It dosn't help to try and target one player for this teams failure. I don't think Jose is the problem in fact he actually is probably one of the better ones on the team. He may botch plays once in awhile, but who doesn't. Jose has also played some great defense and provided offense when we needed it. We are losing becasue the team hasn't picked each other up lately and not because of one guy.

But Jose hasn't helped pick up the team... in fact, he's HURT the team and made the team try to pick him up...

So your saying he's going to hit one now? Seriously though, there are 60 games left. Some of you guys are sounding like cub fans.

If this was meant for me, no I don't think he's going to hit one now. But if you look, some of his "big" homeruns, basically made up for horrible plays in the field. So he was even, not the great clutch hitter many think he is. He sucks, and is really proving it the last 4 or 5 games.

I am sick to death of tying the game/going ahead and then giving it back and then some.

But that is what a TEAM is supposed to do when someone is slumping. This team has three hits tonight. THREE hits from 9 hitters. It is not just one guy ot coming through. That's my point.

Anyone that compares Sox fans complaining that their season is over to Cubs fan is mistaken for one thing: as much as I hate to say it, the Cubs have the talent to remain in the race, while the Sox are now the team with the crippling injuries and the poor talent level. Look at the two lineups tonight, and tell me which one you think is better?

I don't care if Jose is 0-4 if he can make the routine plays in the field without giving the other team the game.

exactly, defense should never slump. An occasional error is fine... but this has been ridiculously horrible lately.

You look over at the cubs division and tell me they are still in contension.

The fact is he blew yesterday's game, which cost the Sox 2 games to Minnesota in the standings. He is also the reason they are trailing tonight. All his backers kiss his ass when he hits 3 homeruns in a 17-4 win. Look at how he's done during the biggest stretch of the season. He has 3 hits the last 10 games, all homeruns. How about shortening your stroke and trying to help the team win. He hasn't provided the offense when we needed it. He had no hits against the Twins last series. He defense may cost us 2 consecutive games. His baserunning, usually spectacular, has been brutal of late. He needs to sit down for a while.

Isn't Jose the great team leader? Would it be too much to ask to get 1 single in 10 games?

You must be talking about the wild card race right? Because there is no way they are still in the division race.

What did Infante do? MLB Game Day says in play no out recorded and then shows a line out to Perez? Doesn't help one's attitude when we are losing and then your baseball feed is screwed up too.

he flied out that the umps called a hit, that was then over ruled when oz argued

Go back to games other players have blown. It happens. Big Hurt k's with the winning runs on base, Maggs is out with the tieing run on, Buerhle gives up a homer or three in a game, it happens. They will rebound, at least I hope so.
