Dick Allen Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 QUOTE(whitesox1976 @ May 13, 2006 -> 08:38 PM) I agree with you. Don't worry about the Tigers, there is no way they will be able to keep up at the pace there at all season. I remember back in 1975 I think it was, the Tigers were in first place at the all star break then finished in last place. They'll fade. If their pitching holds up, they will be there, and their owner is dying to spend lots of money, so look for some reinforcements if they are close at the deadline.

Guest JimH Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Starting? Yes, he's been swinging well but he looks especially locked in to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 13, 2006 -> 08:40 PM) He looks like the second coming of Santana. Could we trade AJ for Liriano and Nathan? How does that guy keep his job. Latroy hawkins for anyhting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 I don't know about anyone else, but I'm looking forward to the battles Francisco Liriano and Lance Broadway will be having for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Liriano is good and all, but not everyone of our hitters should be striking out this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSH2005 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 I'd rather face anyone else than Liriano right now. Liriano with 4 K's in 2.1 IP. It's going to be fun facing him for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSqwert Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Bad starting and relief pitching, virtually no offense and lousy umps = 3 game losing streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Our pen should watch the twins pen attack the strikezone. We have some guys with good arms. If they give the hitters 2-0, 3-1 counts they will get rocked. If they attack the zone, they will have better success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gene Honda Civic Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ May 13, 2006 -> 08:31 PM) I'll stop complaining when our organization producers or trades for a pitcher comparable to Liriano. It's that simple. The first team since 1928 to throw 4 straight complete games in the playoffs, and you keep complaining that the Sox don't have a 1-in-10,000 talent in their minor leagues. :headshake It's like you think these players grow on trees or something. It's worth noting that Minnesota didn't sign either Liriano or Santana. They stole them both. Yet you keep complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 I'll say this right now.... Twins make it to the playoffs within the immediate future--with a healthy Santana and Liriano in the rotation--they're winning a World Series. Those two possibly pitching three times between them in a 7 game series will be tough to overcome. Not to mention the other coming out of the bullpen in a pivotal game 7, ala Randy Johnson.

Dick Allen Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Hawk needs to quit crying about the umpiring. It wasn't good, although there is no way you could tell if Paulie had his foot on the bag on the one play, I was freeze framing it with TIVO, there is nothing definitive, and Paulie tagging him gives the impression he didn't think he was on the bag. The second one was a swing, but it was missed. I recall the White Sox benefitting greatly from missed calls in the playoffs and WS last season.

southsideirish71 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Hopefully this is a f***ing wake up call. One of the worst offenses in baseball just put up a s*** load of runs in 2 days. Our Offense can get shut down by Johan. That is just mathmatics. But Radke has been meat this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
