Boo. Right call to not play the infield in, though. Too early for that.

C'mon Gavin.

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:25 PM) My brain just malfunctioned He had a hell of a start, too!

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:17 PM) I saw his splits against righties being quoted in another thread today. You do realize that suggesting he sit against a pitcher who mows down righties is not the same as platooning, right? Thought not.

If that hit Konerko, it was the most delayed reaction ever.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:14 PM) Damn Youk should have bunted there. Would've been an inside the park homer anyways

U HANG EM WE BANG EM

Scherzer throws hardly any sliders to LH batters. That's why LH batters are so effective against him.

Sit down, rummy.

Johnson and Hudson had good ABs. Make Scherzer work.

At least it took 8 pitches for Johnson to K. Progress?

Holy s*** Gavin has a yakker for a curve tonight.

Glad the Volvo Ghostrider is in the lineup, but wouldn't have minded keeping Beckham in. This is a pretty good lineup.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 07:36 AM) You have to remember that those splits are AVERAGES. That does not mean that a terrible LH/SW hitter like Johnson, Hudson or Olmedo is going to fare better than a good RH hitter like Youk or Konerko. You might be able to sell me on starting Danks over Viciedo, but no way do I want to see Johnson, Hudson, or Olmedo starting against any pitcher no matter what his splits are. The splits are cumulative and they say that a LH batter has a significantly better chance of reaching base than a RH. We don't weight splits by if a player is "bad" or not because that's subjective and hence dumb. You're also ignorant to the fact that Youkilis is sporting a hot .208 BA against RHP. What a good hitter! QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 08:56 AM) Dan Johnson's last 476 AB in AAA (2012): .879 OPS Jordan Danks' last 218 AB in AAA (2012): .945 OPS Dan Johnson's last 91 AB in MLB (2011-12): .443 OPS Jordan Danks' last 57 AB in MLB (2012): .556 OPS If you aren't willing to start Danks over Youkilis or Konerko, then you sure as hell shouldn't be willing to start Johnson over Youkilis or Konerko. Spot the sample size bias, everyone!

YTD splits against Scherzer: RH: .197/.242/.339 LH: .300/.374/.487 Youkilis, Konerko and Viciedo shouldn't be in the lineup tonight. I'd leave both Beckham (hot streak) and Alexei (defense) in.

LH hitting 75 points higher than righties against Valverde. Predictable K. 0-4 3 Ks. Good job, Robin. Dumbs***.

And another Ventura mistake. WHY ISN'T JOHNSON PH'ING? JESUS f***ING CHRIST.

Peralta didn't even break towards the bag...

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 10:06 PM) Some of you need to STFU and enjoy the game. Waah, waaaah, waaah. Give me a break. Are you f***ing serious after the managerial train wreck over the last two innings? Most posters have been pretty positive tonight until Robin huffed gas before the 7th.

Thanks, Captain Shoulder Shrug!

He's in way over his head. Utterly f***ing pathetic.
