bmags Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) Theories welcome. I'm at a loss. Hard to enjoy someone that never results in wins, I hate our offense for it, but we're on like 100% turnover now. Edit: not anti Q, just flabbergasted by this Edited June 18, 2016 by bmags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip Man 1 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 The only thing I can think of is the players know what's going on with him and they start pressing to try to get him some runs...which only seems to make things worse. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark I think that's probably the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 QUOTE (Markbilliards @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 05:09 AM) I think that's probably the case. It's uncanny how many runners the Sox leave on base. Looked like we were going to steal this game late for Q, but they stranded Avi after his clutch hit. Not sure why Anderson was trying to bunt for a hit instead of concentrating on bashing a single to give the Sox the lead. This series has the feel of an easy Cleveland sweep.

caulfield12 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 As Stone said, if he got it down, with the defensive positioning at that time...it was a sure run. But yeah, it put him down in the hole 0-2 and that was all she wrote. And Frazier continues to be a dead zone in the line-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish our guys would stop bunting until further notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted June 18, 2016 Author Share Posted June 18, 2016 We have 100% turnover since 2013 on offense. This is just ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 18, 2016 -> 06:55 AM) http://www.southsidesox.com/2016/6/17/1196...-of-fame-plaque Jose Quintana's future HOF plaque. This is one of the five funniest things I've seen all year, at least White Sox-related. Great job!!! That is so not funny I always tend to reflect on this when I think about a pitcher's won-lose record. I believe it was last season that Buehrle was given 6+ runs over 9 innings. He always seemed to get great run support. I can't believe it is always the players. I believe some is the pitcher. But this is probably one of those the pitcher can only help and probably not hurt situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonxctf Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 He works too slow and the guys fall asleep in the field? Goes deep in counts with batters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 He has to work slowly with runners on base because if he gives up one run, he's done. No margin for error, how can you blame him for pitching so carefully in those situations when every game starts with a razor-thin margin for success?

That doesn't explain Dunn, LaRoche and Frazier. Maybe it does explain it, otoh...since LaRoche doesn't believe in the value of school. Is that a millennial value?

Sale has an era in the sixes and has 11 wins. His ERA is 2.94. I'm not sure where you got that number from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
