The Ginger Kid Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 He's now hitting .098 and still hitting in the middle of the order. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 20, 2013 -> 10:59 PM) Addison Reed and Santiago are the only ones left in the pen, right? This game better not go too deep in to extras.... Maybe Santiago's ability to pitch 6 innings will actually pay off for once in case this goes 16.

southsideirish71 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 opposing teams should walk konerko and rios and pitch to the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 They're seriously pinch running for our best hitter? Jesus Christ Robin, this is awful. It's unlikely we're gonna score this inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 We've heard so much about players changing things under Manto (especially compared to when Walker was here)...it was only a matter of time before something went terribly wrong. Let's hope they can counter adjust. This has moved beyond "just a slump" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Ventura just pinch ran for kong. They need to win now because our offense is just Rios now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunn is a completely different case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 If you want to score without a HR, you need pinch runner for PK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 20, 2013 -> 06:10 PM) Why not run Tekotte and let Greene hit for Gillaspie? Why do you trust Greene more than Gillaspie at the dish? But I agree on Tekotte running, isn't he our fastest bench player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunn is a completely different case. He seemed to have done something helpful with Adam last year. Why not just do that again? I'd love if he doubled his batting average and hit 40 HRs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 T Flow could always go deep. Alexei can handle a bat. So can Gillaspie. Who knows when ADA, Kep will remember how to hit consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 There was no reason to pinch run Greene unless you planned to run with him. He only went on the last pitch of Alexei's PA. SMH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had one extra basehit all day and we have 6 hits on the day, 2 of them belonging to the guy we pinch ran for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn12 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 You pinch run with a guy who not only didn't make any effort to steal, but in fact, was completely lost on the pitcher's movement to home/first. So we lost PK for a stationary runner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
