3E8 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I don't think the Sox have ever faced Blanton before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chisox72 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 QUOTE(3E8 @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 02:24 PM) I don't think the Sox have ever faced Blanton before. They haven't. Which makes me even more nervous about how they will play against him. I so WANT to quit worrying about any of this s***, but like a crackhead, I will be in front of the TV this afternoon watching...

BearSox Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 what the f*** you f***ing idiot Ozzie. Why the f*** is Podsednik still starting. Ozzie, you are the only manager in the world that would still have Podsednik starting. and sorry for the swearing, but this team and manager are really starting to piss me off.

fathom Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 This lineup makes sense...keep our 2 worst hitters in the game (Pods and Uribe), bench PK and Iguchi, and move Anderson up to the 7th spot in the order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Gload and Cintron should be playing, but not in the place of Konerko and Iguchi, but in the place of Podsednik and Uribe. The Lineup should be... 1. Cintron, SS 2. Iguchi, 2B 3. Dye, RF 4. Thome, DH 5. Konerko, 1B 6. Crede, 3B 7. Pierzynski, C 8. Gload, 1B 9. Anderson, CF But, that would make too much sense.

WhiteSoxfan1986 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Detroit just tied up the game with a HR off Chris Ray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Amazing AB by Pods to start the game off. At least we're one game closer to seeing the end of his Sox career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Will someone please tell me how Gload can't leadoff? He just got a basehit and got to second on a steal. When was the last time you saw Podsednik do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just got a basehit and got to second on a steal. When was the last time you saw Podsednik do that. Because Ozzie likes his leadoff hitters to be scrawny, weak hitting guys who he thinks can bunt and steal bases. For those reasons, I'm predicting we'll sign Pierre this offseason.

Flash Tizzle Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Thank God Konerko isn't up here. He'd just love to end a rally with a delicious DP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 And that is where not having Konerko in the lineup screws us over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chisox72 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Great decision by Cora there..... This game is going to be painful, isn't it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Why are we challenging a guy with a great throwing arm on a shallow flyball? Also, someone might want to tell Crede that this season didn't end in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I don't blame Gload. You have to do everything within your power to scratch across a run, especially considering our position. Anyone honesetly believe Pierzysnki would have had a basehit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 That was a perfect example of everything that's wrong with this team. A pathetic leadoff hitter and terrible coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the chances are good. It would be the best thing that could happen to this organization. It's amazing to me how much slack Ozzie's being given lately. It was refreshing to read Phil Rogers' article blast him for the awful managing yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the chances are good. I think KW has been as perplexed as a lot of us have been with some of Ozzie's decisions this year. I don't think he'll ever fire him for performance, but I have the feeling if some of these decisions continue, he wouldn't mind Ozzie saying something stupid enough where he had to go.
