Boy, we are absolutely DEAD at the plate this afternoon...

Overthrowing that pithc over and over...and now no DP...c'mon Gavin.

Keystone Kops out there. Sheesh.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 16, 2010 -> 04:40 AM) I'm not in every gamethread. But it's pretty common to see a "Ozzie should be fired" anytime a high-leverage situation arouses and Ozzie dare has the audacity to call on somebody other than Thornton. Hehe, well you and I both know that if we had a nickel for every 'fire Ozzie/Walker/Cooper/KW/name_of_coach' post that was made, I sure as s*** wouldn't be working for a living.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 16, 2010 -> 01:53 AM) You wouldn't know this according to Soxtalk. Ozzie is supposed to use Thornton in every single high-leverage situation that presents itself. No matter what. Thats not entirely true...many of the regulars are highly concerned about the rate we're leaning on Thornton early on, and hope that someone...anyone in the 'pen can be the go to guy while Thornton gets some pseudo-time off.

Peavy!! Alexei Castro

Erg....

Mark Teahen...he has no purpose on this team.

Well....here we go.

Oh joy, flabby is up and warming. Can we get....17 insurance runs here please?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 15, 2010 -> 10:24 PM) If he puts Jenks in there...pull him at the first baserunner. No doubt about it

No doubt about it

Awesome Castro, Pierre!! New game gents.

WHY THE f*** is Konerko first ball swinging ALL night??

Stop first pitch swinging tonight Konerko....

Looks to me like this game shouldn't even be being played, but what do I know.

Seems to me we have a few people who fall into the "I'm a s***ty hitter with RISP this year." category. No one is saying Pierre should have a "free pass" in those situations whatsoever. What I AM saying, is that I can live with him not being a top RBI guy at the top if he is getting on base, and those behind him are doing their jobs, a la driving runs in. Right now he sucks almost more than anyone with RISP (Hi, Gordon!). That obviously has to improve. But not his major need in this lineup.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 15, 2010 -> 04:26 PM) I know he's had a good May. I pointed that out while still saying he and his pitty pat bat sucks. He's on pace for about 15 RBIs this year. If one of our biggest concerns, is driving in runs from the leadoff spot, we have FAR bigger issues. I don't care if Pierre drives in 10 runs all year, as long as he is hitting and getting on base. Let those whose job it is to drive runs in, do their job.

Its all up to Omar Vizquel!!

Crushed that ball

I honestly don't have as big a problem with Juan Pierre on this team as I do with Omar Vizquel, Mark Teahen, Randy Williams, Ramon Castro. Those guys have absolutely no value to this/ANY team whatsoever.

10.25 mil still owed to Mark Teahen over 2 years. That makes me vomit into my mouth.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 14, 2010 -> 10:14 PM) Omar actually got a hit. You should want Oz for playing Teahen if anybody. What a f***ing stiff. Like others say, at least we gave him an extension!

Teahen 'ole' that ball? C'mon...

Randy Williams + Inherited Runners = ?
