justBLAZE Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 I can't f***ing believe how some of you find the time of day to come here and just rant the whole time. Go score some p**** or have a beer, RELAX. Yes this team probably won't win the division but what's the point of coming here and ragging and b**** about everyone on this team. How do you call yourself a fan? Oh look we're down by 2, yes I'm pissed at Bobby, was throwing batting practice, but come on why do inflict pain on yourself by watching these games?

Balta1701 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ May 9, 2010 -> 05:21 PM) With their performance this season....yes, I don't know how it can be worse. The Cards 2b/ss combo sucks, but at least they play good D. So...let me get this right...you think our 2b/SS combo is the worst in baseball history after 1.5 months...but yet you can immediately come up with another combo that is nearly as bad. In other words, you think 2 of the worst combos in baseball history are happening right now. Out of 110 years of baseball...2b/ss combos this bad have never ever been seen. You see why I'm ridiculing that a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TitoMB345 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 I was all excited too, that I got to get home from breakfast to watch the 9th. By the time I turned the TV on, there were 2 on. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ May 9, 2010 -> 04:23 PM) Why, today's action wasn't the worst thing to happen. We obviously need a bad outing by Jenks to get him removed from the closer spot. If the season is a waste anyways, the sooner we can start developing a new closer, the better. This didn't need to take place in order for management to figure that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jphat007 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Well, if we weren't 7 games out from a signficantly better Twins team I'd be pretty pissed right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSoxfan1986 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Jenks is finished. He's done. I don't want to see him in another close game. The writing's been on the wall for awhile now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah...but losing a winnable game thanks to the closer, losing 3/4 at home, going 3-4 against the Royals and the Jays at home...and then having to go to Minnesota...The GM isn't going to put up with this.

He shouldn't have put up with Jenks to start the season. Jenks should have been dealt in the off-season. There are plenty of teams looking for a closer. Sign another left handed reliever so you can make Thornton the closer. Hell, you have Santos waiting to be one right now. Kenny's inability to deal a crappy closer who has been regressing since 2007 is killing this team. Just how many times has Jenks blown a lead or given the other team the lead?
