You know things are going bad on the bunting side of things when Pablo can't even get one down.

What's more important? That sqewed number or that W number?" - Don Cooper, White Sox Pitching Coach Wow, just wow. To be honest, he's probably just trying to stick up for his staff. I think he realizes they're pitching like spiff.

QUOTE(CWSOX45 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 10:24 PM) I'm sick of this spiff, So awesome.

QUOTE(Bonderman38 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 09:23 PM) I don't think you can blame Ozzie for tonight. Javy had been absolutely dominating the Tigers all night, and it was only the 6th inning. It seems that Javy just implodes when he is in his big jams. Ozzie is to blame for something else tonight, not the pitching.

QUOTE(dasox24 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 09:20 PM) Thanks, man. I guess I better stay away from Whisler, though... He's just getting over your spell. Don't even mention his name.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 09:14 PM) this is a ring of bad luck IMO for vazquez...he hangs a breaker to monroe and its hit out...two batters later, he does it again to inge and its popped up...sabremetrically, vazquez actually has the best peripherals of any starter on our staff... Maybe Billy Beane can fix his brain.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 09:13 PM) Never And he was the best baserunner I ever saw /hawk Until Mackowiak came along.

QUOTE(dasox24 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 09:01 PM) Jason posted this is the Pale Hose Forum, but I thought I'd put it here too b/c I know we have some people on here that might not necessarily follow the big league club, but do follow the Barons. Good luck with the interview, bro.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:45 PM) Tigers win...Sox lost after having one rough inning. Rubber game of the series tomorrow and it'll be a huge game. You know if the Tigers go on to do big things, Monroe's grandslam could be looked at as one of the key moments of the season. if the Sox go out tomorrow and take care of business, we could make it just another hit. I don't really buy into momentum too much in baseball. "Momentum is as good as your next days starting pitcher." IMO, that's mostly the truth. We just got to come out and take care of business. Absolutely huge game tomorrow.

That one definitely hurts.

Joe will tie this up, if we can get him up. Unfortunately, I don't think AJ is gonna get on.

Cmon AJ. Give Joe a chance.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:42 PM) PK juuust missed that. Jones is going to hurt this team in the long run. He stinks, but he sure does get the job done most of the time. He has as many blown saves as Papelbon.

If only Todd Jones started the inning.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:38 PM) Not sure, one of the admins (probably Greasy) put it in there as some srot of prank. they like to mess with my sigs and avies from time to time for some reason.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:36 PM) Why shouldn't we be concerned Minnesota has crept within five games of us? Facing Liriano and Santana six times of the remaining twelve games should concern everyone, especially. I think he was doing the rolly eyes at the Widger stuff, not the Twins stuff.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:30 PM) I really don't think thats it. I used to think it was the case but I saw enough reaction out of him to show that he does care. I have called the guy a "sissy" quite often and have went with the idea that he's scared on the mound at times. But really what he does is he gets overly eager and tries to over-throw. This works badly because he doesn't have the leg kick so his arm gets out of whack with his body and resulting to hanging the ball. Plus when he's overthrowing a breaking ball as is (even when he has his high leg kick which naturally keeps his arm more in check) he's going to roll it over because when you throw it too good (as Hersh mentioned on the telecast) you end up getting it to hang cause the ball doesn't get the desired spin. He cares too much, Jas. He gets too down on himself when he makes one bad pitch(in this case the pudge rolling curve is what got it going) and that just leads to a big inning. It's happened a ton this season.

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:27 PM) s***ting yourself at the hint of a pressure situation doesn't bode well for the playoffs... Ya, like game 7 of the 04 alcs. BTW, supposedly there is 2 waves going around at Comerica now. That must be fun.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:24 PM) AJ may be calling the wrong pitches, but its Vazquez's game, and he can always shake him off. Once again, I want to say that I'm in no way blaming AJ. Just people go nuts after Widge for less. Now back to your regularly scheduled Javy bashing.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:22 PM) I would be very very shocked if Javy is moved. If the right deal came along sure...but this team is not actively shopping him like it is another starter. *HINT* GARCIA */HINT* I really don't think Javy is going anywhere either but I've definitely read different. We'll see, all I know is I want Brandon in the rotation one way or another.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:20 PM) I put my head down once there was contact, and didn't bother seeing the replay. Same.

QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 08:20 PM) why is it that kenny is reluctant to trade javy?i dont care if pitching is very valuable,etc. he plain and simple sux. u have to trade this guy. shoot, i dont care if it were to a team that we could face in the playoffs or something. i would love it if the sox faced this guy... We have no idea if Kenny is reluctant to trade Javy. From everything I've read, he's been shopping him.
