Can we no longer talk about Rowand's Yankee Stadium magic. I just watched the 9th. That was some nice glove work there. He needs to be in there more either at second or left.

All right I kicked the dog and left the house. What did Lillibridge do? PS I do not have a dog.

Oz looked smart last night and will look dumb tonight. This offense sucks so there is nothing you can do I guess. They need to find a closer and stick with it as it will cost them again tonight and this is on Ozzie. Start with your closer. This move backfires on him all of the time.

Morel and Beckham need to be sent down. Platoon Lilli and Omar and leave Teahen at third. Bring up Dayan and grab anyone off the street that can play the infield for a month in a pinch.

His talent looks on par with Floyd and he appears to maybe have a better head on his shoulders. He is doing the job and keeping the Sox in games.

Getting a reliever a hitter in the 8th prior to the ninth is not a bad thing of making sure they are loose and have their stuff which Santos did. Mo has had plenty of 4-6 out saves.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 25, 2011 -> 09:57 PM) ...this was about trying to get a win no matter how it had to be done, for the team and secondly for Humber. Ding, ding, ding....I get the feeling Guillen threw out everything he was thinking especially after they got the insurance run.

They won that is all I care about. Guillen needed this win. Santos got out of the 8th and was left in there to finish it. No problem. This offense still sucks.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 25, 2011 -> 08:21 PM) Considering Peavy is probably a month away at best, I really think the decision will be easy. somehow I think it will as well and the record of the team will be the leading indicator

A Rod made Ozzie's job a lot easier. Ok I'll say it. Humber is why Cooper has job security. Where is Greg Walker's Floyd, Thorton and now MAYBE Humber.

Every game with the Yanks and Red Sox seem to be that way if he guy does not swing it must be a ball.

all ex-Sox players come back to haunt them.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 25, 2011 -> 08:00 PM) I had to maneuver around about 2 dozen down trees and a destroyed greenhouse, but I'm still here in enough time to taunt fathom for saying how Humber had no shot against the Yankees. Don''t mention Gavin Floyd either

QUOTE (robinventura23 @ Apr 25, 2011 -> 07:51 PM) This game has "heartbreaker" written all over it. A three run 8th by the Yanks should do the trick hasn't Mo blown his last two saves?

not sure but he appears to have gotten the offense going.

I am starting to hate this team as Humber is pitching his ass off and we can not score.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 25, 2011 -> 07:24 PM) They'd never DL Mark for his performance, nor should they. Peavy coming back is more myth than realistic right now anytime soon. They are limiting his innings. All things being equal IF Peavy comes back a breather for Mark around the All-Star break will not kill anyone. Almost need to send Morel and Beckham down for the teams good I could give s*** about their psyche this offense is terrible.

Going back to the days of Dye, why do the White Sox struggle every time the ball is in the air. Humber is doing his job and doing it well. He keeps his team in the game. It will be interesting to see what unfolds if Peavy comes back. It might be worth it to DL Mark.

There's the bias. Clearly the main point of contact was the head, which looked it looked like Bickell was going for, in the same fashion you say Torres was head hunting. Exact same thing. It was actually almost the same exact hit. Plus, Bickell left his feet. Oops. You can't have it both ways, but I guess you can try. Sorry, I disagree 100% and has nothing to do with bias. We can be talking about these same hits between other teams and I'd feel the same. Almost the exact hit does not = exact hit. The main point of contact was not the head...it was the shoulder. Yes he was trying to drill him and he had his head down, but the brunt of the contact was at the side of his shoulder with incidental contact made to the head on the follow through. Torres was straight to the head. If you can't see it...you're not looking and Bickell left he's feet after initial contact to jump against the boards. Bickell's last stride is six feet prior to the hit, and he is standing straight up when he hits him. In both plays the defender is lowering their head to skate around the net and the forward is going through the player to make the hit. I thought Torres had more of an intent.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 24, 2011 -> 10:25 PM) That's it, you figured it out, they don't respect Ozzie Guillen anymore. I did not say that. All I said was this isn't working. This is what happened last year and 25-5 runs are not all that common that we can rely on that again. Oh and the White Sox were not in it at the end so the slow start hurt them and it is hurting them again. If a real change is made, and none will, you have to bring in a person the players will respect. This team should be able to win games on talent alone and they are not so something needs to change, what that is I do not know and from the sound of it, neither does Guillen.

Crawford was phenomenal and he may be in the Nucks head as much as the Hawks appear to be in Lou's

Was David Bolland on the ice for all three goals as well as setting up the penalty shot. Luongo looks lost.

He did not get the goal but Hoss made that play!!!!!!!!

What the f*** is going on out there?
