South Side Hit Men Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Well they better put Tim Anderson in as a pinch hitter if they want a chance at this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way he can catch theKimbrel breaking pitches. Although the 0-2 pitch byKimbrel was terrible, particularly with Seby catching. Wish we had McCann still in the team. I beat that drum all last season, but seeing what he has done this season.......Sox made the right call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnetennba Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 At what point do they try closing with Kimbrel? Cuz the 8th just isn’t working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly liked it, but I’m not very happy with the results so far. Problem is his value was always going to be tied to like 20 outings, and he's been shit in 30% of them already so it's a shit trade. Least surprising thing I've ever seen. investing huge in some high priced relievers... who knew that was a shit strategy? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Deep Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 How many times has kimbrel pitched for us and how many times has he had an unsecured upon outing??? Kimbrel can go fuck himself. Madrigal is nothing great but we got robbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Just now, TheFutureIsNear said: Aside from Kimbrel’s wild pitch the biggest mistake of this game was pitching to Vladdy 3-0. The manager needs to be aware of the situation and make the call. Should have also been obvious to the pitching coach and catcher, but just awful decision overall that starts at the top. Hawk ragged on Jerry Manuel for 10 years when he told a pitcher not to give Jim Thome anything to hit instead of just putting him on. Thome homered and won the game.

The Sale and Quintana trades don’t count. Name a trade that he tried to acquire talent, but your not allowed to name one that was good lol.

You loved the Sox acquiring Kimbrel, especially what they gave up. I know you're you, but it takes some real balls to call a deadline move "awful" three weeks after you loved it. Ask anyone on here, I wanted him to be closer. Hell, I know he expected it also. Hendriks always made more sense as a set-up man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's shocking how little you understand about the game, and how biased you are in a desperate need to be proven right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vilehoopster Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 My name is Kimbrel and my manager hurt my feeling because he took me out the last time I pitched, even though I couldn't find the strike zone. I am so sick and tired of Kimbrel. The real Kimbrel wasn't the one who was pitching for the Cubs earlier this year, it's the one who has got blasted for the last two years before this one, the guy the Cardinals embarrassed in the season ending series. He is the worst. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWokeUpLikeThis Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 The broadcast just showed a graphic reading “Scott Podsednik reacts to game after White Sox 3rd straight loss” even though there’s only 1 Out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradMc Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Just now, pcq said: Minor league baseball. The Kimbrel refugee from Clark and Addison has been an abject failure as a set-up man. If the Reinsdorf cabal doesn't succeed in causing a 2022 work stoppage, this experiment is coming to an end as soon as CWS are excused from the post-season (if they get there).
