Ugh - dropped ball 3rd strike and he reaches...

You gotta grab that AJ

Cotts isn't gonna be pitching 5 innings in 1 game ANYTIME soon.

Uh, I wasn't implying that Cotts would be effective for 5 innings or that he was prepared to do it. I would just rather see it than this.

Well what's the point of him doing it then, if he's not going to be effective?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

Dimitri Young vs. White Sox: 0-21

Alright, just a few more scoreless innings and we're set.

good thing we got out of that inning before pudge came to bat

Well what's the point of him doing it then, if he's not going to be effective? 

 

Despite the inning BMac just had, Cotts would be more effective blindfolded for the next 5.

 

IMHO.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ack. Don't post something like this until the series is over.

OMG HE SUX PULL HIM NOW OH GOD WE HAVE NO PITCHING

what the f*** was that swing Meathook?

 

Mac with 3 Ks in that inning. But lets keep talking about those 2 ER he gave up!!

He's settling in. Lets give him a chance.

Three Strikeouts in that inning against the heart of Detroits order and a pop-up

 

PULL HIM NOW...right? :rolly

Who IS our long man, btw? Is it Viz/Shingo? Do we really even have a "long man"?

he's only given up 2 runs!!!!!

In other words where the f*** is Carlos Castillo

Despite the inning BMac just had, Cotts would be more effective blindfolded for the next 5.

 

IMHO.

Let's just put Pablo Ozuna on the mound instead. Would please someone I guess.

I think that last inning showed what Brandon can do. Maybe I am a homer but I really think that this kid is going to be f***ing filthy once he gains a little more confidence and once AJ gets a little more used to calling BMac's outings

 

JMHO forwhatever its worth

who here thinks Detroit's only gonna get two tonight? I'm giving 10-1 odds.

Who IS our long man, btw? Is it Viz/Shingo? Do we really even have a "long man"?

 

No, we don't really.

Through 3 innings. Let's not jinx him by talking about this.

cotts, you kidding me, viz and shingo cant go long

He used the changeup last inning. It worked. It was hit hard for a foul ball on 1 pitch, and then the next pitch...the fastball became a strikeout.

 

Do that more often!

Who has better stuff, seriously?

 

If you say Diaz you are on drugs.

 

McCarthy has a better curve, but Diaz had a better changeup. However, McCarthy is younger and has a lot more room to add physical strength. One thing that is very noticeable tonight is how skinny his lower body is.

Something just clicked between Brandon and AJ right there and by that I mean AJ realized that Brandon has a changeup, he threw more that inning then all his other starts combined. I got a good feeling for the rest of this game with Brandon.

I'm a firm believer that we're going to have to acquire a 5th starter before this season is over. However, if McCarthy is pitching at the MLB level, then of course I'm going to cheer him on. It's very obvious that location is the biggest issue which will dictate his success during a game.
