And That's A White Sox Loser

[witesoxfan]

That's a 6.00 ERA and it sucks. He threw so many pitches he had to be lifted. At $12.5 million its not crazy to expect more. Excepting this as not a bad game from him and looking at his strikeouts is something teams have been doing the last 4 seasons with him. The object of the game is to win. Its nice to see DJ question his concentration last night.

 

Where's the criticism for Buehrle after his garbage performance against the Yankees then? Do you not realize that Buehrle has not pitched leaps and bounds above Vazquez this year, but rather has put up roughly the exact same year that Vazquez has thus far? 3.99 ERA to 4.13 ERA, 1.10 WHIP to 1.17 WHIP, and MORE homers allowed per 9 than Vazquez. You seem to be holding a grudge against Vazquez, rather than providing actual criticism.

 

Why not criticize Jose Contreras? Or does his outing not count because the White Sox made an error?

 

And give me a f***ing break, the Yankees are averaging about 5 and a half runs a game, holding them to 4 over 6 is an average outing. They have one of the best offenses in the league. You cant expect to hold them to 0 runs, even if you're Johan Santana.

 

He wasn't even .500. I also doubt it was a coincidence he picked it up as soon as the White Sox postseason chances went to approximately 0.

 

You wouldn't be chance be talking about his 3.86 ERA in his last 12 starts would you? Were the Sox done by July 31st?

 

And, as a matter of fact, his worst two outings from August 1 on were AFTER the White Sox were eliminated. I'm sure you knew that though.

 

 

Stop holding a f***ing grudge against Javier Vazquez, because that's what it is. He can't help that KW made a horrific trade, all he can do is pitch his ass off, and thus far, he's been the White Sox 3rd best starter this season. That's about what he's being paid to do.
