witesoxfan Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Having seen a few of his ABs, Freddie Freeman reminds me a lot of Ryan Klesko at the plate. Just a mammoth upper body, good eye at the plate, great power, and uglier than sin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 21, 2011 -> 04:39 PM) Clayton Kershaw is a stud. Feels like we're watching the makings of a HOF career. It's like we hear this a couple of times a year now. This is nothing against Kershaw, as he just may do that, but it seems like two or three players get talked about each year as though they're the next big thing. They sign big deals and sort of lose their luster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSqwert Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I see that 1st ballot HOFer Dan Hudson had another tough luck loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I don't think anyone had Hudson headed to the Hall of Fame, or even the top of anyone's rotation. I think some people think it was a stupid trade for the long run, and it certainly can turn out ot be a bad trade if the Sox don't make the playoffs with Edwin Jackson in their rotation, while Hudson could be a productive starter for fairly cheap over the next five years.

He could be, but he didn't show that he was capable of that with the white sox and he certainly hasn't looked capable of being a productive starter so far this year.

witesoxfan Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) Jose Bautista has reached base 10 straight times. Single in the 8th on Wednesday, 3 hits and 2 walks yesterday, and 3 hits and 1 walk today. Of course, he's only stayed on base 7 of those times. The other 3 he got to trot around real slow. He's like really, really f***ing good Edited April 23, 2011 by witesoxfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) First time watching Mattingly manage. Maybe it's not a good idea Don to let your set-up man try to go 2 innings and eventually give up 5 ER. Dodgers fans apparently can't stand him.

iamshack Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 (edited) It appears that Daisuke Matsuzaka has figured some s*** out in the past week or so...has a 15 inning scoreless streak going. Additionally, they really have to do something about the situation where a closer blows the save, then his team retakes the lead and he becomes the pitcher of record and picks up the win. He should be automatically disqualified from picking up the win if he blew the game in the first place. Edited April 24, 2011 by iamshack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In regards to the first, I'm pretty sure that's his thing. He'll have stretches of being great, and then he'll have a bunch of games where he only pitches 5 innings and gives up 5 runs.

Balta1701 Posted April 24, 2011 Author Share Posted April 24, 2011 Man, the Braves and Giants are just trading huge hits for the last inning or 2. 3 run bomb by Heyward, 2 RBI double by Rowand gives the Giants the lead back, now Uggla kills a ball to tie it.

fathom Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 How about Josh Johnson? I believe that's 4 starts this year that he's had a no-hitter into the 6th. Also, Stanton's 8th inning homer is an absolute blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
