I don't want to know what you do on the weekends...

 

It's usually b**** about his team endlessly to the point my family hates me.

My god every pitcher we have been playing so far this year have been Cy Young. This is loco!#@!$#

Another Sox game as scripted.

he of fifteen pitches and disgusting deception

 

"You daggum right 15 pitches. I tell ya, DJ, the way he throws his breaking ball from the different motions, I'd hate to be those hitters. You combine that with the chilly temperatures that only the Sox have to deal with and mercy, you got a great pitcher. Don't tell me how much you win, tell me when you win it, and this guy does just that. MERCY, another bloop hit, daggumit!"

 

This inning is going to be less than a minute-and-a-half long. PATHETIC!

Fathom, these quality AB's don't give you hope?!?

Vazquez will probably tease everyone with a few more strikeouts tonight. It will be enough for some to continue to be excited about him, but he is just an average at best pitcher. He was below .500 last year on a team that won 90 games and he had the lead in all but 3 or 4 of his starts.

 

Interesting article on Chris Young in Baseball America. He's going to be a special player.

So it was all Vazquez's fault when Jenks blew the save and got the loss in Baltimore? Funny how that works. How many times in those games that the Sox have lead were they up 1-0 after the first, or had the bullpen blow the lead and/or game?

vazquez sucks

Sox want to make sure we get to bed on time

Nice to see the flyweights are going for the fence as well.

Right now, this team is f***ing brutal. I don't know how we have any chance against LHP.

That's a quality inning.

Javy's run support sucked in the second half last year.

Everyone else is doing it, why not?

Didn't Vazquez tank in the 6th inning of that game, and then the Sox got the lead in the 8th on a Dye blast? That was a game where we had a lead of a few runs, and Vazquez/Cotts just blew up in the usual way.

I'm coming to realize that resigning Podsednik wasn't the only bad move this winter. This bench was horribly constructed. You can't do a whole lot about Hall getting hurt, but you cannot have Cintron/Ozuna/Mackowiak all on the same team. I would love to have a Casey Blake on this team right now.

A little disturbing that his fastball now sits at 90-91 mph, compared with the 93-94 mph it was a few years ago.

Nice Grab.

Yes, but you can't pin it ALL on Vazquez or use it against him when the bullpen blows two leads in the same game.

Almost every sox pitcher seems to have lost velocity.

Here's the problem....Cintron has to be on the team because you don't have a back-up SS. I was really hoping we'd trade Mackowiak and create room for Eduardo Perez. Of course, KW's only good signing this offseason, Toby Hall, was ruined. I don't see how we won't continue to get shut down by the usual LHP in our division.

It's White Sox tradition that your fastball has to drop 3-4 mph.

When did Jack Bauer start pitching for the Mariners? I thought he was busy saving the country.

I still think KW is high on Anderson. Young is going to be a nice player. I still don't understand signing Vazquez to an extension when you have him under control for 2 seasons. Especially when its a team's policy not to go more than 3 years with pitchers.
