Tracey got sent down. I'm now starting to understand why the Red Sox traded Riske.

Jose NEEDS to step up BIG time tomorrow, and pitch a CG SHO.

Our offense is this sad and tired-

And even then we have to find a way to score a run against Santana. That's why tonight's game was so huge. It's almost an automatic loss when we see Johan.

I wish we could trade for Barry Zito.

That wont be enough

Remember the good old days when we'd lead off with a walk/single. Said base runner would steal or move to second, and move to third on a groundball, then score on a sacrifice fly?

 

It wasn't flashy, but it worked. Now I'm just sad.

"Vazquez can build on this start after looking great for the first 5 innings..."

 

I think they looked great, and just came up a bit short today. Just tip your cap to a shutdown pitching staff, we have run into a lot of those lately. But I dont believe this will last too long, or at least I hope it wont. Well lets go to our Dodge drive of the game, it goes to Joe Mauer who hit a cookie over the center field stands.

 

Ozzie has announced that Dye, Konkero and Thome wont be in the lineup tomorrow. Good for him, we need them rested so we can battle the royals soon.

Its time for KW to face it. Vazquez cannot get it done in the AL. Trade his ass for something, and move BMAC into the rotation. That is the best path for this team right now. McD takes BMAC's spot, or whoever we get for Vaz. Its time to hunker down. BMAC gave us great showings against good teams last year in the 2nd half, its time for Garland, BMAC, and the count to carry this team through its slump.

I knew the offense would slow down at some point. I was just hoping that by that time the pitching (mainly the starters) would've gotten its act together by now. Other than Garland, that hasn't been anywhere near the case.

Just throw at someone. Get into a brawl. There's a spark and it won't cost McCarthy.

It very possible we could lose 0 to -1. It's never happened before, but I wouldn't put it past this bunch.

10, just lay it on. Add to the misery.

If Vazquez can get it done for five innings then let him go five inninbgs and bring in McCarthy. Maybe ebtween the 2 of them we can get a CG victory. Otherwise trade Vazquez.

Unless he legally changes his name to Jose Zito on the plane ride over, he won't be starting in our rotation.

I can't wait to tell my grandkids this story some day:

 

"Children, back in 2005 the White Sox had a magical season. They won the World Series for the first time in 88 years. The following year we all thought they would do better but their general manager traded for a played called Javier '$hitty pitcher' Vazquez. We called him that because he was a $hitty pitcher."

We are looking at our 4th consecutive series loss after Santana works us over tomorrow.

 

Now bmac comes out there.

 

 

Ozzie is on drugs. bmac should of been there in the 6th.

This game was the pivotal one IMO, i figured we'd lose tomorrow and win on Wednesday, but since it's very likely were going to lose this one, we need Jose to shut em down tomorrow, and I'm sure 1 guy will hit at least a solo dinger off Santana, we usually do, but that seems to be it.
