QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 29, 2008 -> 06:48 PM) Don't we have something like 18 games left against teams above .500, the most in baseball? something like that, though my comment had nothing to do w/ our remaining schedule

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Aug 29, 2008 -> 06:46 PM) that,my freind is where we are fukked,we can t hit dice k nor Beckett,damn,he's mowing down our hitters,don t quite get how dice k is so hard to hit he has like 4 or 5 pitches, you basically have to guess right, or... god forbid understand the count and anticipate if the next pitch is going to be a ball or strike dice-k is known for walking a lot of batters, more often than not if you're in an 0-2 count, he'll throw junk or fastballs out of the zone/busted inside, until you work him to 3-2 and then.. he'll bring the heat (95mph fastball to paulie on 3-2, called.)

at least we have a winning record against the bad teams?

2-0 as farmer says "A bloop and a blast" is what we need

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Aug 29, 2008 -> 06:23 PM) I think we will need to score some runs to win this game. it'd be nice to string some hits together but Dice-K seems to know exactly what the weaknesses of our hitters are

daisuke is going to probably throw a complete game at this point, or pretty close if we don't clobber some longballs here shortly, this game is pretty much over imo

if we can't hit homeruns, we dont win as proven all season long we need some guys to step up.

this team is funny.

would be nice to get alexei into scoring position

QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Aug 29, 2008 -> 05:38 PM) Let me propose this. Some of those plays Joe is diving on Juan was making without the diving. I just think Uribe can read the ball off the bat a bit better than Joe can, which gives him better jumps

OMG @ THAT 0-2 STRIKE TO SWISHER. WOW.

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Aug 29, 2008 -> 05:16 PM) The Boston announcers totally missed what a horrible play that was by Crede. What is Hawk saying??? it was DJ that commented on it, he said "That ball has to come to the plate" which is 100% true

wow, 1 run after bases juiced 0 outs? this is not the same boston team as last year, that's for sure.

POP UP, can we get the 3rd out before letting a run score?

crede is a f***ing moron. get uribe out there.

popup would be nice, but we never get those breaks

1-2 curveball when he hasn't thrown that pitch a single time, and somehow ortiz knew it was coming.

nice pitch, javy.

FU Ellsbury.

looks like we won't be facing beckett again http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20...sp&c_id=mlb

i think the twins and rays are the sox kryptonite at this point, if i remember we split against the angels in their park, and lost 2 really close games at the cell.. i think danks pitched one of those games, and was pretty good look at non-turf teams records on turf, it's hilarious the advantage the rays/twins have in their home parks, except for texas (and their grass is damn near turf-like) and i think LAA, pretty much every AL team struggles on turf

Cub fan @ espn forums: LOL

over these last 30 games, we need to increase our record against teams .500 or better we're sitting at 18-25 right now, not very good at all. *TB 4-6 *BOS 2-2 *NYY 1-2 *TOR 0-4 *MIN 8-7 *LAA 3-4

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 27, 2008 -> 07:42 AM) Fire Greg Walker. this.team.is.dead. i'm pretty sure i was one of the only, if not the only person advocating for letting walker keep his job

first time i've seen "Gardenwizard" or "Garden Gnome" in reference to gardenhire last night on a few other forums, i bust out laughing after i read that
