All this talk about the White Sox heart. They are taking every team's best and holding their own while regularily resting the starters. The season has been great for the Tigs so far but... they will hit a bad spot before it is over. I feel Minny Chicago, NY and Boston are better than the Tigs. Too much proven talent and experience. October in Detroit :cry: October in Chicago :banned: :banned:
ChiSox & Yanks = MaybeBoSox & Twinkies = :no:
 
Make that 10-nothing, Good Guys.
The gayest phrase in all of sportscasting. Congrats.
True. Hawk Harrelson is a turd. That overused phrase is the epitome of what a homer he is.If I wasn't a Sox fan, I would have to watch their games with the volume off.
I can't listen to that clown -- not for one inning."He gone". WTF is that ####? Somewhere, Vin Scully is quietly puking.Seriously, he's the worst...at least you admit it. :thumbup:
Definitely. A few weeks ago, Hawk said Ozzie and Leyland are two of the best managers in the game. Ozzie? WTF? Even Darrin Jackson couldn't speak up to back up Hawk on that one. There was just five seconds of total silence after Hawk made that statement.The problem is Chris Singleton on the radio broadcast is just as painful to listen to.
 
Thome's been great but moving JD up to 3rd in the order the way he's been hitting and Crede batting 5th may really give the Sox a boost over the Twinkees this weekend. Hopefully Thome is only off for a week.

 
BTW, my prediction is a split. Thankfully, Vazquez isn't pitching in this series. With the Tigers offense being as it is, I think the Sox can muster two good performances from their staff and shut them down.

Like DD said, tomorrows game is HUGE.
Unfortunately I was right, and like BSS said, 4 more games down for the Tigers. They have this division locked up.

I 99% agree with you, leaving myself a 1% out only because the Tigers haven't been good in recent memory so you never know if they will choke down the stretch. With Leyland managing though, I doubt they will choke.3 more games vs the Sox here and a few more vs. the Twins, I believe.

He's a better fielder even when ARod is good but ARod is just amazing. I think Crede is second best. What do you think of Inge? Kid is getting better each month.

Not terrible, not great. His first half last year was lights out. Since then he's been mediocre.That doens't mean I don't like the kid. He can play everywhere and plays hard all the time

He made a terrbile play last night trying the get Uribe which let Mackowiac advance to 3rd

Unbelievable season - NO White Sox fan could have predicted this. :no:
I am glad to see him playing so well not just 'cuz I'm a Sox fan, but because I thought it was cool that he showed up to the White Sox Fan Convention in February '05 less than 24 hours after his wife had had a baby. He had every reason to blow it off, but he still showed up. Class act. Although I am sure his wife wasn't too thrilled.

Hey I just bumped the Detroit cornhole thread. We are looking at the 8th of September. I only get back once or twice a year so I wanted to get in this time. Check it out here.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming.

I think the Tigers blew a golden opportunity last night to put a dagger through the White Sox team's hearts.

With Thome getting hurt last night, if they could have beaten them last night, it would have been a psychological mind f*** on the Southsiders.

As is stands.... the Tigers didn't show me anything again.

But Buerhle's continued pitching woes are NOT going to help them down the stretch.

Garland, Dye and Crede are playing incredible baseball this season.

Do some homework Dr. ######## - I actually complimented the Tigers after Game One. Your beloved Tigers should have won the series - most championship caliber teams do. I'll take a road split any day of the week....How have the Tigers done in their last ten games?That would be a trend...

You should stick to knowing nothing about football. You are much better at it. :thumbup: How's that seven game series coming? :lmao: :zerocredibility:
 
Should be interesting.

Anything less than a 3-1 win by the Tigers would have to be viewed as a disappointment. You're EXPECTED to win home game series.
'GRIDIRON ASSASSIN' post='5364597' date='Aug 20 2006, 04:30 PM

If indeed Chicago and Detroit make it to the playoffs, they'd never face each other in the first round, and the Tigers would have to win a 7 game series against a winning team in Round One to get to the Palehose - which they are incapable of, as proven so far this year.
:lmao:

Update on this siutuation. :lmao:
:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: Bump. :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:
 
Doc, I think you're right... I should stick to football - as basketball has the 7 game series in round one, not baseball.

It doesn't change the fact that your beloved Tigers are fading, and they blew a golden opportunity to put a nail in the White Sox coffin.

I'm glad you amuse yourself though.

 
As a White Sox fan, I'm not conceding the race yet....Detroit SHOULD win the division, and I believe they still have some winnable games (particularly against KC down the stretch, but if the White Sox can begin September 1st 3-4 games back, they're still very much alive.

Saying that, does it really matter ? It's a pride thing I know, but once the playoffs begin, I could care less how my team got in.

Unlike the NL, in the American League, you have to be one hell of a team to get in the playoffs.

 
Good win for the Sox, but I don't feel any better or worse about their chances.
I do..but conservatively. Guillen was on Mike North this morning and talked about how his team was going through the motions for a few games before yesterday. He then said that he told them that they have to want it for themselves. He said that he was happy with what he saw in game 3 of the series, mostly because he saw the fire back in them. He wasn't taking credit for psyching them up..he just was happy to see the hunger there. Other notable things in that interview:- He said that Podsednik puts a ton of pressure on himself and that it carries into all facets of his game. he said that Pods could go 4 for 5 and go crazy over not getting that fifth hit- AJ hasn't been playing because he is so down on himself. He gets noticeably upset when he doesn't get a hit and whines a lot. *shocker* He said that he told him that it's a man's game and there is no place for babiesIf they can keep up the intensity vs the Twins this weekend and for the rest of the season, they are going to be a lot of trouble for teams to beat. Oh yeah, IMO it would help if they got some decent pitching consistently.

No ####ing way. The way they are doing it is reminiscent of the Sox last year. Not exactly one player stepping up but great pitching and the entire team getting timely hits and supporting one another. I don't dislike the Tigers at all and I don't dislike the Twins. I actually respect the Twins because they play the game right and plug in players here and there and don't skip a beat. I really hope that if the Sox don't win it, someone in the Central does. I am sick of the east coast b.s. The Central is the best division in the league this year and I would love to see the trophy going to someone in the division (hopefully the Pale Hose though).

The stats do not support this. Inge is having a better season than Crede.G PO A E DP AdjG Rate RAR RAA Rate2 RAR2 RAA2 BatOut EQR

Inge 124 98 310 17 27 121.7 117 34 21 119 40 23 333 59

Crede 120 94 279 9 28 112.6 114 28 16 116 34 18 317 72

Link

Made the every-day third baseman last season, Inge again set career highs in doubles, triples and homers, and he has upped his power once again this year, smacking 20 homers and slugging .472. Meanwhile, his defense at third base has surpassed all expectations; his defensive rate this season is a ridiculous 115, and he's saved 16 runs above average with his glove, both marks the best of any major league third baseman this year.

Yes I do... Minnesota's last ten games: 7-3
 
Bonderman needs to step up tonight. I leave for vacation on Sept. 17. It'd be nice to have the division formally wrapped up by then.

Of course, it certainly doesn't help that NEIFI FREAKIN' PEREZ is not only playing everyday, but now LEADING OFF!
