Done.

what a fn joke

To give this game away is unbelievable.

Fire everybody. I don't care anymore.

I'd say there is a near-zero percent chance the bullpen stays this bad. Too much talent in there. I just hope the come around sooner than later.

 

 

I agree

So what do YOU suggest?

 

Bringing back Jenks? Hiring a personal psychologist for each member of the bullpen? Voodoo? Shock therapy? Maybe we should just lobotomize them so they're automated robots who don't know the difference between the 6th and the 9th innings?

 

Yeah, the bullpen and Juan Pierre are huge concerns. But we're acting like we're in the same position as the Red Sox or Rays.

 

We're only 1/16th of the way through the season. We're not going to continue to blow 86% of our save opportunities or KW, Ozzie and/or Reinsdorf will all be lying dead from heart attacks, have resigned or quit. It can't continue like this indefinitely.

 

Or maybe we can underachieve year in and year out and fade out by mid August like we seemingly do every year?

f*** Matt Thornton.

 

Ya'll keep making excuses for him, he is pitching like a pile of dog s***, excreted by Billy Koch.

This is BRUTAL.

I can't believe just ONE aspect (the bullpen) of this otherwise fairly solid team is about as frustrating for me to watch as that damn 2007 season as a WHOLE... and it's barely been a week and a half worth of games.

 

This is just brutal.

Okay for real now... is Thornton hurt or something?

There was less than 10k there last night.

 

yep i even managed to score an extra Big Hurt bobblehead

f*** Matt Thornton.

I am sure this not MT fault either!

OK, now back to back walks by Mr. Thornton...

 

Is it still someone elses fault, and he is still awesome?

 

Face it, he isn't a closer, has failed miserably in each attempt, regardless of defense behind him.

 

Well he isn't closing right now and he is still pitching like s***. The concern isn't that Thornton can't handle the 9th, the concern has to be that he is just awful right now.

Whose fault this inning?

You REALLY have to feel sorry for Danks.

 

No wonder he doesn't want to sign a long-term contract. Who would want to, with the bullpen we're supporting his starts with, and the lack of run support ever since he's been a starter for the White Sox.

People had arm fulls. There was less than 10 people in my entire section.

Just in: Jenks is out for a month-hurt himself laughing

Thornton is absolutely awful this season. What a freaking choker. Way to step up and take control of this bullpen. Serious issues with this bullpen now, as no one besides Santos seems to have confidence. Probably the most disappointing 7-5 record you can imagine.

But he's no longer in a save situation! It's still not his fault!

I am sure this not MT fault either!

 

 

Of course not, the majority of the people on this board think MT can do no wrong. He's been HORRIBLE.

Whose fault this inning?

 

It has to be Ozzies...despite him trying to use just about the entire bullpen, only to have every one of them fail...it's his fault.

Anybody watching this crap sees that Thornton has nothing right now.

His fastball looks so hittable.

He is wild.

He's got nothing (and yes I know he's also had some bad luck defense)

 

The eyetest tells me he needs some time off.
