ah, another game thread, another echo chamber!

couple of things:

1. Cuban Missile in the 2 hole? I like it IF the OC is on base. Otherwise not so much.

2. I don’t wear team or player apparel, mostly I think it’s stupid. But: if forced to, my jersey would be Fisk or Frank. I’m old , as you know, and those 2 would be my favorite players of all time (Sox).

Laffey's a command and control lefty

That doesn’t seem like a good combo for Alexei no matter the base situation…

The only problem is

We need to drive up Laffeys pitch count and get him out of there. Wedge knows his pen is crap, and he wont flush Laffey until he has to. So its time for some patience, and to drive the pitch count up.

last night it was hysterical reading the posts from the game this morning. And little does joist learn from only 24 hours ago.

Oh ye of little faith. I’m starting to buy in – Ozzie’s making moves that are working (like ‘05), timely hitting, good enough D, great pitching. Sounds good to me.

Give it another inning or two. As you’ve mentioned – we’re tied.

Q has a hit

But it was a ground ball single, so he probably doesn’t count it as a hit. Not manly enough.

Man, feels like buehrle is gonna blow it on any given batter

but still only given up a bunt single and the double. damn walks.

by Trooper on May 22, 2008 8:51 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

well if he gave up 6-7 hits and 0-1 walks

same # of baserunners, probably another run, but i’d feel safer I think.

hold me Mark?

laffey @ 88-53 pitches

this way we won’t see their pen…

ps. MB -> 104-60

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

Read my mind, Wiz!

Was just about to ask about that. We need some fresh Indians bullpen blood! How about Jorge Julio? Who’s with me?
