If this is Reinsdorf's version of "all in", I shutter to think what not being "all in" looks like..

You blame JR for Adam Dunn, really?

 

Who would you have signed as DH? Certainly, you wouldn't have kept Mark Kotsay and Andruw Jones?

that statement was for the high fastball he took a whack at

 

Oh ok.

Well most teams put their best hitter in the 3 hole.

 

Never has an "off the end of the bat" home run meant so little I guess about a player's progress. Something has got to be done about the offense. You have to score runs to win, and having an offense that struggles mightily to score more than 2 runs against a starting pitching isn't going to get it done.

Wow Carlos did you not even watch the ball?

Carlos Quentin was a spectator there.

Beckham with a rare mistake on a play he usually makes about 90% of the time.

 

Not an error, but he actually overran it.

He was watching Gordon, not the ball. Would have hit him in the head if he got any closer.

Not Beckham's ball AT ALL.

another game where the team in front of us are losing with a perfect opportunity to chop the lead and we are failing again

C'mon Ohman you loogy

That was Quentins ball.

If anything Beckham hustled so hard that it made Carlos think it wasnt the rfs play.

 

Cant blame Beckham there, its 100% the rfs ball.

And it's not like we're facing Zach Greinke or Gil Meche when he was going good.

 

This is a raw kid with a great arm but no idea where the ball's going who just happens to be 0-6. That's not an accident. Major league hitters make adjustments.

 

 

They might have to do the unthinkable and move Pierre to CF and bring up Viciedo and create an atrocious outfield defensive alignment.

great job by Ohman to come back there, hopefully they don't leave him to face Butler would just be completely stupid

This isn't like the beginning of the season where we were facing ace after ace. The Sox have faced some really mediocre starting pitching of late, and have very little to show for it offensively.

good job to get out of it

The Rodrigo Lopez pitching clinic should prove that crappy pitching can shut down crappy hitting.

how close was that from being gone?

That was some vintage TCQ shooting it into RC

how close was that from being gone?

 

Well the hawk didn't give it a stretch or a get on back there.

how close was that from being gone?

 

5-10 feet short of the track. But if he hit a little higher on the ball, it would have been a massive HR.

Come on Lilli just a single gets us 1 run closer.
