Don't we have a thread for the Erstad arguments?

Stavo will get his first hit in the bottom half of this inning. And he's gonna look good doin it.

 

Wow, following GameCast, Jose really is piddling around.

Bad bad read by erstad and its 2-0.

 

Some people are never satisfied...

Oh I f***ing love having a .258/.303/.348 hitter in the #1 spot, guaranteed to get 4-5 at-bats every game, the whole time being fellated by the announcers, home and away, for being such a gritty ballplayer, which we all know is code for "white" and "no longer talented."

 

At least he made a great play on that one...

Well, that should end every Erstad argument. That was a miserable play. Very likely just cost us the game. This is one of the worst defensive innings in Sox history.

Ugliest read I've ever seen in my life, perhaps right there.

I already said Molina will have his first hit this game... so go away.

 

And as the Yankee's score... I can't wait to hear the gamethread conversations now...

Catch the f***ing ball.

Thats why I dont like Uribe's "gold glove" defense.

Slipped or misread by Erstad . Linedrive right at him. Tough play but gotta be made.

I mean, that was worst than losing the ball entirely, somehow.

I wish people would stop saying some of our players are Gold Glove winners when they've never won it.

Agreed. It's one of the most frustrating things around these parts.

"One of the few misreads that Erstad has had out there all season."

Well it makes it easier for you to crucify him.

Sometimes, we could all use an editor and right now, you could use an editor, my friend.

That's about the 4th miscue I can recall Erstad having in CF this year. At this rate, he'll have about 15 this year, and Hawk will say he's the greatest CF of all time.

Scotty Pods is a gold glover.

Well it makes it easier for you to crucify him.

There were 3 "errors" made by supposedly our three best defensive players.

Well, that should end every Erstad argument. That was a miserable play. Very likely just cost us the game. This is one of the worst defensive innings in Sox history.

 

Especially since there has never been an outfielder in a Sox uniform that has misread or gotten a poor jump on the ball.

 

Don't talk about Uribe's error or the fact that Crede looked back to first instead of second on the line out...

We gave them SIX OUTS that inning. Uribe, Crede, and Erstad all with honors on their fine play. We're lucky they only got 2, going to be hard to overcome having to get 30 outs.

I did in every post I made about the inning.

Damn you're worse than a sportswriter when it comes to overexageration. End the Erstad argument ? Cost us the game ? Worst defensive inning in White Sox history ? You've been around for 100+ years ??

Wow, there's a cliff. Why don't we just go jump right off of it?!

Erstad's defense is overrated, mmhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

His jumps are bad, mmhmmmmmmmmmmmm

His reads aren't good enough, mmhmmmmmmmmmmm

 

I love Erstad.

 

How anybody could ever bash his D is beyond me.

 

 

God, I hate unearned runs.

If you asked me before the game who were the 3 best Sox defensive players on the field, I'd say Crede, Uribe, and Erstad. I doubt there will be another game this year when all three of them make a big miscue during the same game. And I think we have no chance against Wang and his sinker, especially with this bogus lineup we have tonight.
