MEANS Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 08:02 PM) Before the game Steve Stone was talking about our guys being patient, and taking pitches as we have a rookie making his major league debut. Farmer said, so what do you think is going to happen. Well, they will probably swing at the first pitch and be aggressive, but hopefully I am wrong. Whomever comes up with our strategy against rookie pitchers needs to find another job because we have the worst approach against kids, its almost like we are the rookies. I totally agree it's not rocket science... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its obvious, however we will have to wait until next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Here is another obvious pitch, everytime our hitters get 3-1 on a pitcher they pretty much throw a changeup everytime. Again the only people that dont know that is our hitters. Even Hawk and DJ are calling it. For the love of god. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxbrian Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 (edited) What are you looking for? Apparently not the off-speed pitch right there.
