farmio Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 I just found this site yesterday and am thrilled to see people talking sox baseball instead of smack. Anyway this may have been covered already but, pitching and defence (mostly pitching) has been winning games for the sox! Just think if or when the offence clicks they should leave the rest of the division in their dust. I know we still have plays like Jose throwing the ball away last night but that is going to happen. As long as the pitching can get over it they will be in good shape. Go Sox, farmio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 1st of all, welcome to the Boards! Anyways, yes, pitching has been winning games for this team lately. The defense not so much. And when the hitting comes along, watch out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 Welcome aboard. It's not when the offense comes around, it's if, IMO. However, i think we can win with an average offense as long as we have some timely hitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonkeyKongerko Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 I would say this team definitely has the most consistent rotation in the AL Central. Whether that will win us this division or not remains to be seen. It should go a long way though. And how about the job Don Cooper has done. Seriously this guy took over a group of young starters who were failing to find consistency every year except Buehrle. I have to say he has done some number with Jon Garland and I think Danny late 2002 and times this year has shown improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Sox, farmio This was basically posted on May 1st, May 15th, June 1st, June 10, etc. Just when you think they figured out how to score they go back into the s***ter. IMHO when the offense finally comes around the pitching is going into the toilet. Then the big finish with a month left that leaves us just short. After 30+ years as a Sox fan, been there, seen that.

Texsox- I here ya I have been a fan or 25 years and they always find a way to break your heart. But we have to keep the faith, maybe they make a move and bring in a bat. Or pauly starts to hit (although it will take more than just him) and the O takes off. I do think it is timely hitting that is the most important and we haven't seen it much. Like Hawk always says, don't tell me what you hit, tell me when you hit it. Go Sox- farmio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
