QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 04:22 PM) Maybe all those scoreless appearances has something to do with it and who else is there ? Would of kept Thornton in there til he let someone on base.

All he has faced has been lefties. Still don't understand why Robin brought him in

Lefties coming up and we bring in Crain who pitched 20+ pitches yesterday and who is overly used? I hate Robin and his stupid decision making

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 03:43 PM) Phegley with another HR. He threw 2 runners out too

Gordon!! What a shot

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 03:25 PM) The leadoff hitter typically is expected to be capable of stealing 30 bases, yeah. Unless he's on the Oakland A's. I didn't ask that. I asked if De Aza was expected to steal bags? He has attempted to steal 11 times I think, that is horrible for a lead off hitter. So I don't expect him to steam

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 03:20 PM) But Alexei's not going to steal bags at will. He does it sneakily, but he's not a pure basestealer. He'd probably have a lower percentage than DeAza if he was EXPECTED to steal bases from that spot in the line-up. Down goes Konerko. 3 K's in the inning. More bad baserunning. Is De Aza expected to steal bags? Is anybody on this team expected to steal bags? I don't think so.

Maybe Alexei should lead off. Better OBP and more stolen bases

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 02:57 PM) Think it is time to make him a long man and see what Johnson can do.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 02:56 PM) 4-4 tie Axelrod had a 4 run lead and pissed the bed again.................I have seen enough. Think it is time to make him a long man and see what Johnson can do.

Stupid to keep Axelrod in. There was no doubt Butler was going to get a hit

I can't stand Axelrod. Johnson could provide us a better starter then him

not getting anything last inning is going to screw us over in the end

Not getting too lucky with these hard hit balls

I wish we had someone else who could lead off because De Aza needs to be hitting down in the order.

5 IP, 3 H, 4 BB, 6 SO, 0 ER

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 01:59 PM) For 1 more month and then maybe someone will gamble on his contract I wish

This Dunn needs to stay!

I think Axelrod's run is coming to an end

I will take 2 runs in the first inning off of Shields everyday of the week

Woooo Dunn!!

Don't screw this up Dunn

2nd Inning- Fly Out Line Out Strike Out 34 pitches, 17 strikes, through 2

1st inning- Walk Ground out Strike Out Walk Fly Out 25 pitches, 13 balls and 12 strikes

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 23, 2013 -> 12:53 PM) Mark Gonzales was talking about them maybe bringing up Johnson for Friday's doubleheader since they get the extra roster spot. Doesn't seem like a move they need to make with off days on Monday, Thursday, and the following Monday. They don't need to pitch anyone on short rest, so a bullpen arm would make more sense. I want some excitement! Bring the guy up for a spot start.
