DV way overhyped................1-2-3 again.

 

He'll be ok...overhyped yes, but that's just cause expecting the next Vlad Guerrero was idiotic expectations. He does need to start show the ability to hit a fastball over 90 mph without lunging over the plate. Until then, he's going to be nothing but a mistake hitter.

Amen.

If he has a bulging disk, treat it.

 

As far as this game, you have to admit it's a joke EVERYBODY in the league can bash Hochevar cept the Sox.

 

Hochevar's pitched well. Done a good job of throwing strikes when he gets to 3 balls on a hitter. He's gotten very lucky that he got the first out of the last two innings on absolute rockets.

Sox pathectic offense makes alot of mediocre pitchers look good.

Perhaps. But don't you get tired of the Sox struggling against guys abused by the rest of the league? Sox singlehandedly saved Chen's career.

I was actually shocked to see we lead the AL in sac bunts. Doesn't seem like Ventura's been abusing the bunt too much.

some people get some kind of sick pleasure in seeing the Sox fail

 

why don't you just predict good things to happen so you can stroke your ego as we win?

Chen was great against the entire AL Central last year

In other news, Nate Jones is one of the most talented men in the MLB

I mean you can definitely count on multiple limbs the number of times the Sox have been aced by some teams garbage 5th starter in the last few years.

 

Nothing helps get a pitcher going like facing this offense.

Huge inning here for the Sox. If De Aza can get on, things could get interesting.

1.) If you are talking about me, you are sick. I want the Sox to win almost too much as Fathom can attest. Losing freaks me out.

2.) That's after we saved his career. He was s*** til he mowed the Sox down.

Feel bad for the fans with the weather and watching this crap.

Tons of outs made by Sox hitters on offspeed pitches when Hochevar gets to 3 balls. The at bats have been really bad the last two innings.

It's the internet, man. People take some weird pride in being the s***tiest fans possible. I'm an Illini fan too and some of their sites are even worse.

You'll be hard pressed to find a group of fans that doesn't think they get beaten by "nobodies" and "the league's punching bags" etc. too often

Maybe the players want to go back and play more cards in clubhouse.

Hope they at least ate some of the delicious ballpark food.

Also, it's not over at 3-0 necessarily.

Dunn looked at Hochevar like he was about to beat his ass after that quick pitch.

Then why are you watching?

M&M's guy is out there in this s*** weather still and wearing no hat, like a boss.

Yeah, but this nobody had a 9.0 ERA.

Didn't you watch the movie Major League? A lot of us are like that Indians fan played by Randy Quaid.

3 bad starts, 3 good starts so far this year. We're not talking about someone with a 9 ERA in September. Quintero's calling a fantastic game.
