Carl K's on a nastay breaking ball by Ricky Bottalico.

Crede fists a shallow pop-fly to LF.  No runners advance.  1 out.

 

Ozuna hitting for Contreras.  Contreras is done after 4 innings and giving up 3 runs.

BMac, your plane is now boarding.

Get McCarthy before Hermanson. We're gonna need an awesome bullpen. He needs to be out there.

Actually, Contreras wasn't as bad as his box score shows. Iguchi should have thrown a guy out easily at 3rd but instead he went brain-dead and the guy got a triple. The pitch Contreras threw to Spivey to serve up a bomb was awful though. I think Contreras ended with 5 strikeouts in 4 innings.

I hope you are right, we need him this year.

 

On another note, did Carlos charge the mound yet? I just got home

C-Lee K's

Wow. 4 K's for Hermanson (3 looking) in 1 and 2/3 innings. He struck out both Overbay and Lee.

 

Marte in to face Jenkins. 2 outs.

Edited April 2, 200521 yr by Jabroni

Marte gets Jenkins to pop out. Going into the 7th inning. 3-1 Brewers.

Ozuna laces a 2-out double down the LF line. He's great.

 

Hawk said that Ozuna is on pace to break the White Sox record for highest batting average in Spring Training with a minimum of 40 plate appearances. The record is from 1969.

Harris, brutal vs. lefties. He has zero confidence against them. It's obvious.

Willie should be sent down. He hasn't shown anything at the plate this spring. Since Ozuna can play 2B, SS, 3B, and the OF we have no use for Willie and his never ending, weakass ground-outs. I think he's hitting .229 (11 for 48) this spring. :puke

I'll always find room for a guy with a .366 OBP vs. righties...

Luis Vizcaino in to pitch.

And, 48 AB's is about the equivelant to about 20 IP or so...

Yeah, but right now he's playing like a 26th man, especially with the way Ozuna is playing. Ozuna almost makes Willie a waste of a roster spot. I wouldn't be surprised if Willie is one of the cuts, along with Kevin Walker.

Well, I'd hope Kenny is smart enough to keep a guy who's a pretty good asset when used right -- and, a pretty damn good defensive player too.

 

What a play by Widger. Nice grab!

Widger just made the most amazing stop on a horribly located pitch by Vizcaino.

What is ozuna's avg. for the spring now jabroni?

How is Harris gonna be cut?

Thomas on DL -- or, not part of the 25 men, with Timo (hopefully, but maybe Harris) going down when he gets back.

Yeah, I know but the way he's been playing he deserves to be sent down. I'm sure he will be sent down when Frank is healthy.

They aren't going to waive Timo and his $1 million salary.

If Kenny is true to his word about not worrying about the money, he should be...

Vizcaino has fallen apart against his former team. 6-1 Brewers.

We need 5 outfielders, we don't need 7 infielders (3 of which play 2B).
