witesoxfan Posted May 30, 2003 Share Posted May 30, 2003 I said last night that what we got in the top of the 9th was just a fluke. The teased us with what they could do. I said that we'd get little offense again today, but that Loaiza would come in and shut the Jays down. I figured around 3 runs....because they aren't hitting as bad as they were last week...and they've always played decently against the Jays.. Cory Lidle, a guy that shut us down last week with mediocre stuff, also pitched for them. I find this win huge, not only because we just split a series with a tough Toronto team, but because we got good starting in all 4 games. Not great in all 4 games(though we got great pitching in the last 2), but good, solid starting. I predicted a 3-2 win last night....and we won 3-2. Hey BMR, you just lost the board psychic role!

Hey BMR, you just lost the board psychic role! we left a lot of guys on base and we were a few hits from breaking this one wide open....I feel good about this especially since Lidle was pitching and we are on the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted May 30, 2003 Author Share Posted May 30, 2003 Also....cdub....this is what I was referring to. 58th post in "NO f***IN WAY" They just teased you. I promise tomorrow, there will be a very good pitcher's duel. Though it looks good....it really isn't. This team, when hot, has big innings. That is why we get into funks like this....because when you flat out don't get the big inning, you aren't going to get many runs. I'll try to make a prediction for the final score of tomorrow's game.... 3-2, White Sox win. We'll see if I'm right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew last night was a fluke(offensively, that is) We haven't proven s*** that we could score runs on a consistent level.. So not going out on a limb saying yesterday was a fluke..no doubt..

witesoxfan Posted May 30, 2003 Author Share Posted May 30, 2003 Also, when someone says... it really means you LOVE to brag..so who you kiddin LMAO. I won't predict scores....because I don't know how the offense will respond to this win. It may come to life after such a win because they are playing a weaker team, it may go dead because they are playing a weaker team(it happened when we played Detroit, it could happen again when we play Cleveland, whose pitching is much better then Detroit's). I hate predicting stuff like this, especially against such a team like the Indians, because it's so hard to say they'll lose. I'll try anyways. Sabathia is going tomorrow for Cleveland...and over his past 4 starts, he has pitched quite well. I figure he'll probably beat us....and if you want a score, I'll guess and say 5-3 Indians win. On Saturday....Buehrle will pitch solid, and the offense will "come to life"....and the Sox will win 8-4. On Sunday....Bart will just come out and dominate....I'll say a CG for him, and a 5-2 win for the Sox. On Monday....I have a feeling Jon will come down to earth a bit....and the Sox will win 5-4. Now that I've made those predictions....it's time to see how many times I am wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted May 30, 2003 Share Posted May 30, 2003 we left a lot of guys on base and we were a few hits from breaking this one wide open umm since when havent we left a ton of guys on base.... geez us thats our trademark these days.....get em on and leave them hanging..........

witesoxfan Posted May 31, 2003 Author Share Posted May 31, 2003 You know, for a guess, I was pretty f***ing close. We lost 7-3, I said 5-3....what's the difference(other then 2 runs....had to point that out or else some smart ass will comeback and say that)?

We lost 7-3, I said 5-3....what's the difference(other then 2 runs....had to point that out or else some smart ass will comeback and say that)? Youre good at this. I've always felt I've needed to see 3 in a row before I believe it. You can get lucky with 2....but the third one is key. That's another reason why I feel this is a make or break year for Big Frank.....and it has been a big year for Buehrle. You do it for 3 straight....you are for real. For a score....I don't know if that will be right....but I am pretty sure the Sox will win tomorrow...or if what I have heard from the guys talking during the game is right....we won't lose(supposedly, the forecast has a s*** load of rain headed towards Cleveland as I type). Assuming we can play tomorrow....I think 8-4 could be very close. The guy pitching for the Indians tomorrow has a career ERA of 6.25 or so against the Sox....and if Buehrle and the defense behind him show up like they did in Toronto....along with a bullpen that pitches better then it did in Toronto in relief of Buehrle....4 runs could be very close to what they get. We'll just have to see. As for lottery numbers....I'll just stick to baseball, where I can actually have a basis for my predictions/guesses.

Winning is the most important thing, something Cubs fans forgot about 30 years ago. I will give the Cubs the fact that they are going in the right direction....somewhere we haven't gone since 2000.

I dunno bout that. I mean i like their rotation. The rest of their team blows. They do have some good hitters....Choi is a good, young hitter, and Hill has been made into the second coming(though I don't see him as much more then a mediocre leadoff hitter). Patterson's gonna be a hell of a hitter someday too. I've said this from the day I joined the boards....the day SamME leaves the Cubs will be the best moment in Cubs history, aside from their two World Series championships. While he is gone, they play .550 or so ball...and the day he comes back, they lose 9-1. I don't know if those two are related. Anyways....I don't think their offense really matters at this point. All I said was that they are headed in the right direction, and we are not. They add a good hitter here or there...and they are a 95 win team. If they win the Series before us(and that will be a cold day in hell if that happens), we are pretty much f***ed as an organization.
