I'm just more irritated that our minor leaguers continue to suck whenever they get called up to the majors.

Ervin Santana gave up 6 runs on 8 hits in his ML debut.

I do think it's nice that Anderson has decided to pick up Rowand's slack for weak foul balls to the right side. Those fans probably were sad when Rowand left....but have no fear, our minor leaguer was ready to come up and do his thing.

 

Well, Fathom, it was a fastball to Uribe.

 

Huh? It was a 2-2 pitch though.

Nice inning.

 

I love our offense a lot, but we have the worst 8-9 combo in the league. You'll probably say Im going insane and psycho, but seriously, if we don't get our runners in by the 7th batter, they are good as LOB.

I'm forced to listen to him now that Rooney is gone. Sometimes I'd rather watch the game in silence.

 

And as bad as Hawk is, I can still stomach him before ever daring to listen to the soothing sounds of Singleton.

Yep, he gave up the cycle in the first inning. Of course, he was facing the Indians.

I had never had the pleasure of listening to Singleton do PBP until last Friday night. It was absolutely amazing. He does a hell of an impression of the color analyst from Major League.

*hums*

Singleton was put in an awful situation. Farmer just gives him nothing to work with.

He's worthless. I'm actually thinking of donating to HeaveTheHawk.com.

 

Do you have a site yet?

I just listened to some of the Score game call while throwing out the trash.

They were calling him "Hagar" and talking about obeying speed limits.

I don't mind Hawk at all after that.

Urive is obviously trying hard to look worse than Anderson at the plate which is not easy to do.

Agreed. No chemistry, yet.

He seems settled in again. Maybe he'll alternate between rough innings and 1-2-3s?

Figures that a blonde holds up a "Hawk, will you marry me?" sign

Do you have a site yet?

I actually used to like Hawk... back when he didn't blow his load on every somewhat deep fly ball.

Is 5 innings out of Haeger too much to ask?

And now Haeger looks great.....lol

Don't walk chode for a 3rd time.

 

Thanks.

Is 5 innings out of Haeger too much to ask?

No, but no matter what he does in these next 2-3 innings...we cannot lose sight of the fact that he sucks.

Agreed. No chemistry, yet.

 

It's not the chemistry that's the problem. It's Singleton's voice. Some people have an energetic voice, and others don't.

So you're saying he would have maintained a sub 1 ERA had we not called him up?

No.

 

It's inevitable his ERA would have risen regardless of this evenings performance. Just so happens when the event occurs, people will point to this walk-a-thon as the moment he began regressing.

 

Balta (i'm too lazy to go back and quote you, so I'll answer your question here), I wouldn't have had a problem if he lasted 6 innings giving up 4 runs. His walks totals are atrocious. That's something which I know our organization won't tolerate. Passed balls will happen. Hits will happen.

 

Now with a 4 run lead Haeger decides to pitch within the strikezone.....

1-2-3, nice work kid

And now Haeger looks great.....lol

Does FutureSox pay you to kiss all minor league ass?

It's not the chemistry that's the problem. It's Singleton's voice. Some people have an energetic voice, and others don't.

Don't forget about the complete lack of talent.

Yep, he gave up the cycle in the first inning. Of course, he was facing the Indians.

Our offense scored more runs in April of 06 than ANY team in the AL did in April 05.

charlie enjoys the even numbers
