need a hit

I don't know much about Humber other than he was a 1st round pick projected to be great - is he a legit reclamation project?

rack 'em!

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 05:47 PM) as I said earlier, we also get Verlander and Scherzer next week. Be nice for Dunn to get going again. yeah, it's time

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 05:45 PM) It's totally nuts that we will have faced Cahill, Anderson, Weaver, Haren and Price in 5 out of 6 games. no s***, talk about a bad draw!

memo to white sox: Weaver is throwing strikes

nice AB carlos

tampa up 2-1

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 05:31 PM) Call me crazy, but I bet that helps the pen. It might take some pressure off to be away from the home fans. Had a good road record last season and this year they looked pretty good on the road.

base hit my ass, that should be his 4th E of the season

angels have a pretty awesome defensive outfield

there's that good looking curve

cuzzi sighting. should make for an interesting weekend.

weaver's had 3 starts in perfect conditions - lets see how he likes these. Humber time!

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 02:46 PM) Taking a quick gander outside, I can't see how tonight doesn't wind up being just an extra day to ruminate over Wednesday's 9th/10th innings. radar says it's gonna clear, question is will it be too soaked?

enough is enough -- 3 different people spotted this morning on the streets of LA wearing Cleveland Indian hats. THREE. In one day.

Mauer hospitalized w/flu: linky

Doesn't feel like it's just a closer issue to me. We've been watching this pen give up runs starting in the 7th inning on. If only it were just one guy I'd be happy, knowing they could turn it around.

QUOTE (Paint it Black @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 03:16 PM) So wait. What leads you to believe he can get hitters out starting if he can't pitching the 9th inning? The guy was throwing 97-98 today and they were hitting him, even w/shadows across the plate. Made me think that some of this is just plain bad luck as well.

at least Y2HH and THEBIGHURT are making things more entertaining.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 02:26 PM) Make Santos the closer in about 5 minutes. Have Crain and Sale your set-up men, and use Thornton in the 7th inning for now. i agree w/this - let Matt get his confidence back. And maybe learn an effective secondary pitch. They're just sitting dead red.

QUOTE (klaus kinski @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 02:22 PM) Our starters appear to be ready and fine. What do the relievers do in Arizona for 6 weeks? they got the s*** knocked out of them down there, too.

i just have 0 confidence in a win, not matching pens with any team. I think this will turn around because we have some good arms out there, but for now it's s***.
