3E8 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 03:39 PM) Why does Contreras pitch Bradley better than anyone else in this lineup? I swear, the only player he appears comfortable against. Not one forkball has hung, or fastball been thrown away from AJ's spot. Because he doesn't drop down against lefties.

BearSox Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 "After Frank's home run, he was still throwing the ball pretty good," Guillen said of Vazquez. Then why the pitching change? Guillen, the guy who won a pennant managing with his gut, said he was going by the book, calling on Thornton so he would have the lefty-lefty edge against Nick Swisher and Dan Johnson, Oakland's No. 7 and 8 hitters. Vazquez wasn't thrilled. "I felt great, felt good, strong," Vazquez said. "I definitely felt like I could have gone [longer]." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Uribe has definitely played himself out of Chicago. I can't wait for us to be eliminated so Fields and Sweeney can get some playing time, and we can shut down our starting pitchers. That might be the only time I've used "shut down" and "starting pitchers" in the same sentence all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get amused that Ozzies reasoning for playing Mack in center is for offense, and then Taz trots out there everyday to swing at whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinkingShip06 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Lift and Pull, Chicks dig the long ball. I feel like I am watching Carlos Lee and Jose Valentin coming up with the bases loaded. I thought that is why we got rid of those selfish players. And we replaced them with supposed grinders. agreed. that's why i personally am not opposed to moving thome in the offseason. he epitomizes that theory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 QUOTE(WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 04:50 PM) I read that Rogers article. Good to see someone giving Guillen heat. and I respect Rogers for having the balls to write that article. Is the pressure going to make Ozzie throw up and lose sleep again this year? Maybe he will keep his promise a year later and leave the team after winning the World Series. QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 04:50 PM) Uribe has definitely played himself out of Chicago.

I know, but with Bradley he appeared more comfortable than facing Chavez or Swisher, for example. Obviously, both of those players are better than Bradley; but this shouldn't be on the mind of a pitcher. He needs confidence to throw his pitches against anyone.

We have the same hitting coach. Thome and AJ were spray hitters. In fact Thome was very well known for hitting homers in left center. AJ was a spray hitter before he came here.

Obviously, both of those players are better than Bradley; but this shouldn't be on the mind of a pitcher. He needs confidence to throw his pitches against anyone. There's a good example on Swisher. The biggest problem is he cannot throw all his pitches to righties because it is impossible to throw a side-arm forkball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when Hawk and Ozzie's loyal followers used to say that Ozzie would NEVER allow this type of pathetic effort to take place? This season's over...and this is just the pathetic stretch of games before we're officially eliminated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
