I need to say this again the PBP on this game is high school level.

Floyd with 6 K's Crowd reaction is better than the PBP Come on Quentin

QUOTE (Gregory Pratt @ Jun 19, 2008 -> 02:27 PM) I've never understood the manner in which earned runs are assigned. 2 outs ground ball to third ozuna had an easy out and threw it away. Inning would have been over instead they continued to hit and scored 6 runs.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jun 19, 2008 -> 02:21 PM) You want to go into the crosstown series with your bullpen on short rest? It isnt as if the Pirates are pitching better. The Sox need to hope Gavin can hold it together for a little while Crosstown series means as much as this game does. There is a shot a winning this game not sure what is going to happen over the weekend. Also who has pitched more than one inning in the last four days? That was a sad little inning there.

Stolen bases and wild pitches are killing this team Crowd is cheering and rongey has no clue what happened on the K looking

McLouth and Sanchez are 5 for 6 with 6 RBI

Get the bullpen up. No use in having 12 pitchers if you are not going to use them.

2 Dye 4 Also the rehab assignment for Carmona has been put off as the hip was inflammed again not sure on his return

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jun 19, 2008 -> 02:01 PM) obviously the wrong thread/forum, but since it's a mid inning, has there been any word on Zambrano? Fathom is at the hospital awaiting the results along with about 15,000 other folks. LSD is closed due to the crowd outside Northwestern Memorial Hospital

Floyd's curve may have caught a later train and just showed up a little late. Nice K to end it.

Floyd seems like the kind of guy that get not get by without his best stuff. He is either really good or really bad.

Gotta get the pen up

Floyd only at 39 pitches and 0 ER. He has got to feeling good about himself right now.

Farmer with real bad PBP was the ball a blooper or hard hit?????? 1st and 3rd nobody out....

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 19, 2008 -> 01:28 PM) Gavin is crashing back down to earth. Ozuna is just such a worthless player. Due to a nice push from Ozuna. Floyd was struggling but should have gotten out of it unscathed. Real bad defensive play. On the radio they said Chavez would've been out at home if they communicated properly.

Going into Wrigley with some momentum. Get Russell up. 6-0 Pirates.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 19, 2008 -> 01:25 PM) Ozuna just needs to get released. Uribe is a superior defender, so why not have him at 3rd today? Exactly

f***ing ozuna

The f***ing catcher is running, throw to first come on ozuna wake up

Gavin struggling to throw strikes

Blanco and Soto both played last night The Sox should think about getting a guy that can catch and get Hall some more regualr AB's

So will Lou be berated like Dusty for leaving his pitcher to much and ruining him like Dusty was with the China Dolls. Same thing with Marmol. At this point in time they should shut him down for no other reason than to just be cautious.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 18, 2008 -> 02:28 PM) I'm sorry, I wasn't aware that taking the early lead and adding insurance runs later in close games had no inherent value. My bad. He's not good in close and late situations or with RISP & 2 out but the vast majority of his 14 homeruns this season have been of great value to the team. He carries the stigma of only homering when the Sox are up or down big and that's just not true at all. That's all I'm saying. OK Homeruns after the 6th in games up by 3 or less, tied or losing 0

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 18, 2008 -> 03:03 PM) #1: tied - 1st #2: down 5 - 3rd #3: tied - 1st #4: tied - 3rd #5: tied - 1st #6: up 2 - 5th #7: up 2 - 7th #8: up 1 - 2nd #9: up 4 - 7th #10: down 2 - 6th #11: down 2 - 4th #12: up 4 - 7th #13: tied - 2nd #14: up 7 - 7th Tie game: 5 Within 3 runs: 5 4+ run margin: 4 Tied or down after the 6th inning 0 Tied or down after the 3rd inning 2 That is where the debate is coming from. The stat 2 out RISP somethign like 2-24 was startling as well.

I have been mulling this trade over but would you trade Quentin for Carl Crawford?
