Whitewashed in '05 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 During the game yesterday Hawk said that Zambrano was the best pitcher the sox have faced this season... In no way am I hating on Zambrano because he is a good pitcher with great stuff, but didn't we just get dominated by former Cy Young winner Johan Santana? Lol and he didn't mention Santana. Just wanted to get that out of my system... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Santana is on a much different when he faces us to be considered a pitcher. I think a more appropriate term would be "God". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Yeah, I'd like to know when our offense hit three HR's off Santana and scored 4 runs within the last several seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Spencer Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 I'd rather see our team face Zambrano 4 times a year then having to face Yo-hand's change up 4 times a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wanted to get that out of my system... I watched the game, and what I recall Hawk saying is that Zambrano has some of the best "stuff" in all of baseball. And he is right. He didn't say he was the best PITCHER the Sox have faced. Those are different things. Zambrano COULD be one of the great pitchers in the game, except that he happens to be a mental box of rocks with an out of control temper.

Wrong, he did say Zambrano was the best pitcher the sox have faced so far this season. I am sure he said that, which is why I was really surprised.

He just lacks the stuff between his ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
