This has been a pretty bad game all around. Hitting sorta sucks again although it's at least not a debacle like yesterday and a couple of games in Detroit. Contreras wasn't very good either, giving up runs twice after we scored the previous inning.

QUOTE (quickman @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 03:17 PM) Yes I am saying he can barely handle 3rd base which he has played for years. But hell you know better. it will never happen because baseball teams actually know what there players can do and its not like he is hitting the cover off the ball in the minors. Quite frankly I cannot wait for Crede to sign long term and we trade Fields away so I don't have to hear this stuff like he is some kind of savior. Fields is no savior. Don't hold your breath on Crede, though.

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 03:14 PM) Seriously, I'm getting tired of all these suggestions to play Fields in random positions. He's a third baseman. Why do Nick Swisher, Alexei Ramirez, Pablo Ozuna, and Brian Anderson play multiple positions? 1B isn't rocket science.

QUOTE (quickman @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 03:12 PM) because he plays so much first base now, and he played so much first base in the past. Comon your kidding right. are you sure your not VAFAN? The guy can barely play good third base, and he couldn't play the outfield. Now you want him to just step in at first? The Sox need another hitter. I'd much rather have Fields' bat in the lineup over Anderson or Uribe. 1B is the easiest position to handle in the majors. Are you saying that Fields would need a season of preparing for 1b to be able to hold it down? That's ridiculous.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 03:07 PM) Because you remove Swisher from the OF I am saying play Fields at 1B.

QUOTE (quickman @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 03:04 PM) actaully if you DL him you will need an outfielder. How's DL a 1B necessitate bringing up an outfielder.

QUOTE (quickman @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 02:03 PM) konerko with a strained Oblique, so now he has a hand and a stomach, that should make for some good at bats. He's the oldest 32 year old in the league. DL him and bring up Fields.

QUOTE (quickman @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 01:58 PM) wait until we play the cubs at wrigley. We are going to get smoked. It's going to be "one of those" series.

QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 01:56 PM) Other than Thome and Uribe, I think our hitters are attacking Cook the right way. We can win this game. Well, Cook is likely done now so it's going to be against the Rockies bullpen.

I am going to go against the grain here and predict a 1-2-3 inning from the Sox.

Buckle it down Jose. We need this game so bad.

Maybe Cook is a little rattled?

Thank you god!

QUOTE (quickman @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 02:27 PM) still no word on konerkos injury? major suckage

Just f***ing terrible Contreras. Unbelivable.

Leadoff walk. We better not be giving up that momentum killing run right back to the Rockies.

A run! Please do something Uribe.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 02:12 PM) What a difference a week makes. Should've kept my mouth shut when I said I thought this team was for real after the 7 straight wins. This offense is just too sporadic. It's not really sporadic at all. They've been bad for most of the season outside of week of hot hitting.

We might get to Cook by the 12th inning.

We've got a threat going!

Here's that clutch 2 out, 0 on hit to set up the 3rd out from the next hitter.

This is worse than our series @Tampa. Walker should be fired on the spot.

QUOTE (southsidesoxfan1983 @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 12:40 PM) im sorry but im so sick of watching this crap on tv im glad i have work today so i dont have to watch this trash. have a great and safe fathers day to all. You are not the only one. I have the ability to watch but can't bring myself to do it because of what it would do to me.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 12:20 PM) You seem to be basking in this latest streak, so no need to tell you how to be a fan. As long as you are enjoying yourself, thats what it's all about, right? Gold star for you. You are the greatest of all the Sox fans.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 15, 2008 -> 01:16 PM) Enjoy yourself. Yeah, just waiting on more words of wisdom from you telling me how to be a fan.
