QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:19 PM) Yes, I think Dayan Viciedo is more likely to contribute to a Sox win against Max Scherzer than Jordan Danks So you have the numbers staring you in the face that Danks provides a better opportunity for success than viciedo, but you trust your gut. Got it.

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:13 PM) I'll have my Dayan, thanks And O-Dog > Olmedo for me So you would look at the rhp ba against scherzer and then look at viciedo's ba against rhp and play him? you would be increasing the probability of an out from that position. Full stop.

The old 1-3 strikeout. That was hilarious.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 08:07 PM) He's hurt Ah, thanks. Would have been good to have as many lefties as possible tonight. lhp only hitting .300 against scherzer.

Konerko looks as potent as beckham right now. Wise seems like the only player to show up at the plate tonight.

Why did dunn not start over konerko tonight? Just curious.

lol gordon lol Hes been abysmal for three years now. But yeah, he'll turn the corner any day now.

"it's off jimmy john" Lulz

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 07:14 PM) Sickening, and quite alarming to see so many players acting the same way Starts with konerko, who flat out shouldn't be playing tonight. He looks like s***.

Why is liriano still in? is ventura awake right now?

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 1, 2012 -> 06:50 PM) Good AB by Wise, as he'll probably try and steal here. So far, lefties have looked good against Scherzer and righties have had no prayer. OF against righties starting sunday needs to be Wise/de aza/rios.

Gordon looks awful as usual. With expanded rosters he should sit a lot against righties. Hes an auto out now.

Tank has all the talent in the world but he is a really dumb hitter.

I've been waiting all year for this. http://www.youtube.com/embed/SlTvSUCCqPo

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 31, 2012 -> 09:45 PM) Did AJ call for that pitch to Delmon Young or did Thornton miss a spot? Every time Young comes up, Hawk/Stone/Farmer/DJ seem to all say he loves it down & in. That pitch was in his f***ing wheelhouse. It was called and Thornton missed. AJ called for a fastbal in, Thornton missed down.

QUOTE (Real @ Aug 31, 2012 -> 09:16 PM) give it to Peavy or Thornton, they're missing theirs I heard :lolhitting :lolhitting :lolhitting

That was a ball. Blah.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 31, 2012 -> 09:12 PM) we gon' walk the bases loaded then not get a hit and lose. Game over. fin. poetic ending I'm just kidding before someone rages at me for not being positive enough Gordon's going to hit a 600 ft grand slam.

Looking at Tank's splits is really alarming. He's been awful outside of May.

Alright, still life. Get on base.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 31, 2012 -> 08:47 PM) Why won't Wise bunt at Cabrera leading off.? Not only would it be tough on Cabrera but he could tweak that ankle again. Coaching staff is asleep at the wheel. No other way to cut it, really.

Another F for Ventura in bullpen management.

How many times does Thornton have to fail before Robin gets his head out of his ass and realizes that Thornton is not really good?

Lefties against Veal this year (small sample size, I know, I know): 0-14 9 SO 1 BB

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 31, 2012 -> 08:34 PM) I think Robin's scared of Delmon Young facing Veal. Veal simply can't get righties out. Thornton at least has a slight chance. Robin loves using Veal for one hitter anyways, might as well let him face Fielder. You have Veal in for Fielder and then Crain/Myers for Young.
