Last start for Weaver

 

Lasted 3 innings gave up 8 runs to the Royals.

 

Hawk's already saying he looks better tonight than last game.

What's Thome hitting with a full count this season?

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 13, 2008 -> 08:02 PM)
Thome batting 3 is dumb right now. Dye should be the 3 hole hitter right now. You want to give Carlos some protection, and you want to give Dye some runs to drive in.

 

Well CQ and Thome have 2 of the highest OBPs on the team.

Before his first AB, .208 with 13 BB's and 11 K's.

Man, Ozzie got lucky. You don't pitch to Vlad with 1st base open!

It's the first inning...a little different than the 5th. Even Hawk was saying that they should have walked him, and blamed it on Ozzie for not putting up four fingers.

Good job by Danks of not allowing a 2 out run, as that would have started the same Angels mojo we saw from the 5th on last night.

3 out of 4 batters faced have been Kd.

 

Hawk already starting the process of Cy Youngification.

We have bad luck with all of these pitchers being on their game.

The Predetermined excuses from the Whitesox.

 

Its cold.

The hitters aren't loosey goosey

The perfect storm.

Flip their cards

They are pressing

 

 

Another pitcher going low and away from our hitters and our offense cant figure it out .

 

 

 

Dag nab it. It's gonna be a long, short night isn't it?

Casey Kotchman shows what a line drive swing looks like.

 

 

And the funny people who thought that Kotchman + Figgins wasnt enough for Konerko. You funny people.

 

 

 

According to Hawk, Weavers changeup looks like his fastball from the motion.

 

 

I would like to thank Hawk for learning what a changeup is supposed to look like. It looks like a fastball, but slower. Thanks Hawk. You are a gem.

I'm one of the guilty ones.

Weaver's not even trying to throw inside for strikes. Everything is away, away, away, way inside, away, away.

The book is out on how to pitch to the pull monkey team. The only one who doesnt know what the scouting report says is the hitting coach. He is waiting it out, he figures the pitches center cut will be coming any day now.

is there any easier way than to beat the sox?

DJ calls a straight pitch at 94 on the outside corner a cutter.

 

Then of course talks about how Juan stepped in the bucket. The ability to hit an outside pitch starts with the front foot moving towards the pitcher, the minute your front foot moves towards third you are meat.

 

 

 

Is weaver looking that good. We looking that bad or a little bit a both. Don't have WCIU out here.

He looks as good as Cy Smith, Cy Sonnenshein, Cy Blackburn, Cy INSERT PITCHER HERE.

 

 

 

Anytime we want to move OClayton out of the leadoff spot, that would be fine.
