Pathetic...PULL HIM! Way to throw a fastball right down the plate ahead of the count.

No one up in the pen?

Would Youk have had a DP if he caught Morneau's ball?

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 12:47 AM) It's like they're waiting on every breaking pitch knowing it will be out of the zone. He walks in a run... I'm of the opinion he needs to be shut down, and Stone seems to agree with it.

Shades of Quintana's start in Minnesota when we gave him the big lead and then he couldn't pitch over a defensive miscue.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 12:45 AM) Quintana has the velocity still, but his command has gone with the innings overload. Got to get someone up in the pen. Can't afford to let him blow up again.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 12:06 AM) The Cell is a ghost town tonight, shame! It's ridiculous, no excuses for such bad attendance.

These 3 hour Raw shows are dreadful to attend.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 09:22 PM) Outside of when we're playing the Tigers, I think we do make it close when we lose. We don't get blown out by the Royals, they beat us in the 8th inning. The games against the Orioles were mostly close. The Sox have a ton of comebacks this year. The only place that we just fold right now is against Detroit. The Sox have done a great job all year of keeping games close. The team's overall +/- illustrates that.

So, um, win tonight White Sox

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 09:16 PM) Nah, I cant do that. Just gotta give him s***. If we took people seriously on stuff like that, you wouldnt get to talk to fathom anymore IIRC That is correct

Hell yes! They showed the last few outs on MLB Network.

I had no idea Pestano had been so terrible of late.

QUOTE (Baron @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 09:04 PM) What a huge base running blunder What happened?

What about Pestano for the 9th?

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 07:36 PM) I really like the Tigers broadcast. They keep you interested in the game most of the time and they educate with stats. Miles above the ESPN broadcast of last night. I remember one of their announcers doing a White Sox/Tigers FOX game last year who openly stated that Ozzie leaving for the Marlins was the worst kept secret in sports. He was the only television person you really heard mention this, and there were still a few months left in the season.

Can Pestano pitch the final 3 innings?

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 03:14 AM) I actually liked the line up. There was more speed. If they get on it exposes that Tiger D. But you have to get on base. Yep, like Flowers trying to steal Still can't believe the lack of bunting. It will be interesting if Hawk/Stone comment on it tomorrow.

Against righties, Dan Johnson needs to be playing every game with Dunn out.

What were the Sox 2-3-4-5 hitters this series as compared to the Tigers? That was the difference this weekend.

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 04:04 AM) Good thing we had Myers close the game because we can afford a $10M 7th/8th inning righty out of the pen last year. Was Dayan not available to PH for Hudson there?? Hudson hit it hard, no problem with him getting to face Valverde after he hit him hard last night.

So two freaking bunt attempts at Cabrera after Friday's debacle. Just stupid baseball all weekend.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 03:01 AM) Rios is having a good year because he's covering both sides of the plate. btw, when you "stay on top of it," it doesn't mean to pull the ball like you're asking for. For a few weeks, Rios has been flying open and unable to cover that pitch on the outer half that everyone has been throwing him. He was doing a great job of covering the outer half for most of the season, but seemingly around the Toronto series, he started to struggle a bit with staying closed.

If Dunn's unable to PH tonight, I assume he's out for the Twins series. Ventura seemed to be pessimistic he'd be back in next 24-48 hours.

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 03:00 AM) f*** this park, he smashed that That's not even to the warning track at the Cell.
