I would take some urgency or fire. Some sort of respect for the fact that they are the crown holders, the defending champions. At least a Michael Jordan "no bullets left" sort of approach.

 

I hate apathy.

If Oakland's scored the last 3 innings, that's a pretty good message to Guillen to get him out of the game. But Ozzie doesn't listen to anyone.

I might jump out the window if Jose comes out for the 7th

Ozzie's baseball IQ is truant by the most polite standards.

I'll move my car.

Looks like Ross will be on the bench tomorrow

Odd, When Gload faces a lefty he doesnt look stupid like he is completely overmatched like AJ or Thome or Pods.

 

 

I wonder why this is.

 

3 hits for Gload, he will be on the bench tomorrow night.

How dare Ross Gload show up the other players by getting hits! Take his ass out of the game right now!

To quote Fathom, because for some reason I can't quote his post, it's not a choke because of our position in the standings, but due to the inability of this team to meet expectations.

 

Difficult to defend your title when you're not even in the postseason.

 

They didn't choke away a lead; they choked away the entire 2nd half of this season.

Thats why a line drive level swing is great.

 

When adjusting to a breaking ball mid swing, a line drive swing hitter just has to drop the bat level a bit. A lift and pull home run hitter, needs to drop and readjust. Its called a hitch when you are 11, but we call it the 2006 whitesox swing.

 

 

 

Dong or Die is up.

 

 

Either he will hit a homer, K or popup.

Why not have PK ph for Thome here?

Thome, please come through this one instance in September.

 

Atleast elevate a pitch.

I heard PK's back is hurting him

Because they are playing parchizi in the dugout instead of managing.

Tell the captain to take a midol, and pass the bottle around the clubhouse.

I thought they were shooting pool.

Typical AB for Jim Thome lately. Gload should be starting every day.

Keep contributing so much Thome...Garland could have hit a grounder like that.

One of our trio of pull monkeys, pulls one out.

 

 

5-4 Bad Guys

Does anyone kill a rally quicker than Thome?

Thome was Mr. Incredible in the 1st half.

 

Now he is a member of the UnClutchables.

Does anyone kill a rally quicker than Thome?

 

At least we have Thome's blazing speed on 1st.

So did Thome magically become a pull only hitter, or was he transformed into one by the instruction of our coaching staff.

 

It seem to work for AJ.

Why not have PK ph for Thome here?

 

Because Thome is being paid $10M+.

Does anyone kill a rally quicker than Thome?

 

 

He is on the bench with bad back, and 24 double plays.

So is Konerko.

He is on the bench with bad back, and 24 double plays.

 

At least PK seems like he can get a hit when he's at the plate now.
