Harry Chappas Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 QUOTE (docsox24 @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 12:25 PM) Jose has had 6 starts since the break, all of them either bad or downright awful. We either need to beat up on Cy Young 1 or Seattle has to be up on Cy Young 2 for us not to be 4 games out. With Jose and Freddy facing Boston at Fenway we aren't going to gain any ground there either. The lack of a viable 4th and 5th starter the last month is what will cost us the division. Why can't Jake Peavy throw 70 pitches for the Sox next week? It is a rhetorical question by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Jose will man up and be more effective than he has been, but will still walk a few. He'll be done after 6. Bullpen will step in and do their thing...the good thing that is. The offense will touch up Greinke a bit. Sox win a close one 4-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JorgeFabregas Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 How old is this guy? Will he at least do well through the first 2 or 3 innings? Hopefully so. I was hoping that the White Sox would bring up Hudson for this game, then pitch him again on regular rest 8/24 against Boston. Then the Sox could pick their poison between Freddy and Jose for the next game rather than having to throw them both in Fenway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Huddy is going today for Charlotte, and it could be his final audition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 12:06 PM) If you feel that way, go to Vegas, cause I'm sure the odds are stacked in your favor. This seems like an un-winnable game, but I hope I'm wrong The Royals are probably actually a pretty good value bet this afternoon....the White Sox are only +115 or so today...

JorgeFabregas Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Steve Stone suggested that Jose probably knows that he is ineffective when dropping down, but likely does not trust his back enough to go over the top for the whole game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As will the lack of a reliable bullpen and the lack of a lineup that can consistently hit with RISP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 It took most of the 2005 season to figure out that Carl Everett was toast in the 3 hole. How long will it take Ozzie to realize that Dye is making outs at a high rate in the 3 hole and it might be time to drop him down a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
