Don't get your hopes up.  I've heard nothing to suggest he'll be gone.  Hell, he's Ozzie's first choice off the bench.

 

A fact which is totally beyond me when Carl Everett is sitting there.

 

Your number 2 guy in RBI's or a guy hitting below .200. Who would you pick?

Haha, Finley didn't know how many outs there were. Great job by Buehrle. It's Hermanson's game now.

Buehrle at 91 pitches.....does he stay in???

Well, I'll be damned :banghead

i believe Hawk and DJ just said Frank has a problem with a hip flexor.

 

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

the continuing decline of Mark Buerhle

ESPN reporting Frank out with a hip flexor strain.

 

Damnit!

how serious is this frank injury?

s***. Double s***.

 

Frank getting injured right away is NOT what we needed.

 

/obvious statement

That was close, I thought it had a chance to get out.  Marte should be in to face Anderson here.

 

Buehlre luckily escaped this inning.

 

Regardless of pitch count, Buehrle should not begin the 9th inning. 4th time around for these Angels, who have taken their hacks against Mark, spells trouble.

I'm guessing with the upcoming roster move we may have seen the last of Timo for a while.

 

We've already thought that. It didn't happen then, hopefully it does now.

MB, this one's for you!

 

Still like the shadow argument that DJ threw out there.

Note to those saying many posters here are too negative after losses. Even if the Sox hang on to win this game, I will still be pissed. With the exception of Buehrle, this has just been a pathetic effort.

how serious is this frank injury?

 

It's not an injury that feels good. When you're the size of Thomas, you're not going to heal very quickly. I bet we saw the last of Frank for the next 4-5 days, if not more.

Molina, rivera, molina.

 

who gets the ninth?

 

Buehrle or Hermie?

 

Make your call.

 

I say Hermie.

it can toy with your sight, but it's not like the ball disappears either.

Well, it was nice of him to make an appearance.

Any chance taking him out is just precautionary?

EXACTLY! That's what a lot of us have been trying to say. There are some serious issues on this team right now, and even if you win one game, it doesn't mean they're gone. Not to mention the fact that a lot of us questioned whether or not we could count on Thomas to stay healthy, and it took him one time running on the bases to get hurt again.

What lefties do the halos have on the bench?

 

Erstad.

 

DaVanon, I think.

I meant the excuse DJ made for pulling Frank.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Agreed.

Molina, rivera, molina.

Buehrle or Hermie?

I say Hermie.

 

After getting through the heart of that order in the 8th...I give it to Buehrle unless someoen gets on.

Again, Hermanson.

 

Angels have hit Mark hard these last few innings. Long, deep flies.
