May 11, 200322 yr Colon down 3-0 in 3rd and saddest part of all is this game is already probably over with s*** offense we have. Colon will have a new address by July. OAK and Sea WHIPPED Sox ass home and away .500 is a distant memory and KW, JM and GW are STILL employed
May 11, 200322 yr Well, JR is going to pay. There will be no walk ups at the Cell the rest of the year. Crap attendance in June, July and August for our Sox. Even non Sox fans here in KC by me can't believe we haven't fired Manuel. Folks, we were SUPPOSED to win this year.

May 11, 200322 yr Wow Bartolo Colon is a totally different pitcher when he's using that curve effectively. Earlier this year I only seem to remember him getting that heater and change over.
May 11, 200322 yr Author now don't you feel a tad bit premature having written this game's obituary so soon... Oh boy CW, 3 runs stop the presses this game is not won YET! Bullpen not involved YET!
May 11, 200322 yr I don't count cause I live in KC and will attend zip unfortunately. But you have to agree with my attendance comment, correcto? I would go to 20 games if I could. I remember going to about 18 games one year in high school to watch one of the worst teams in Sox and baseball history, still had fun. You can't beat fun at the ol ballpark as Harry or Jack B. used to say, one of the two.
May 11, 200322 yr Oh boy CW, 3 runs stop the presses this game is not won YET! Bullpen not involved YET! but - and stop the presses - the game isn't over as you pronounced it either - please do not ever go to med school - every patient would be pronounced dead by you with their first sneeze!
May 11, 200322 yr Great win for Bartolo. He shut them down after Ichiro's homer. The players showed some spirit. Big game tomarrow.
May 11, 200322 yr If we can break even (3-3) this West Coast trip I will be I called the 3-3 roadtrip last week and i'm stickin to it...we got Buehrle on the hump. The biggest thing about Colon tonight was shuttin em down with style right after we took the lead...that was huge.

The biggest thing about Colon tonight was shuttin em down with style right after we took the lead...that was huge. imo..biggest thing about tonight was damaso marte was fully entrenched as the closer....came in with a man on first and no one out and shutr the door bigtime..pitched to both righties and lefties...billy botch was no where to been seen i think its safe to say that the closer's role is marte's to lose now
May 11, 200322 yr im more concerned about barts shaking hands and sore arm at the end of his game ........wtf was that about?????? didnt look good at any rate.....cant be good either...........
May 11, 200322 yr im more concerned about barts shaking hands and sore arm at the end of his game ........wtf was that about?????? didnt look good at any rate.....cant be good either........... Hopefully thats just a part of his insane throwing 95 mph past the 7th inning routine. He sure pitched like a stud today after that first inning

May 11, 200322 yr Wasn't Marte in because a lefty was up? I think Koch is the closer, they are just working him back in first.
May 11, 200322 yr Colon really stepped up after the third. He looked like a different pitcher. I was impressed and it was super looking at how he pitched. I noticed that hand tremor too when he was in the dugout. I wonder what that was about? Anybody know? I thought it might be just the strain and tension on his hand and arm when gripping the ball and throwing those curves and 99 MPH fastball.
May 11, 200322 yr Wasn't Marte in because a lefty was up? I think Koch is the closer, they are just working him back in first. the first batter up was lefty...but the next three (including a pinch hitter) were righties...no sign of botch
May 11, 200322 yr the first batter up was lefty...but the next three (including a pinch hitter) were righties...no sign of botch Is it DL time for Billy???
May 11, 200322 yr the first batter up was lefty...but the next three (including a pinch hitter) were righties...no sign of botch Going into the 9th, it was Edgar, Olerud, Cameron. Edgar singled, and Marte was brought in to face Olerud. I think he popped out or something, then Cameron hit that ball to LF and Bloomquist (pinch runner for Edgar) got tagged out following the run down, and the last guy struck out (don't recall who, but he was a righty). I don't know if Koch is injured or not, but either way, I have a sneaking suspicion that Marte very well could be named closer before too long. He's got an ERA under 2.00, and even if/when Koch turns it around, I think Marte might be a better choice as closer. Even Koch at his best doesn't have an ERA under 2.00. Could be interesting.
