Baines3 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Great game. We got the key hits when we needed them, Bobby Jenks gave me a scare in the bottom of the 9th but he got the job done. The number of White Sox fans in Cincinnati is amazing. There must be some smart people in Cincinnati to be Sox fans!!! Jose pitched a good game. We owe George Steinbrenner a big thank you for the letting Jose go to the Sox!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he does show up, he could (and probably will) easily give up 5 runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's asking a lot from him. Hopefully he can build on his last outing and give us a chance to win tomorrow. A sweep would be really nice going into a tough series at St. Louis.

SoxAce Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 I'll say this, Garland can at least swing the bat pretty good for a pitcher. 16 K's for sox pitching tonight..? That'll work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 QUOTE(SoxAce @ Jun 17, 2006 -> 08:46 PM) Time to update my Brian Anderson getting hot meter.. According to Baseball Prospectus if he keeps up his current pace he will have the greatest year defensively for a CF since 1887, yes 1887. From Baseball Prospectus: Last week, responding to the struggles of rookie centerfielder Brian Anderson, who is hitting .163/.263/.296 in 157 plate appearances, the ever-unpredictable Ozzie Guillen announced the team was going to stay the course in center. Bolstering Guillen's support was his belief that no one else in the organization "can play center field [well enough] to win a championship." Usually, such proclamations are based upon a misguided understanding of the dynamics of winning baseball, in that run production is inherently far more valuable than defense, and also easier to accurately evaluate. Last year's White Sox team, however, revealed just how powerful elite defense can be, and thus Guillen's words can't be simply laughed off. Anderson has indeed been horrific at the plate, with a negative 8.8 VORP. Through his first 54 games in center, though, he has saved 10 runs more than the average center fielder by RAA, and 15 more than a replacement glove. Anderson is producing on defense at a RATE of 124, meaning that if he keeps up his current play he'll have saved an astounding 24 runs above the average centerfielder (think the once-spectacular Andruw Jones since 2004) over 100 games. Since 1900, no centerfielder has kept up a 124 RATE for a full season--not Willie Mays, Tris Speaker, Curt Flood, or Jim Edmonds: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 I thought we decided last year that using the sweep icon wasn't allowed until an actual sweet. Damn, I'm so superstitious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's going to have to hit at least a little bit. He's starting to come around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
