greg775 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I love the way we always mock the NL or say certain pitchers will thrive in the NL when we have not exactly played well against the NL this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostfan Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 QUOTE (shingofan69 @ Jun 19, 2009 -> 09:32 PM) How many one run games have we lost this season?

I will take my bad mood elsewhere. Royals are getting pounded by the Cards, 10-1 at home. Another big crowd with nothing to cheer about from the get-go at the K.

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 19, 2009 -> 06:32 PM) What's sickening is that Ozzie is making Dusty look like a real good manager tonight. Played right into the Reds plans by having two straight lefties for Rhodes to face. Yea Baker has match up cards and knew the Sox would PH Thome . So Ozzie played right into Baker's hand. If you announce Wise as the PH see if Baker changes pitchers and if he does you waste Wise , no big deal and have Nix face the lefty then. If he keeps Arroyo in then you have the matchup with Wise against Arroyo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 So yeah, after watching 1 1/2 batters, I stand by my belief that Poreda's best possibility to help the Sox is as trade bait. He reminds me so much of Neal Cotts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmania24 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 not to steal anyone's thunder, but Miller Park is bar none the best park in the midwest in terms of a baseball experience, not location/views of the surrounding area but for viewing an MLB game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OF is a little much with Ads EVERYWHERE(sort of looks like a minor league OF) but the ballpark itself is fantastic. Â Yeah, I don't like that outfield from left-center to right-center.
