the old baseball idea of "can't lose your job to injury" is very stupid. if Ozzie just puts Wise back into the starting lineup day in and day out i'll be surprised and pissed.

It's not just a baseball rule, guys lose their spots all the time in the NFL if they aren't that good and the guy that replaces them is clearly better. Biggest example, probably Tom Brady over Drew Bledsoe (and at that point Bledsoe was still pretty damn good).

at the time i thought New England was making a huge mistake.

Getz a late scratch. Nix will fill in. Sprained ankle.

He did limp off the field after scoring yesterday. I was surprised to see him in there.

yea that always comes to mind when i hear that saying

40 min til game time, how's the weather up there?

Watching Comcast Sports Night live, tarp is off and they are saying the game will be played.

 

 

Looks like there is a window between 7 - 9:15

I can't believe we're actually platooning BA again. Well, yes I can, but god f***in damn it, this is so retarded.

Let's hope we get off to a good start tonight if the window is only 2 hours.

Yeah and Pitt is a beautiful city... or not.

Ask Wally Pipp.

There is no way in hell we would have won that division championship banner without OC. He may have been a jerk, but he did play some damn good baseball last year.

Not really. I suppose Nick Swisher should get a standing O when he comes back?

Let's get this game in.

I'll take a big inning in the first and then Gavin mowing them down.

Here's my thoughts on OC, he didn't want to play for the White Sox for at least $10 million, so he's playing in Oakland for $3 million. He's been punished enough. I don't like him, but I'm not going to boo him.

I hate ozzie for starting Wise over BA.

Great, we get the Phil Cuzzi crew tonight

I can't believe we're actually platooning BA again. Well, yes I can, but god f***in damn it, this is so retarded.

 

It's even more retarded because Ozzie is actually sacrificing both offense and defense just to play Wise over BA. Hopefully it becomes evident within a few days that BA is the superior player.

I remember that Alexei at 2nd base.

Gavin is all over the place, what's up with these kids.

Nice Alexei...f***tard

And the Sox pay.

And just like that, we're down 2-0. Holliday's going to have a huge series against us.

A's pitcher will go 1-2-3 in the first inning of course

Alexei's stupid play puts us down 2-0.

Heaven forbid Floyd ever pitch over a defensive miscue.
