Why is Jose still pitching?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 02:05 PM) ? Stats say 3 hits, 4 walks for Verlander, 1 error, 8 hits, 1 HBP for Contreras. Forgot about the HBP

We've the the same number of base runners as Detroit but wet our pants with RISP.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 01:59 PM) Just got to a computer today to see what's going on. I can't believe Pods isn't playing in what is such a big game. I don't care if it's a doubleheader...he needs to be playing both games. Who would have driven him in if he got on base? The 2-5 hitters are 0 for the game.

That should be about it. Our hitters will hack away and pop up the first pitch the rest of the way.

QUOTE (ChWRoCk2 @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 01:58 PM) How'd Laird get on base? Gameday didn't say. Double to LF

If we get Everett out I'd bring in Thornton for Granderson.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 01:54 PM) 103 pitches for Verlander through 7. They'll give him the 8th. No doubt. Why waste away your bullpen on the day of a double header when he's mowing everyone down.

Unreal.

I'd imagine Jose will have at least one more inning with the bottom of the order due up for Detroit and he's under 100 pitches.

Easier 5 pitch inning for Jose. Nice job.

Easy 10 pitch inning for Verlander.

Ugh.

How many ABs has Q gone now without a HR?

QUOTE (ChWRoCk2 @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 01:40 PM) Lets start getting some hits!!! We need clutch hits. We've had plenty of base runners.

The real heart of the order is coming up.

At this pace I doubt Jose pitches the 7th.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 01:29 PM) PK needs to get hot again. The entire heart of the order has looked weak since the big game by Thome.

Thome is our 8th base runner today after the walk.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 01:26 PM) Especially knowing Tubby ass is gonna suck tonight. We also thought Jose would suck in his first stint back after being demoted.

QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 01:23 PM) RACK EM UP!!!! let's get to verlander now! This could be a big inning for us with the heart of the order coming up.

How about attacking these weak hitters Jose?

.235 hitter up with runners at the corners.

QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 01:20 PM) Wise grounds out. 1-1 ?

We get behind by 2 or more I don't like our chances.
