April 6, 200718 yr Or will they elect to go with Ponson? Interesting choice for Gardenhire, even though it's early in the season. Would it be fair to let Danks go out there against Santana? Would OG then counter with Contreras (since he pitched only an inning plus) and push back Danks to a road start in Oakland, aka The German "Hellands" at the start of Gladiator.
April 6, 200718 yr Are you kidding me? Of course he'll pitch, they always go out of their way to throw Johan at us since he owns us as much as Uncle Jerry.
April 6, 200718 yr Saturday: Vazquez vs Silva Sunday: Contreras vs Santana Monday: Garland vs Harden Tuesday: Buehrle vs Haren That's my best guess, it looks like they're just going to skip Danks' spot in the rotation and Gardy loves to get his best starter out there especially when it would be with full rest against the Sox. Win win for Gardenhire.

April 6, 200718 yr QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 6, 2007 -> 01:30 PM) Sun/Mon/Tues = gulp Yeah, no s*** this is going to be pretty brutal. Especially that Tuesday game with Buehlre and his career 0-5, 4.86 ERA, 1.47 WHIP in Oakland.

Win win for Gardenhire. With Buehrle taking that shot in the hand, I think the Sox would be crazy to skip Danks's spot in the rotation personally. Give MB this extra day as a gift. Heck, if Danks goes...we might be able to shuffle around the rotation enough to hold Mark out until the end of the Oakland series, giving him an extra day off with the offday on the 12th.

No fog or strange playing conditions, I hope.

Win win for Gardenhire. I think Danks will go on Monday, keeping Garland on regular rest, and giving Buehrle an extra day to recover.
April 6, 200718 yr That is a pretty rough stretch but Im not worried about our offense as much as I am our pitching. Our offense might be able to get some runs against these guys but if our pitchers continue to open the flood gates early it doesnt really matter. We cant slug with those guys on the mound.

April 6, 200718 yr http://whitesoxpride.mlblogs.com/inside_th...ay_weather.htmlJavier Vazquez will go tomorrow and Jose Contreras will throw Sunday against Santana, skipping John Danks the first time around. Jon Garland will start the first game against Oakland with TBA scheduled for games 2-3.
April 6, 200718 yr QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Apr 6, 2007 -> 04:48 PM) http://whitesoxpride.mlblogs.com/inside_th...ay_weather.html So the Score just lied on their 4:30 update? They said Danks would pitch Sunday with Vazquez throwing tomorrow. Way too much false information being thrown around by them today. Bastards.

Way too much false information being thrown around by them today. Bastards. No. It looks like that was the plan at Noon today. and it's changed since then. Score was right. http://whitesoxpride.mlblogs.com/inside_th...4/pitching.html Ozzie just called me to say that they have decided to have John Danks pitch Sunday against the Twins. Our rotation now is Vazquez (tomorrow), Danks, Contreras (at Oakland), Garland and TBA (depending on how Buehrle feels).
