Ha seriously. He is harping on it instead of harping on how terrible John has been.

 

 

I disagree. Slowey has nothing.

 

And our hitters are mental when times are tough

Got to love Hawk acting like that error by Q prevented Danks from getting any of the guys who followed him.

 

Hawk likes to blame anything but the actual players involved. Its the umpires, a random bad play, hell a pigeon fart. Anything but the play. Did the error put more stress on the pitcher. Sure. However giving up all those runs with 2 outs is on him. He pissed down his leg.

Danks had nothing. He was going to hit with or without Q screwing up.

 

He sure had nothing while retiring 5 of the first 6 hitters, including one that should have been an out.

Can't remember a more disappointing inning than that in a long time. Offense has to keep it going.

 

Whatever. The Twins have a terrible starter on the mound and a brutal bullpen lately. I just hate the way the Sox infused a reeling team with momentum the way they just did.

Danks has got to pick up the pieces better than that, though. That was a horrible display of lack of focus.

What did Q do? Gameday says nothing about an error or a ball hit to him.

 

He couldn't get to a pretty routine fly ball, Rios had to cover for him and dropped the ball because he was afraid of running into Quentin.

So the following batters where he preceded to give up six runs are meaningless in this discussion, right? How about the counts where he had two strikes on a guy and couldn't put him away?

This kind of bulls*** blind homerism is why Hawk isn't appreciated outside of Chicago. Call the game like it's being played, Hawk. Not the way you wish it was.

Well said. He's an embarrassment to the profession.

I think you need to look at the before and then the after. In the before, he sure looked like he had some decent stuff. Then after the error, it wasn't the same. He was obviously rattled. I'm not trying to say that Danks had no fault, but the error had a huge part in why that inning transpired.
