Lawrie going yard

Anyone playing Overwatch this weekend?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 5, 2016 -> 07:47 PM) This is just going to fry the bullpen. Not sure I'd ever thought I'd say this but it would have been nice for Caroll to be in the roster tonight. I'm sure he would have been if it wasn't for his injury.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ May 5, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) Hope this year doesn't turn into another 2003. Wasn't that the year where the lack of a 5th starter sunk the team? Yep

Will we ever see EJ again after tonight?

Absolutely no command so far

Great start

Rollins

What's the number tonight caufield?

QUOTE (God Loves The Infantry @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:52 PM) If we're calling Ortiz a cheat because of the 2009 PEDs thing, we should probably discuss Bill Clinton being a rapist, too. Accused of the crime, but probably did not commit it. Let's lay off the dude. Didn't he admit to failing the drug test? And what an asinine comparison not gonna touch the rest of that post.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:50 PM) In double the at bats I.e. he is not exclusively our LOOGY and it wasn't giving up putting him in. We've used him for full innings the last two weeks. If he faced lefties in double the at bats...that would be just evidence he's indeed a loogy. Not sure where you're going with that. I get how we've used him as of late, and as I said Id rather see Jennings as the primary non loogy lefty. It's just playing with fire letting Duke face righties with his stuff these days.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:43 PM) Because he's a pitcher that's also successful vs righties? Because he is used for full innings after Robin initially eased him in? He's better against lefties but not by a lot, if you remember way back to last year or the year before that he was a set up man. Uh if we remember "way back" to last year, then you should remember righties destroying him. They put up a .OPS last year, 200 points higher than him vs lefties.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:38 PM) Me too but he's not exactly a lefty specialist, he's had years with more success can righties I think that's the point. Jennings has reverse splits-ish. Why leave Duke in vs righties when you got Jennings who has been phenomenal vs both as of late.

QUOTE (shysocks @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:32 PM) Duke isn't a LOOGY and he shouldn't be behind Jennings. Go have a look at his game log, he was rolling before tonight. He had 9IP in 15 appearances. That's a loogy.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:31 PM) I'm sure they don't expect Johnson to go long tomorrow That means we're likely to lose then if Johnson doesn't last. Punting tonight in a close game tonight doesn't make a lot of sense to save your bullpen.

I don't like Robin punting a close game.

Robin giving up by letting Duke face some righties.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:23 PM) And another strikeout for Jerry Sands. That is an amazing 18 in 36 ABs Okay there it is. Davidson would be jealous.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:23 PM) Good job, White Sox bullpen!!!!! Limited the damage to only one run when things could have been a lot worse. Robin Ventura's the early favorite for AL Manager of the Year, Adam Eaton's the best defender in baseball and Carlos Rodon just might be learning how to pitch... Is that better? Lol What's Sands k rate up to now?

Reminder that David Ortiz is a cheater.

Putnam rocking a WHIP under 1

QUOTE (soxfan85 @ May 4, 2016 -> 09:03 PM) Putnam coming in to give up some runs. He wont

Fire that security guard

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 4, 2016 -> 08:46 PM) Bit upset here seeing Bychol suddenly find his groove when pitching against the Sox He won't survive the 7th. No one ever does.
