EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 Game 1: Clement vs. Contreras Game 2: Wells vs. Buehrle Game 3: Garland vs. Wakefield I think this series is probably the most interesting of the first round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 Sox OWNED Contreras when he was pitching for NY. I know he's been their best pitcher down the stretch, but I question the wisdom of starting him in game 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's more like Garcia/Buehrle, Contreras/Garland, then the 5th pitcher, whoever it is. Though McCarthy will be mentioned at this time next year. Czech, why are you even in this thread? You made it clear you don't like the White Sox, and as I see on the poll, you don't seem to like the Red Sox either. Just stay out of the thread then.

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 I said DOWN THE STRETCH, learn to read. He went 6-0 with a 1.99 era in Sept, while Garland, Buehrle and Garcia collectively shit the bed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 He had a 2.14 era in August. The POINT is that he's been their most consistent pitcher late in the season which is why Guillen is going with him in game 1, but I question that logic given his struggles with Boston.

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 It's only 1 game. It takes THREE games to eliminate a team. If Contreras can't get it done, then they'll just hope Buehrle and Garland and Garcia does. Really, like you said, he's been their best pitcher in September, so why not? Go with a pat hand.

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 One could make an inference to you saying Cards/Red Sox= North Side Suicide, following the Cards/White Sox comment. However this is a silly discussion. If you like the Red Sox, then cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well I don't blame them. The White Sox pretty much nearly damn killed their fanbase with the near collapse. It's going to have to take a sweep of both Red Sox and the winner of Yankees/Angels to regain credibility. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fuzzy Dunlop 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2005 Porter, you said "like the Cubs would ever do anything worth congratualting" or something like that. But the Cubs have had more postseason appearances and more postseason series won, but no congratulations. Such as when the Cubs actually got past the first round in '03, which is something the White Sox haven't done since 1917. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
