ThunderBolt Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 11:58 PM) Also, I want Vizquel, Kotsay, and Jones all to remain healthy so we know definitively where we stand with them come next season. The WORST that can happen is if any of the three are injured and we bring that back against next season, based upon the hope of what they'd do in '10. Neither of those three will be on the team next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C_LEE45 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 QUOTE (knightni @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 10:56 PM) Someone explain to me the logic of pulling Jones for Kotsay when there's no one on and you're down 1 run. Â Â why do we have Kotsay in the 5 hole...maybe a man crush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 11:58 PM) Do you really think that would have mattered? Both those players totally suck. Jones #1 has more power, #2 has more speed, #3 needs to play #4 had a large SLG% last season. Â They don't both suck until Jones gets enough at bats to prove his futility.

southsideirish71 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 10:58 PM) How I feel is if we're destined to not make the playoffs this season, just get it out of the way early. Let us be 15+ out of 1st place come June. Â Also, I want Vizquel, Kotsay, Pieree, Jones all to remain healthy so we know definitively where we stand with them come next season. The WORST that can happen is if any of the three are injured and we bring them back against next season, based upon the hope of what they'd do in '10. Â You realize that option C, blow all the prospects and put all your chips in is going to be Kenny's answer to this right. You aren't out until you are eliminated.......

greg775 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I don't think Oz will survive this train wreck of an offense. Â Our only hope as a team is to have the starters soon go eight instead of five and six. If they completely dominate like pitchers did in the 60s, then we could win some 2-0 and 3-1 games, maybe some 4-2 and 5-4 games. We don't have the offense or set up men to win any games in which our starters only go five to six innings. Â We're not going to score runs. Does anybody dispute that simple sentence?

ThunderBolt Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 If Ozzie goes, Cora has to go too. He's an extension of the manager. The issue is purging the coaching staff and keeping Coop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anybody dispute that simple sentence?  We're going to start scoring more sooner or later. These things always regress to the mean, and this team should be able to score 4.5 runs a game when they do.  If we had scored 4 runs instead of 3 in 9 innings these past three games, we'd have at least 2 more wins.

Milkman delivers Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 (edited) What do you expect with a lot of these players? There are some deficiencies with the pitching (Linebrink and Garcia are examples), but that's something the rest of the staff can overcome. We can't overcome the lack of a DH. We have two "quick" and savvy veterans that aren't going to help at all in Pierre and Vizquel. Teahen will hit an occasional homer, but that's it. Our shortstop doesn't hit in the months of April and May, plus he might be certifiably retarded. And I really don't think Konerko is any good. He's a mediocre 1B when it comes to offensive numbers, and we need more than that with this lineup.

South Side Fireworks Man Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 The 2010 White Sox: An incredible waste of a pitching staff. Â Not only is Ozzie a terrible in-game manager and terrible at making out a lineup, he's also a terrible judge of talent. "Ramirez is going to be the best shortstop in the AL" -- my eye!
