fathom Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 QUOTE (JohnStamos @ Jul 25, 2009 -> 01:33 AM) Thorton hasn't exactly been lights out lately either. Noone in our bullpen has been. Even if Thorton gets you out of the 8th unscathed you would probably have to bring in Jenks or Liney in the 9th and then what? You complain Ozzie didn't save Thorton? You play to get through the 8th and score in the top of the 9th. Go back and look before the inning, I wanted Thornton in the game to start the 8th.

Friend of Nordhagen Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 08:35 PM) They are currently middle of the road in the AL if you look at ERA. Yet most observers think it's a real strength. Middle of the road = not a strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 We have not had a hit since the 3rd inning. This offense needs to get its head out of its ass soon, because with our schedule over the next 2 weeks we could go from 2 back, to 8 back in a hurry. Wake the f*** up.

Balta1701 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 We deserved to lose that. Really, with the pitchers we had going, the pitching wasn't responsible for these losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Awesome...terrible hitting, terrible relieving, terrible managing. Got to split the next two, or the season could be in jeopardy. With our remaining schedule, 4 down is going to be hard to make up when they have Verlander and Jackson starting 40% of their games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanne Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Can't say I'm shocked with today. I kind of was expecting this team to come out flat all day after yesterday's theatrics. Let's get 'em tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan562004 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 it started early when Ozzie decided to give an out up with the Beckham/Wise hit and run, an under 50% base stealer and a non-contact hitter, terrible. Pitching did OK today, this sweep is on the offense IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnStamos Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 07:36 PM) You play to get through the 8th and score in the top of the 9th. Go back and look before the inning, I wanted Thornton in the game to start the 8th. And you were probably complaining when Ozzie left Colon in the 7th. Some times it works out sometimes it doesn't. What do you expect Ozzie to do? Never pitch Linebrink ever again in a close game? In case you didn't realize Thorton walked in a run with the bases loaded. In the one situation where he need to throw a strike he didn't do it. There's no guarantee he gets out of the 8th scoreless. You lost this game because you couldn't execute with runners in scoring position. Not because Ozzie put Linebrink in to start the 8th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 (edited) And I'm glad we didn't bother substituting Getz for Quentin in the 9th. No, we wouldn't want him to get on his feet for one AB and possibly several more innings in the outfield.

I know he needed to be traded, but the Javy Vazquez trade hasn't worked out for the 2009 White Sox. KW better pray that Flowers pans out, or that is going to go down as a terrible trade. Javy could get the Braves a fortune if they traded him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, we wouldn't want him to get on his feet. Want to get pissed off? Quentin was healthy enough to play in a double header last week, but not healthy enough to play in a double header today. At least Wise got his ABs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
