I hate runs for the other team, but I really hate 2 out runs.

Scouts are very rarely influenced by how a rookie pitcher's totals against major league hitters look. They're vastly more interested in what the guy is throwing.

He's had trouble throwing strikes.

Yeah let's throw liney out there for 4 innings and burn out his arm, at least we can get a little value out of the guy. Can't believe we got another year of him as well...

 

Hey, maybe we can have an insurance policy on him?

Lost in the Hudson disappointing performance is we're getting dominated by a pitcher who's given up a ton of hits over his last 6 starts.

and tomorrow we get felix again so a danks 2 hitter may not be enough

But you know what, this roster got us into this position, so no changes are necessary! I wonder if they'll keep saying that if the Twins pass us up before July 31st.

and he hasn't had a win since his perfect game.

I've heard more about Bert Campaneris today than I have anyone playing in this game. With that said, nice change-up by Hudson.

lucky for us the tigers suck or we would be in 3rd by then

tigers are done with...I'd say Twins are 50 pct likely to win ALC, Sox 40, and Tigers 10

8 pitch inning

 

Where was that all afternoon?

Twins don't have better pitching than us, starters or BP, even without Peavy, IMO, so I still believe we are the favorites. Their O could be much better but we're slowly turning the corner there despite our joke of a situation at DH

Oh come on guys...let's face it, we probably should have gone 6-4 on this trip and I would have been fine with that. These last two games have been frustrating, but this trip hasn't been as bad as the record indicates.

But their offense is way better.

With the Twins finally getting rid of Blackburn, and coupled with the Sox losing Peavy, it feels like we lost the big advantage we had with regards to the starting rotation. Pavano and Liriano are matching Danks/Floyd these days.

It's not the record that's frightening, it's that the guys who were carrying this offense when we were hot (Konerko/Rios/Quentin) have really slowed down. However, we know those guys are much better at the Cell, so that's why the next 7 games are so critical.

Braden is a spaz.

Braden is a spaz.

 

yes he is...it's an upset he's a baseball player and not in jail (I mean that complimentary).

A homer would be huge here.

I hate this f***ing zone.

It's been a huge asset for Braden and unfavorable for Hudson.

game day said it was a ball.

Sounds like Walker gave the Sox some great advice prior to this game.

Quentin trying to pull EVERYTHING up at the plate, making him an easy out today. Hawk's in "tip your cap" mode.

i am going twins 60 sox 30 tigers 10

Phillies fired they're hitting coach, why can't we?
