chw42 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ May 20, 2011 -> 09:42 PM) another case of a s*** player beating the Sox do they even employ a scouting department? He was hitting .091 before tonight's game. That was definitely unexpected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2HH Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 (edited) QUOTE (kitekrazy @ May 20, 2011 -> 09:41 PM) We've been waiting for that since the turn of the century. I think thats why they called it, thinking he'd be thinking theres no way he'd throw another fastball.. This was in response to fathom...not you...don't know what happened.

Princess Dye Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 QUOTE (BearSox @ May 20, 2011 -> 09:37 PM) I have a feeling Thornton will be back to his old self by July. It's obvious now though that making him closer was not good for his head. No evidence points to this. Evidence is he has fallen off physically. Why didn't he fall apart last year when he was given a career high in save opportunities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ May 21, 2011 -> 02:42 AM) Terrible pitch selection of 2-1 fastball to a guy that showed he can hit a fastball. Horrible call for that pitch. If he sticks with sliders, we win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmab man, guys who hit fastballs have struggles with sergio. He left a ball up and out over the plate. Somehow I doubt that was the pitch called for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't he fall apart last year when he was given a career high in save opportunities? It's probably not physical. The velocity's there. He's just locating poorly, which could be a mental or mechanical issue. He has been better as of late, but he's still not himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Do the Sox ever blow anybody out? Seems like we have close games every night out the last couple weeks but I may be forgetting some games.

fathom Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Well, I've seen these swings before by the Sox at home in the 9th/extra innings. Rios had some great pitches to hit, but god forbid he ever contribute to the Sox winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
