Ramirez, yes. Farmer trying to tell jokes while the play is going on.... 1-0 nice job Juan Pierre's arm that's a a joke all to itself

QUOTE (kane0730 @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 02:23 PM) Well, this game could be over in a hurry. At least his ERA will not impacted.... Nice inning but unless something happens the stolen bases are going to cost this team Jason Marquis and Eric Patterson coming back down to earth

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 02:20 PM) At some point this team needs to learn to hold runners on or throw a runner out......really sad. really really sad

Error and Walk....... 1st and 2nd nobody out deja vu all over again.

At some point this team needs to learn to hold runners on or throw a runner out......really sad.

Ah Pierre with a hit to become a triple due to Crede who is actually wearing the gold glove.

Gave Kershaw the opportunity to be wild and get a good look at him........ Cabrera 3 pitches Anderson 1 pitch Quentin 2 pitches Defense looking good already. How does this team struggle with pop-ups christ.

QUOTE (JorgeFabregas @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 02:03 PM) New Gameday is trippy. Gameday is terrible it updates every 5 minutes it seems.

Anyone think Guillen is giving Anderson a shot a doing something before possibly being sent down? A-lot easier to hit in front of Quentin than the pitcher. Also Wise will get the next two starts and then I believe Konerko can come off the DL Sunday against Mashall no? I think it is a mirror performance to last night as the bats were cold for a nice spell Tuesday and I think they will today as well against a leftie they have never faced. His ability and past history is no indication to what he is capable of....see last night. 6-1 Dodgers

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 23, 2008 -> 10:37 AM) Looking at this Dodgers series, I think we should tinker the pitching staff a little bit. Contreras had probably the worst outing of his career vs. the Cubs on Saturday, why let him face them again? As the rotation stands right now. Buehrle pitches on Tuesday. Floyd on Wednesday, and Danks on Thursday. I'm thinking we should pitch Contreras on Thursday because of the day off today. Contreras would face a non-potent Dodgers offense and Danks will once again pitch against the Cubs. Hopefully, Ozzie leaves him in longer this time. Just my 2 cents, Contreras could be dominant on Friday, but I'd like to see Danks in there instead. I agree 100%. It makes to much sense to actually do though.

Crede and Anderson have had worse at-bats than Danks today. Crede is unable to hit LHP for some reason and Anderson has been given a great opportunity and is unable to take advantage of it. Yesterday and today have been terrible for him.

Bet Wise or Ramirez are in center tomorrow and Sunday and in LA.

Anderson needs to jump on anything close here.

Lilly is actually throwing well when he has to.

f***in Crede terrible day at the plate embarrassing.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 03:05 PM) good job Danks. Pitcher spot to leadoff next inning, let's hope it's not Lily because the Sox drive him from the game here! Probably won't be anyway. The numbers on the Sox pen are good. Lou can't wait until late in the game.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 03:02 PM) Ask and ye shall receive. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/stats/aggreg...ng&type=reg Thanks, I guess, that is ugly. You see why the Cards and Twins are hanging in there. The Pirates?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 03:01 PM) Those "Late game dramatics" we keep seeing from the Cubs have happened against teams that don't have Linebrink, Jenks, Thor, Dotel, Logan, and Masset waiting on them. Compare what they did to the Colorado pen and what he Sox did. For some reason late games at home treat the cubs just fine.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 02:58 PM) I'd like to get a 2 out hit with RISP today guys. Think we have had 3 shots in 4 innings. Yep Anderson, Crede and Dye. What is the Sox average with 2 out RISP as compared to the rest of the league? cub took advantage of their one opportunity Sox are blowing their's.

Gotta admit the cubs are very selective, can work the count and seem to understand what a pitcher is doing and how to exploit it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 02:46 PM) 68 pitches for Lilly through 4. That inning gave him a shot at going 6. He attacked the last two hitters to conserve his pitch count good veteran approach. The next inning is huge as they needot work him over. Come on Danks.

OK Danks get back at it.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 02:41 PM) I was gonna post that I don't see a hole in Fukudome's swing, than Danksy K's him on 3 pitches. Fukodome is a really poor man's Ichiro. He is not nearly the hitter. I think teams will learn to get him out at a greater clip. In three years Ramirez will prove to be a better pick-up for the Sox.

Crede not showing anything today. Need better at-bats.

Make it be a strike Joe
