greg775 Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 I'm not getting my hopes up, but you never know. That's the way I would like to look at it. 3 losses in 4 games would be what I've grown to expect from the team. Sox "should" be as loose as they've been all year after playing decent of late.

Harry Chappas Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 (edited) I am getting the feeling that the Paper Tiger (CQ) is having injury issues. Edited May 27, 2010 by Jenks Heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 27, 2010 -> 03:24 PM) I am getting the feeling that the Paper Tiger (CQ) is having injury issues. In May, Kotsay's putting up a .955 OPS, Jones is putting up a .750 OPS, and Quentin's putting up a .635 OPS (.581 on the road). Even if he's healthy, he hasn't earned playing time right now.

iamshack Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 QUOTE (justBLAZE @ May 27, 2010 -> 01:26 PM) Based on what? just a hunch? Yesterday he sort of landed or ran through first base awkwardly in the 6th or 7th inning I think. He didn't appear to injure himself, but it certainly looked scary to me. I hope it doesn't have anything to do with that. I immediately thought, oh crap, not the turf toe again...hope he didn't rip it again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Quentin is a bust, I wonder how long the gamethreaders will hang onto that fine thread of hope that CQ will ever be good again? Also, we take at most 2 games this series, but I'd put money down on the danks game, and only that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 QUOTE (Real @ May 27, 2010 -> 02:26 PM) Quentin is a bust Ya your already wrong. You are considered a bust when you haven't done s*** at the MLB level at all, especially when you are/were considered a top prospect. Now... you can call him a one year wonder, a guy with a fluke season, injury prone player who was amazing for a season, etc.. but bust players don't go .288/.394/.571/.965 148 OPS+ (5th in MVP voting, though would had won if he didn't get injured) in any year.

justBLAZE Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Posted this in the catch all thread but I guess it belongs here too. Sox wanted to push Peavy back and let Buehrle start Sunday, and Peavy said no thanks - he wants the Rays. via Joe Cowley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderBolt Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 If Peavy goes out and bombs against the Rays, i'm going to be pissed. He needs to start backing up his talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, Ozzie sends Buehle to the mound Monday night, and is confused when no batter or umpire stands in against him and the stadium is empty.

Its insanity, but I keep expecting us to put out a real major league lineup when we have at the most 4 legit major league hitters right now.

fathom Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 So I see we play Texas on Tuesday. I'd definitely rather see Peavy face them than have Buehrle face that team of righty mashers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
