Okay, we seriously need to revamp the team from within.

1.) Demote Buch, Cora, Timlin, and Lugo.
2.) Bring up Bowden, Zink, and Lars.
3.) Put Lars at 3B, make Lowell a super sub.
4.) Have Zink start in Wake’s place until he returns, then move him to the pen.
5.) Put Bowden in Buch’s place.
6.) Lowrie plays SS for the rest of the year.

trade Casey for some backup middle infielder.

He who hesitates is tagged out between first and second base.

by BoSox415 on Aug 10, 2008 3:44 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Don't think so

1) Cora is okay as a UI, Timlin has done a lot better lately, I’m not sure about what to do with Lugo, and I believe we should send Buch down to the minors
2) Bowden might not be ready, Zink has come back to Earth, and Lars is not ready
3) Lowell is too good a player to be a super sub
4) Zink will not be on the pen because Tek can’t catch the knuckler, and he also came back to Earth
5) If Bowden is ready, I’m all up for this. But I just don’t think he is
6) That you got right

It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.

Excuse me, but how did the Sox get their 3 runs??

Maybe, just maybe, Lowell is a bit hurt. He still has great momentum fostering, and I would rather have him up with men on base than anyone else. You can’t blame him for lousy starting pitching!

by NG on Aug 10, 2008 3:45 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Bad pitch = easy HR

I would just like to see Lars up in the bigs while Lowell figures out wtf is wrong with his hip.

by bs.uf15bosox9bears23 on Aug 10, 2008 3:47 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

1) Buch can be sent down. Cora is not going to be sent down. If anything, he’ll be DFA’d. Timlin also will not be sent down. He’s been pitching decently lately. Lugo is getting a lot of money. He will not be sent down. He’ll back up Lowrie if Jed stays hot. Might be similar to an Ells/Coco situation for the rest of the year.
2) Lars Anderson is 20. He is not ready for the Show yet. Strikes out a lot and needs to work on plate discipline. He’s playing in Double-A for the first time right now. Bowden is also not ready yet.
3) Lars Anderson is a first baseman. Lowell is a solid defensive third baseman and still has a good bat.
4) This is a possibility, but unlikely because their spots don’t line up. Look for Hansack to start.
5) Not ready.
6) A probability.

by soxaholic on Aug 10, 2008 3:48 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Maybe you should give some credit to Thome.

Thome is one of the best sluggers of all time; him hitting homeruns isn’t a sign that the pitcher sucks. Timlin faced the heart of the White Sox lineup in his inning last night – I was thankful he got out of that inning with only one run.

by 0157H7 on Aug 10, 2008 8:48 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Agreed

And the pitch that got Dye to fly out was far worse than the one Thome crushed.

I was thinking the same here

Casey on first, Tek at the plate… It smells like a DP. :)

Right field?

The baseball Magazine says he will scoot to right field to avoid injuring his legs, which have the “durability of overcooked spaghetti”.

Things still look up if pitching can rally!

When we win, we usually seem to win big. When we lose, we barely lose by one run. That cannot be a bad sign, especially when we are losing by one run with a poor pitching performance. Take today, we scored plenty of runs that could have won with a slightly better starting pitching performance. The pen has look good lately. Therefore, I think notching up the starting pitching a bit and having enough quality starters is the key to what this team now needs, IMHO!
