QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 11:14 PM) Thank you. I can't believe anyone would still rather have Pods as their leadoff hitter over Sizemore. Sizemore's going to be a 10 time All-Star....and Pods is going to be batting 9th for the Royals in a couple of years. If Pods can't do better than 50% stealing, he'll be lucky to be getting paid by the Schaumburg Flyers.

Save percentages are misleading. Jenks was 6 for 8 last year, and Shingo was 8 for 9. Jenks was obviously the better option.

The tying run always comes to bat.

That last pitch looked like a strike. I bet if Thome had 2 strikes on him and took it, the ump would have rung him up.

A slam can still tie it.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 11:03 PM) How do you know that. None of them had had much success, if any, against Moyer. And one of those starters you were just complaining about saying he isn't doing anything to get the offense going. How much sense does that make? Two of those reserves manufactured 2 of our 3 runs. Has Ozzie ever done anything wrong in your opinion?

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 11:00 PM) Well, scoring 4 or more runs for 13 out of 14 games was pretty awesome. Had to come to an end sometime though. Not too surprised that it was tonight. And we've scored under 3 only once this season. Awesome. The White Sox will never hire you to present their side of an arbitration case.

Thats in the seats at USCF. Too bad the game isn't being played there.

QUOTE(AbeFroman @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 03:32 PM) as anyone mentioned this week how much 9:05 start times suck? Buerhle's pitching. It will go quickly.

Brandon is not sharp tonight, but he is battling.

Jeremy Reed scares me here.

I still can't believe Everett was playing CF for the Sox in 2003.

BMac's face is way too skinny for that hair on his chin

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 25, 2006 -> 12:03 AM) f***, that was WAYYYY to easy...... Sexson,Everret, Beltre........ Everett had a walk off this past weekend I believe., but Sexson is the only one of the three that really concerns me.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 24, 2006 -> 11:57 PM) SOB I have to get up in 6 hours. I have to get up at 5 tomorrow, and I don't drink coffee.

The Sox definitely have the pitching advantage as this game goes on.

Neal looked like last year's version of himself that inning.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 24, 2006 -> 11:50 PM) How the hell is Angel Hernandez still an ump at the major league level? This guy has always sucked with that outside corner. Isn't he the guy that McMichael was all over at the Urinal?

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 24, 2006 -> 11:37 PM) Do we knock Eddie around pretty good, or am I thinking of another closer? Eddie's had som success against the Sox in his career, but he's also been pummelled more than once. The Sox have to crush a pitcher named Putz.

Thank God for Safeco. Politte is meat.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 24, 2006 -> 11:27 PM) I can't believe Anderson is hitting here. I'm a baseball genius

I can't believe Anderson is hitting here.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 24, 2006 -> 11:18 PM) I'm going to be pissed if Mackowiak and Anderson hit in the 9th. There's no way Mackowiak is hitting if Guardado is in. There shouldn't be anyway Anderson hits unless the leadoff man homers even if I was pitching.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 24, 2006 -> 11:11 PM) Why not have Pods run for AJP, and try to get into scoring position? Because he'll get thrown out again

Its not often AJ gets to 3 and 2
