June 23, 200520 yr QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Jun 22, 2005 -> 08:42 PM) Actually, if the Twins keep losing, they'll improve their chances of taking this division. If we ever grow overconfident about them or write them off, BAM, they'll crush us. The Twins are not human, folks; one guy goes down, another comes up from the minor leagues and hits .400 or becomes an elite pitcher in his first year. They are a machine. They do not make many mistakes. We must take maximum advantage of every mistake they make; that is the only way to beat them, given the disadvantage of being human. Ozzie will never allow this team to get cocky or overcofident. He keeps them focusing on winnings series. If this team gets an even bigger lead in the division I gaurantee Ozzie won't pull a Manuael and start resting players so that they'll be rusty in the playoffs.
June 23, 200520 yr oh yeah.. defense has been horrible The offense, yeah they havent been scoring runs, but the Sox dont score a lot of runs either and they have the best record in baseball <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actually, we DO score runs. We are 7th in the MLB in runs scored... http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/stats/aggreg...batting&group=9 The Twins are 17th.

They have scored atleast 4 runs in every game. 12-6 6-0 5-3 4-3 11-8 5-1 5-1 48 runs for the Sox over their last 7 games. Thats 6.86 runs per game. Not bad at all. Funny how this winning streak/offensive explosion started after that 10 run inning against Arizona, we all knew it was a huge uplifting game but this is just awesome.

But that stat surprises me Well the thing is, the White Sox usually get the runs they need. They usually don't go above and beyond like they used to and then get shut out the next night. We constantly score in every game. It adds up.

Funny how this winning streak/offensive explosion started after that 10 run inning against Arizona, we all knew it was a huge uplifting game but this is just awesome. True about the offense (and it's wonderful to see) but also check the runs allowed, that's 5 good-to-great pitching/defense games out of 7, with the other 2 being the 10-run game (in which our bullpen was great) and BMAC's game (in which our bullpen minus Jizzcan was great) I'm going to spend all day tomorrow it keeps up over the weekend. As we're demoralizing Twins fans, it would be great to punish Flubs fans as well.
June 23, 200520 yr The Twins' defense really does suck... "Nook Logan reaches on force attempt, fielding error by third baseman Michael Cuddyer. Chris Shelton to 2nd."
June 23, 200520 yr QUOTE(soxman352000 @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 08:00 PM) f*** THE TWINS we could use a f*** the twins smiley
June 23, 200520 yr Bases are loaded. Wow. What happened to Romero?? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He just gave up a run. Edited June 23, 200520 yr by Jabroni
June 23, 200520 yr QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Jun 22, 2005 -> 09:05 PM) Ah, Placido Polanco. *sniff* What could have been.... Hey, at least we can be thankful that he didn't go to a contender! HAHAHAHA, Tigers suck!!!!!!!!!!!
June 23, 200520 yr Romero leaves the bases loaded allowing just one run. The Twinkies have 9 outs in order to be 10 games out of 1st place.
June 23, 200520 yr Foulke is trying his hardest to blow the game in the 8th inning. Indians have runners at 2nd and 3rd with 2 outs now. Ahhh, he gets the third out. Phew. Edited June 23, 200520 yr by Jabroni
June 23, 200520 yr Jabroni, that's a good thing. I rather have to face Cleveland in the playoffs. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, I guess. Although they DO have a decent rotation and a really good bullpen.
June 23, 200520 yr QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 22, 2005 -> 10:14 PM) Yeah, I guess. Although they DO have a decent rotation and a really good bullpen. Their pen is good except for this guy, Bob "Clubhouse Buffet" Wickman, who will promptly give Boston the game right here.
June 23, 200520 yr QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 22, 2005 -> 08:14 PM) Yeah, I guess. Although they DO have a decent rotation and a really good bullpen. Boston with Schilling has a better rotation, playoff experience and a better offense.
