August 9, 201015 yr Let's get a win tomorrow and shut em out going in the Minnasota series!! We need another 10+ game streak - it starts here!!! Let's go boys!!
August 9, 201015 yr It really is a big game for Jackson. We could easily lose 3-4 to Baltimore on the road. A split would be dandy. It's up to him, really.

Since you made that posting, if we do win, then I'd be disappointed if you didn't follow up with with another posting before we play Minnesota.......of the "hawkism" "Don't stop now boys!"
August 9, 201015 yr i hope edwin excels as a chisox im just not sure the whitesox should have traded hudson.

It is really up to the offense. The pitching has been pretty good against Bal thus far. We cannot expect our pitchers to continually give up 1-2 runs.
August 9, 201015 yr I am one of those in the "I don't know if we should have traded Hudson camp" also, but it is what it is. Jackson has a lot of talwnt and it will be interesting to see how he rebounds from the Tiger game and if he can be as good as he was there. I know we can't win em all, but sure doesn't hurt to try. That's all you can ask is a a quality start win or lose
August 9, 201015 yr i dont fault kenney for the move,a more experienced major league arm in a pennant makes sense but i just feel hudson gonna be legit,i hope they both shine.
August 10, 201015 yr Author He pitched better today but there is still more to be seen with Jackson he's something special and I'm stoked to have him now wake the f*** up bats!!!!!!!

August 11, 201015 yr QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Aug 11, 2010 -> 12:42 AM) Man, tonight is a great reason why losing Peavy hurts BAD. Haha, just saw this after posting the same thing in game thread. It's really amazing the domino effect that injury has had on our chances this season, yet it's so rarely talked about.
August 11, 201015 yr QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Aug 10, 2010 -> 07:42 PM) Man, tonight is a great reason why losing Peavy hurts BAD. Would we have gotten Jackson if Peavy didn't get hurt? Probably not and Freddy would still be the #5 starter.

Or we could have signed Thome and just kept Hudson in AAA all year or used him right now to give Garcia a break. And there's the added benefit of he wouldn't have homered off of Garcia. Sigh.

I despise the fact that we got rid of 6 years of Hudson, even if Jackson has looked good.
