QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 19, 2012 -> 02:21 PM) I also left last year. I got a little tired of a group of so called Mods playing God about warnings and suspensions. I always preferred SoxTalk and enjoyed it going on 10 years now and spent 90 % of time here anyway. I was permanently banned from WSI.I got really tired of some of the mods playing god. Banned me for 2 weeks for fixing someone's post. It was just a harmless joke and I got a 2 week ban for it. In total I was probably banned for 2 months.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 18, 2012 -> 08:07 PM) Both pitchers can make it, but neither can make a bad pitch to power hitters with 2 men on base. One of them has done it twice in 4 innings, the other has hardly done it. I doubt both pitchers make it.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 18, 2012 -> 08:01 PM) The guy's stuff is damn near indistinguishable from Quintana's, Pedro having a better change and Q having a better cutter. They pitch exactly the same, strategy wise. Pedro got rushed up a year too early. s*** happens, he got roughed up by a very good hitting offensive club in a hitter's park. Wonder if they'll have him get another inning, that's big developmental time for a young guy and I don't think we will want to cook any more bullpen arms. Jose Quintana will more than likely unravel very soon. I saw him in the Padres organization. This guy is nothing that we dont already have in the minors.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 18, 2012 -> 07:57 PM) He will. He's not that bad guys, let's not get crazy. He may be a very valuable back of the rotation arm for us at some point. Ive been watching him for some time(Since we acquired him). I would be happy if he contributed anything to this club in a positive way at some point. I doubt he does. His pitches really arent that good. He doesnt have anything that would fool major league pitchers on a daily basis.

If only Simon Castro didnt just get off the DL.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 18, 2012 -> 07:55 PM) Note to self: don't pitch to Cody Ross Note to self: Dont let Pedro Hernandez pitch for this organization again.

There it is

Yeah so this kid cant get anyone out.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 18, 2012 -> 07:35 PM) Soxtalkers hate pitchers without heat This isnt unusual for Hernandez.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 16, 2012 -> 08:48 PM) Did they ever say who's pitching Wednesday? Sounds like Pedro Hernandez

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jul 16, 2012 -> 08:45 PM) We've had one major injury to our bullpen and cut our worst reliever. How far has it really gotten? Jhan Marinez Brian Omogrosso Leyson Septimo

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 16, 2012 -> 08:43 PM) Yay rookie bullpens Were definitely on the same page with that fathom.

The real question is why is a rookie who has VERY questionable control on this roster? Kenny shouldnt have let it get this far.

Apparently Nate Jones is starting to crap himself now. Been like that the last few times he has been out there.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jul 16, 2012 -> 08:38 PM) So Matt Thornton wasn't a viable option. In a 1-1 game you start either your left handed experienced relief guy, or a guy who might have a hard time hitting a brick wall with his fastball. Its not rocket science with this one. We have a rested bullpen. Never said that at all.This was a bad decision.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 16, 2012 -> 08:36 PM) Again, is Thornton hurt? If not, it's ridiculous he wasn't used this inning. Thats great but he is the only reliable guy we have left(not counting Addison). Not much to work with. Pretty upset the bullpen has gotten to this point. They are playing with fire.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 16, 2012 -> 08:34 PM) Ventura has alot to learn This is his first year. Give the man a break. Its not like the bullpen has a bunch of AAA players in it or anything.

Kenny we need bullpen help!

There it is

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 16, 2012 -> 08:30 PM) Septimo not ready for prime time. Playing with fire with these rookies in the bullpen

He should have been out on that curve ball anyway.

I thought that was strike. Why did Dunn look at that?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 15, 2012 -> 02:57 PM) Sweet. Never heard of him. Im actually pretty excited to see him pitch. Kenny was hyping him a ton about a month ago. He has been pretty steady in AA.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 15, 2012 -> 02:52 PM) Is he any good? Yes
