More bad defense.

 

We're going to have to bite the bullet and move Viciedo to 1B next year....his arm/outfield assists can't overcome his lack of range and bad routes, at this point.

Dunn might even be better at 1B than Viciedo.

Danks trying to be too perfect now

No matter what type of pitching we're getting, it's not nearly enough to overcome this type of putrid defense and offense.

 

 

Dear John Danks, you can't by pitching from behind in the big leagues for long.

 

Weird that Dunn didn't bother to throw home.....more stupid baseball. DeJesus was dead to rights.

 

Took too long starting the DP, and didn't get that either.

 

 

Error 2 (this one unofficial) in the inning. Dunn's back in "we can't stand him anymore" mode.

I love how Danks forgot to cover 1B

good for you JD

Damage controlled

happy to get out of that inning only down 1-0. Time to settle down and throw strikes Johnny

Time to hit

Didn't matter. When Dunn delayed going home right away on what was a crisply hit ball, the DP was lost.

 

Probably at least 65-70% they turn that DP, 100% DeJesus is out at home unless Dunn throws it away.

There is no excuse for Dunn there. He did not even look. That is the catchers call though, I wonder if Flowers messed up.

 

Everyone should have known the plan before the play started. They had to have been planning for two outs rather than one run in the first inning.

Those plays at home are always bang-bang, usually you just take the two outs if you can

One way or the other, you make a decision.

 

Go home or try to start the double play...hesitation killed him. It's what tends to happen when you don't play 1st everyday.

Sox continue to look like they've never been coached a day in their life. Then, you get a lineup like this one today that is just awful defensively at 1b, 2b, C, LF and CF.

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ May 29, 2013 -> 07:43 PM)
DeJesus would have been out by three steps.

 

Dunn was much better defensively at 1B last year than he's been this season.

Even the Cubs can't sell out against the White Sox, lol...lots of seats left, apparently.

I want Jordan Danks back up.

For what reason exactly?

So is PK even at Wrigley or is he already pre-gaming for game 7 tonight? Did you know he's going to the game?

Just cause there's lots of empty seats doesn't mean it's not a sellout at Wrigley.

Conor is just tearing it up right now

You're going to bench Viciedo or Dunn, then?

 

If we bring up Danks and Phegley to play everyday, they're punting on the season. That won't be happening.

 

 

Gillaspie has been our best hitter, after Rios. IF he could just manage 12-15 homers per season, that would be quite valuable.

Mike Huff just said b****? WTF hahah

 

Can't wait to mlb.tv that tonight.
