CYGarland Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 QUOTE(CWSOX45 @ Aug 20, 2006 -> 01:13 PM) I'm just praying our offense can get SOMETHING going in the next 3 innings. But according to Freddy, Javy "kept us in the game, the offense has to score runs" The only one that stands out in my mind that they didnt win was against Detroit..... You better pray a ton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwolf68 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I expect this is Santana's last inning if he comes out.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G&T Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Whats Santana's pitch count at? Of course the bullpen isn't much fun either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is at 91....yea, you're right...their bullpen is tough no doubt. Well there is a bit of good news in today's situation...Texas got down 6-0 in the 2nd inning, but has just finished off their 7-6 comeback win. VERY NICE JOB by Texas to keep us 5.5 out of this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really deserve it. Any team with Javier Vazquez should never have a "Grinders" commercial play. As we've talked about before, if we keep mailing in games against Santana, it's going to be difficult for us to make the playoffs. At this point and time, this Twins team is superior to us. Let's hope some other teams can defeat them in the next 35 games or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHarris1 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Thank you Texas...still have to take at least 3 this week to have any shot at the division Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwolf68 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 After Javy blew up for 4 runs someone said they now expected Santana to not give up another hit the rest of the game....He's pretty much doing it now. Pathetic performance, but Detroit is scuffling as well....should be an interesting week. Of course, the Twins play against (oh now), the Orioles and won't get Bedard (pitched -not well-today). I expect the Twins to at least take 2 of 3 from the Birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allsox Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I wonder if Ozzie's going to try something different next Fri when they face Santana again. Start Pods, AJ cuz the last 3 times vs Johan, stacking righties hasn't worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G&T Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 20, 2006 -> 04:21 PM) I guess it puts things into perspective. Seems like we have been a last place team since we played Detroit, and were going to go up to Detroit the same place as when they left. But the Sox should be a couple games closer. It's nice not to lose ground, but it would help to gain ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I can't wait for people to tell us that Vazquez didn't do that badly today. After all, he surpassed our current expectations of a run per inning for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
