Wow, the coaching staff caught sleeping there. Brutal

Since when did Omogrosso become a reliever the Sox rely on? Cabrera now 3-3 off of him, time to try someone else.

Flavum, supposed to rain tomorrow?

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:20 AM) Rios is awesome. 8 for his last 46, but 3 of those were home runs at least

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:19 AM) They haven't given up a run on defense in 1.6 games. That makes them look better. Ironic that a misplay by the Sox defense is the biggest play of the game so far?

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:18 AM) Youk is also not healthy by most accounts. Gordon Beckham also has mental health concerns (green?) Good call on Youk, and in all honesty, him being on leave very likely cost the Sox at least one win last weekend. Lopez on Friday and Olmedo on Sunday couldn't have contributed less.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:17 AM) Maybe Detroit is a better team that's under achieving. You just realized this

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:13 AM) Amazing how this offense is unable to generate a single run Kinda hard to score runs when your #1 hitter is struggling, your #2 hitter is struggling, your #3 hitter is D. Wise (he's been very good, but still, it's D. Wise), your #4 hitter lost his power, your #5/6 hitters seems to be homer or nothing and your #7 hitter can't touch a righty. The fact this team is still in the lead in the division is borderline amazing.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:13 AM) A decent consistent offense and we are talking about what day we are clinching. That and of course not completely getting owned by 50 % of your division. Injuries have decimated the White Sox. Besides the obvious ones like Danks and Dunn, you have guys like Konerko who's been mediocre since June and even De Aza seems to have hit the wall now. Just think about this...Wise is batting 3rd for the White Sox while Miguel Cabrera bats 3rd for the Tigers.

Scherzer is the best pitcher in the AL right now, and it's not even close.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 03:02 AM) Well on the bright side, FLoyd's return looks promising. I still don't know why they didn't walk Jackson. Floyd's next start should be against KC, and thankfully he'll miss facing the Angels.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 01:59 AM) Ok, Hectors clearly not starting Friday now Yep, ridiculous decision. It's not like he's a good reliever anyways.

Ugh, he keeps going with the 3-2 change-up to our lefties to get them out.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:51 AM) Yesssss ghost rider We can now justify asking for him to get played more

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:42 AM) and this ballgame is ovaaaaaaaa No way, hopefully they can get 3 innings of the Detroit pen here

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:42 AM) Gmab man, he couldn't possibly have put a worse swing on the ball. You mean guiding the ball into the gigantic hole? Stone was saying he acted afterwards like he meant to do that. It just seems like Ventura is picking odd times to use people in situations they haven't been used in for a long time. Santiago is far from being a situational lefty.

Brilliant...shows he can't catch up to the fastball, and you throw that. For crying out loud, Santiago threw 93 pitches on Sunday.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 02:38 AM) He wasn't in the scheduled rotation for it He was supposed to start Friday

QUOTE (YASNY @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 01:37 AM) Make your call now. Santiago a a good move? Absolutely not for Santiago's arm sake. This is definitely a Cooper call though, and not on Ventura.

So great, does this mean Liriano starts this weekend? On 2 days rest, this seems absolutely ridiculous to use Santiago.

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 01:35 AM) I'm in a trollish mood, don't mind me Awesome

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 01:34 AM) Also, this is an absurdly quick hook for Gavin. I don't like this. He had nothing this inning. After the weeks of not pitching, it's the right move.

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 01:33 AM) But Morel and stuff You're making no sense tonight

Well, Gavin hit the wall this inning. Sox pitchers just love to allow runs after their offense scores.

Tigers show how easy it is to manufacture a run. Youk's defense cost us a run there.
