farmio said it is a nice round 20 DPs for Konerko but who's counting? kudos again to Rowand like his energy

i think the excuse is the angels have an indoor cage for the visiting team frank can 'hit' while he sits he allegedly is going to play first base in Texas

keep it going Tony G

i'll settle for the single -- and a steal of second A R

aaron rowand man of the night and i believe he leads off make it a double, A R

maybe buehrle can help cotts chill -- and throw a few more strikes. after he outpitches Washburn tonight, of course

manuel just said on the radio Cotts gets another chance Sunday in Texas

all-time bevington favorite moment? went to the mound to make a pitching change. One problem, terry. Nobody was warming up. get outta town, Bevo.

bruce levine just said on the radio pre-game show that Paniagua will sign after the pan-am games and report to Charlotte said he has recovered from a back injury and his fastball is back to 93-mph, slider at 88., i assume he'll be in chicago by September. if he's healthy, he'll help. liked him a lot when he was with seattle

need to hope yankees get into kc bullpen that always gives us hope

on the same page capn12 obviously koch has talent it was also obvious something had/has to be wrong. he wasn't getting anybody out. Too many times, even his outs were hit really hard. If he is badly hurt, I just wish he would have been honest about it earlier in the season. Then the team could have made some kind of move to get another pitcher. maybe one of these guys from the minors -- Porzio, Ginter, Cotts, now Adkins, not to mention Sanders or Stewart -- will deliver for seven weeks. But the odds are against it. I believe the best we can hope for is Wright will draw confidence from last night and pitches at least at the level he pitched last season. Even though his ERA was high, he was on often enough to win 14 games.

no stick, no future, no febles for me if they're not going to resign Robbie, I'd rather see Willie Harris get a legit chance. Need to find out if he can A) play the position; B) get on base and C) steal 40-50 bases.

john snyder's feelings are hurt that he wasn't mentioned. what year was that when he was like 6-1 and discussed as a potential all-star? 1999, I believe. And, of course, little Scottie Eyre, who got summoned to anaheim to start after the White Flag Trades saw Castillo pitch for Charlotte this year. he makes Ted Washington and Keith Traylor look like Robbie Alomar

no surprise Koch is hurt. Oakland pitched him into the ground last season. They did it with Isringhausen -- and they'll do it with Foulke this year, especially in his Walk Year. nearly 94 innings in 84 games for the As in 2002. Marte had 60 innings last year, Osuna 67 and Foulke 77. Plus, Koch pitched in the post-season. He had elbow surgery in 1997 and might have had it at Clemson. No way 15 days fixes thing. My guess is he'll need more surgery. As for Adkins/Ginter, I like Ginter, but he always looks scared as heck when he gets called up. And we've been trying to get him into the pen since 2000!!! didn't he just give up a grand slam to Olerud in Seattle after he kept falling behind in the count. adkins started slow, but he's gotten his era down under 4 in a terrible pitcher's park in Charlotte. He's another guy who had elbow surgery, but for middle relief, why not?

bad night turned out ok. think of how much worse it would have been if the Sox had lost the game -- and the chance to make up ground on KC and Minny. At least now he should be able to laugh about it and relax a bit. to me, the problem was Cotts initially couldn't get his curve or change over. So he was just throwing fastballs. He's smart enough to realize you can't do that against good hitters -- at any level. So he seemd to try to overcompensate by throwing as hard as he could. he wasn't finishing his delivery and consistently left the ball high and outside. is that fixable? Sure. Is it fixable in the middle of a big-league pennant race? Not so sure.

konerko couldn't beat Moose Skowron -- today

who starts sunday nite in Texas? Wright? or Cotts?

need danny wright to get the bullpen into the sixth. the seventh would be better, but i'm not greedy

Sandy "Wheels" Alomar

7 ain't gonna do it 9 or 10 more likely

gotta score off Glover everybody else has

take 6-2, but Sox have left 30 men on base in this series already ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

good job konerko let's get at least one more, jose
