then put LIllicurse out there for the defense. And he can fumble it and throw it away like he did yesterday. For the love of God, what does Brent Lillibridge have to show the White Sox to prove he's not a major league baseball player?

Scalded.

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Aug 24, 2009 -> 09:19 PM) With night's like tonight I seriously can't put my mind around this team exiting the road trip with anything more than 3 wins. Even when our offense is on, like tonight, we'll have to worry about the starting pitching AND the bullpen. Thornton can't pitch every game, and neither can Floyd. We'll have to worry about Buehrle pitching like a man again, Danks' finger, and whatever the hell Garcia will provide tomorrow. Speaking of Garcia, expect him to pitch 5 innings no matter what. It could very well be another 10+ run game. If they can't beat these teams at least some of the time this roadtrip, they probably wouldn't do much if they made the playoffs anyway. I just wonder if they come back significantly under .500.

"that's trouble" "Carlos, Carlos.....can't make the play"

"that'll be an erra" "get foul, fair ball"

If Hawk ever said Nix sucks it up like he says Gordon sucks it up, it would take on an entirely different meaning.

QUOTE (b-Rye @ Aug 24, 2009 -> 08:35 PM) "That'll be an error on Nix" "Pods gets picked off again" "I wish I could cuss right now" "STRETCH!!! It won't." "I don't know what Alexai's doin out there" "The hit by pitch from Contreras" "Linebrink comes on" and we'll be back "And he throws it away!" "High fly ball" I think he's getting frustrated too.

"He blew the call" "we gave them x gift runs" "that's a strike for their pitchers" "that's a homer call" "stay fair, stay fair, it won't" "dadgummit"

1/30th of a second.

I wouldn't mind seeing Rios PR for Dye here.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 24, 2009 -> 08:50 PM) why anyone would walk JD right now, i have no idea; but Jim - we need a hero Sometimes guys can't throw strikes to save their lives. The Red Sox pitching staff has been giving up a lot of runs often lately.

Francona was Michael Jordan's manager in Birmingham.

Unless Pods does something beyond stupid, Thome is going to get a shot here, and I hope he hits a flyball deep to LF.

Its time JD started earning his money again.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Aug 24, 2009 -> 08:45 PM) Pods is older and daintier now. I think he should take a shorter lead. He wouldn't be thinking about getting back as much.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Aug 24, 2009 -> 08:44 PM) pods gets picked off in 3....2....1.... When he steals, how many times is he in easily? Its very rare. When he was with Milwaukee he had a great pct.

Beckham needs to take one for the team.

Papi needs steroids.

Made him look foolish.

The problem is Williams is apt to show why he hasn't had much of a career.

With the Sox roster, I believe this is the correct move unless Dotel has a nice history against Ortiz.
