hogan873 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I'm glad I can't watch the game. I'm depressed enough as it is reading the thread. Someone has to get fired, right? Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 4, 2011 -> 02:32 PM) By that time, they might have you committed to the looney bin. Only 1-9 left to go on this road trip and we reach 5-26, and reverse last year's run. YAY!!!!! 4-17, 4-17, 4-17....how is it possible with a $128 million dollar payroll in the American League Central? Terrible unprepared coaching staff.

caulfield12 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 4, 2011 -> 01:31 PM) Danks will be 0-5 by May 4th. If this hold up I would of lost any bet on that. It's their secret internal strategy to keep the amount on his contract extension below $100 million for Danks. Give me Danny Wright or James Baldwin over Danks, they knew how to win.

Matt Bush still around? I can't wait for us to also give up our veterans players basically for free as a thank you to them (ie: Thome). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants "ace" money, then pitch like one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 (edited) QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 4, 2011 -> 02:29 PM) We hit Fun Bad last night. Yeah, when I started rooting for the no-hitter I knew they had become fun-bad. It's like George Carlin once said, when you view something happening and that part inside you wishes for it to become even worse; that is my angle, here. Every win we have from this point forward hurts us. I just envision JR sitting around looking for any reason not to do anything. "Hey, they won four in a row; lets give them another month." "Hey, their summer schedule is easy and teams have overcome a similar deficit in the standings; lets give them another month."

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Man, Nick Blackburn is a stud! We are just running in to some good pitching guys, that's all. Brad Penny, Bartolo Colon, Liriano, Blackburn. Nothing you can do about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ May 4, 2011 -> 01:31 PM) you can send this one to Copperstown another intentional walk that does nothing but give up another run anyone think a legitimate bench coach may help this team Copperstown, Beardstown or Cooperstown, this is one game that will drive the youth of today away from the game of baseball in droves if anyone in the world is actually forced to watch it again.

Have an 7-8-9-1 every game with no power in the AL in our ballpark is just f***ing stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This wasn't his worst 6th inning outing, but with an ERA approaching 18 in the 6th inning this year, it would be nice for him to shut down the opposition for once.

Not sure how many are earned, but that's not Javy-bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
