southsideirish71 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 On the scores website, they have Orlando Cabrera on the Boers and Bernstein show today. He basically told a not so good story of how our team sits back, when we get down early its all over, and how they brush off losses with no killer instinct. Listen to that for a minute, and then realize we need to make sure that some players need to leave as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:25 AM) Come on. It was obvious he was trying to challenge him, not rip him. If Javy can't respond in this situation, he's worthless. It was just a no win situation for anyone. There's a reason you don't see other coaches/managers do something like that.

Friend of Nordhagen Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 QUOTE (CYGarland @ Sep 23, 2008 -> 08:23 PM) get Javy the f*** out of there No, he stays in the game and throws as many pitches as he has to to not burn out the bullpen. And then he doesn't pitch again this year, even if that means Richard throws a game this weekend. f*** him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almagest Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Sep 23, 2008 -> 07:26 PM) Do you really see this team winning ONE game this series? My whole adult life this team has NEVER been able to beat the Twins in a pennant race. In 2005 the Twins weren't in it... This season is no different. Buckle up boys because we're going to need to win our last 4 games of the year including the makeup game just to make it to a 1 game playoff as we will be trailing by a 1/2 game after Thursday night....Twins will go 5-0 to finish this season after the easy W tonight which we've already given them You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. Seriously. Just stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I wouldn't pull Javy. I'd leave him out there to die. This game is over, and he deserves every second of the embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Sep 23, 2008 -> 07:24 PM) He just doesn't have a winners mentality. I wonder just exactly what it is with him. I don't think its lack of effort. It could be lack of stones. It also could be all those years in Montreal conditioned him for meaningless for the most part, baseball games, and he never learned how to win or perform well in big situations.

I'm not sure the Twins will win out the rest of the year, but I can easily see them sweeping the Sox. This team has a history of choking to the Twins down the stretch.

If these guys can't win at least one game, then f*** them, they don't deserve s***. The only reason they have a lead still in the AL Central is because the Twins have collapsed.

TheBigHurt Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 We are not going to win the division like this, and with Griffey and JD in the outfield. If we play the same way we've been for weeks now, The Twins are winning this division again. It pisses me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend of Nordhagen Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 23, 2008 -> 08:25 PM) I don't care if we lose this game. However, the Twins are completely setting the table for just a monster series. The Sox seem defeated the second they step onto this field. Go Royals this weekend! This is what I was fearing with Javy opening the series. He's so passive -- not the approach you need in a series against these guys, in this place. Now they've set a tone for the week.
