Alexei's time has come.

Tigers lost .

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 08:12 PM) Now who pitches? O. Do tell !

When it comes to scoring in extra innings we get the kinder gentler Sox (i.e. pussified)

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 08:07 PM) is it still 3-3? Si

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 08:07 PM) Nice to see Bobby work himself out of that jam... Rios will be the hero here... I can't believe someone thought of that before me.

I'm calling a Rios walk off

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:58 PM) Jermaine just looks washed up. At this point, I have no interest in the Sox bringing him back for anything more than 5 million a year as a DH. I'm hesitant to even call it a slump anymore. The guy has hit a wall. I wonder if he even talks to Rios. That situation could be messing with them both.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:56 PM) Yeah, that's what I meant. And I'm obviously not factoring in defense and base running. Just hitting. If just just hitting I'll go with PK. He's been pretty consistent all year with the average and power numbers.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:52 PM) First walk off homer of the year? I'll take 4 walks.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:51 PM) He's right there. But Pods has basically been doin' it from start to finish. Has he hit a legitimate slump yet? Maybe one at the most. Start meaning when we picked him off the scrap heap not the beginning of the season.

Walk off win time.

Thanks ump.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:47 PM) Other than Beckham, who's even close? I guess you could throw AJ in there. Paulie , Dye 1st half MVP 2nd half MDP (most disgusting player)

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:40 PM) why the f*** would ozzie bring that guy in? You could say that about anyone he brought in.

Everyone was pretty quiet when we had the lead . The chance to gripe brought everyone out of the woodwork. Do people like b****ing more than being complimentary ? Pods 4 hits . Nice !

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:35 PM) I thought Oz would leave in Thornton since Freddy is his relative. Thornton has basically been used for 1 inning this year, lately a little bit more and Oz went with the matchup . Thorny isn't great against righties. Can't risk injury to Thornton.

I smell a Cust bomb. Even with 2 strikes on him.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:33 PM) OMG. Poor Oz cost Freddy a win. Bringing in Pena is not a good option at any time. Nice job, Pena. Way to cost Fred a win. Oz should slap himself upside the head. You already said no Linebrink or Dotel so now its Ozzies fault for bringing in Pena whenCarrasco or Nunez or Williams were the other options ?

Thank Pena. NOT

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:25 PM) Do you think we are a worse team than Oakland? Why the struggle? Oaklands got a better bullpen and better D. That tends to even things out. Plus we've been working with Torres , Garcia, Carrasco and what not as 4th , 5th starters since the Richard trade. Add a slumping Buerhle , Dye, Rios, Beckham . Throw in the lousy D and bullpen problem and yea we're just as bad as Oakland.

Maybe Thorny can bring us to Jenks.

So Pena it is.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:18 PM) Hopefully Oz wants to get Fred the win and stay away from Linebrink/Dotel. -- Poor Jermaine has to be put out of his misery. Give him a month off. Send him home early. Staying away from Linebrink and Dotel means Williams or Hudson or Pena. Pick your poison.

Kick the offense balls.
