QUOTE(S720 @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 09:17 PM) I really think it IS time for Cotts to be promoted to take Duque's place. He has been light out lately. Perhaps, sending Duque to the bullpen will help him and our team in a long run. I don't know! We haven't been playing good the past few games. I hope your joking, cotts is not even clsoe to being stretched out. It won't happen.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 09:09 PM) But...but...but....we have the best record in baseball. We're going to need new guys to pick it up, because a lot of the players that were carrying us earlier in the season are struggling. Iguchi's batting average has been slowly fading for a month now, and Contreras and Hermanson have struggled recently. Uribe looks to be coming out of his slump, which will help. I got your humor, although I am probably the most negative person on this board, therefore I have aways and will always back a trade, and for what its worth I hate the minor league players, so they can trade anyone down there, and I won't give a crap. get to the series.

you know I think we are ready for a trade to add a jolt to the club. Its time.

QUOTE(ottawa_sox @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 09:05 PM) Only a tie for the moment. Ray-Ray made an error. Yea saw that.

twins go up

personally this is game I would like to see if marte is healthy. He has not pitched in a while, and we are out of this game. Put him in there for a couple of batters.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 08:54 PM) quickman....you know I'm not that stupid to think of Crede as being in the same planet as Pujols. It was just a joke. Crede and 3rd baseman is not the position that I'm worried about with the Sox now. 5th starter and righty reliever seems like it might be a serious problem for the rest of the year. yep agreed

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 08:49 PM) So could Albert Pujols. I'm not going to b**** about Crede when he's actually producing at the plate now. stop it he is not pujols, He is a 250 hitter. thats it. done.

twins rallying

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 08:46 PM) When he's been batting over .300 with 4 homers this month. Also, his defense has been outstanding. I'm not a fan of Crede, but he's the least of our problems right now. He is streaky, he could go into a 3-40 slump starting tonight.

we won't score, the Guch will strike out

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 08:42 PM) Duque's ERA is now up to 4.88. With Viz and Crede looking better, I'm of the opinion now that starting pitcher is our biggest priority to trade for. When did Crede get Better?

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 08:40 PM) Maybe Ozzie should stick with what's worked, and have AJP catch Contreras, and Widger catch for Duque. AJP and Duque never seem to work well together, while we all know the numbers of Contreras with each catcher. as i have been on record I think Ozzie sucks with game day strategy. He will get better..I hope

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 08:37 PM) 3-1, our good friend Ray Durham just homered. damn you mean theya re getting to santanna tonight?

Listen I don't mind marching him out there every 5 days, I do care that Ozzie has no feel. the sox tied it up, and Elduque's pitch count was in the 80's. They just came off a killing yesterday and everything is flying out of the park. As soon as they scored he should have been pulled to keep it a one run game.

well, we come home and lose two straight due to our pitchers. Its just nuts. This is getting out of hand right now. What the hell is Ozzie thinking

again he puts us in ahole. The guy is just not on lately. Way too many pitches, and he walks alot. He is also getting pounded.

they will quickly need to decide how long they will go with El Duque tonight. We cannot continue to dig ourselves in a hole.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 08:23 PM) Good point. These 2 need to be broken apart in the rotation. Definitely the 2 weakest links in the chain. they will look at this at all star break.

aarron is on vacation tonight

duque seems like he throws a curve ball every pitch. Tough inning. I hope we can get one back quick, before vasquez settles down.

El duque is El doney

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 08:09 PM) 2 runs in 4 innings against Santana. With the Giants mediocre bullpen, 2 runs wont be enough against the Twins. I didn't say the game was over I said they were getting to santanna. My god everybody is so tight. Let me say this then The twins will win.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 08:08 PM) They have 2 runs in four innings on four hits. I wouldn't call that getting to him. That's like saying we are getting to Vasquez. Ok no problem disregard, Quick note: they are not getting to santanna.

Quick note: giants are getting to santanna tonight
