Loss

Quentin, Ramirez, AJ, and probably many others I'm forgetting had awful days at the plate.

 

PK really f'ed up in the field, too.

 

Any other team this probably would have been a sweep against us. :chair

So this is a ritual here now? Post a LOSS thread after every loss now too? Yeesh...

We should put a big L flag up on the site too and call it lovable.

 

Wake up and go get them in Texas.

Why not...just to talk about it. Don't read it then....

Let's win 2 of 3 this weekend, and go into the break with a lead over 3.

One thing I do want to say...besides Paulie's pathetic D...just WHY IN THE HELL is Crede playing 10 feet off the line with a righthander up in a 1-run game?!?

Mark pitched a good game.

Whatever, I'm just saying it's a little ridiculous. There's ALWAYS something to b**** about after a loss... that's why it's a loss! But losses are going to happen. We won 2 out of 3 (which we were lucky to win)... be happy with that. It's just that this seems to be in such bad taste. A lot of us on this site seem to get a little too worked up over losses, even when we're on good streaks. I'm convinced we could win 20 games in a row, then lose 1, and someone would be calling for someone to be fired or traded.

Buehrle deserved better. Paulie needs to get it back together. He's worthless right now. That 8th inning was just UGH.

Pretty much done that all year. It's a post-game discussion thread, and it happens to be after a loss.

 

Stinks to not get the sweep, but if they take the series in Texas and finish out the half strong then I won't complain.

 

:gosox3: :gosox3:

Rangers offense is amazing right now....we're going to have to outslug them this week.

I have a bad feeling about this Texas series. Our pitching will face a real test.

i think that we could put either Brian or Wise in center as defensive replacements. I believe they would have a bettter chance than Swisher on the balls hit by teahen and guillen and why would Ozzie play paulie against Greinke when he only has 3 hits in 30 at bats previously against him.......

It's been done for years now so I don't know where you've been. It's just a postgame thread, why not talk about it?

It's real simple....PK was still in during the 8th because he was up 2nd in the 9th inning. Ozzie made the decision that his at bat in possibly a tie game was more important that fielding your best defensive team. Ozzie was very good the first two games of this series with these types of decisions, so it's not a big mistake.

by the way how was that not an error on konerko?

secondly what bat? Konerko lost his bat in spring training.

Exactly....anyways, I'm watching the Rangers game right now, and their offense scares the s*** out of me.

Angels 10 runs on 8 hits.

 

Rangers 10 runs on 19 hits.

Kinsler, Michael Young, and Hamilton are red hot. Hasn't Michael Young hit in like 29 of 30 games?

they have hit all year. I am very worried our pitchers will get the crap kicked out of them. on the same note, our bats will do well against them. Still fathom, I really can't stand watching Konerko bat, its painful. We need to tread water here this last weekend. We need some breaks with Minni and detriot splitting and us grabbing at least a game from texas. If we get two we will be in nice shape.

To be honest, as long as we're in first after this wknd, I won't be too upset.

19 hits, unreal, and the angels are not a crap team, they can pitch a little bit.

agreed

We face Luis Mendoza tomorrow, who allowed 8 ER in 1.1 innings earlier this week.
