GAME THREAD: White @ Red
QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 08:18 PM) Grounder to 3rd base, double off the LF wall (almost out at 2nd base), K, pop up on infield. That's my 9th inning prediction. grounder to short, pop up to infielder. Close, but no cigar.

Javy must be pretty pissed at the offense right now. To be fair, he did this to them all year by blowing any lead they gave him.

And the hit of the game for the Sox is a meaningless single...pathetic. Nice little bloop there.

Timlin can't find the zone (probably can't get a grip on the ball). this will be their last chance, better score in this inning boys.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 07:57 PM) But wait a second, in Ozzies first press conference he said we would play grinderball, and if you didnt play baseball the right way you would sit no matter who you are. That he would motivate the players, and play aggressive baseball the right way. His philosophy has changed from "bust your ass and make it happen" to "if it don't work, try again. And again. And again, and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again.....just make damn sure you never change."

Pablo! Podsednik would have let that one roll to the wall while trotting over to it.

And That's a White Sox Loser
Well, at least the defense didn't come back to bite them in the ass, so Ozzie can still feel confident about his lineup moves. White Sox won't make the playoffs, and nor do they deserve to. They'd just embarass themselves.

Mack does not look very happy or comfortable out there.

Sox Lose Series to KC 9/3/06
QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 04:33 PM) I would say Ozzie has done some really stupid things this year, but I don't think that makes him a bad manager overall. Kenny has done some bad moves (or non-moves) this year, but I consider him a really good GM. We have some bad players on this team, but the overall talent level is still very good. This is what happens if a team comes up short from making the playoffs. The thing is that Ozzie continuely makes the same dumb moves. No one things Mack should play CF, not even Mack himself. He's been awful out there all season, and he could really be used in LF instead. Instead, Ozzie continues to play his retarded match-up games that never work and trot Mack out there for GG-caliber Anderson.

High gas prices.
The market just can't maintain $70+/barrel. There isn't much we can do for short-term demand, but we've all seen how the higher gas prices have greatly increased talks about hybrid cars, E-85, alternative power sources, cutting back, etc. etc. Mid-range and long-term demand is a lot more elastic than the short-term for oil.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 1, 2006 -> 10:30 PM) I hate Pods, and my hatred would be much less if he showed some hustle on the field. If everyone says he's the catalyst, then his lack of intensity is even more disturbing. You can be a catalyst for a bad reaction too...

QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Sep 1, 2006 -> 10:25 PM) Grounding out weakly to the left side. Flying out weakly to the left side. Striking out looking. Misplaying fly balls. Do I have to keep going? Ha. Zing!
