I swear Lindstrom pitches every damn game

We have to be worst in the league at both holding and throwing out runners.

 

You just can't give them a gift run like that. Sad.

8 straight...Ventura is trying to shake up the lineup, but you can't hide garbage hitters that won't be around next year.

 

Please be ok Peavy!

SEATTLE -- Jake Peavy left after only 2 1/3 innings because of a rib pain on his left side Tuesday night as the Chicago White Sox lost at Seattle 7-4 for their eighth consecutive loss.

 

Manager Robin Ventura visited the mound after Peavy allowed a two-run double to Raul Ibanez on an 88 mph fastball. After a long conversation that included trainer Herm Schneider, Peavy walked off the field with Schneider.

X-rays taken at Safeco Field were negative, and Peavy is scheduled to undergo an MRI Wednesday in Seattle.

 

Peavy allowed seven hits, including a two-run home run to Ibanez in that capped a three-run first inning. He didn't strike out a batter while throwing 32 of 42 pitches for strikes.

 

Peavy allowed six runs on eight hits in four innings against the Cubs in his last start Thursday. Brian Omogrosso replaced Peavy and allowed an RBI double to Nick Franklin that originally was ruled a home run until the umpires reviewed the play and changed the call.

 

Peavy missed one start at Texas on May 1 because of back spasms. But his effectiveness has tailed off recently. He struck out 66 in his first nine starts but has struck out only three in his last two starts.
