    If Lidge fails...he is done...like Mitch Williams.
    Qualls will be our closer next season.
    Or myabe they should go after Wagner!!!!

    I can imagine ESPN tomorrow's second-guessing topic: not bring Jenks in by the sox.

    Very confident Astros will win this game with a walk-off homerun. The only question is will it take 1/3 inning or another 9 innings.

    Bad calls on Ausmus for sure, but the 3rd strike was close enough that he needed to swing at that and not let the ump do that to him. Those are the ones you have to spoil and foul off. Can't blame Brad too much though because it did look like a ball.

    I hope the ump bought Brad dinner, at least.

    :mad:

    Hey Max -- feel better? I haven't experienced a mood swing like that since Hatcher's HR...

    No idea how long this game will last.. get 2 out of Wheeler, 2 out of Lidge, 2 out of Qualls if you can.

    why are they acting like bringing lidge in will make it stay a tie ball game? we did the exact same thing in game 2 and got burned. i'm not saying don't do it but they act like it's the obvious strategy.

    Everett is just so damn good.

    Biggio's up next inning isn't he? ;)

    EDIT: I"m actually glad not to let Konerko beat us with his bat...

    OK, Gallo -- STEP UP

    Wheeler is missing UP and AWAY to Konerko ... Not what you want to do against him .. Time to take him out.

    Wheeler and qualls have stunk. So why not go with the best of the worst. Lidge. I don't mind. We can do it.

    uh oh. Gallo. Anyone nervous?
