April 11th Game Thread White Sox versus Athletics

It's a very agitated fan base right now due to the bullpen. Dunn's injury has also killed a lot of the excitement over him.

Also Sox fans don't give a s*** what the team looks like on paper (we've seen that story overplayed), we want to see it on the field before we pay money.

Yep, he's letting Pierre bat. Comical Ozzie

This team should be 9-1 after tonight. This is so frustrating.

the good thing is that the tigers and twins have been worse and the bad thing is that we could be taking advantage of it

You hear that, Juan? The 12 people who showed up are not happy.

Oh look its our star leadoff hitter

Thornton threw an 0-2 hanging curveball down the middle.

 

That isnt the Matt Thornton of last year.

Here comes another K

How, again, is Thornton not a closer? His D has screwed him for the second time. His stuff didn't vaporize overnight.

 

People seem to forget his bad end to the season due to medical issues. His stuff is not good right now, as his fastball is 2 mph short.

Im sure Mark said that he was tired, no way does Ozzie not give his starter a chance.

 

As much as I agree Ozzie isn't ultimately to blame for this game... what you just said is provably false.

BOOOOOOOO!!!!

The team looks good. Better than I expected at least, but unless they're killing it in first place for most of the season, attendance won't go up.

Crap

we lost :(

He has to. Even if Dunn were to PH and homer, he has zero OFs.

It was his slider. The one he hardly throws because it is bad. He doesn't have a curveball.

Opponents closers have no trouble getting the job done. Another terrible loss.

When your LF costs you two wins in ten games, you've got a big problem.

This has been a frustrating season so far. Funny that we go all in everywhere but our bullpen, and it's killing us.

f*** YOU OZZIE! You f***ing idiot just cost us another ballgame. So frustrating having mental midgets making clearly the wrong decisions at every turn

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:43 PM)
Nonsense. Ozzie is probably the worst in game manager in the league, especially at making decisions with his pitching staff. This one is on Oz

 

He manages by his gut - he needs a gut replacement.

 

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 08:45 PM)
No this one isnt on Ozzie.

 

Unless you forget the only reason that the Sox were even up 1-0, is that Lillibridge a player only Ozzie would even have on his team hit the hr to put them ahead.

 

Im sure Mark said that he was tired, no way does Ozzie not give his starter a chance.

Thornton deserves a shot at the closer role, but this is another strike against, Im not sure how many more chances he gets to be honest.

 

i think the dropped ball may give him a pass in ozzie's eyes.

Teahen to LF, Dunn to 1B.

Dunn could play 1B and Teahen could go to the OF.
