    So is Manny going to DH?

    Ozzie said he will mainly DH and possibly play some LF is Pierre needs a day off or he can DH that game. I pray that Manny doesn't see the field...let him focus on hitting.

    Yeah, for a team pushing for the playoffs having Manny do anything other than hitting could cost ya' a game or two.
    That guy is a defensive blooper reel.

    This bullpen is atrocious. Hopefully Thornton comes back healthy on Wednesday, and Putz can regain his early season form. Sale is really the only good thing we got back there now, but his youth makes him hard to trust. It's gotta be affecting the rest of the team's psyche though. No lead is ever enough, that's gotta be wearing on the rest of the guys.

    I think Manny will provide a good spark, but the bullpen needs to improve if the Sox are going to make the postseason. Not sure why Kenny didn't go after Fuentes, or at least block the Twinks from getting him. Still, love the fact that him and Reinsdorf are willing to spend $$ to constantly improve the team.

    Kinda sad that our most reliable guy in the bullpen right now is a 21 year old who was pitching in college 3 months ago. But hopefully Thornton and Putz can come back and anchor this bullpen the last 3-4 weeks like they did most of the season before they got hurt.

    Manny's prescence is already felt. In back-to-back games, the pitchers have given up 3-run homers with him on deck. They are to scared to face him, so they go after the hitter. And they got burned!

    That 3-4-5 of Rios, Konerko and Manny is goin to be really tough for opposing pitchers.

    Nice win today....they needed a sweep and they got one. Let's keep it going in Boston!

    Running down a dream....

    the good thing is, they have 3 more games at the cell vs. MN and outside of the 7 games agaist boston you have 7 agaist detroit, and 3 each vs oakland, KC, and LA who are just playing hte season out, although the last 4 for Boston might not mean anything for those guys.

    on the down side, MN only has two tough sereis left (TX & Chicago) they play the indians 6, kc 6 and oakland and detroit 3 times each, and then a make up date vs. toronto.

    i would say, chicago has it's work cut out for them. they have to dominate MN next week to have a chance.

    anyone stay up late to watch the exciting Tigers/Twins finish online? twins were up 7-2, the tied at 8-8 going into extra. Tigers take the lead in the 11th and twins tie it up...then laird hit a shot in the 13th to seal the deal for the shaky valverde.

    fucken twins dont give up but I'm glad detroit salvaged a game!

    It has been pretty frustrating. Sox win 7 in a row and only pick up 1 game.

    It's Tom Paciorek (aka Wimpy). Former player and he was Hawk's color guy for all of the 90s. I guess Hawk has some family issues, and then Stone will also be out Wed-Fri, so the Big Hurt will be back in the booth. I like those guys, but I might have to hit up Farmer and DJ on The Score instead. Only problem is the radio is always a few seconds ahead of my tv...
    He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share, his key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere.

    i like stone as a color guy, as a play by play he is lacking

    tom sounds out of place

    DJ and Farmer are good tho. i know wgn does something so you can listen to the radio broadcast and watch the game on teh same time...although, they might only do this for road games. it'd be nice if the sox could d this for all games. hawk is the worst play by play guy in town.

    that's going to be a brutal booth if tom and frank are in the booth later this week. frank is brutal

    DJ and Farmer are good?!?!?!? I hope that is some sort of joke. Those 2 are complete fucking clowns. Getting rid of John Rooney after 2005 was a huge mistake. Farmer is usually busy talking about his playing days while DJ is busy giving you the wrong score and saying players names wrong. It's painful to listen to these two. I usually just follow the game on my phone when I'm driving instead of listening to the radio broadcast.
