whitesoxfan101 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 (edited) That should be good enough!! And now, Jenks probably won't be needed either, good. What PATHETIC managing by Leyland today though, leave Verlander in until he reaches 115 pitches and allows 4 (maybe more) runs. I know they used the bullpen all game last night, but Verlander should have been out after he hit Cabrera in the head.

lostfan Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Can't blame Verlander for letting those earned runs up. That turd lays squarely in Leyland's lap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iWiN4PreP Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 agree that verlander should have been long gone, it went from a nervous game to a relaxing 9th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring in the lefty to get Thome, manufacture a 3rd out, and at least you have a chance in the 9th while having your starter avoid 20 extra stressful pitches. It's not worth it in April, and the pen could have gotten them 2 outs to keep it close going to the 9th. I'm not complaining though, that poor managing helped put it away for us.

Heads22 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Let Linebrink pitch the ninth? Or turn it over to maybe someone like Mac or Thornton? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 This is going to be a deceiving box score for Verlander, it's good to see our offense taking advantage of some mistakes and putting it away though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I saw Verlanders pitch count as AJ was coming up ands couldn't figure out why he would still be in there facing the lefty, but the Tigers pitching is depleted no doubt. Plus Verlander is a real good pitcher. But, AJ is on fire early this seaon which is a good sign of things to come this year I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pratt, DA, anything????? The cold, duh. Cold weather makes it impossible to hit but clearly quite easy to pitch in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
