Linebrink in.

Screw that, hold them to no runs and get some runs of god damn Nathan.

 

No one is afraid of him, 1 mistake and its a brand new ball game.

2 f***ing runs! what the f*** is that. I think we couldve f***ing fielded the soxtalk allstars and had just as good a chance tonight. It's a shame buehrle is the only one who wants it. it really is.

I'm now experimenting with the rationale that it's better to lose the division because if KW gets mad enough, maybe a lot of heads roll. Maybe not though. Maybe they just end up citing the lack of Quentin.

 

or maybe we sign Nick Punto to a 3 yr, 15 million dollar deal to be our 2nd baseman, trade Poreda and others for Figgins, and get some other crappy grinder to try and become the Twins. Too bad Pods isn't around, as we could trade Quentin for him also.

Wouldn't matter if we make the playoffs... the way these guys are playing it will be 3 and out quick as s***.

soooo tired of wagching konerko hang his head and jog to first at $13 million per season.

 

what an albatross he is going to be for the next four days -- and next two seasons.

 

 

We all should have bet our life savings on the sweep. It was the most obvious happening of the baseball season. It was staring us in the face weeks ago.

Will you lose much sleep if this team misses the playoffs? I honestly don't think I will.

 

I know you are a Sox fan, but I would question that if that was the case.

So we get Alexei, AJ and Uribe up against Nathan? Great. Pop out, ground out and K.

f*** this team. It's not worth caring.

Guys, we all knew this was going to be a blood bath going in. No matter what we're not escaping with a win in this series. And Nathan will be lights out in the 9th.

 

And if you think there is any hope that we can win after getting swept, think again. We have no chance as Minny is running the table, we're done unless we can win our last 4 in a row at home...

Our offense laying an egg in April and May because its cold and how they are pressing and not loosey goosey.

 

Now its September, and they are back to pressing. And they are cold again.

 

The offense is to blame this year more than anything. If we had a mediocre offense, that was less homer reliant. We clinch last week.

 

 

They had Boof Bonser and Blackburn pitching at different times in this game, and the Sox only managed 2 runs. That's just pathetic.

Gardenhire is absolutely abusing us. He's getting the perfect match-ups for his relievers by putting them in a position to succeed. Ramirez should be batting after Konerko, as Konerko is so bad against LHP that having Thome/PK/Griffey in a row is too easy for the Twins and their 4 lefty relievers.

 

The Twins knew that if they could keep the division to with 3 games it was theirs. They were never nervous and it was never in doubt.

Linebrink in...

Well this has been a fun yet extremely irritating season thus far....

 

It's kept me entertained all the way up until and extending past game 157. There's nothing else you can ask for. I can't believe Linebrink is in. He's only better than Ramirez and Logan right now.

Here comes a big inning for the Twins. Linebrink is no longer effective.

The Cell will be so ugly. Our fans will boo the troops mercilessly after getting swept here. It will really be sad and ugly.

This is just going to be a BIG loss. A true dissapointment with the kind of pitches that were thrown to our offense by the twins. TONS of hittable balls and we just didn't get it done. Mark should be remembered this year for really guttin in there for us. Hey... Nathan hasn't been nuts lately, lets hope luck goes our way, thats all that can be done.

 

F*** mark doesn't deserve for us not to be one run away in the ninth, this would be awful. please.

Our offense laying an egg in April and May because its cold and how they are pressing and not loosey goosey.

 

Now its September, and they are back to pressing. And they are cold again.

 

The offense is to blame this year more than anything. If we had a mediocre offense, that was less homer reliant. We clinch last week.

 

It's obvious the air conditioner is on to cold in the dome.

uribe won't bat.

 

 

it will be Ramirez AJ and Swish.

 

 

The Cell will be so ugly. Our fans will boo the troops mercilessly after getting swept here. It will really be sad and ugly.

 

If they get swept here, dont plan on a packed house. They will go silently.

 

 

I know you are a Sox fan, but I would question that if that was the case.

 

I just don't feel it at all with this team. 2006 was more heartbreaking than this is shaping up to be.

 

SCOTT LINEBRINK SHOULD NOT BE PITCHING IN A BIG SITUATION!

And to think someone on Baseball Tonight said at the All-Star break we'd win the division by double digets. Obviously that was going to be wrong, but it's still pathetic to think about.
