We're PRing for Konerko already? Did he hurt himself?

HBP in the inner thigh back in the 5th.

Yikes, tough play there.

Nice effort by Kotsay

Throw strikes Danksy

Man, that was close.

I think we should pull.. well there you go.

Quit worrying about the f***ing runners and get the guy at the plate.

These walks ARE going to hurt us...stop it already, just finish this.

T-Pain Time.

To think, i was wanting kenny to get rid of everybody in the first month of the season (except herm of course)

By the way, I'm not hating on Danks. He's a ridiculously good #4 and he's learning how to pitch still. He's a really good one too with an upside of a #2 as well. I give Floyd a little bit of a notch and right now I think Floyd is better but he's also older. I f***ing love the fact that we have both of them on the southside!!!

 

Combine that with Buehrle/Peavy and what I expect will be Hudson next season (maybe a veteran stop-gap until Hudson takes over) and we are talking about a team that if the rotation is healthy, should contend every single season.

Danks isn't a #4 on most teams right now. He's a #3 on the Yankees, #3 on the Red Sox, #2 / #3 on the Angels this year. He's at worst #3 for the Sox (I think he's pretty equal with Floyd overall but Floyd has been hotter the last few months) and will only go down to #4 because the Sox will have two legitimate #1s for the first time since who knows when (Peters / Horlen?).

T-Pain Time.

Nice play by Kotsay

It's pretty exciting that the Sox have a rotation consisting of: a Cy Young Award winner, a guy who is a #2 at worst on any team, and two guys who are #2s on many teams and #3s at worst on the best teams. That may not quite reach mid-90's Braves dominance, but it's pretty freaking impressive.

 

hard luck there.

 

get the dp.

Oh, damn

great pick by Kotsay.

We need a lucky little grounder to ss

That run is on the sodfather. That ball needs to go foul.

I'm happy that Danks is pissed about his lack of command over the past two innings. I'd rather see that than a guy who says "Oh well" and falls back on his first four innings and the lead that his offense gave him.
