The White Sox do not think 100 pitches is a lot. This isn't news

Usually they still seem to think 110+ is getting there though, at least enough that they don't send a guy out to warm up again.

No, but still doesn't change the fact that was a TERRIBLE decision by RV.

 

but what new....

 

yeah...pretty unacceptable. flat out dumb...

Not to mention this outing for a guy like LIndstrom could be big too.

 

Peavy is not the only guy we are trying to showcase.

Robin had to get the lead down to 3 runs so he could showcase Reed in the 9th.

I'm fine with Robin

 

 

He is learning and sometimes the hard way

He is learning and sometimes the hard way

Has he actually shown any sign of learning a lesson?

Stupid organization. Top to bottom.

 

I hope Ventura lost some people today.

Someone from the front office should've been on the phone saying take him out now . Leaving it in the hands of Ventura very bad.

RV needs to be fired yesterday. What a dumbass.

robin just wanted the scouts to check out addison as well

Fire Ventura

Robin had to get the lead down to 3 runs so he could showcase Reed in the 9th.

 

THATS the best reason I can think of

Has he actually shown any sign of learning a lesson?

 

I did find it funny he complained about the distraction of the trade deadline. Considering the same guys played so stupid all season, it's hard to take that excuse seriously.

Lindstrom could've started the inning come on now.

Flowers owns Verlander because Verlander sucks.

Lindstrom could've started the inning come on now.

 

 

That was my point.

 

Peavy thru 7

Lindstrom 8

Reed 9

 

That's who the scouts want to see.

Take a breath and ask yourself, does that one AB do anything to damage Peavy's trade value?

That is not even close to being the point. Peavy gets hurt then what ? Already missing out on Crain . You'd be looking at a disaster of major proportions.

He didn't get hurt. Nothing happened

That's 70 errors for the Sox this season.

 

ties the total from last season.

 

And 27 more than last season.

It's like Robin doesn't want anyone to be traded.

It wasn't a situation like where Buehrle is going to be a free agent at the end of the year and he wants to get the standing ovation one last time. Again, this risk of him getting injured was far too great there. The fact he gave up a homer is secondary to the decision.

So what the point is you don't risk it .

It's like Robin doesn't want anyone to be traded.

 

He probably doesnt...but in the end he may not be managing this team beyond this year.

And he pitched like s*** when it mattered in that one good season. End of last year, he had two bad starts vs. DET, and in the third one he couldn't even finish the sixth inning. Needed a big win against the Angels, and he got rocked. Kinda similar to his limited postseason career in San Diego.

 

But god forbid you say something bad about Jake Peavy the competitor. I love having him on the Sox, but I can't stand his apology society that says he does nothing wrong.

Actually, no.

 

The question was "what he Jake Peavy done to earn a standing ovation."

It wasn't a situation like where Buehrle is going to be a free agent at the end of the year and he wants to get the standing ovation one last time. Again, this risk of him getting injured was far too great there. The fact he gave up a homer is secondary to the decision.

 

I hope the scouts don't think he's that injury prone, because that would be a ridiculous reason to get hurt. "threw 7 too many pitches" "stood on mound 5 minutes too long"

He probably doesnt...but in the end he may not be managing this team beyond this year.

 

That wouldn't be the worst news
