  1. One thing for sure, Leyland wont let this game get away.
  2. QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 09:07 PM) Well investing in the draft and the international signing period is how they have been able to fill their roster out. They seem to have decent scouts.
  3. QUOTE (stretchstretch @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 09:05 PM) but isn't that what's so infuriating? Every time we play the tigers i keep asking myself how in the hell are we staying ahead of these guys, they have much better pitching and offense? then we go and sweep NY in NY, and they get swept by KC? The Sox have done the little things much better. Most of the season this is one of the best Sox teams in fundamentals we have seen.
  4. Where do the Tigers come up with all of these guys throwing in the upper 90's.
  5. QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 09:01 PM) Can the Sox trade Dunn and then sign David Ortiz If the Sox don't sign AJ, I still believe they'll go with the tandem of Flowers and Kurt Suzuki (once a Sox killer, always a Sox killer) Dunn would be the first guy I would try to trade.
  6. QUOTE (Baron @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:58 PM) We went through this before fathom but I think Youk is really our best option there. Is there anyone in the minors not named Morel that could be 3 years away?
  7. QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:52 PM) No matter what, this has been a positive year. In no way am I giving up on the year, even if the Sox lose tomorrow. Far too many strange things have happened with the Tigers losing to inferior opponents this year, and they also have to face the red hot A's next week. Plain and simple, the Tigers are a HORRIBLE match-up for the Sox this year. 2011 before it was the Twins It's hard for me not to label this organization as mental midgets It would be nice of the games were close instead of total embarassment. I can't rid labeling them mental midgets.
  8. QUOTE (Baron @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:51 PM) Like I said before. You dont have a damn clue about whats going to happen. Get over it. Definitely. The Tiger have yet to show any surge. Probably not going to happen this season unless they play us 3 more series.
  9. QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:46 PM) I'm just glad we can put serviceable 5th starters out there...that used to be a freaking nightmare and Peavy (knock on wood) finally pitching a full season
  10. QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:45 PM) Why is that good? only from Reinsdorf point of view. Blame the fans when the team sucks. I guess some people outside of the two Sox forums are sick of a decade's worth of mental midget baseball or just not being good enough.
  11. QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:42 PM) After 2008, where we haven't seen any significant improvement from Danks and Floyd. I'd say the Tigers coach has done a much better job. Plus their scouting of pitchers is excellent. (I'm leaving Verlander out of this equation)
  12. QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:36 PM) I'm stunned that Omogrosso and Septimo couldn't get out two of the best hitters on the planet. Someone needs to ask Cooper why Septimo seemed to just start warming up after Cabrera's "shocking" single off of Omogrosso. It was shades of when Reed was brought in when he wasn't warmed up vs the Mariners. Anyone ever think that Cooper lost his magic wand?
  13. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:27 PM) We need a postponed Game 162 against the Tigers with the White Sox being down by one going into the last game...Sale versus Verlander/Scherzer in Chicago. Win Game 163 vs. Detroit and then storm through the playoffs. Bears vs. Packers tomorrow. No one in Chicago cares about Sale vs. Verlander.
  14. QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:25 PM) It's worth asking whether head-to-head is a valid way to measure it. A team may not be good in general, but the individual matchup of two teams allows the generally worse team to be better head-to-head. Is it more important that you can beat a wide variety of teams or that you beat a particular, good one? That is the beauty of baseball. It's beyond annoying though that whoever battles the Sox for 1st always b**** slaps them. There has to be a way to fix this.
  15. QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:18 PM) You just realized this I amazed actually. They are very good on paper and they are in 2nd place which many label the weakest division in baseball. I find it more impressive the less experienced players on the Sox have fared better than veterans when it comes to pitching. You knew Sale would be good but not Cy Young candidate good.
  16. Maybe Detroit is a better team that's under achieving.
  17. Well on the bright side, FLoyd's return looks promising. I still don't know why they didn't walk Jackson.
  18. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 07:55 PM) Well, this is a familiar scenario against the Tigers this year. Crooked numbers put up vs. our pitchers when they've been cruising along. At least Scherzer is already over 100 pitches at this point...but it's not like their bullpen is garbage. Last night was the turning point. We are back to being their b****es.
  19. QUOTE (RZZZA @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 07:46 PM) oh come on. when they hit they find the gap. when we hit it...grr We would too if we had a potential triple crown winner in our lineup. We use to see that with the Big Hurt.
  20. QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 07:34 PM) Austin Jackson terrifies me. Also, this is an absurdly quick hook for Gavin. I don't like this. He has the most RBIs aganst the Sox. The manager is starting to cost them more games.
  21. I would totally freak if they beat Max and V.
  22. Hard to believe Max leads the team in giving up homers.
