now we just have to let it bleed

Why do the Sox always wet the bed when they play the Twins? Or is this the Sox coming back to earth?

 

A little of both. We see "Minnesota" on the schedule and we just give up.

Well it'll be easier to get Manny after tonight, since the Twins won't be able to block anymore.

Why would you DREAM of throwing him a fastball in that situation?

he called for it chest high - he threw it at the belt

4 IP. 8 Runs. One Epic Fail.

lol, that's actually a pretty good way to look at it. Although, it would be hard for it to work out that perfectly on the very day we drop to 2nd place.

They own us. Sad but true.

Well, we're 1 game back now and momentum is working against us big-time. Really need to win the next two to regain some swagger. It seems like if we played the Twins 162 games a year, we would go 30-132 every year. It sure seems that way.

it's not coming back to earth for us is almost every time schedule comes to june and july we get hot and we fade in august and september.

They own us. Sad but true.

 

They've abused us ever since Kelly's last season and since Gardy took over. It really is incredible.

 

 

Wow that was a give up swing Paul.

How quick do the players go through waivers? Like could the Dodgers say "Alright, the White Sox are now in 2nd place, we may have a chance to work out a deal w/ them w/o Minny blocking the claim. Let's put him through now". Or does it take a few days for a claim to be made? Is there a certain window you have to decide on a player if you want to claim him or not?

Once placed on waivers teams have 48 hours to put a claim on him. After the 48 hour period is up and no claim has been made the player has made it through waivers and can be traded freely.

 

If a player is placed on waivers Thursday or Friday, they 48 hour period extends and ends on the following Monday and Tuesday.

 

 

need to chip away at these f***ers

f*** you Kenny and Ozzie for signing Kotsay as our goddamn DH!!

Twins own us, indisputable fact.

It's been that way for 20-25 yrs

This game is ebb and flow of suck.

Twins own us, indisputable fact.

Game #163 of 2008 called and said "Once again, you've said something not-all-that-bright!".

Why the hell is Teahen wasting time in Charlotte while Kotsay continues to suck??

the worst match-up of this 3 game set and some of you are s***ting stones. Lets get Danks and Floyd up there before we call it quits.
