QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ Aug 21, 2012 -> 03:43 AM) On Robin .... Guy's obviously tired with the WPs ... PULL HIM two batters ago!!!! He's managed this inning like he was scared of Teixeira facing Veal.

Tie game as our manager continues to make just horrible decisions. Someone on the bench has got to start making better decisions.

AJ's catching is just awful. So lazy back there.

Tex already homered off of Santiago this year

Earth to Ventura...Santiago has NOTHING this inning

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2012 -> 03:36 AM) Santiago is a travesty. He did his job by keeping the Sox in the game, but he's being left to die out there right now.

Why is Veal even warming up if you don't bring him in to face their best lefty?

Please rain hard

Gotta pull him

I don't like Hector's screwball Just caught up on the DVR, I love the quick hook for Floyd.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 20, 2012 -> 10:50 PM) Jeter ss Swish dh Cano 2b Tex 1b Grandy cf Chavez 3b Ibanez lf Ichiro rf Stewart c Should be quite the battle for Gavin against all those lefties. His last start against them was terrible. Well, hopefully Veal and Thornton are good tonight.

A's going to win so Sox lost 3 games this weekend in the WC standings to Tampa and Oakland. Anaheim has 6 more games vs Tigers, so we need them to start playing better.

Sox still easily control their own destiny. If they go into a big slump and/or decide they want to get dominated by KC and the Tigers to end the season, then they won't deserve to make the postseason. The Sox need to get healthy with ADA and Youk.

Great to hear Hawk blasting the decision making this road trip. Rios 0-4 in all three games.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 08:53 PM) The only reason I am not ready to smash my laptop is half is because we had no business tying this game anyway. Should have lost 2-0 by now. We got VERY LUCKY that Hosmer f***ed up. And I'm sure Baltimore winning yesterday and today helps your mindset.

Any update on when ADA will return?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 08:49 PM) .349 BAA against RHers this season is almost, hate to say, it unFATHOMable. How can you have that kind of stuff and suck so hard? Santiago, conversely, has been better against righties...so has Quintana, for the most most part. Jones has no idea how to pitch effectively up in the zone to either get a swing and miss or then use his offspeed pitch in the dirt. I do think he has a good future though.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 08:46 PM) And Nate Jones continues to not deserve a roster spot. Completely unreliable...still time for KW to get another righty reliever on the waiver wire. You simply cannot have a righty you use in games that matter with such an awful WHIP the last 3 months.

How many unearned runs did they allow in the 1st half of the year as opposed to since the ASB?

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 09:43 PM) GREAT JOB OLMEDO, GREAT JOB AJ I don't mind going home first to guarantee that runner doesn't score.

Wow, pathetic. AJ's focus this weekend has been horrible. Also, give me Dunn over PK at 1b this year defensively.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 08:41 PM) Oh please fans every where question managerial decisions. There's no such thing as a perfect manager. Moves you make won't work and some will. He didn't pinch hit for Olmedo or Wise and that turned out good. Well, there was no one on the team he could have even used

48 base runners this series for KC....22 for the White Sox

How many f'n base runners can our pitchers allow this weekend? I swear, no team in baseball is tougher to get out from the 6th inning and later against the Sox than KC. Been this way forever.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 09:36 PM) f***ing crainwreck First run allowed in 9.1 innings. He's been great since he returned. I guess I will never understand why managers so rarely use pitch outs in obvious running situations.
