TLAK Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 What a ridiculas start time after a night game for a team playing for the Division title. This should be the best baseball of the year but you have Kong, Thome, Dye, Pierzynski, Mauer, and White not in the game. These line ups look like they are from Arizona. Chicago WSox Scott Podsednik LF .262 Brian Anderson CF .230 Ross Gload 1B .320 Josh Fields 3B .083 Rob Mackowiak DH .283 Tadahito Iguchi 2B .278 Alex Cintron SS .286 Ryan Sweeney RF .192 Sandy Alomar C .209 Jon Garland P (17-7, 4.61) Minnesota Nick Punto 3B .295 Luis Rodriguez 2B .234 Mike Redmond C .351 Michael Cuddyer RF .282 Justin Morneau 1B .320 Torii Hunter CF .279 Jason Kubel DH .244 Jason Tyner LF .312 Jason Bartlett SS .310 Matt Garza P (3-5, 5.32) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoeLessRob Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Interesting line up but once again why is the oldest player on our team still playing? Well .... Jose has probally 10 years on him but still ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjm676 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 That's one F'ed up lineup. At least Mack is DH'ing. One more to 90. Yippee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I bet Jim Leyland is happy about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 (edited) First opportunity I have to watch Garza for an entire game. I wouldn't have been confident regardless of the lineup, but with Konerko/Dye/Thome gone 10 strikeouts from Garza woudn't surprise me.

Heads22 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I like Brian as a 2-hole hitter. Let's see if he can't produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see Fields vs. Garza. Best of both organizations right here. Fields doubles, but is stranded. Ground rule double saved a run.

G&T Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Is there a reason why MLB.tv is blacked out for this game? I thought it was suposed to be played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Fields and Sweeney have looked far more impressive than Anderson did during his first several weeks of major league experience. Both appear to have a sense of plate discipline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ginger Kid Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I'm just not impressed by Garza. Or Bonser for that matter. Minny's going three and out next week against NY. Book it. QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Sep 30, 2006 -> 09:50 AM) Fields and Sweeney have looked far more impressive than Anderson did during his first several weeks of major league experience. Both appear to have a sense of plate discipline. Anderson had it handed to him too fast, IMO. He didn't earn it. And his reluctance to go play winter ball after tanking so bad this season really leaves me in doubt about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santo=dorf Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Garza sucks. There I said it. I can only imagine the reaction of some of our posters if a Sox prospect when 2.2 IP, 8 H, 2 BB, 4 ER, and 3 K's (two off of someone like Brian Anderson) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 After watching the first 3 innings, I came to this conclusion: boy, did our starting LF and CF suck this year. In a game where we're playing basically our entire bench, Pods and Anderson are the worst players in our lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I'd really be interested in watching Haegar pitch. Whether today or tomorrow it doesn't matter. Just like to see how his knuckle works in the controlled conditions of the dome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheChrisSamsa Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 its good to see our youngsters taking care of business. Hope for years to come.. These youngins along with the fans still showing up to games should give us the resources to be competitive for a good amount of time.. unless someone screws up big time. P.s. Pods is 0-4.. just throwin that out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
