Hawk got the wrong dark skinned lefty

It was never going to be a smooth ride for us to have a good season.

I like this kid. The best part is that he hasn't even put it all together just yet

Jones has some unreal stuff. It's not hard to see why we kept trying to make him a starter.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:29 PM) Yea, it was an argument between a lot of posters about him being the Sox ace. Some people felt he was, those that didn't created that acronym for when he got tattooed by some of those high OBP teams that looked at a lot of pitches. "The continuous fall of Mark Buehrle" thread or whatever it was called that used to get bumped every season...

Our approach with men on reeks of "extra base hit" I'd much rather have it be "single" so we actually get some runs

Damn!

TOUGH pitch to take. Glad we got the call. This guy can't be happy throwing to a lefty now.

He should be getting less deceptive with every pitch

I love Paulie. Looked like s*** for two strikes but he actually stayed inside that two strike pitch

Paulie didn't see that too well

Do something crazy Paulie/AJ/Rios

The ol' catbird seat

Just noticed that the thread title has the wrong year.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:13 PM) Javy blew up in the 6th inning...Danks is just blowing up whenever the Sox score. It seems like he almost has to be thinking about it, psyching himself out for it to keep happening at this rate

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:12 PM) I completely disagree with this. Straight fastball (used to be a tick faster), big curveball, straight changeup that he has always struggled to locate, and added a decent cutter to get him to stick in the majors. His stuff is a lot like Buehrle's if Buehrle had more velocity

Terrible call

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:10 PM) You're making it too difficult. His stuff sucks this year. He has no bite on any of his pitches. Let's be real, his stuff was never very good. But at least he threw all of it

John is just not pitching smart. I don't know why no one has made him throw all his pitches to lefties

QUOTE (Capn12 @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:07 PM) JDINAA I honestly don't know what this means

If Jones isn't ready because we haven't gone out to talk to Danks I'm going to be furious

Thanks for that first pitch strike

Please go out and talk to him

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2012 -> 09:01 PM) Masterson probably gets the 7th, or until Dunn bats again I don't think they'll want to roll the dice against Dunn again. Hope they will though!

Masterson's slider is so good that even when he misses the spot by a bunch, it's still deceptive.
