fathom Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 No reason to burn out MB on a day where he has nothing on his pitches. Might as well save him an extra few pitches, and bring in Viz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elcaballo45 Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Why in the hell is Buerhle now just getting pulled? He's given up 14 hits! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackie hayes Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Yeah, I don't see any harm in pulling MB now. He's getting hit (uh-oh, and again...) and he's already rolled up over 100 pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell Buehrle had nothing today, still made it to the 7th and killed himself with that error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After next weekend, we are done with Oakland for the season. After the way they've played us the past few seasons, 2-4 to this point is better than anything we've seen in a while. We need to beat them at home 2 out of 3 next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 I suggest we stop playing games in Oakland. We should just forfeit all the games there, and forget about the one possible win me may get. The rest would be a lot better than maybe one win and the pure frustration that comes with playing there.

CWSGuy406 Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Win or lose, we still take at least four out of six on the road trip. You say that at the beginning of it, and I'm pretty sure most people would be extremely pleased. Just gotta go home and take care of business vs. Tampa and Oakland (again).

aboz56 Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Rooney makes a great point. We've played 6 times in Oakland in each of the past two seasons, yet they've only played us at home 3 times each of those years. Someone f***ed up the schedule making process. That's just pure bulls***. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 God, I just wish Tampa would've not rolled over and taken at least one game from the Twins. That makes these two losses seem even worse, as if they possibly could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need Vlad and the Angels to step it up against them this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 And Vizcaino still sucks. I hate these games where there's absolutely no silver lining. Viz has to go soon, we can't have such a terrible pitcher on our team when we're still not sure how Shingo will be. Perhaps if we get Schmidt, we can get Eyre with him.

Yoda Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Is there a bigger s***hole than the McAfee Colliseum? The Urinal comes to mind, but not even Wrigley has done this kind of s*** to the Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Well guys this is just one of those games, Konerko was complaining about the double in the 6th inning, he thought it was foul. Widger complained too. But bad things happened and probably would've happened even if the ball was foul. The Sox need to make sure this type of scheduling doesn't happen again too. Not making excuses but a trip like this is totally out of whack ... 3 games to Detroit, fly out to Oakland for three, and then come back and play at home on a Monday. That is some really messed up scheduling, not to mention what Rooney said about 6 games in Oakland vs. 3 in Chicago two years in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
