Pena's ERA going to be over 5.50 after this inning. Can't wait until he's out of this organization, and we get an actual long man.

 

I wouldn't be too sure. The organization really believes in this guy. I wanted him gone last year.

Pena has a 5.52 ERA and 1.5 WHIP. I don't care if he saved us a few games with long innings...he flat out is BAD.

If things go from bad to worse over the next 10 days, I wonder if we'll put Putz on waivers?

There's still enough time, esp. with 3 coming against the Twins, for KW to be as angry with this team as he was last year when he sent out the "please for God's sake take Contreras and Thome off my hands here's money" memo to the league.

i may be asking this a little late but dont feel like going back to look but why have i heard just steve stone the past 2 innings? something happen to hawk?

You know that Kenny Williams is doing some crazy upper body super set workout right now to release the stress from this s***fest.

Juan Pierre does not have a 22 game hitting streak. His hitting streak ended at 16.

 

Steve Stone stands corrected then.

Well Pena was not a long man to begin with. Sox left him out there to die alot this year.

The only thing that would be the perfect topper to this game would be Jenks coming in now and getting booed?

 

Hopefully they're not saying goodbye to the 2010 season.

 

Everything was going great until Jenks blew that final game in the first series after the break in Minnesota. That will go down as the key game, the Mariners' loss when Vizquel keyed the comeback, losing 3/4 to the Orioles...not being able to beat the Twins 2/3 at USCF.

 

The supposed strength of the White Sox, relief pitching, has abandoned them at the worst possible time.

 

At least it doesn't feel like 2003 when we had the best team in baseball arguably. We're far from that.

Relief corp has given up 8 runs in threee innings what a complete melt down

Check that...now a 5.63 ERA and 1.56 WHIP....in 62 innings. Just WOW.

If Konerko hits a gapper, then Beckham scores from first. Giving up the first out is just so idotic when Perry was clearly rattled. I wish more teams would give up outs to the Sox.

Tha first decision to bunt with Beckham with Jones on 2nd drove me nuts. My daughter was here so I wasn't online but as I told her Beckham's as good or better than anyone on the Sox hitting it to the right side and only is hitting like .370 over his last 25 games and with Pierre coming up ! So you have a guy who can get Jones to 3rd, drive him in and doesn't leave it up to Pierre to hit a flyball if he is allowed to swing the damn bat. That's 3 solid reasons not to bunt with Beckham there.

Hawk is out today with an illness in the family. Hopefully back on Tuesday.

Ha, completely agree bomb. Guarantee there's a bunch of "I told you so" going around about Garcia.

Yes, but they did get him off the hook and the pren blew it

Linebrink and Putz both had four wonderful months in 2008 and 2010 and then POOF!!!

If the leadoff man gets on, will Ozzie bunt? And I'd love to see a video of what Cooper's reaction was to this mess in the clubhouse.

Too bad Nick Swisher wasn't batting here.

Hawk would have been out with a coronary if he was there in person to witness this implosion.

 

Seriously, this game would have been a lot for him to deal with...I was ready to believe we could take it to the Twins if we were able to complete the comeback, but now, not so much.

 

The momentum change in this division feels permanent. It could change and swing back to us one more time, but we don't have the type of team or bullpen now to hang with the Twins, Yankees and Red Sox.

 

 

Most disappointing home stand in a very long time. Keep your head up boys, got 3 huge games coming up. Gonna have to beat the Twins anyways if we want to make the postseason.

well they went down a flailing and screaming and kicking. Hope we can rebound against Minny and take all three

I think there's a 50/50 chance that the season is over on Thursday :crying

You can go back to the beginning of the season when they couldn't hit, field or pitch. That inedible winning streak put them back in it. I still can't believe that happened.

Not to mention getting owned by Cleveland and KC.

I doubt Freddy would have given up 13 runs if he went all the way.

 

Something that's frustrating is that our pitchers didn't take advantage of the shadows. With shadows that bad, no way a hitter can pick up the spin of an offspeed pitch. Instead, Castro kept calling for fastball after fastball. It's no surprise that Alexei missed Perry's slider by a foot, as there's no way anyone could have seen that pitch. All of the damage the last 2 innings by either team was done against fastballs.
