QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 02:03 AM) Pods only has 5 fewer RBI than he did all of last season when a few people around here thought he warranted MVP consideration. Last year he may have been the most overrated player in the history of baseball. He really helped this team out with his steals, especially at the beginning of the year when our hitting sucked but the pitching was great. He was just pathetic in the 2nd half of the season though. I'll definitely give him credit for playing great in the postseason though. QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 02:04 AM) we need to get thome going. hes been getting hits here and there but hes been struggling a bit. hasnt hr'ed in 10 days. or one week, but who's counting.

QUOTE(knightni @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:59 AM) 2 down. Pods with the excellent at-bat decisions. Be nice....his publicist isn't here to spin it.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:52 AM) Garland was better tonight, he kept the ball in the park, but 5 1/3 innings is not getting the job done. You know you're my favorite poster on this site, but I don't get this. Against this lineup and in this heat, Garland pitched 10 times better than most of us expected. Especially considering Ozzie's quick hook with him, I am thrilled with Garland's performance tonight. He actually looked like a pitcher tonight, and just wasn't throwing his sinker down the middle. He had terrible outfield defense tonight, and that definitely led to the first run.

Great job Cotts!!!

Nice pitch by Cotts. He finally dropped the slider down and in. Huge batter in this game here.

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:51 AM) Only managed to get 5.1 IP out of Garland..bleh.. I'll take what he gave us tonight every single start.

Ozzie's bringing in a fastball pitcher (Cotts) to face a dead fastball hitter (Tex).

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:48 AM) Our outfielders playing the role of Keystone Kop defense. :headshake Outside of Anderson, it's been that way almost all season.

QUOTE(Felix @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:48 AM) f*** you Jon. this always happens His outfield defense deserves more blame than he does.

What a bunch of mental midgets. Get Garland out of the game though...everything's up in the zone.

His pitches are higher in the zone this inning.

And here come the Rangers. This might be Garland's last batter of the game. In a 4 run game, you can't be walking the number 9 hitter Jon!

No walks to the #9 hitter!

This is a very big inning for Garland to keep the Rangers down, and let our hitters keep their momentum.

QUOTE(knightni @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:34 AM) Let's get Matthews to play cf/lf. They aren't going to trade him. I actually mentioned him two weeks ago, and was told he wouldn't be an upgrade. :banghead

Good job Crede!

If there's one person who's perfect for hitting a grounder to the right side, it's AJP.

QUOTE(Felix @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:29 AM) I turned this game on right before this inning... perfect timing Can anyone tell me how the Sox got their first run? Thome double, PK single, Dye grounder to pitcher up the line, had no play at home.

QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:28 AM) JD w/a double. hes awesome His AB vs Bettanroids on Friday night was the best of the season.

Lets keep it going... we can't have enough runs vs Rangers.

The Rangers have amazing fielding fans.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:18 AM) Nice double play. Hawk was ready to go apes*** on Uribe if he made a bad throw. If Iguchi gets on this inning, I love our chances of putting up a few runs. Holy s***....I was right for once.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 01:23 AM) AWESOME!!! I Love your fantasy team!! This is much difference than the s*** from this wknd, when the player was AGAINST the Sox.

No grounders PK.

Here we go....good start.
