The Twins bullpen is spectacular.

QUOTE(BFirebird @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 09:08 PM) Uribe should have been PH for...I don't know about Anderson. Mack in center is just brutal...especially in this park. You have to roll the dice in that situation. If the Sox don't score another run, Willie Mays in his prime in CF won't make a difference.

It would be nice if Pods was standing on 3rd. He has a hard time picking the ball up. On Konerko's double yesterday in which Pods scored, he did pull up at second for some reason before taking off again.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 09:04 PM) He has absolutely no sense of urgency. He's saving every lefty for Nathan. I think I'd rather take my chances with this guy.

Ozzie bats the 2 guys who have absolutely no chance of hitting this guy.

Until last season when they were nails on the road, the Sox had a much better home record than road record. Are our announcers complaining about getting pitches, Hawk a few times and Farmer tonight, an admission that the White Sox have been guilty of the same thing? I think when Garcia is out on the mound, there is an incredible amount of meatballs to be hit. The Sox are lucky the Twins have only scored 4.

I would just like Ozzie to say Freddy didn't do the job, just once. And yank him tonight while they still have a chance to win the game.

Nice job Freddy. Keep up the fine work. Comeback and have Freddy in a rush to give it back.

Uribe will be lucky to foul one off here.

What are the chances any runs the Sox score this inning, Freddy gives right back?

OMG Torii comes up empty against the Sox for maybe the first time ever.

QUOTE(iguchi=dank @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 08:39 PM) i'm with you 110%. just odd seeing the tigers possibly blow a game. I am totally focused on the wild card, but hey, just throwin it out there and the main thing is I don't want to watch Freddy pitch. sorry They blew it all right.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 08:34 PM) No personal attacks allowed. I can't believe I had never thought of it before. Piece of dog ____?

Bonser shows big game Freddy how you're supposed to pitch when your offense gets you the lead.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 08:30 PM) Garcia has let the Twins scatter 8 hits thru 4 innings. He's a big game guy. 4 innings 8 hits 3 runs, thats good, just listen to Ozzie on the postgame.

QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 08:29 PM) twins announcers think anyone can steal on freddy. they are right The opposition really is doing the Sox a favor when they don't send every runner that gets to first base against him. AJ and Alomar don't exactly have guns, and the combination means an automatic steal.

Ron Santo has a 50/50 shot at stealing with Freddy on the mound.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 08:26 PM) Lead = gone It was so predictable.

Crede saves the day at least temporarily.

Make sure you shove a few more double cheeseburgers down your throat Freddy. Then you won't be expected to take one step off the mound.

The greatest rotation ever assembled has been prone to giving up the lead after the Sox offense comes from behind a lot this season.

That didn't take long. Get McCarthy up. This is a big game.

Surprised that one didn't go into CF

Freddy in trouble yet again.

I wonder what Terry Ryan would be able to do if they actually gave him some cash to work with. Considering he traded a minor league pitcher who never faced 1 batter in the major leagues for Santana and got Liriano, Nathan and Bonser for AJ, this guy will be a GM until he no longer wants to.
