lawl, now that I look at the caption of the thread again, it makes it sound like Greg is telling "the sabes people" to do his bidding. xD

I'll be fine with Threets. Especially with Sale showing he can really pitch. However, we really need Santos to step up into Putz's role. And with tonight's outing, I don't know if he's helping anybody's confidence that he can.

If we keep chipping away at this lead like we did tonight, Manny would like mighty fine hitting third or cleanup.

Oliver got out of it. Amazing.

Get Gavin out of there, please!

Got him at home! Twins-Rangers still tied.

Twins are very likely to go ahead. f***ing Alexi Casilla.

Floyd was quite fortunate in this start.

Yeah, this game's going like crap.

As I said before, Guthrie's got it good against us. Bases loaded, nobody out and we get one run.

Omar, WTF?

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 08:37 PM) You're right, because it would be great to get this beat up bullpen even more innings to cover. Baltimore fans could argue Floyd threw at Jones after the HR. With the way Gavin has pitched tonight, getting tossed might not be such a bad idea.

Wow, Juan killed that one, but right at Markakis.

Ouch, that's not good.

Watch us hit into another DP for the tying run.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 08:32 PM) Where's Kotsay when you need a ground out to the right side? Yeah, seriously. I think the best idea would be to put Kotsay behind the team's best doubles hitter who hits lower than 6th. That would maximize the production of his outs.

Gavin's been real close to giving up a ton of home runs this game.

Markakis nearly golfed that one out.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 08:17 PM) and don't forget the atom ball - that dude has hit some ROPES this season Which he is no longer doing. If he was getting unlucky that would be one thing. But his power has disappeared.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 08:15 PM) 2-1 after the THIRD double play in 4 innings. This is what happens when you can't hit a pitcher to save your life. You get hits when he's struggling, but he somehow pitches out of trouble.

At least we're on the board.

Here we go.

Rios' slump is really making his numbers look depressing. At least compared to what it was earlier in the year. The hit he just got is the perfect example of what he's been doing since July. He's not hitting the ball with much authority.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 08:05 PM) Shouldn't Konerko have gone for the out at home there? Jones is too fast. Plus, if you do that, you'll really be risking it. If he doesn't get Jones out, a big inning would probably result from it.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 08:04 PM) Simple question: Am I the only one that thinks spending 4 million on Manny would be an absolute waste of money? It depends on whether or not we're still in it in September.
