Well, I feel terrible for Jose. He has to end his streak against the god damn Yankees. Nice one Ozzie.

Ozzie doesn't deserve all the blame. Contreras gave up the hits and runs. He wasn't even at 100 pitches to start the inning. If Contreras gets the L, he deserves it.

This was one of those games. Awful ump, lots of bloops. What can you do?

 

HOpe Mark pitches a great game tomorrow.

His streak lasted a lot longer than it should have to be honest. He had an awful June.

Agree 100%.

 

What the hell kind of streak was it anyway? He's had a s*** load of NDs, it's not like he's been winning every game.

lets hope detriot wins, we cannot hang with the big boys

Since I could care less about personal records, maybe this might get him going again. He definitely should have lost this streak a few times in the last couple of months.

I know, but it souldn't have happened tonight. Not against his old team. I see the headlines tomorrow:

 

"Yankees destroy Jose's streak, glad he was traded."

 

Some kind of crap like that.

bring on Mo, lets kick his ass!!!!

 

RALLY CREDE!!!

 

HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO!!!

 

DONT STOP BELIEVING!!!

 

PLAY SOME f***ING JOURNEY!!!

 

i'm doing it.

everytime Ozzie has always done this retarded s*** using 3-4 pitchers in 1 inning it always comes back to bite us in the ass.... To give him credit he hasnt done it much this season that I remember but still... no reason to not leave B-mac in there.

Ozzie completely over-managed this inning.

 

 

yup

Micro managing just irks me. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but it always kills me.

 

And above, I see I'm not the only one.

We got solid pitching tonight. We only made solid contact on one of the numerous hangers thrown by Randy Johnson tonight. We could have done a lot more damage.

?

What part of "we can't hang with the big boys" do you not understand?

i really wouild have trusted brandon to finish this inning off, giving one run up at most. One run is possible against Rivera, 2 is another story

Which is why I'm all in favor of a blockbuster trade right now for any superstar. When you have to scratch and claw to barely beat the Red Sox at home, it should signal something.

 

 

Eh, it's a short stretch and it's not like the Sox are getting blown out. The team could be improved for sure. The first thing to do would be to tell Ozzie TO NEVER PLAY the scrubs againt the elite of the AL. Let them sit against the Royals.

 

Chris Widger is junk and if KW really wants to upgrade the team at no cost he finds a backup catcher capable of a) hitting, or B) catching. Widger can't do either.

Ozzie doesn't deserve all the blame. Contreras gave up the hits and runs. He wasn't even at 100 pitches to start the inning. If Contreras gets the L, he deserves it.

No, it's not all on Ozzie. But I really think if he put Jose in there to start it, he should let him dig himself out of the hole.

see White Sox schedule, circa mid August 2005.

man i love neal cotts.

 

 

 

i knew it was a bad idea

Well, I don't think we are ever out of it, but it's gonna be tough now.

Um, why isn't Crede at 3rd?

give it up sweet, Neal

Neal wet the f***ing bed this inning. I'm not blaming him for the loss, but apparently his "sneaky fast" fastball isn't doing much.

 

Does he think this is 2003?

I don't really think 4 ER over 7 is "solid". Neither is 2+ ER in .2 IP by the bullpen.

 

Unless you mean we ran into some solid pitching...

Ozzie is such a pathetic in game manager. Seriously, I can't stand him sometimes.

I really feel awful for Brandon McCarthy sometimes.

completely agree we need a shake up. In addition we are god damn lucky KC is winning right now. i posted a week ago saying this will be the toughest week of the season. We lost this game but if detriot loses we actually won. No s***. Ozzie compelely over thought this game. its better when he goes with the gut than with his brain.
