Veal come on.

This is an 07 ish lineup we are rocking these days.

 

 

At least Josh Fields had his homer binge late in the season and Owens had a 5/5 game against the Twins.

 

With our line-up now, is there anyone even remotely interesting to watch? Mostly Dunn/Flowers, to see how many K's they record or if Tyler will actually get a hold of one and do something amazing and follow it up with 7-10 games of nothingness.

 

With Dayan out, the only other hitter I'm interested in following is Gillaspie at the moment.

 

And Rios...while he's hot.

Thanks Veal for another walk

Loogy in whitesox speak is walk.

6 walks to this team so far.

The Gods gave us Veal last year, but took him away in 2013.

 

Knew it was too good to last...like Politte and Cotts in 2005.

According to ESPN Gamecast, the Twins have a 42.5% chance of scoring here.

 

With our luck, probably the .043 "future star" Hicks will break out of his slump, haha. Can't believe Florimon's over .300 either.

What awful managing this inning. Did Ventura really think Veal vs Doumit was a better match-up for the Sox than Lindstrom vs the young fella in Arcia?

If you flip the teams we would have a 3.6% chance.

Ok, found some 2007 team comparisons....

 

These are numbers before today's game....

 

AVG/OBP/SLG:

2007 - .246/.318/.404

2013 - .239/.276/.396

 

RISP avg:

2007 - .243

2013 - .177

 

R/game:

2007 - 4.28

2013 - 3.41

 

Batting K/9, B/9

2007 - 7.09, 3.28

2013 - 7.47, 1.64

 

 

So yeah, this team is pretty much on pace so far to be the worst offense in my lifetime maybe, or at least since 2000.

Now what?

pen can't throw strikes

Year 2 of learning on the job.

2 walks WTF.

Oh for christ sake

Why the F*&K are we walking a 2 for 43 hitter???????????????

Now CB Buckner has a tight zone.

The white Sox walked Aaron Hicks twice. You can't predict baseball....

Unreal.

Pen's going to walk this run in

Of course, the Wild Thing version of Nathan Jones shows up at an inopportune time. And walks an .043 hitter. Typical. To face the 300+ guy.

Robin overmanaging.

Now CB Buckner has a tight zone.

 

He's been a pile of s*** the entire day

Pen is not going to be perfect every day.

 

Adam Dunn is an embarrassment once again. He really should at least try and bunt against that shift.
