TheChrisSamsa Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 26, 2009 -> 08:45 PM) It's like clockwork with the offensive slump in August. What is up with that? Is anyone held accountable? The guys who pick up the bats and go to the plate are accountable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeavyTime Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 QUOTE (PlunketChris @ Aug 26, 2009 -> 08:42 PM) Carrasco.... but it doesnt matter anymore Carrasco's arm is gonna fall off. Pena, Linebrink, Dotel and Williams all suck. Jenks has to be saved for a (hahaha, yeah right) save situation. It didn't matter which of the 4 came in, we were gonna lose.

hogan873 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I saw Pena coming on and saw who the BoSox had coming up, and I knew it was over. Pena is no match for Ortiz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Not too late to fire Walker. Today's mindset at the plate against a knuckle baller was ridiculous and clearly showed no sign of preperation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 26, 2009 -> 06:45 PM) It wouldn't be the worst thing that could happen. Maybe someone would finally be held accountable. I shouldn't be so pissed at Kenny about Pena. He had to do something to shore up the pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is anyone held accountable? Nope. Hardest working coaching staff in the AL. We just get unlucky that our players stop hitting for months at a time. Its also unlucky that they pucker up after the ASB. Between the cold of April and May, and the pressure of August and September. I hope our guys have a killer June and July to get in their numbers for the year.

Flash Tizzle Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 (edited) QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 26, 2009 -> 08:45 PM) f*** it - i'm going with an epic 0-fer road trip. At this point, why not? We all know we're going to lose three at the Metrodome, so why not just add in the Yankees (and that single Cub game) as losses too and make sure no one is fooled into believing this team can compete for a division title. Even in this s*** division. Edited August 27, 2009 by Flash Tizzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daa84 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 if theres one thing i'm slightly angry at, its myself for allowing my expectations to heighten a tad....you can go back through any thread from the beginning of the year and i said that i thought this was .500 team with an outside shot at winning maybe 85ish games....shame on me for thinking maybe we were an 87 win team that had a chance to win 89 or so....i should have just stayed with my initial unemotional analysis of this team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping they could get Thome that elusive ring. I almost wish they could've moved him to Detroit or the Yankees or somewhere he would still get that chance. But he's not doing much for his own cause, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
