You have to be smart! With someone as slow as AJP (or PK, Crede), you better be sure they're going to make it when you're down 3 and other guys are on base.

Kinsler is a great looking hitter.

Im not sure but I think AJ was probably sent as the ball hit the floor, the CF got lucky and had the ball bounce right into his glove. Besides anything could of gone wrong in that play for Texas, like a bad throw or misplayed ball...........

Why even more people don't throw even more ptiches there against Jim is beyond me.

terrific

this team just blows right now....god dammit, this is like that nightmare in september last year.

 

An injury ... now that is one way things could get worse.

This is just depressing

Except they didn't start this slide 15 games up and just needing to hang on to get into the playoffs.

This is just depressing

You got that right, I think I might have to turn to drugs.

If last year was Corpseball ... can this be Spiffball?

Glad to see Paulie trying to hit that bases empty 3 run home run that entire at bat.

 

Wow, oh wow, this team is just giving me that second half '04 feeling

Sometimes I just want to email Ozzie (or I assume his son, isn't he the one who answers his emails?) and just say seriously, wtf is going on the clubhouse right now? Is this just a case of end of July blaws or what? This team just looks like a shadow of themselves right now and it's unfortunate

so how far out of the WC will the Sox be after the minn series?

The team was very good in September last year. They sucked in August.

I switched over to the Yankees game.....Schoneweis is looking good. Shut them down.

It is.

The first use of spiff that I actually find funny. Well done

You beat me to it. NYY 3 TOR 7

Why can't Buehrle pitch this well for an entire game/appearance?

Outside of that one inning, Buehrle has been fantastic.

The pitchers just seem to crap their pants for one inning.

That's usually the way it works

Thanks DJ.

Personally I had no problem sending AJ on that play a few innings ago, it took a nice bounce and a good Hairston throw and they got him. When you are slumping you have to be aggressive, especially with two outs when your offense has been scuffling. Nothing is working right now though.

Of course this is like saying serial killers generally are not bad people except for when they senselessly murder other people.

The pitchers just seem to crap their pants for one inning.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in past starts, Buehrle has sucked in most of the innings he's pitched in. Sucking in just one is much better than that.

 

 

 

 

Yea, I'm really looking for some sort of positive out of this game so far.
