Looking at 8th loss at home in a row. Way to drive interest in Sox baseball. :angry:

I am so tired of 2 out hits against the Sox all FN year. Royals own the Sox.

 

I know. Meanwhile we get a gift from KC when they throw the ball in center and we can't score Lexi from third.

These things add up. It was 2-0, shoulda been 3-0. Now we are staring at a 2-run deficit.

White Sox season from hell continues unless Paulie can hit a couple more bombs.

So if Butler goes up the middle as well as Stone says, why was Omar (nice range there buddy) playing more in the hole? Makes little sense, as Quentin was playing very far off the line.

Yep, 108 pitches when he could have easily been pulled after about 80. Ozzie is just such a f***ing moron.

Look there's nothing wrong with pushing him to 108, that's a good workout for him, push him as long as he can go every time out.

 

Just understand what that last clause means...when he gets in trouble, that has to be it, pull the plug there.

Greg, when will you finally admit that Ozzie has no clue how to manage his personnel?

Peavy himself is going to go 0-3 vs. KC this year...ungodly.

Peavy will come out for next inning which should be brutal.

 

He needs to be a long reliever right now. He can't go more than 4 innings. What use is that?

But if you're actually trying to compete, the long outings have resulted in him having nothing on the mound for a few weeks after.

He got through 4 scoreless innings, hard to say he had "nothing". Once he got to the 3rd time through, that was it.

 

Flowers with a BOMB.

Let's face it. You despise Ozz and I like him.

 

Nice hit, Tyler.

 

Hoch has NOTHING. Just like Jake.

Tyler Flowers...nice.

That ball was launched.

I still don't like the lean in his swing, but if he makes contact, he'll hit. The only issue is the K's.

That was very impressive by Flowers!! And balta, he wasn't fooling anyone in the 4th inning though and I don't believe he had a strike out after the first time through.

I was thinking the same thing omar needs to call it a career

He had 4 K's through 3 innings, so he started the game with something.

 

The only way I ever get conditioned to do something athletically is to do it.

Hoch is as bad tonight as Jake. We need to take advantage and take the lead here.

Nice bloop, Juan.

Now our #2 htiter will bunt, killing our chance of a big response inning.

Frankly I'd rather see Omar bunt than hit into a DP.

It looked like he was going all out to start the game, as I even mentioned he seemed to be pushing himself early on and overthrowing (weird reactions by him). He was throwing 92 mph early on, but that seemed to be his peak. The issue now is to wonder if he really only be a 75-85 pitch pitcher for the rest of his career?

In Greg,s defense the personneel sucks

That 2-0 pitch to Omar was meat.

The 2-1 pitch screamed 'hit me.' I don't like Omar no more.

You don't make Venezuelan gods bunt.

Hoch is dumb enough to throw Paulie another high fastball.

If he can get to 108 last time otu, then he just needs to strengthen the muscles enough to last that much every time.
