Dick Allen

Pods doesn't have lightning speed in the field. He is very catious going after flyballs.

Duque warming is stupid. The Angels lit him up this season.

Let's get Politte and Cotts warmed up.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 09:01 PM) LOL @ Buck...."And Neal Cotts can tell all of the other pitchers in the bullpen what it was like to pitch in the ALCS...." For as annoying as Buck can be, he does have some clever lines every now and then.

Thought he was being yanked.

Garcia was awesome.

QUOTE(BigEdWalsh @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 08:59 PM) And 1-16!! His one hit was a scratch infield hit.

Guerrero hits more grounders to SS and 3B than Rowand.

QUOTE(Wanne @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 08:56 PM) I'd have like to have seen a suicide with Gooch up....WHY NOT!?!? That is considered bush league at this stage. It might have gotten Dye a ball in the earhole.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 08:55 PM) We're gonna regret not scoring that run from 3rd. If you had a 9 run pool, most definitely.

The one problem and its a problem I would love to have every October, with the lack of bullpen work, if the Sox somehow won tomorrow and the bullpen didn't get much work, the WS doesn't start until a week from tonight, so some of these guys wouldn't have seen the mound in 3 weeks.

I leave Freddy in for Vlad, just to try to get him to hit another grounder, and make him think about it for 24 hours. A homer off a rusty pitcher could get him going. As good as this series looks, a break could turn it all around. The Angels did beat the Sox 5 times in a row at USCF this season.

I know they usually let that go, but it should be called like it just was.

What about Hermy? He didn't even pitch against Boston.

Whether they bring anyone in or not, I just hope they totally shut them down and keep them demoralized. Scoring a few runs the last couple innings may put their minds in a better place tomorrow. Kick em while they're down.

AJ would be the first to say that was pitiful.

OMG an Aaron Rowand sighting. Things are getting world serious.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 08:30 PM) Antonio Osuna. He's Mr. Pessimism. Maybe he's a genius using reverse psychology.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 08:29 PM) Garcia needs one more inning and we don't need to relive the Marte experience. Ozzie isn't crazy enough to put in Marte don't you think?Hopefully he is just getting some work in.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 08:23 PM) You're not a fan of Ozzie? My past posts indicate why. He was exceptional in the Boston series though, and I do appreciate the playoff performance thus far.

I'm no fan of Ozzie, but I do like how he pronounces "little monkey"

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 08:20 PM) If these calls were going against us, we'd be like Angel fans That's a given, but its nice to be on this side of things for a change. I do think if we were on the other side and our offense had been performing like the Angels has been, we would be wise enough to know we would probably be losing anyway.

QUOTE(fathom @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 08:18 PM) Why are we complaining about the calls so much? They missed some of them, but that happens a lot in baseball. Umps very rarely call a guy out in that Pods situation from this inning. We just have to make sure we capitalize on these breaks, and win this f***ing game. That's right. Buck and McCarver didn't question the call until they saw the replay. They never even mentioned it was close. Calls go against every team.

QUOTE(SadChiSoxFanOptimist @ Oct 15, 2005 -> 08:13 PM) Colon can't pitch cause he's too damn fat. finger ! Thank God we couldn't afford him and had to settle for our top 4 : Scotty P on base again!! Looks like overcompensating for his bad back f***ed up his shoulder. His elbow isn't supposed to be in stellar shape either.

Its time for the Sox to light this dope up.
