fathom Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Aug 10, 2008 -> 09:06 PM) I love Sox fans sometimes. They have been spoiled by the HR all these years. HR=bad. Smallball=Good.  THIS TEAM LEADS THE LEAGUE IN HOME RUNS. WHY ARE WE GIVING UP OUTS IN THE 5TH INNING???  I think Hawk's stupidity sets the tone.

Friend of Nordhagen Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ Aug 10, 2008 -> 03:08 PM) Not having those extra runs is going to hurt. Â Hawk says the same, but excuses the lackluster effort by OC with the man on 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Sean Casey would of been a great DP candidate if Gavin gets the ball down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 (edited) QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Aug 10, 2008 -> 03:08 PM) All aboard the Gavin train Ozzie bringing in Thornton with men on base  That = Runs Scored  Thanks Oz  Well, you really can't start Thornton off in the inning, because Gavin had a long time to rest (too much, apparently) and had pitched well since the Lowell homer...then you have to really extend him (Thornton) to bridge across to Dotel, if you can manage to get to the 8th and keep the lead or at least a tie.  We're just too vulnerable in our bullpen right now.

santo=dorf Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Hawk again playing favorites with Cabrera. He's struggled with down and in all year, and that's all Masterson was throwing him. No adjustment made by the Hall of Famer. Did Hawk really call Orlando a HOFamer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
