way to go rob

 

great AB terrero, 3 pitches-3 strikes

Rob Mackowiak and Carlos Lee both turn 31 today.

No kidding...between this lineup and our bullpen, we're one of the worst teams in all of baseball. I honestly believe that Friday will be Buehrle's last start with the Sox.

 

Really?

I mean I'm not disagreeing, but I think KW might want to wait until July to drive up the value and wait as long as possible before pissing off the fans.

That's just me though

Nothing pisses me off more as a fan and season ticketholder than watching the same thing night in and night out. There haven't been a lot of happy people at the games recently, and I think this team has been bad long enough to where even the most casual fan would understand change is a good thing.

If any fan actually believes this collection of talent is going to win a very good division, then they're a freaking idiot. The more we wait for the value to go up, the more we risk an injury to an aging player (Dye). The fans should be pissed off at KW and Ozzie for this year, but not because they'll trade some older players.

Josh Fields strikes out a lot. I'm not watching, but was it on a fastball? Pitchers do him a favor throwing him breaking balls. Better than average gas blows him away. His swing is pretty long.

yea its almost like josh cocks his bat back, then swings.

 

and jerry owens is terrible. just awful

Why no bunt?

 

How come a player that can hit and not bunt feels Guillen's rather (Iguchi) yet s*** players like Owens, Cintron and Uribe get consistent time. Jerry Owens has no business being in the majors over Sweeney BTW.

 

sad.

Sadly, there are several players like that on the roster.

Owens so overmatched-he hasnt a chance.

It is about time to let Sweeney play for the rest of the year and say goodbye to Owens this guy makes Pods look like an Mvp

its going to be sad that big jon is going to only give up 1-3 runs in 7 innings, and get a L

When will KW see the light and acquire a real lead off hitter? Erstad is not a lead off hitter. Pods is always hurt. Look at the numbers when Pods plays and gets on base. The Sox do well. Get someone else to do that. Andy Gonzalez, Jerry Owens? These guys should be hitting ninth in the Independent League.

Yeah, Owens is bad, and he's weak. Baseball weak. I don't think he can drive a ball further than 300 feet. At least not one thrown with decent speed.

Cant believe Owens is even at 173...send him BACK!

You want Williams to do something?

 

Yep, I'm sure Ichiro is just jumping at the chance to play for a team that was under .500 in 2007 and looking to go young at many positions in 2008. Give up the Ichiro dream, it's not going to happen. Aaron Rowand will be our starting CF in 2008, I guarantee it.

This season is the baseball version of Groundhog Day the movie.

 

Nothing really ever changes unless the opponent really sucks and gives the game away.

 

I bet AJ sees 2 whole pitches at the most.

No. I hope he re-signs Pods for $4 million next offseason and talks about how effective the Sox are when he's "playing his game". For a guy with a reputation of being a gunslinger, KW sure has taken a very conservative approach recently.

I'm not sure about Rowand, but I def agree with you on the Ichiro thing.

Reason I say what I do about ARow is b/c I think he'll price himself out of what we'd

be willing to pay. Wouldn't you say right now he's in the 4/32 range?

You want Williams to do something?

He probably has to get the OK from Paulie to do something.

What's our current score and inning?

1-1

double and an rbi single all with 2 outs, i guess it happens to every team, not just the sox. it happened to lincecum last night when i was in milwaukee vs the brewers
