fathom Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Thome has fouled off so many mediocre fastballs the last month or so. Hopefully his bat speed picks up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ May 8, 2008 -> 07:17 PM) at least Jim is seeing some pitches Who cares about that today. Slowey's only going to go 5 innings or so, and the Twins bullpen is completely rested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan562004 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 i'm watching this on the computer, but all the pitches to PK look like they're right in the middle of the plate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 How in the world are they missing these pitches? Anytime Ozzie wants to shake up the 3/4/5, that would be fine with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Nice job middle of the order. Slowely is not exactly K city with that 88 mph fastball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 The only way we can win, is if Danks shuts them out. Our pitching cannot give up runs at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JorgeFabregas Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 (edited) Danks might already be the Sox' best pitcher. Edit: Well, second-best. Behind Javy. Edited May 8, 2008 by JorgeFabregas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danks and Floyd are pitching equally as well. The rest, okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think that's what causes some of the routs like we saw last night. MB probably doesn't get lit up if he didn't feel like he had to be perfect. Maybe I'm wrong, but at some point it has to start wearing on the pitchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could just imagine what Ozzie told Buehrle after that. "Don't worry Mark, we'll change the line-up tomorrow so the leadoff hitter has a .310 average (OPS, of course)".
