fathom Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Randy Williams has no business being on this team. Nothing more really needs to be said. If he stays on the roster, then KW and Ozzie deserve criticism. Also, maybe now that the streak is over, KW and Ozzie will get serious about adding another bat.

iamshack Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 27, 2010 -> 03:16 PM) It still irks me though. Bringing in Williams is a sign of conceding victory. Threets is here so why not give him a shot? We already know what Williams brings to the table and that's absolutely nothing. And it was 7-3. What I was implying is that we never scored a 7th run, so the run he gave up was inconsequential. But I understand your point.  I'm getting more and more upset as this one sinks in, between Beckham's interference call, Alexei getting called out at first, and the strike on Rios...grrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 27, 2010 -> 04:15 PM) It was a great series and a great last game with two (three?) really bad calls by the umpires. I'll take 4 of 6 from a crappy national league team, but I'd prefer accurate calls and a legitimate chance for Rios in that AB. I'd prefer a better effort from John Danks and Threets over Williams, but life isn't fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearSox Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 I don't care how much he costs, I'd be willing to give up my left nut for a 3-4-5-6 of Rios, PK, Prince, and Quentin (if Quentin keeps hitting like he has a pair). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Brewers are looking to compete this season. They're not going to trade Prince unless they start struggling again. Very similar to Cliff Lee.

Jordan4life_2007 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 27, 2010 -> 03:39 PM) I think it's the combination of the winning streak coming to an end and it coming at the hands of the lowly Cubs. With this pitching matchup, this is a game where the odds were stacked in our favor, especially after getting the quick 2-0 lead.  Johnny just didn't have it today and we let Dempster get in a rhythm after having him on the ropes early.  Oh well, you can't win them all.  Need to get another winning streak started tomorrow.  Anybody who's paid any attention to the Sox over the last 10 years should've expected a loss today. We almost NEVER sweep the Cubs after taking the first two games of a series. It's an automatic loss every single time (save 2008). It really is annoying.

Sox lost ground to the Tigers. Â Anyway, the umpiring was terrible today and Gary Darling can kiss my ass. Of course Carlos Marmol is unhittable when the umpires call his pitches 8 inches out of the zone strikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So then you're trading Danks, Buehrle or Floyd? If they're looking to compete and believe moving Prince for a starter would do that then they're going to look for a guy with some kind of success at the ML level.

I'm very proud of the 9th inning effort, and we just have to start another win streak tomorrow. Â Â I'm with you Fathom! That 9th was pretty good until the ump screwed Rios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeavyTime Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 The MLB umpiring continues to be a joke. Â 1. Alexei was safe, obviously. Can we get replay? Like, now? 2. The Rios strike zone was horses***, obviously. Can we implement the computerized strike zone? Like, now? 3. D. Lee's double was a foul ball, I rewound it several times and there is no doubt in my mind 4. According to my buddy, Gordon hit a ball down the third base line that was called foul but was fair, I didn't see the play so I'm not sure. 5. Alexei being called out at 2nd was incredibly weak. If the umpire got that call right, then the rule needs to be changed. Natural swinging motion shouldn't be interference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 It really is annoying. Â All losses are annoying. We won 2 of 3 which is good. 3 would have been nirvana. I'll take winning series after series. We need to beat the teams in our division the rest of the way. If we keep sucking against the ones not named Detroit, we aren't going to win squat.
