33 pitches to close out a game you have a 3 run lead in.

Finally Sox win 10-8

About freaking time!

Why are we paying Robertson this much money again?

 

It's almost like he forgot he was once successful with the Yankees against the Red Sox.

 

Yikes.

Saladino and Robertson got it done.

What are you talking about? The Sanchez play? He went all out there

No, the defensive indifference. Stolen bases without a throw

No he's talking about letting the guys on 1st advance to 2nd base uncontested . Not recorded as a steal but defensive indifference.

White Sox win again. They're 9-1 on the road in their last 10 games.

 

 

33 pitches to close out a game you have a 3 run lead in.

 

Which means there's pretty much no way you can bring him back tomorrow except for a single batter or two.

 

And now Petricka was extended as well.

 

 

Someone's going to have to step up tomorrow, either the offense or Samardzija.

 

 

19-12 last 31, 9-2/1-6/5-0 (15-8 sounds better!)

 

This means flavum's projected records are about to start appearing again, haha.

Nice play by Saladino. Can't beat making the routine plays! That's a big win in Fenway. I don't care how s***ty the Sawx are, it's nice to win there.

Sox won't be trading Shark now folks. Add a starter and a hitter. Trade some of our prospects to do that I guess.

He got the job done. All that matters.

Albers pitched a lot too. Tomorrow we basically have Putnam, Jennings, and Duke.

We've scored 10 runs in 2 of the last 3 games..

Samardzija goes 8 and Putnam pitches the 9th. Problem solved.

Get the f*** out this thread you f***ing jinx.

Calm down. You are getting awfully mad lately at somebody you don't know, who merely posts stuff on the internet. I am not a jinx. Be careful before you get banned. Just put me on ignore.

 

Nice win, White Sox. Time for the team to keep winning, albeit it's tough to do on the road in a loud park like Fenway.

Good win boys. If you're going to compete ya gota grind these out. Shark will assuredly be pitching tomorrow.

Is this post serious?

Duke has pitched 3 days in a row. We have Webb as well. Luckily Jeff usually goes 7

Actually, I should merely ask why Tyler Flowers is calling 10 consecutive cutters against DeAza when a single well-executed knuckle curve will wipe him out.

 

http://espn.go.com/mlb/stats/pitching/_/sort/blownSaves

 

He's still tied for the major league lead in blown saves. That doesn't mean we're better off with Addison Reed, but he hasn't been the same pitcher he was the first two months of the season, either.

 

My personal belief is he's getting more work in Chicago because there's no Betances/Miller to protect him, and that he's losing some of the crispness and velocity from his cutter. And, for whatever reason, he's become more reluctant to throw knuckle curves (blocking pitches isn't one of Tyler's strengths).

 

At $12-13 million, you're paying a closer elite money...you expect elite results. I counted 9 relievers just on that first page with higher WAR numbers.

Both righties and lefties were hitting under .200 against him coming into tonight...he's given up some very big hits - there is no disputing that - but he's been very, very good.

BMags:

 

Also keep in mind Robertson threw a lot of innings the last few years with the Yankees and that's not counting the times he warmed up and wasn't used. It all adds up.

 

The Sox have to seriously think about moving Danks to the pen if they in fact get back in the race. You simply can't have a guy getting beat up and blowing out the bull pen in three out of every four of his starts. But with what he's getting paid would the Sox do that?

It's not that bad. I quoted the stats last game when Danks dominated. I think he'd been excellent in something like four of eight starts. It's not easy to pitch in Fenway. I expect Shark will have some trouble as well tomorrow. BTW, Stoney was saying Danks had an uncharacteristic start tonight during the wrap part of the broadcast. Why won't the Danks haters accept the fact he's been damn good for a fifth starter. Again ... take the money out of the equation. He's been OK as No. 5 as he continues his comeback from that surgery.

My contention is with this:

...what is this petty line?
