Marte two walks, this guiy has not been right for two years, he is turning into a lefty specialist.

Marte has got to get this stikezone thing figured out if he is going to have a better year. I am watching this game and I see the same thing as last year. He doesnt follow through on his fastball and short arms it, the ball sails. He gets behind everyone and gets himself in trouble. The guy has filthy stuff but needs to get it around the plate more. His stuff has kept him out of major problems, but it will catch up with him sooner or later.

 

Come on Damaso, left hand should wind up at the right knee after release buddy.

While Marte did a little worse last year, I am now realizing how much we take his arm for granted.

 

I mean, he was b****ed out for having a bad year last season, and his ERA was still under four. I'm definitely glad to have #43 in a Sox uni for a couple more years... :)

Damaso looked weak that inning. Like he kind of slacked off and then decided to bear down when he got a couple of guys on base.

LOL!

 

For those watching the game on CSN, Mike Remlinger's last changeup was clocked at 110 MPH...

Do or Die ninth for the Crybabies.

 

9-5 Good Guys.

His arm is fine, its his mechanics that a bit out of whack. Think about it this way, a lot of other pitchers wouldnt of been able to strike out guys after going 3-0 on them. His stuff is filthy, he just needs to get his commander under check again. His problems should be fixed here in spring training.

Jeckle your boy had a hell of a game. 2 dongs.

Hyundai player of the game goes to Derrick Lee.

 

No. Not Aaron.

 

Cubs. :headshake

And for the usual crock, Derrick Lee is the player of the game. I keep forgetting that this is a home game for the flubs. Arow is the man in this game.

For those watching the comcast broadcast. Did anyone get a view of the old dork with the wrigley weeds on his shirt.

 

Thats a whitesox winner.

 

 

SOX PRIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you serious? :o

I wonder if the Sox will be thinking of keeping Walker on the big team and sending Cotts back down....or if Marte continues to struggle during the season...

Walker pitches a 1-2-3 ninth for a WHITE SOX WINNER!!!

 

That's Win #1 Northsiders. Plenty more to come.

 

It was perfect. The Sox seal the deal in the ninth as the Comcast people put a Cub idiot on tv who has wrapped himself in fake ivy.

 

Perfect.

 

:fthecubs

Yeah, Aaron kicked ass. What a crappy choice of player of the game.

 

As for Cubs broadcasting :sleep

I am not very impressed.

The one spring training game I miss altogether had to be today's game.

 

f***ing sales department.

I can't believe they'd give Derrek Lee it when his team didn't win. Whatever.

Calm down everyone, just treat it like you were watching it on an opponents telecast, because that's basically what it was. It was Cubs announcers on a Cubs station, they are going to choose a Cub's player of the game. We all know that A-Row played better, but D-Lee was the player of the game for the Cubs. There are better things to get worked up about.

Show of hands.

 

So, who here was "worked up?"

 

I know I wasn't. :huh:

Two years? :huh:

Cubs pitchers blaming the wind on Comcast.

 

Did the wind stop when we were pitching?

Yes I think it did. I'm fairly certain that since the Sosa trade God has become a Sox fan.java script:emoticon(':pray')

The funniest one is when Barret said that the sox home runs where all wind aided. But we all know his was due to the extra lifting and skill with the stick :fthecubs :violin

Marte appeared to show little effort during yesterdays outting. Anyone else notice his slurve was rather flat?

 

Watching the replay on CSN none of his pitches exceeded 92mph; and his delivery (as SSI referenced) appeared ackward. May have been the slightly lowered camera angles deceiving my eyes, but he didn't appear to be showcasing his usual three-quarters delivery.

 

I know it's spring training, but I've never seen the radar readings of Marte's previous outtings. Is this an abberation?
