White Sox vs. Angels, 4/29/07 (L)
QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 08:28 PM) That's the book on every pitcher. Cooper preaches "throwing strikes," which is good when you off an ability to locate offspeed pitches and throw them at any count over the plate. AJP seems to get stupider every game.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 08:27 PM) Not saying Walker has done a good job, but the talent in the lineup is probably the worst in the American League. This specific lineup fields five (!) below average hitters (Sweeney, Erstad, Uribe, Cintron, Mackowiak), two average hitters who are playing below average (Pierz, Crede) and two good-to-very-good hitters who haven't gotten going yet (Dye, Konerko). This is an awful lineup and no hitting coach would make a difference. You and I must have been the only people watching this team during the 2nd half last year. Hey Bobby.....stop throwing first pitch fastballs at 95 mph.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 08:24 PM) How deep into the season must we get before there is actually a real chance that Walker is fired? It won't happen....they'll use the injury excuse. If we're going to suck on offense this much, at least there's a chance we can trade Dye at the deadline.

It's obvious the book on Jenks and Thornton is to swing at the first pitch straight fastball. Never in a million years did I think Wood would make contact against Jenks.

You know what's impressive: you can easily say that we have 7 positions in our order that are not contributing at all right now. Only Dye and Erstad can be counted on to have a good AB

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 08:22 PM) That was a simply f***tarded AB. Stare at 2 fastballs for strikes so you have to try and his his nasty offspeed stuff. These hitters are so f***ing clueless. I don't know where their publicist is these days.

Ha....great AB by Erstad. Looks at four fastballs, then chases a hook off the plate. Even my dog knew a curve was coming.

In 3 of our last 4 games, Hawk has talked up the pitcher as if they were Johan Santana's equal.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 08:16 PM) Hey, what do you know? Someones on base who may score on a double in the gap. I'd have no problem letting Sweeney try to steal here. K-Rod has such a long motion anyways.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 08:12 PM) It's okay, guys, Cintron had an AWESOME day at the plate. Hawk just said so. A seeing-eye single never sounded so hard hit. Sweeney looks like Buehrle at the plate.

QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 08:10 PM) I dont understand how you can hold your head up like this. I would be f***ing ashamed of my team and the effort if I was out there right now. Don't worry, our AAA pitching staff is now loaded for years to come.

I'd love to know how many hits were averaging against starting pitchers this year.

White Sox vs. Angels, 4/29/07 (L)
Have no fear, we got Cintron/Uribe/Sweeney up next inning. QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 08:04 PM) Excuse 1 - Weather Excuse 2 - Injuries Excuse 3 - ??????? The Answer - Greg Walker sucks as a hitting coach Excuse 3 = never could get into a rhythm due to weather and injuries.

QUOTE(diegotony06 @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 08:03 PM) Watching this teams offense is absolutely painful. Something has to be done, because the weather excuse is no longer available We'll hear the injury excuse for the next month, guaranteed.

White Sox vs. Angels, 4/29/07 (L)
It's too bad we spent about 3 million to upgrade our offense after they showed signs of aging/slowing down throughout the entire 2nd half last year.
-
White Sox vs. Angels, 4/29/07 (L)
Greg Walker really needs to be fired.

White Sox vs. Angels, 4/29/07 (L)
Dye's approach today has been to take strikes, swing at balls.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 07:56 PM) Goddamn, I'm tired of hearing Hawk talk about how a guy has ten pitches because he "does different things" with them. This is the worst I've seen Escobar against us in a while. He doesn't have his good forkball.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 07:53 PM) So who got in the way? Might have been Kevin Hickey. I heard he's been dominating our hitters during BP.

Tigers win on a walkoff by Inge. Every Sunday home game seems to be a walkoff.

Who was that dumbass coach who didn't get out of the way?

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Apr 29, 2007 -> 07:49 PM) More than 5, depending on how much longer Detroit, Cleveland, and Minnesota continue to spin their wheels. Cleveland's spinning their wheels?

Wow, excellent catch by Sweeney. Quite the turn of events.

Prediction time: how many games out of the AL Central lead will we be after this long road trip?
-
White Sox vs. Angels, 4/29/07 (L)
And this game is about over. At least Sweeney fits in perfectly with throwing to the wrong base.
