Flash Tizzle Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 How is Alexi supposed to hit a slider in the left hand hitters box? That's minor league impatience right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 6, 2009 -> 12:58 AM) for one pitch an at bat True, but no matter how bad he was doing, I guaranteed you'd at least think he'd hit the ball hard. The really depressing thing right now is that outside of Konerko, no one is hitting the ball hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) The twilight zone is upon us... Who would have thought that on June 5th that Carl Pavano would have the EXACT (5.05) ERA as Danks and a better record? That 10-3 stretch really tricked us, and we still COULD be only 2 1/2 games back after the end of games tonight...but I don't think even the 2006 Cardinals' team LOOKED so bad because at least they had Pujols (for those making the "just get in" argument). Even without Hawk's "man love" Sizemore in the line-up, this Indians' offense is very dangerous...kind of like the White Sox used to be about 3 years ago. Angels and Tigers go into the 9th with goose eggs in the run column. Great duel, Verlander and Santana. With Zach sliding, Verlander might now be the best pitcher in the ALCD.

fathom Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) Danks is up in the zone with everything. He's significantly more lost than Floyd was at any point this season. Edited June 6, 2009 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's significantly more lost than Floyd is. by far. but again, he's really young and really talented. I have no doubts he'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjm676 Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 There is no way we come back. That HR took whatever momentum we had. The series doesn't look good either. There's so guy named David Huff pitching on Sunday. So looks for the same repeat performance. BTW, we have not scored a run in the past 20 innings and only scored 1 in the past 23.

caulfield12 Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 What happened? Well, one thing is for certain. Danks is throwing way too much pitches and he's lacking that strikeout pitch at this point in the season. Seems he's getting a lot more contact this year and his FB isn't quite as lively as in 2008.
