QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 17, 2008 -> 12:08 PM) I hope the poster that predicted the Mariners would win 2 of 3 doesn't quit his day job. who said they would win 2 of 3?

lets get #70 today...

Danks is probably the only pitcher in our starting rotation that could get out of a jam like that, though he definitely had some help. Alexei made that routine grounder interesting, as he usually does

NICE DP. SUCK IT UP JOHN, MAKE YOUR PITCHES AND ESCAPE THIS BLACKHOLE OF AN INNING.

juiced, 0 outs danks better dig deep into his soul if he wants to get out of this jam.

nice play swish. not sure if i'll be upset that i can't watch the rest of this game if it starts looking like yesterday

we like to get a walk and hit in the same inning, and then leave the guy at 2nd

automatic 3 lost games at the dome? i don't think so, at most we'll lose 2/3, but i do not see a sweep, not even.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 15, 2008 -> 10:52 PM) Considering how awful the Sox have looked at the Twinkie Dome this season, my philosophy is we're 3 games back in the standings but we don't play the Twins again this year. NEXT 4 SERIES FOR SOX & TWINKIES MY PREDICTIONS! SOX & TWINS TIE: 68-53 (15/.500) 121 games W:WINS GP:GAMES PLAYED CHICAGO (W/GP) 3 OAK ROAD(2/3)+1 3 SEA HOME(3/3)+3 3 TB HOME(2/3)+1 4 BAL ROAD(2/4)+0 9-4 MINNESOTA (W/GP) 3 SEA HOME(2/3)+1 3 OAK HOME(2/3)+1 4 LAA ROAD(1/4)-2 3 SEA ROAD(2/3)+1 7-6 SOX UP 2 GAMES DONT STOP BELIEVIN' :gosox3:

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Aug 15, 2008 -> 10:50 PM) This team played s***ty the whole game minus the 1st inning. It was too bad Uribe couldn't catch the ball because it really screwed over Floyd. Alexei getting thrown out on the bases twice. Anderson getting caught sleeping and not scoring when he probably should have, granted it was an awesome throw to gun him down. Floyd pitched well, Dotel failed us big time. Thornton should've been left in the game. He had a stuff and a presense tonight that would've done a lot better than Dotel. We deserved to lose this game. alexei is such a stupid baserunner, and I mean stupid in the most literal sense. he lacks any intelligence on the basepaths, how many times has he been EASILY picked off or thrown out this year, he just cannot properly read a pitcher to get good leads or good jumps, just f***ing brutal on the bases at least he can get ON base, something someone like Owens never shown he could do i still want alexei batting higher in the order, since he'd drive in a s***load of runs due to his high batting average (he'd be knocking guys in, vs moving them over with a BB) oh well, get them tomorrow John

QUOTE (daa84 @ Aug 15, 2008 -> 10:50 PM) just saw the replay....it was a hanging slider for sure....bad execution in that situation...either way i think you gotta walk kurt and patterson and take your shot with ellis dotel gives up a lot of game-tying/game winning homeruns.. if i'm wrong, then it sure does seem like he does i'd have to go back and look up the amount of times he's given up the lead with a longball, i can remember a few times off the top of my head is this on AJ, or on Dotel for not shaking him off, or on Dotel for bad location? hmm..

i'll say it again THE TWINS ARE TERRIBLE ON THE ROAD, even against s*** teams. just like we are! this division will be wrapped up by whichever team plays the best on their remaining road games, and i'll eat my crow when the season ends if it doesn't turn out that way

QUOTE (jeffthedude @ Aug 15, 2008 -> 10:46 PM) Don't worry about Minnesota, we're going to get swept by Oakland here so they can do the honors of knocking us out. We won't be anywhere near first place this time next month. Our division is a one-team race. the twins lost two of three in seattle, chill out man, as bad as you think we are, they're JUST AS BAD we're tied for a pretty good reason

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 15, 2008 -> 10:44 PM) Nice pitch....high fastball in a sac fly situation. What a terrible job by AJP tonight. either our pitchers don't throw what AJ calls or, the more likely option, AJ is terrible at calling a game against bad hitters like Jack Cust, Kurt Suzuki, etc. so many meatballs, what the f*** AJ?

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Aug 15, 2008 -> 10:42 PM) Octavio Dotel says hi. uh, we already used him ballgame.

you know you're playing like poopoo when you burn out your bullpen against the A's, haha 4-27? that does not apply to teams like the white sox. time after time, we make bad teams look good (granted, the twins lost 2 of 3 in seattle. they're not immune from this either)

at least carrasco won't get the loss, he doesn't deserve it horasheeo, nice choke job.

wish we had someone in our pen that could strike someone out, now that a runner is at 3rd base

LOL Leadoff double choke choke choke choke.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Aug 15, 2008 -> 10:34 PM) I love when we talk about building teams that are good at fundamentals, and keep signing and trading for guys who need to use the Fundamentals deck in left field at the Cell. the irony in that statement, isn't that they use the fundamentals deck. they "try" to use it, haha

i have a terrible feeling about the bottom of the 9th, anyone else?

not sure i understood uribe taking a 2-0 pitch all the way, unreal

what a joke, if there ever was a person on this team that i would never allow to steal a base, it would be Alexei, he's just terrible at it, i'm surprised he has 9 on the year
