QUOTE (scenario @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 01:15 PM) Is the radar gun right today? If so, Freddy just threw a 93mph fastball to Hardy. Probably why he has looked so good, if his fastball has any velocity whatsoever he's a pretty good pitcher. It's when his arm is half dead that he has to be all cunning and guile with his arsenal of junkballz

Here's where Nick Punto goes all MVP on our asses

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 01:06 PM) Good point. Not like we won the 1st 2 games of that series 6-2 and 7-4. it was just one game, i was being facetious, why so serious

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 01:05 PM) Please someone tell me why Kotsay is hitting 5th in this lineup? Would any other manager in baseball do that? Eric Wed... oh wait

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 01:01 PM) We never really had issues with the Twins at home. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=290521104

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 01:00 PM) Now can we please stop acting like the Twins never f*** up on the bases? That's twice in the last two games. Lining into a DP on a H&R isn't a f*** up on the bases, IMO

Mauer exchanges kind words with Alexei. JM: I have butterflies in my pocket. AR: OMGRLY

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 12:53 PM) Most likely by Thome. remniscent of the last time Freddy lost a 1-hitter

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 12:52 PM) Nothing. At least we are averaging a hit an inning!!! Progress at this rate the twins will win with a solo jack

Not even an attempt at stealing 2nd, and Beckham strikes out (again) I don't understand why this team can't comprehend how to play a god damn baseball game

steal here, for the love of god, steal here

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 12:45 PM) Hudson made the same play as Rios last night. Both of them didnt see the ball, it happens. Rios wasnt even half way, he just was running to 3rd. Last night we thought maybe Hudson thought their were 2 outs (not 1), Rios on the other hand just didnt seem to see the ball at all. yeah it was pretty obvious that Rios just didnt pick up the ball, he must've saw it dropping or something, i agree with you there

Last time Freddy looked this good was against the Angels, I'm sure some of you guys remember the significance of that game............... Edit: Not talking about 2005, I believe it was 2006 or 2007

1 for our last 11 with RISP, that's brutal If it isn't for lack of its, its baserunning mistakes, this team just isn't working well for whatever reason

Brain fart.

He's so good right now

Freddy getting the calls that Baker wasn't, what the hell. And this is a Cuzzi-Crew, am I in the bizarro world today?? Next thing you'll tell me is that we win this game!

Hopefully Sox fans will be smarter about it than just hating on Kotsay He is who he is, it's Ozzie who puts him in the lineup and Kenny for not giving Ozzie a better alternative

Yuck, can't say I'm surprised, nice weak grounder there Mark.

Kotsay hitless on the year, 0-6 against Baker, and he's our 5-hitter when Rios has been killing the ball lately Makes sense, typical ozzie lineup

Just wanted to repeat what I said yesterday with regards to the blackout restrictions, for people who live in IL and have an MLB.tv package I know todays game is on CSN(+), but for games on WCIU where those of us who aren't in Chicago can't see the games, but have an MLB.tv package, google Ultrasurf, it'll allow you to connect to MLB.com through a proxy and allow you to watch the Sox games online

QUOTE (watchtower41 @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 10:48 AM) When was the last time you've seen a Sox team do that? 5 days ago? So once a week, and we're good! lol

This game could get ugly early because Freddy is gonna have to go 6 innings, and if he starts getting hit around we'll end up on the receiving end of a rather nasty loss unless we start scoring runs. Bullpen can't be used before the 6th today, that's what Ozzie just said

Small sample size, but just throwing it out there Our relievers have an ERA of 3.94, definitely not terrible, not in the slightest. Our starters ERA is 2.25. Just hit the damn ball and we'll win games, it's as simple as that really

CSN+?? No more FOX Saturday baseball?
