Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 10:40 PM) Yes, I know this. That wasn't my question now. It's mind boggling how bad he is though in non save situations and how badly he blows saves when he blows them. I could handle 1-2 runs. But 3 or more is horse s***. Nail in this coffin. Begin to place guys on the block. f*** it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanne Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 you might as well trade Sale before he explodes on everybody in this organization and tells everybody to f*** off!!! Geezus...how many of these f***ing games can this team possibly waste this year in the 8th and 9th inning. And these jackasses wonder why 12-14K people show up to games...

ChiSoxFanMike Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 11:34 PM) No. He was erratic. This was the right call. He's a $50 million closer. Do your job. Rusty but get it done. Yeah, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pettie4sox Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 11:42 PM) Blow it up. Let the kids play. So many of us have been saying this for so long. This is what it looks like to play the "go for it every year game" and perennially fail. Yep, it's time. This organization has consistently tried the band aid method and haven't even sniffed the playoffs. Frazier, Melky, Roberston, Duke, and whoever else you can punt for prospects sounds good.

I get more enjoyment out of younger players now anyways because this team sucks and there's no point in getting hopes up. But I can't blame tonight on Robin except the stolen base attempt by Avi. That's flat out bad. But Robertson was the right call. Sale was wild in the 8th and at 99? pitches. It's over. Goodbye. See ya later. Ovah! Now sell boys.

Y2Jimmy0 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jul 18, 2016 -> 11:36 PM) I feel like Robertson has been decent in saves situations but really bad in non save situations. Was this just rust? Better than decent. He had a 1.04 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and 11 K/9 in save situations before tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Sale pitched one inning in the last 10 days. Should have been given at least one runner in the 9th, especially with Robertson being rusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Lind did a great job of hitting that pitch too. If he swung and missed it's probably a wild pitch since Robertson missed on location by about 2 1/2 feet judging by where Navarro set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lip Man 1 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 And this my friends is why pitch counts are ruining baseball. No justification, none... for pulling Sale unless he was hurt in some way. Sale is like Jack McDowell was with that 'bulldog' mentality, the odds are very good he wanted to finish the game and possibly throw his second career one-hitter. Are we having fun yet?

Mark This team is just awful. In the past three games - you've had two games, TWO - where the starters went 16 innings giving up a COMBINED 3 hits, ZERO runs.... And NO WINS TO SHOW FOR IT????? Absolutely INEXCUSABLE. Fire Robin. Can KW. Sell anyone not named Anderson, Fulmer, Eaton, and Or keep Sale / Q / Shields / Fulmer / Rodon / Abreu / Eaton / Anderson in tact and build to compete in 2018. Still fire Robin and KW. 2017 is a wash no matter what they do. We're s*** up a creek and it's because they've been trying to compete and "retool" since 2013. It doesn't f***ing work. Sell the farm and hope to compete around 2020... Or spend like crazy and try to compete in 2018. Both directions involve a lot of pain but it's been 4 years of poor in between choices that put us here. f***ing disgusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
