Milkman delivers

QUOTE(qwerty @ May 22, 2005 -> 04:04 PM) Vizcaino has had excuses all year. I wonder now if he should be gone with Timo when Frank gets back. How much is Viz making? At this point, he should be paying us to pitch.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ May 22, 2005 -> 04:05 PM) Terrible inning for us. I think a L is in the cards today. We're going to PH someone to start off the next inning, then it's the top of the order. We're definitely not out of it, yet. They just have to shut down the Cubs' offense for a few innings.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ May 22, 2005 -> 04:02 PM) i agree, vizcy has been downright awful, no idea why ozzie still believes in him, he tends to do that with some guys (ie: timo). Pulling Bmac was the right move though No doubt about pulling McCarthy. Just should've used someone else. Damn it, Uribe.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ May 22, 2005 -> 03:58 PM) no, i'm not mad. 1) we already won the series, i don't expect my team to sweep every series. 2) I wasn't expecting a W today, with a ML debut AND prior on the mount. 3) That ball was a flyout in every other park. 4) we're the best team in baseball, i'm not gonna flip out after a loss, we're due. I wasn't expecting to win at all, either. And I'm happy that we won the series, but I'm not mad that we might lose this game. It's how this happened. Viz is downright bad this year and he had no right to be in there. When I saw him warming up the last inning, I was wondering why he would come in. Oh, well... First two men on, Dye up.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ May 22, 2005 -> 03:54 PM) i'm starting to agree with you, way too many drama queens. You're not mad? I can honestly say I haven't been this mad the whole year. McCarthy was having a great game. Vizcaino has been truly awful this year, and he had no reason to be in this game. He can't even be a mop-up guy because he can't last more than 1 inning. At least we can still win this game. f***in Viz.

What is wrong with Ozzie? It's clear that Viz sucks this year, yet he brings him into close games. f***, I'm so pissed. I threw my coke off the wall.

Get rid of Vizcaino, he sucks.

Great, Vizcaino.

I love Pods' speed. What I don't love is that this ump is squeezing McCarthy a little in his ML debut.

Hey, the Bears released Edinger...it's about time. McCarthy goes 3-0 to Blanco.

Dye is so on fire right now!

S-O-L-I-D inning for McCarthy. Let's get some runs!

Despite that it was a double play, AJ smoked that pitch. We've been smoking a lot of Prior's pitches today.

AHHHHHHHHH! Derrek Lee is pretty good at 1st.

PK walks, men on 1st and 2nd for AJP with 1 out.

I've been saying this all year, and I'll keep on saying it: I LOVE IGUCHI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And good pick, Moose.

Wow, I hate Wrigley. Burnitz almost got a homer on a flyball that carried forever. McCarthy through three innings. Pretty good, so far

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 22, 2005 -> 02:52 PM) You suck Joe. What a great AB Yeah, he's certainly reverted to his former, worthless self.

Though Prior looks dominant, some of our guys seem to be just missing hits/homers. Maybe things will get better.

Before this year started, I did a little math and found out that, if Buehrle pitches until he's 40, he's on pace to win 324 games. Of course, that's only if he keeps up this pace. I believe he'll only get better as he gets a little older, but he'll most likely get worse when he gets too old. It could work out that it averages out to about 300 wins, though.

QUOTE(Yoda @ May 21, 2005 -> 06:22 PM) Let's go Brandon!!! Watch him strike out like 16 batters... If McCarthy somehow strikes out double digit batters, Cubs "fans" would fall in love with him. We all know how they feel about K's.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ May 21, 2005 -> 05:21 PM) Nice to have all these options. Nuke, I believe you're due a shot of Jack.

Contreras really stepped it up. This game was huge, in my book. With BMac tomorrow, we needed to get as many wins before it to keep us hot. The Count gave us a gem.

Hell Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now the pressure's off of McCarthy.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
