QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:30 AM) Look he shortened up the swing on a 0-2 count!!!!! Yes he did. Hopefully Embree keeps throwing fastballs. A low slider will probably K him.

Uribe is such a dumb base runner. Why would you risk distracting Iguchi?

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:27 AM) Uh. Yes I was. I was just making fun of the people who say Jose sucks after every mediocre to bad outing. He's been one of the rocks for us of late. Boston. Toronto. NYY. Incredibly pitched games when we needed them. All coming off of losses. Sorry about that then. I didn't mean for it to come across as being rude.

Anyone else fearful of Uribe getting picked off or doubled up here?

Cotts hasn't allowed a run in 15 outings. I'd put him, Cliff, and Hermanson into the game, and if the Yankees can win the game, I tip my cap to them.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:24 AM) Sarcasm says hello. No, he wasn't being sarcastic. I had a feeling he wasn't.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:24 AM) Well obviously I think he should have a no hitter. And I'm furious that he doesn't. I'm sorry. Just kidding

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:22 AM) I see no reason to not at least let him pitch to Womack...and maybe Jeter if Womack doesn't get on. He's only thrown 96 pitches. I'll bet you we see Marte come in against Cano. I'd like to see Cotts start the 8th with 2 out of 3 lefties up in the 8th. He had no problem with that part of the lineup last night. If it gets to Sheffield, then Politte can come in to face him.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:21 AM) Jose sucks. He should have a no hitter at this point. Unreal. Just incredible. Makes me real mad. What the hell are you talking about?

QUOTE(AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:20 AM) It's Count's game to blow... No, it's our teams game to blow. Contreras doesn't have a lot of success going deep into games.

Wow, good job by Contreras tonight. After that 81 mph I don't know what pitch up in the zone to Tino, I think we should go with Politte in the 8th.

I'd pull Contreras here, but I'm sure he won't be. Two well hit balls by the Yankees, and with Marte warming up, I think he'd have good success against Tino.

QUOTE(JimH @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:16 AM) Terrible at bats by Rowand and Crede. Rowand had no business swinging at that 3-1 pitch. The sad thing is that this park is made for Rowand's swing. No one hits more 320 foot fly balls to right field than Rowand.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:15 AM) Probably feeling about as s***ty as Jeff Bajenaru. Numbers don't matter. We gotta keep the chemistry, and you two guys don't add much to the clubhouse! Jon Adkins and Timo Perez, YES! Gload proved himself in the majors last year....Bajenaru didn't. This team needs offensive help from the left side....not another righty reliever.

A couple of batters here that are going to be trying to tie this game up with one swing.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:14 AM) It is sickening to watch Crede go up there in a crucial situation and have NO plan. See ball, hit ball. Not waiting for a spot. If anyone pitches him in, they should be kicked out of the league. Exactly! Him and Uribe have no plan or clue at the plate at all. Something has got to be done about our 8-9 hitters.

QUOTE(Sox Hustler @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:13 AM) :headshake 2 on no outs and they dont do a damn thing.... It was 2 on, 1 out thanks to our fearless number 5 hitter. I wonder what Ross Gload is thinking about in Charlotte right now? I'm not going to get into conspiracy theories....but something stinks.

What's the point of acquiring Blum if we're not going to sit Crede when he's in a massive slump?

Holy f***ing s*** is Crede awful right now. He needs to sit for a few games.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:11 AM) Why the f*** is Rowand swinging 3-0? Mercy... It was 3-1, as you probably know by now.

Crap, huge out in this game by Rowand there.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:10 AM) Im thinking Blum plays third tomorrow. Crede will be on the bench for sure. Timo will likely play RF or DH.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:07 AM) Which shows why he should never be played in 2 straight games (or any MLB game for that matter). Nothing is worse than overexposing (no sexual jokes) a career bench player. The scary thing is that Timo will almost definitely be in the lineup tomorrow.

Timo gets a great pitch to hit, and pops it up. What a worthless MLB starter.

The only person to ever have less protection in New York than PK was Shawn Kemp when he was in town to face the Knicks.
