It probably would be easier as a Sox fan to just forget about watching when we play the Twins, especially on the road.

At home we might win one out of five or something.

They'd need a new GM and manager.

 

That'd be fine with me.

Pavano had 2 double plays turned behind him in his first 13 starts. 4 tonight.

 

 

Sox after game"Well Pavano threw the daylights out of the ball. He was hitting his spots and keeping us off balance. You just have to tip your cap to him."

 

Corpseball translation " Well he refused to throw fastballs down the cock after pitch one. For some reason he threw pitches that were slower or moved. These were especially tricky. The straight pitch that is slow was very hard to lay off. The one that moves away and down. Wow. never seen that one before. Our scouting reports said that Pavano would pump in fastballs after fastballs trying to hit the center middle in. He went away from his plan and threw the balls into the dirt. Now also the scouting report was a bit light on their defense. Because it said if you just pull everything to the left side of the diamond. They would get tired and would let them go by. This was not the case. Hey did someone see who is setting up the card game tonight. "

Such a lifeless performance

 

But what reason do we have as fans to expect anything different?

 

Because it's almost like you are rolling heads 22 times in a row and it SEEMS like the luck has to change at some point?

 

If the White Sox haven't addressed the "Twins Issue" internally, as an organization, they deserve to lose if they're still pounding that square peg into a round hole. Something tells me KW is just that arrogant and pig-headed to think his vision will win out over an actual strategy/execution/fundamentals/scouting.

Every single is an automatic double against us, unless maybe it was Konerko hitting against us somehow, and even then it'd be close.

Konerko could steal on AJ

I'll never understand why we didn't try to upgrade our catching position by going after Olivo.

5 SB against................AJ move on.

100% spot on.

I really love the fact that they're stepping all over our pitchers and AJ's neck and exposing one of the most glaring and obvious weaknesses in all of MLB.

I wouldn't call Gavin's start lifeless. He had his usual brain-fart early in the game but like he did before, he settled down and held them down.

It is laughable that the Twins' strategy always against the Sox is to steal almost every time a runner is on first.

Throw a bunt in there once in a while.

The automatic double does not help our chances of beating Minnie.

Ha, another run.

spoke too soon

Gavin left in way too long tonight. Twins with great swings against him this inning. Oh well, what a bad performance by entire team.

Edited by fathom

Terrible the Twins could be 0-50 and beat the Sox no problem.

Lot of hits allowed to a split-squad lineup.

"Tip your cap"

Bah 3, 4, doesnt really matter. Still a decent start for Gavin.

Beaten by the Rochester Red Wings.... Awesome.....

 

Pierre and Walker will be in the dugout tomorrow, that should LITERALLY be a crime....
