9/15 White Sox at Twins
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 15, 2012 -> 01:46 PM) I agree. The best thing for him would be that feeling of dominance that comes from pitching his 2nd no hitter. Yeah, no s***. Leaving the game with 1 hit surrendered won't feel any different than leaving after 6 with no hits. The potential change of approach that comes along with a no-no, though, is well worth the risk

If he can get this thing into the 9th we'll have to bring D-Weezy into CF...THEN we'll know he's got it

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Sep 15, 2012 -> 01:41 PM) That's playing with fire. Let him leave the game with confidence and have Septimo start the 7th lol are you joking? He's been absolutely dominant today.

Let's wait for a hit before we pull the plug on Liriano, lol

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 15, 2012 -> 01:28 PM) Liriano has a 5.04 ERA with the Sox. 90% of his problems are mental, along with finding a consistent release point. Unfortunately, they can't give Floyd and Liriano BOTH $5 million and hope one of them excels. I'd still go with Liriano...Gavin's just never done it consistently, and he's had 2009, 10, 11 and 12 to prove himself. 2008 - 3.84 ERA, 206 IP 2009 - 4.06 ERA, 193 IP 2010 - 4.08 ERA, 187 IP 2011 - 4.37 ERA, 193 IP That's really a very good run, and Liriano has showed no ability to do something like that. If you had to pick one at the same price (we know Gavin's price), it's easily Gavin. If they were both cheap, MAYBE you take a chance on Liriano instead. Also consider our "need" for a righty. However, I don't mind bringing back both. We'll probably take a look at trying to bring Peavy back at Gavin's price, but who knows if that will work or if we'll want to do it.

Rodney always had unreal stuff, it always blew my mind that he wasn't more successful

White Sox recall Marinez
Marinez has some great stuff. I think he'll be much better than Omogrosso.

GAME. THREAD. 9/13 Detroit @ White Sox
As far as momentum goes, I don't think it comes into play much in the conventional sense in baseball. I think offenses can help each other and hurt each other, but the starting pitcher (most important individual) is impervious to the changes in momentum.

Gavin looked phenomenal last time out, I hope he can keep it up next time and deeper into the ballgame.

Bears Game thread
QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 10:40 PM) So you saying Cutler played weell but everyone else on offense sucked...ok No. He didn't play well at all, but the rest of the offense could have made this game close. Hard to say what happens from there if some of those catches and/or blocks were made. This was a total team loss on offense. No one played at an acceptable level with the exception of possibly Michael Bush. What remains true is that Jay Cutler is by far the best QB in the history of this franchise.

Bears Game thread
QUOTE (G&T @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 10:36 PM) They were fine running and just refused to keep doing it. All those early drives we kept passing on first down and either getting nothing or a loss of yards. Then we'd run based on how bad the passing plays looked. We need to start running on first down so we can have a positive play to start the series. The Packers D isn't good btw, but their strengths are exactly what our weaknesses are. They know how to blitz and scheme and take chances for turnovers. We've never had an offense that is good at capitalizing on aggressive defenses like that.

Why not pitch Sale on MONDAY?!
Just pitch everyone in order, get all the wins you can.

Time to forget this one. Come out this next game running the ball with Michael Bush and it'll make everyone else look better

Bears Game thread
Gameplan today was just horrible. We've been in "pass only" mode for basically the entire game and our line may not be as bad as it looks, but it isn't good enough to be obviously passing this entire game.
