yeah me too, another good win last night, and they have played tampa tough all year.

i really wish they would score some runs for lackey, every time he pitches the bats go silent

Subject: Re: MLB 2013 Mon Jul 22, 2013 2:06 pm

I am hoping for a least 2 out of the 4, 3 would be even better

yeah at worst a split leaves them 1.5 up, they're pitching has been unbelievable lately, but like I said, they've handled it pretty well so far this year.

Now bailey gone for the year, and lester taking an extended vacation, and bucholz seeing a specialist. WTF, the rotation is going to be l;ackey doubront dempster, workman, and......webster???

about the only good thing i heard all weekend was the potential deal to extend pedey's contract, well worth every penny if you ask me.

Subject: Re: MLB 2013 Mon Jul 22, 2013 2:18 pm

I saw a report over the weekend that they were interested in bring in Peavey, I would be ok with that.

Wow, Ryan Braun suspended for the rest of the season. Now admits wrong doing.

And cubs trade garza for olt and a couple of other players. Olt was who we wanted when we were trading either lee or hamels last year.

how does tampa continue to breed Cy Youngs??/
Moore was unhittable last night.

in other news, i like Workman, a little shaky in the first, but he's pitched 2 games now the sox could have won but he was matched up against hot pitchers.

Hopefully tonight the bats wake back up a little.

I just read the yankees might get Soriano from the Cubs, they need to make sure their medicare payments are up to date tongue

Yea, he will probably retire a Red Sock now. This deal expires when he is 38.

a win 6-2 , Lester, other than two dingers, pitched well.

i'll take giving up 5 runs in 2 games to tampa.

Now we have Dobront and lackey slotted for the last 2 of the series.

I would like to see 2 more wins, but they are tough

Subject: Re: MLB 2013 Wed Jul 24, 2013 8:02 am

Yea, it is gonna be tough, but hopefully they pull it out

doubront and lackey can hold their offense, i'm concerned they can score runs against their pitchers.

at least they were making them work last night.

Moore was throwing about 10 pitches an inning the night before, that's not gonna work against tampa

Tigers are beneficiaries of seven White Sox errors over the past two games

Hey we'll take any help we can tongue

Posts : 18214 Join date : 2012-04-09 Age : 48

we've scored 1 run in the last two games leg

the Cards and the Tigers were the last two teams they needed to face this week

Guest

Ehhh, the Tigers can blow hot and cold, right now they're hot. And home games used to be a lock, but not lately. But the starters have gotten better lately, so we shall see yay

Posts : 13554 Join date : 2012-04-09

shut down again, this time by price....damn Tampa has pitching.... Hopefully they can score some runs tonite for Lackey and take a split

Subject: Re: MLB 2013 Thu Jul 25, 2013 4:15 pm

Yea, and hopefully they cool off by Sept and start dropping games.

to them he will be

Yanks HR in July - 8
Soriano HR un July - 9 or 10

something like that

Hell, we probably could've used him at this point

Actually I heard that we almost traded Brown for him last off-season (this was prior to his breakout)

Guest

The Cubs just released him, or did they get somebody for him?

Posts : 18214 Join date : 2012-04-09 Age : 48

no, it was a trade. I don't know who but the Cubs are paying most of his salary due. I think he's still under contract through next year still.

I saw the numbers he's still owed....what a waste...again, the Cubs are looking to the future...God knows their past isn't anything glorious...

Sox take 2 of 3 from Baltimore, and claw their way back into 1st.

now they get to play tampa in the make up game and go up against price for the second time in 5 days

Hopefully papi's temper tantrum on saturday wakes the bats up a little,they needed a spark they were listless the last week or so.

you can see how well run they are when they elected to pitch Valdez (aging AAA relief pitcher who throws 88mph) ) instead of calling up somebody, anybody. Surely we have someone better.

Hamels wasn't bad but we have no offense to speak of. Pettibone is ok too but since he battles, Charlie's afraid to keep him in.

Bullpen is in shambles but that's nothing new.

On the plus side, they can stop pretending to "need" Michael Young. Get something for him while we still can.

Pap can go fly a kite - he's turning "Werthless" with his comments.

we're calling the death on this year 987

I didn't hate Pap's contract - at the time it was really only him or Madson and Madson hasn't thrown a pitch since he left us 2 years ago. And Pap's mostly been solid - if we were competing his contract wouldn't even be discussed.

Running your mouth against your team and organization doesn't cut it around here. And its not going to help the team to have another problem.

last year we could blame on the DL - this year that excuse doesn't cut it. They're just feeble with the bat.

Well, we have a couple games with Washington starting tomorrow....I'm thinking we won't average 8 runs a game against them judgy1

their pitching hasn't been as good as advertised

but it looks like they are hitting again

Posts : 13554 Join date : 2012-04-09

tough loss a bad call at home, poor baserunning that should have tied the game BEFORe the bad call, and David Price is one hell of a pitcher

1/2 game out of first again, hopefully they get some wins against seattle, and the rays can cool off a little

Michael Young trade should be imminent - calling up our 3b of the future, Cody Ashe.

I hope it isn't to the red sox, they could bring up bogarts or middlebrooks to fill that hole.

i really think they won't do anything before the deadline, look to make a trade in Agust if they need to.

honestly their pitching is Ok, they could use help in the bullpen, but it's their offense right now that's slumping.

Of course seeing david price 2 times in 5 days will do that to you, hopefully seattle will be a little easier to score runs on, but you can't blame the pitching when you lose 2-1
