SoxAce Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Not a good pitch selection by Flowers. Kinsler makes Sale pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 And it's a double-edged sword...on one hand, you'll take the losses because of the pick. On the other hand, if the Sox just mail it in like last year, what does that say about the leadership (or lack of leadership) of this team?

Jose Abreu Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 We're gonna give Sale 1-2 runs, if we're lucky. That being said, this game is over in the 1st inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Eaton is on a roll. Another base hit and he's hitting .312. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I think Eaton will be even better next year. Especially in the power department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Hawk: Alexei is 7-54 lifetime against Scherzer. Check that, he's 11-40. Check that, he's 7-54. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The Tigers' pitchers try pickoff moves way too often. They deserved both of the pickoff errors this series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venom4789 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 could be a long day for the white sox, how has sale looked his last few starts, one of my friends thinks he maybe hurt, but he is also my same friend who thought alexie ramirez was on steriods.

Sale has gotten much worse since he tweaked his windup and starter throwing 96/97. I think those are the problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, if the Sox just mail it in like last year, what does that say about the leadership (or lack of leadership) of this team? It doesn't appear we have any. For instance, the fat POS playing 1B today, messing around with the first guy to get a single. Maybe it's just me, but I don't like that stuff. Abreu basically has a non-stop conversation with anyone that speaks Spanish over there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time you're in the field and your friend is standing on the base closest to you, you guys chat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those are the problems. His fastball command has been poor for about a month. He's been good enough to get away with it, but he's definitely not as crisp as he was earlier in the year.

Two players can't stand next to each other with patting each other on the ass. It's bulls***. The first base chat---yeah, that's going to happen. But a guy hits a double, and an infielder is yukking it up with the guy as he's throwing the ball back to the pitcher? Nah. Don't like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those are the problems. He has lost a fair amount of accuracy since he started throwing harder every game. Both of HRs were belt high strikes to good hitters, those will get hit hard every time no matter how hard they're thrown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 How come when Hawk uses old school stats to judge a player, he is a crazy old man who the game has passed by, but when Stone constantly praises pitchers on their W-L record, there is nothing similar?
