Floyd needs to step up tonight though A lot better match up, Richard will go vs Sowers who's ERA is in the 12s, Gavin needs to step it up and I hope he will (for the sake of my fantasy team too). Bats need to wake the hell up, what's the temperature like in Cleveland? /pinch of green With that said, I simply cannot wait for the game to start, even after poor performance last night, Go Sox.

kane0730 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Awesome. Going against another pitcher with a high ERA. I've seen this story early and often, and it doesn't have a happy ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustWin Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Please sweep the Indians!! Gavin's era is ugly. It's time for him to step up and give us 7+ good innings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Lillibridge is batting 2nd again. Simply put, that's the dumbest managerial decision I've ever seen. You don't put an automatic out in front of your best hitter. By no fault of his own, Lillibridge is my most unlikeable Sox player since Jaime Navarro.

fathom Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Not only that, but what kind of message is it sending to the team where Nix comes in, gives the team good at-bats and great fielding, and then gets benched for 3 straight games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 (edited) Think about all of the BS that was bantered about from Ozzie and company on how OBP and not a guys 40 speed were the deciding factor for top of the order guys. Yet again, we are going to give one of our worst hitters the most ABs in the game in front of our RBI guys. Maybe Ozzie needs to look in the mirror when he makes these lineups and wonder why we are one of the worst run producers in the AL. Lillibridge needs some ABs in the minors so he can shake this, I am a big homer guy thing he has going right now. Hit in on the ground and run like hell should be his motto.

You know Alexei wasn't gonna be benched for more than two games. It was suppose to be his wake up call, time will tell if it was. Ozzie keeps on saying how Alexei is our starting SS, and there is nothing Nix can do, to change his stubborn mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why cruel? Alexei's lucky he has a patient manager. Alexei should be very, very worried that he's struggling and the best Sox prospect in a decade is a SS.

Alexei should be very, very worried that he's struggling and the best Sox prospect in a decade is a SS. Half joking. The cruel part would be moving him to a new position while looking as lost as a player could look. Nix not playing shows the mentality that Guillen has towards certain players. What that mentality is I do not know but Anderson, Betemit and Nix are in that camp for whatever reason. You would think the grindiness of Nix would have him playing somewhere. Nix has shown to be a very capable shortstop and have some ability to do what they need out of the number two slot. Yet after being shut down all weekend there is, the flailing wonder again. I would like to see what Nix could do as there is some talent there. It is not the Andy Gonzalez situation of 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That you shouldn't do anything like what Brian Anderson does. That includes catching the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Is anyone a bit worried about how bad fields looks most of the time? I'm hoping its just a slump, but he hasn't exactly lit the world on fire since his hot start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
