Great time for Contreras to go into the tank.

Not to mention the offense.

Contreras has looked like the 04 pitcher since his injury. That injury possibly could've ruined our season b/c since then Contreras has been crap as well as the rest of our pitching. Is there a corrilation maybe, maybe not.

Another HBP scores. Its pretty incredible how many score.

QUOTE(G&T @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 07:17 PM)
it's always 2 out damage.

We give up 2 out RBI's like candy on Halloween but can't f***ing get them these days to save our lives.

And this game is over.

 

This f***ing pitching staff... damn 'em.

 

And, because I'm in a crabby mood right now, Free Ryan Sweeney! If Podsednik doesn't get a hit in his next AB, his OPS will fall below .700. That's unacceptable for a guy who isn't a defensive whiz at a non-demanding defensive position. Unacceptable. His OBP will also fall below .330 if he doesn't get on in his next AB.

 

This is a joke.

How is it that Monroe is even hitting as well as he does, he can only hit one ball, inside and up. Thats the only thing he can hit.

I just keep telling myself..."just a few more months of pods."

 

And you're a very optimistic, laid-back poster. :cheers

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 08:16 PM)
I honestly think it's debatable if Pods even has great speed now. He's lost two steps, in my opinion.

 

Although I always liked Ozzie's assessment that speed doesn't slump, it certainly is ironic that the Sox managed to stumble onto the exception.

They have been scared off by all of us 5 year olds.

Seriously Podsednik f***ing blows. He cannot get out of town soon enough.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 05:18 PM)
We have 1 reliable starting pitcher right now. That's not going to get us anywhere.

Yep. This offense needs to wake the f*** up, because our starters just dont have it this year......

yep he looked like crap when he tossed that 3 hitter

What is that supposed to mean?

At this point, if we lose this game, the momentum is all on their side, and they take 3 out of 4, maybe all 4.

Can somebody again tell me why Coop and Jose felt the need to mess around with new arm angles when he was already dominating?

He loses his spiff every time he hits someone.

COOP WILL FIX IT

This is a very very big game and you can definitely tell by the way we are playing.

Long story...in no way what it intended to insult anyone in this current thread though.

Considering he just threw an overhand fastball to Monroe, I dont think that is the issue.

I wouldn't say the game's over YET, but it sure doesn't look good.

Coop was fixing him before he was broken. This is a new, more efficient strategy.

KW had the right idea standing pat. Terrific job letting these guys work themselves out of a "slump."

C'mon heart of the order. Lets get some right now!

On that note, something is wrong with Thome, there just has to be, and I PK doesn't seem to care about hitting for power anymore. That leaves Dye to do everything with no one on base. Honestly, something looks wrong with Thome and Konerko.
