WOW he had a bad game, holy f*** were 34 games over .500 at worst after this game.  we lost tonight, we didnt play well.  the way i look at it, is when we clinch the division it doesnt matter how many games we win in the regular or post season as long as we win r last game! 

 

lets just go and get them tomorrow!

 

I don't know what's hard to understand here.

 

Because he's our ace DOES NOT mean he's immune from criticism because he pitches a poor game. Just as I'm not implying this one game erases his already stellar season. I've said this start he pitched poorly behind a nice offensive effort. Did he not? And I'm worried about any potential matchups against Oakland or Boston with Buehlre on the mound. Do you believe this isn't justified?

 

Why is it following every win someone can point out how our team is destined for greatness, but following a defeat, no one can criticize any facet of our ballclub without hearing someone use the same rhetoric (best record in baseball, etc).

Oye ve, this is bull. After any loss everyone just freaks out not the other way around.

When did I say not to critize him, I said he suck, cuz he did. Buehrle is my fav. player, but he had a bad game and I said that. I dont understand why your post was directed to me. I agree with all you said. :huh :cheers

Funny, I've yet to see anyone bit their tongue when it comes to critcising any of our players on here.

 

Refer to the thousands upon thousands of posts that criticize and bash the team after a loss...or close win...or bad play...or bad quote...or new hairstyle...etc...

So RH hitters are hitting .112  against Cotts. What are the chances if Damon is retired, Ozzie gets Cotts?

 

Jenks in.

 

Lots of moves this inning to protect the 1 run deficit.

 

NO MOVES TO PROTECT THE GAME AN INNING EARLIER.

Really? So I've never seen anyone claim "JENKS IS A STUD" following a good inning, or "THIS CLUB IS DESTINED FOR GREATNESS" following a victory. How is this any different, or worse, than being critical of Buehlre in one game. Or someone questioning our offense after a poor effort? I'm not putting his entire year under the microscope now.

 

You just have to admit Buehlre's performance was poor and there's reason to be critical of him tonight. Nothing more than this.

you can criticize fine, what most have trouble with (including me) are the ones that never say anything positive, who seem to enjoy criticizing.

Remember the "doubles" thread a few months ago?

 

Criticiziing is fine, alot of times it's deserved, but sometimes people gotta take some time out and smell the roses. THis is as positive a year as we're gonna get.

Really is mind-boggling, isn't it? He trusts our starters more than he does our relievers. As great as our starters have been this year, our big 3 relievers of Cotts/Cliff/Dustin have been 3 of the best in baseball.

Nevermind that Cliff hasn't been as solid as of late, Dustin has a bad back, or that all 3 have been worked fairly heavily...

Cotts vs. RH>Jenks vs. RH

 

QUIT USING COTTS AS A LEFTY SPECIALIST

 

Especially with the risk that Jenks won't have control when he comes in. Cotts is the type of pitcher that if you see he has his good release point/control going, you should leave him in.
