I think Garko is going to go deep today.

So AJ is the hottest hitter. He bunts..... If you are going to do that, run for Konerko put Swisher at first and put Anderson in to run and play center. I hope AJ bunted on his own. Quintin fitting in nicely. This team deserves to lose.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 12:23 PM) HE DOES PLAY AVERAGE DEFENSE imho NO HE DOESN'T

If the wind wasn't blowing out Monday, there could be some really negative thoughts going around about Thome. If Fields had a better OBP and played average defense his K's would be acceptable.

Crede is a pure guess hitter. If he gets a pitch and guesses right he gets a hit. Uribe is the same thing. Did the 3B Umpire blow the strike call? Ok Danks you got your run.

Dye and Konerko hit the ball hard. Stone called the AJ hit. Unfortunately it will be wasted unless Quintin goes deep.

This is really tough to listen to.

OK, walking Garko is not bad as he got out of it...... Here comes a nice 7 pitch inning with three groundouts to short and third....pulling a good sinker and upcutting at the ball is not the answer.

Farmer made it sound like a lazy fly ball and then had Swisher crashing inot the wall......

The Cleveland bullpen is not that strong in my mind and you need to work their starters to get to it. Ah, first walk of the day and thus it begins.

That was impressive.

QUOTE(scenario @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 09:58 AM) I like the dumb titles. Sort of like the clever sayings on the Heinz Ketchup bottles. I don't think they are funny or clever but whatever. Maybe I'll start putting them together. I'll show you clever and funny. "It's not fun, it's not funny."

QUOTE(Reddy @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 09:17 AM) no more dumb titles please? I agree. I also think AJ starts and hope Ramirez starts at 2B. Somehow I think we get the same lineup as yesterday.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 08:16 PM) who predicted 7-1? I did. I also predicted the starting 9 at about 9:30 this morning. The predictability of this team is just sad. The Ramirez throw will keep him out there until May or Owens returns.

QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 07:57 PM) Ahead in the count 1-2 and walks him without throwing anything close. Well two innings of Mike McDougal could be 7-1 in a hurry. Mike's WHIP is only 5.00 nice job kid, get 'em 1-2-3 in the 7th. This is sad really.

McDougal has to pitch the 6th and 7th and then catch a bus to wherever Wasserman is.

Batting practice Mike. That bullpen of the White Sox, something special.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 08:09 PM) I bet we hear a quote that Vazquez was overthrowing tonight. His fastball was real good, his offspeed stuff wasn't. McDougal is f***ing terrible. He best be gone after today. Looks like Carmona could be done. Hold it to a 3 run game. Poof 1-2 count rolling nothing crushed.

Nice job Mike you are great at pitching over the leadoff walk.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 08:05 PM) He had a good year last year, but it didn't dispell the theory that he's not a clutch pitcher. Relying on him to be the core of our rotation is no sure thing. He got ahead of guys and couldn't put them away. Hawk loves the Indians to a sickening degree.

Well so much for making him work. Terrible call by the firstbase ump on the Konerko K. At least Linebrink and Jenks should get an inning in.

Ahead in the count 1-2 and walks him without throwing anything close. Well two innings of Mike McDougal could be 7-1 in a hurry.

What exactly did Uribe do? Amazing what can happen if you take pitches and making pitchers work.

QUOTE(retro1983hat @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 07:33 PM) BA deserves the next start. He deserved to start the last two games. Ramirez has had no chance and it could be the pitchers, cold or whatever but he was put in a position to fail and that is Guillen's fault and is a piss poor managerial dcision.
