I wasn't defending you.

I know but your comment really helped prove my point and I just wanted to show how grateful I was.

Jackson was warming? Maybe it is just to get him stretched out. You know 5 or 7 pitches on Friday wore him out

Your point is that others do it, so therefore it must make some kind of sense?

FWIW, I saw Jackson pitch as a reliever in the minors, and he was throwing 99 mph consistently.

I guess Konerko has a lower strike zone than Getz does.

If he's going on Thursday I'm sure he does need to get some work in.

 

I don't know about why you warm him up then...but I guess it does make some sense to use linebrink first before going to Jackson if that's your last option.

Linebrink has really been bringing some heat lately. I see one or more of those fastballs hit 97

Keep Blanco in the park, Linebrink!

 

And with Jackson, if he has to get pushed back a day, you can do that. Garcia would go Thursday, and then Jackson during Yanks series.

Why the hell didn't they just pitch Danks in game 2 last night and Jackson today?

 

You avoid wrecking your entire pen by asking one guy to move up his start by 14 hours.

It's Joe West. He's bad at his job.

Cooper and his "master plan" with our rotation...don't get me started.

Ask all these guys. I go after all of them when they start posting with your attitude.

Yes, the 2-0 to Blanco couldn't be more of a strike.

QUOTE (WinorDie88 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 03:58 PM)
There's been a lot of people who have been saying negative things here. I never said that the game is going end on a walk off till now. You're just putting word in my mouth.

 

The Sox are going to win it in the 11th. Go ahead base hit by Kotsay. Go Sox!

 

Happy?

no you said it every single inning last night

Kinda like trying to pitch Carlos Torres in game 2 of the double header in Detroit because he didn't want Jackson to pitch against the Twins.

He was out...bad slide

Maybe rather than say "Squeezed" it should be "Wested?"

Didn't Hawk used to say that you can't blame the umpires for losing games? I know there is history with West, but I wish he would give it a rest.

Hawk is a contradictory old man.
