Come on Big Jon!!!!!

for the love of god, just win one!

for the love of god, just win one!

 

 

You took the words right out of my mouth.

 

 

I will be there.

 

Drinking heavily.

 

Can we f***ing possibly win?!?!?!

Here's the lineup I would try for the next few days:

 

Iguchi

Dye

Thome

Konerko

Pierzynski

Fields

Mackowiak

Terrero

Gonzalez

 

Iguchi is probably our best option to lead off right now and looks like his bat is coming around. Maybe batting Dye second will cause him to see more fastballs and allow him to break out of his slumber. Terrero is the best option to play CF, and it's time to see what Gonzalez can do at SS and at the plate. He can't be any worse than what we've been getting lately anyway.

Dye's problem now is that he can't catch up to fastballs.

Keep Iguchi in the 2nd spot, as he's been hitting better and we all know he doesn't really adjust to change well. Let Mackowiak leadoff.

Yeah, but if he can sit on them, maybe he can catch up to them and putting him second may allow him to do that. He'll never get his swing back if he's always caught in between. Batting him second for a while may be what he needs.

 

If he can't catch up to fastballs when sitting on them, then he's through anyway. I doubt if he's through yet.

Nah.

Going to the game, with my son. Hopefully we can bring double clover luck to the park.

 

Anyone else get the stupid grinder road trip crap, where you can sign up for a bus road trip to Kaufmann. They have enough problems getting people to see KC versus the sox here, why the hell would people get on a bus. Oh you get a tee shirt and hat though that have grinder road trip.

I am glad to see the Sox are starting on the Team Roadtrip bandwagon. Other teams have been doing this for year. If it wasn't for the fact that I have family in Missouri and KC is remodeling there stadium in a few years, I might be interested. The revamped Kauffman looks pretty sweet. On a related note, am I the only one that hates riding on buses in my old age? I get more sea sick than being on a boat.

Mack batting in the leadoff spot today.

 

Mack LF

Iguchi 2B

Thome DH

Konerko 1B

Pierzynski C

Dye RF

Uribe SS

Terrero CF

Fields 3B

This lineup makes as much sense as anything.

Haven't been around the last couple of games...how bad is Josh Fields getting hammered around here?

My Jeannie Zelasko threshold is dropping.

I love the lineup today.

Give em hell Jon.

 

Wake up bats.

Is Jeannie Zelasko still pregnant?

why am i getting a's @ giants?

Consider yourself lucky...the A's have had some great games lately.

I love the lineup today.

Same, atleast Ozzie put the best guy for the job at the top of the lineup.

So Fields hits at least two home runs today, right?

 

Kalapse, any chance that you can expand your contract page to include all the guys?

I didn't see the game yesterday -- did C-Lee get booed?

This umpire has a very tiny strike zone. Someone's going to get ejected today.

So according to the ESPN broadcasters Iguchi is one of the best defensive 2B in baseball and according to Mark Grace Jermaine Dye plays a flawless RF. Now I'm convinced no one outside of Chicago watches Sox games.

I'm working on something right now, I'm going to include all players on the 40 man roster. I'm changing the look of it a bit so it's going to take some time.

Oney Guillen has good hair.
