  1. Gordon just missed a grand slam. God damn it Twins, why does your bullpen not f*** up like ours?

     

    They got pretty lucky that inning after some unlucky bounces when Bonser was on the mound. Morneau barely made that catch off of Maier's bat. Ugh. Come on KC, you can do it!

    I'd trade Jenks for him.

     

    Wow, way to overreact because the guy had a good couple of games against us. Are you all jumping on the Hawk Harrelson bandwagon proclaiming Gomez as the next Ricky Henderson? Please...

    Didn't Masset always get rocked by the Indians?

     

    Like when he got rocked on opening day where he threw like 4 innings of shutout relief to keep us in the game? Yeah, I remember that...

     

    I hate Joe Morgan. Back in late June, he said the Sox bullpen was the BEST EVER. Look what's happened. It's 2007 all over again.

     

    What's funny is that all the guys from 07 sucked last night. MacDougal actually did get outs, but yeah...he kind of walked 3 batters and hit another.

     

    I felt bad for Ozzie yesterday to tell you the truth. But in that situation, where the hell was Adam Russell? At least he can throw strikes more consistently than the three guys Ozzie put out there yesterday to suck.

     

    The offense wanted to get us back in first, but the pitching resisted. These last two days have been two of the worst days in my life as a White Sox fan. I started throwing s*** around after Garko hit the slam.

    I'm finding it pretty hard to get enthused about any news right now.

    I am in such a friggin' depressive funk right now.....

     

    I felt like staying home for the entire day today after last night's mess. Sleep got my mind on the right track a bit.

    Ozzie ball is a freaking myth.

     

    Ozzie ball is playing the game the right way. Hitting to the opposite field, bunting, hit and runs. Ozzie hasn't had much of that for the past 3 years. Not because he doesn't want to (at times), but because his core players consist of Jim Thome, Paul Konerko, A.J. Pierzynski, and Jermaine Dye. Four players who are way below average in speed. He didn't even have a true leadoff hitter this season.

     

    The White Sox won in 05 because of home runs. That's more than true. However, if you have a team who hits 200 home runs, that's going to happen. Konerko and Dye were both good power hitters. Everett wasn't bad either. But when you had a speed burner with an above average OBP and a two hitter with the ability to move runners over, things will obviously be much much better. We executed in 05. Regardless of the way we executed, we got the big hit, we got the crucial runs. We hit sac flys, we got runners in from 3rd with less than 2 outs. We hit much better with RISP and 2 outs. We've been abysmal in all those categories this season.

    What is there to understand?

     

    You had player's like Cotts, Politte, and Hermanson who had career year's! Now where are they?

     

    Not to mention that no one knew who or what Jenks offered. The bullpen along with the 4 front man were enough to support a well built team with chemistry. Needless to say, Ozzie ball was in existence at that time.

     

    Ozzie ball is execution ball. That's what this team lacks a lot of.

    .384/.408/.616/1.024 in 73 AB vs the Sox

     

    .244/.285/.330/.615 in 491 AB vs everyone else

     

    So yeah, when he's not playing the Sox he kinda sucks at baseball.

     

    Add in like 30 bunt hits...

     

    He's not a professional hitter. He's just using his speed at this point. He's also getting some fat fastballs 24% of the time too.
