I almost s*** my pants. holy s***.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Sep 26, 2012 -> 09:37 PM) His venom is only focused in areas like relief pitching and sometimes rookies. The entire offense could get 1 hit by all sorts of garbage and he wouldnt pop off. Get a rookie reliever to walk a guy and he groans and moans. He sounds like a southern Santo these days. hitting w/ RISP has been a pretty frequent topic of conversation as of late

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 26, 2012 -> 09:35 PM) Ha no, the Sox will miraculously get out of this mess. Only to some how find a more brutal way to lose later on. lol I feel like this is somehow more likely as well Have a day, Matty Ice!

Finally got a slider near the plate against a righty

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Sep 26, 2012 -> 09:34 PM) I'm thinking his windup shows the hitters a pretty good view of his grip. This is what I'm thinking too

Hawk is livid, so much for the Hawk that is supposedly ra-ra all the time.

Someone needs to talk to that umpire

Someone needs to talk to that umpire

Anyone else confused as to how Jones's fastball doesn't seem to blow anybody away?

for f***'s sake one of those two has to be a strike

Call a f***ing strike!!!!

I've never seen a guy that hits 100 so often miss bats so rarely

hot damn was that close

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 26, 2012 -> 09:27 PM) We don't just walk guys, we walk the other teams s***tiest guys. Lilli is a great guy!

Nasty 0-1 changeup, throw that again but a little lower

base on balls

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 26, 2012 -> 09:20 PM) Hopefully Lillibridge messes up a bunt like he did when with the Sox

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Sep 26, 2012 -> 09:17 PM) I figured he would get better as the season went along. Not to regress and to regress at this point in the season. I think a huge confounding factor here is the fact that players aren't doing as well. It makes every decision less likely to work out while simultaneously making each decision a higher leverage one.

Choo has Veal's number

Great double, Robin

Robin just got us a run!

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 26, 2012 -> 09:01 PM) The problem is that on paper, our pitching staff really looks bad next season w/out Peavy. I mean really really bad. Laughably bad. Considering our recent history in free agency and lack of good pitchers out there anyway, next year could be one of the worst seasons we've experienced in a long long time. Huh?

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 26, 2012 -> 09:00 PM) lol The "industry landscape" changed? The Sox were dramatically better this year with relatively the same team. The only "landscape change" was the hiring of Robin, and you are blaming him. You are literally the guy who wants to fire Steve Jobs because his newest gadget is "failing" because it "only" sold 2mil in the fourth quarter after selling 10mil first quarter, even though the original projection was only 5mil units sold. CUT MY NOSE TO SPITE MY FACE! CUT MY NOSE TO SPITE MY FACE! Literally laughing here. I can remember what the fans were saying opening day this year. Steve Jobs DID get fired...from life

PK will save us
