Not to sound condesending but there are about 5 posts on this. But you are correct.

I have bashed Konerko a ton this season but I feel he is the only legitimate hitter we have right now. He needs to be resigned at the cost of a pitcher if need be.

Cleveland had 23,000 there last night.

f*** it if we don't win it ain't my fault. Correct me if I'm wrong; 1 win = WC tie 2 win= WC 3 win = Division (Bos or NY need to win all 5 to have best record in AL over us) Regardless of what any other team does.

17-9 O's How do you think Yankee fans arer feeling?.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 08:51 PM) The Baseball Gods gave us this night, and we still f***ed up. NO YOU HAVE THAT BACKWARD THE BASEBALL GODS ARE GIVING US THIS NIGHT. We are the hunted and lost first the others (2 of 3) all followed suit. How pissed are the Indian fans right now????

to Kansas City , you blow the lead to go down 4-3, bust ass to tie the score 4-4 in the 9th see the teams around you are all winning (Bos, NY and at the time the Sox were up 1-0 I think) then lose a ball in the sun to lose a huge game. This made the "demoralizing" loss last night not seem so bad. This and Boston has a doubleheader today. Sorry if this is a dumb post, but it made me feel good so there.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Sep 26, 2005 -> 11:48 AM) I read on one site that head to head is the tie breaker when both teams would get in. A game is played only if it means one team would go home. That is what I read as well. BOTH need to be guaranteed a spot in the playoffs in order to throw out the tiebreaker.

Tigers site has Johnson. Also Ordonez and Guillen should be back in the lineup.

The thing is at this point in time KW has made up for every bad move by having a team that will win over 94 games while bringing very few through the farm system and trading for a few others. This team has been assembled using very resource (FA, trade, farm, video(Iguchi)) out there. In 2003 he had the best team in baseball in my mind, that is all he can do. KW's trump to any trade Jose Contrearas AND cash for Estaban Loiaza.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Sep 26, 2005 -> 10:46 AM) Honestly, there is every reason for him to be playing consistently, only from the back of the order. Without Everett, this team could find itself in trouble in the post-season. However, if Everett can get hot (and the only way he does this is by fighting through the slump with AB's) than he could turn into another nice bat in the playoffs. I'm not saying he should be hitting 3rd, I like it where he has been the past couple games. Unfortunately he doesn't and with that attitude it does not bode well for him breaking out of his slump. I agree he needs to play through it but he has to want to do the right things. After the first 6 swing and misses yesterday he should have at least taken 1 strike. Something he did not do all day.

If you have game 5 you are SOL. 1 and 2 now equal 3 and 4.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 23, 2005 -> 12:59 PM) If you did get Torre, then we'd also likely raise payroll. I can't see Torre taking over for a team without a top 10 payroll, etc. Am I the only one who gets way too happy when anyone suggests Ozzie might not be back? If his replacement is cheap managerial knock off yes. Leyland (good friend of JR by the way) no.

KW put a contending product on the field in 2003 and 2005, unfortunatly he was hamstrung by his manger in 2003 and may be once again 2005. Although I think he should've gotten a bat, the manager is not putting his players and team in a position to win.

The only way Ozzie goes is if he resigns, way to much dough to eat for a firing. Leyland I think gets the job. I would pay for Lou but that would make to much sense as he knows how to run a pitching staff. If Ozzie goes does his relative (Garcia) get moved for the bat we need, Tex or Blaylock?

QUOTE(Felix @ Sep 22, 2005 -> 09:07 PM) What a fan you are! Remember before this game when everyone wasnt expecting the Sox to even score? What happened, got too used to being in the game? I am just calling it like I see it. Do you understand that our manager vomits from not being able to handle the pressure because we can not get a real manager. Are you watching this s***. Watch three guys swing as hard as they can right here and look like fools.

Thanks Aaron. Nice job pods start in the bullpen next time. The epitome of a choke job. Sorry but f*** THIS TEAM. I have not said it before they are losers and this is a loser franchise. We may back into the playoffs but if I hear again we have the best record in the AL and won such and such games right now this team has a manager that is scared of everyone and everything and his team is following his lead. f*** THIS TEAM AND FRANCHISE AS A WHOLE.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 22, 2005 -> 08:59 PM) I'm seeing an absolute choke job before my very eyes. Even the most positive Sox fans have to be just astonished with what's taking place on a nightly basis now. Of course, it all starts at the top, where our manager vomits because he gets criticized by the fans. He vomits because he can't handle the pressure. Which scares the s*** out of me that he is leading this team.

Throw the fastball up.

Yeah gold glover my ass. He Dye and Podsednik are so grossly over rated, by the sox only.

Nope 5-3 DP nice small ball and s***ting hitting. They pitched him in and he went right along with him. Swung at 3 balls down and in that he couldn't do anything with it.

Come on steal.

Run Willie Double Steal We need a hit either way

Ugh.

1/2 done
