One beer down, who else feels the need to drink watching these games lately?

"Cautious optimism" will be the theme for this game tonight.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 07:57 PM) Inning 5-6. You should know better than that. Touche, same goes for innings 5-6, 3-4, 7-8, etc. Just pitch a good game Javy and do us proud.

Boy if Javy gives this lead right back here in the 2nd, I'm going to scream and possibly break something I'll later regret.

QUOTE(beautox @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 07:50 PM) I too feel that way, should i feel bad about it? Nah, sometimes it's all that gets me through the night lately. Paul Konerko's real good.

get up!!!!!

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 07:47 PM) We definitely need a new 1-2 punch next year..... Yeah, I still have confidence in this team this year, but I'm already very excited about next year, just because of who I know we won't have.

goodnight

I'm waiting to see if Jose can pull out of this with some masterful pitching. If not, time to turn this off and save my blood pressure from going through the roof.

Why so many first pitch outs? Why oh why...

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 06:44 PM) I think that's one of the biggest problems with our pitchers. They don't attack anyone. They screw around and screw around, treat everyone like they are a combination of Ted Williams and Babe Ruth. I would like to see our pitchers be aggressive, throw inside, and try to minimize pitch counts. I wonder if Don Cooper reads this board...you might be onto something!

First pitch swinging. Let's make this a real easy inning for Verlander so Jose can get right back out there.

I think all that hair of Magglio's is creating a resistance that is costing him a step in the outfield. I wish he'd cut that.

JERMAINE HAS GONE DEEP VERY RECENTLY THOUGH!

It'd be awfully nice not to run ourselves out of an inning once in awhile. When's the last time this team actually had a stolen base?

Tomorrow: The difficult third game for the sweep. Hope AJ is ineffective like usual this year. Go Jose!!

Wish this game would just end.

McGowan has little idea as to where the strike zone is half the time.

But he can't hit RH, Mack should be in.

BA 2B!!!

Here we go.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 5, 2006 -> 04:21 PM) I'd rather see Uribe at 3b, what is OZ thinking? or is something wrong with Juan? Probably in Ozzie's doghouse, which is where he can stay for awhile, afaic.

Pablo nearly botching that pop up doesn't help either. GO JAVY!!! GOOD INNING!

Pablo at 3rd?????????

Into the pen already.
