Thad Bosley Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Isn't the 9th spot in the line-up usually where you drop off the worst hitter in your line-up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 07:33 PM) Gallaraga with Zambrano-like stomp on first base. I don't like the guy. It's his new habit. Blame Jim Joyce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Jackson just needs to go after these guys with the fastball on the 2 strike pitches. He's hung probably 80% of his sliders so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 When was the last time we had a starter who could throw 97-98? Â Colon in 2003 is the only one I can think of in recent memory...it would take him until the 4th or 5th to get up to that speed, though. Â And it seems he threw more often at 95-96-97 when he was with the Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Didn't that last ball that hit the bag...wouldn't Konerko have fielded it for an easy out? Or was it going to get past him for a double and possible runner scoring from 1st?

I agree. It's pretty nice to have a hard-throwing starter. I feel as excited watching Jackson's 97's and 98's as I was watching Jenks' 99's and 100's in 2005.
