QUOTE (bighurt4life @ May 8, 2009 -> 02:09 AM) I think that MB is probably one of the most underrated pitchers in all of baseball. He's been our number one guy for almost an entire decade which is just about unheard of anymore in the majors. He is incredibly consistent and durable pitching over 200 innings every season and generally giving the team a chance to win most every time he takes the mound. He doesn't have great stuff but gets by on guile, command, control and guts. This however doesn't tend to get you a Cy Young because he's never going to get 200k's or have a low 2's era. But i'll take him for what he is and let him continue to quietly be one of the best pitchers in the game. An all-star berth would be nice recognition though, because he is having an awesome season so far. Mark Buehrle is not an ace, he just gets the same results as an ace.

Yes Fields looked awful last night but he probably should have been removed after getting plunked. Give the kid a break.

I have a good feeling about Jose tonight.

Was able to watch a game live for the first time last night and it was tough to watch but a win is a win. I thought Paulie wuld get the day off after the way he winced in pain after he got busted in last night.

I think Lillibridge will end up surprising some people...the White Sox seem to have more faith in him than the Braves ever did, that has worked miracles in the last decade with players other organizations have given up on. We'll see if it can happen again this time. Lillibridge could end up getting some ABs in CF
