Timo's error added 22 pitches to Contreras' pitch count.

I know it was an error on Timo and I'm not saying it shouldn't be but...

WTF kinda throw was that by AJ?

 

1) Molina waited cuz he thought it was foul

2) Molina is the slowest dude in the league

3) He was about 25 feet down the line

 

Why would you gun it?

Goddamit.  These Ozzie apologists are going to make me puke.  Once I saw Walker coming into the game, I said to my girlfriend, "Oh s***."  I'm not an MLB manager but even I knew that trouble was brewing.

 

There was not a single person in chat that was optimistic when Walker was brought in. Nor was there anyone optimistic about Timo at 1b.

I'm sorry but thats just to hard. Its just too tough finding people who speak "Uribe" these days.

It's also hard to find another SS who swings the bat so poorly.

BTW, attendace was piss poor for a Wednesday Night Game in June. And save the school thing, because I just barely started school today again and it doesn't take out much time from your schedule. I know today was the last day for many private schools. Even Jesse White spoke on this on Chicago Tribune Live how it's amazing that White Sox don't show up to games even though they are much farther ahead than the Cubs. Where's the support at home???

 

The attendance for the last two nights have been really disappointing.

No one gives a hit about the attendance. We care about W's.

They got meatball after meatball from Walker.  Even the Sox would have likely scored against someone like Walker pitching.  How many times are we supposed to tip our cap to different pitchers or hitters?

 

I wasn't referring specifically to how they beat up Walker. I thought they looked better at the plate through the whole series. Against all of our pitchers. We won 2 because our starters looked better than their starters. Mcpherson looks like he is hitting his stride in our prsence. I've never seen Molina look to be on the ball like he was in this series. Finley is showing signs of busting out. Anderson was doing what Anderson ususally does. Kennedy looked dangerous. Etc, etc.

 

Everyone talks about the Sox, but there are 2 teams out there on the field.

Once I saw Timo in the lineup at 1st I knew he'd find a way to screw up.

 

This was a LOSS waiting to happen.

 

What I don't get is that we always put in a piece of s*** lineup after we've already clinched the series win...GO for the sweep.

Good point about the hitting. I'll agree with you that they looked to be on everything we threw. It might also be because our pitchers this series didn't seem very sharp at all.

If we lose out on the division by less than 5 games to the Twins, Ozzie's lineups in the last game of the series will be as much of a cause for it as anything else.

Why in God's name couldn't Paulsy start at 1st base considering tomorrow is an off-day? Does it take Paulsy 2 days of rest to regain his strength so he can hit .225 the rest of the month?

No.

 

We keep getting this type of managing and bullpen performance, and we won't have a chance of making the playoffs. We're nowhere good enough to overcome these type of negative performances.

And this is a problem. No excuses can be made and we're still in first place having our best season in years and not even 20,000 at a game on a beautiful night? Poor, poor, poor.

I know today was the last day for many private high schools and most people are in summer break in college(I'm personally taking summer classes).

what section were you in?

Don't b**** about attendance until you go to every game.

Kenny needs to bring up someone else or make a trade. Jizzcaino and Dingo are currently jizz-moppers. We need to add about 2 lefty relievers because Cotts can't gets lefties out either.
