greg775 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Adkins does blow. We is in a little bit of a slump. Yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Adkins has done nothing this season to deserve to be on the MLB roster. I understand wanting to have a long reliever on the team, but you don't need someone on the roster who can't even get AAA hitters out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jphat007 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 If we don't score next inning the Minnesota bullpen would have pitched a shutout since Timo's hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jphat007 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Oh well. We're still 11 games up and our first 4 game losing streak comes in mid August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're definately sucking right now. There isn't any question about that. Our offense is awful. Still, we're gonna win the division. The Twins are still like 13 games out.

ChiSox_Sonix Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Adkins does not deserve to be here. Period. I dunno who was behind the call up, KW or Ozzie but what could they have seen in a guy struggling in AAA that warranted a call up? I'll give taking him over Baj b/c of the long reliever thing but over Diaz or Munoz? No way. Adkins didnt only lose this game for us. The fact that our offense only scored 4 runs in 14 innings is pathetic. But the bright side is our pen did a hell of a job. Its a shame Adkins had to ruin that. Now we get to seee Nathan in the bottom half, leaving our chance of pulling this game out at a minimum. I really cant understand why he was ever called up.

elrockinMT Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I am adiehard. I think we will win and go to the playoffs. But, the awful truth right now is we aren't playing like a championship team and haven't for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 The thing is, Adkins can't even get out minor league hitters. I think many on here will get their wish, as Baj will be called up tonight and Adkins sent down in order to get a fresh arm with the club. Hey Hawk, shove the "where would he play" up your f***ing ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 We really need to win tomorrow. I could be wrong but I don't think tonight's game is gonna end in a win. It's just so frustrating to always lose tough games to the Twins. This always happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Great, Hawk's going to be b****ing about the umps for a week now. Adkins blows....when everyone knows he's going to allow runs before he even comes in, there's a big problem. Just cause KW made an awful trade with Oakland involving Durham, he doesn't have to keep him in the organization. See ya you fat piece of s***.
