fathom Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 QUOTE (Real @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 02:23 AM) be honest none of you thought we had a prayer in this series right? the fact that MIN has the f***ing rochester red wings taking the field makes no difference only way we had any shot in this series would have been if Peavy and Humber were the starters (imo, the two guys in our rotation who i trust to get a win, too bad Peavy is in Charlotte...) I thought we'd win both games to be honest. This Twins lineup is pathetic, and I thought Dunn would crush Pavano tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 09:23 PM) Someone on here said it best after the Santos loss last week. Until they get to .500, there's no reason to even be disappointed in losses. Sure you can get mad, but we're not talking about a contending team right now. Teams cannot win their divison when they cant beat teams in their division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I hate Peavy's brittleness physically, I sort of agree. I think he'd welcome grabbing the ball and facing the Twinks despite the fact they own the Sox. Except ... It'd be 0-0 after nine with Jake and we'd lose in 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my god, this makes me want to throw a computer. I wonder how the Peavy Praisers would react knowing he has a Javy-esque reputation for pitching in big games.

iamshack Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Well, I am officially hoping for Juan Pierre to pull a hamstring. And if that was not the prototypical Twins defeat of the White Sox, I don't know what is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 The funny thing is that people probably think I hate Peavy. He's definitely not someone I dislike, and really hope he can be a big factor for the Sox the next year and a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Rongey just stated that the reason that Pavano does well against the sox is that they dont matchup well with this pitch he throws. It sinks and is slower, and thats what CQ had problems with tonight. ITS CALLED A CHANGEUP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
