caulfield12 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 QUOTE (greg775 @ May 6, 2011 -> 10:08 PM) Way to blow that, White Sox. See we are playing with fire. "Most" teams that play at home, uh, use that home half of the inning to their advantage. They either scorer here and close us out or score in bottom of ninth. How could Lexi not hit a f***ing fly ball???? How??? That's one thing Uribe or Crede did well, put the ball up into the air in those situations. He hit the ball hard. It's not as easy as one would think to lift a ball into the OF against Felix when he's bearing down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ May 6, 2011 -> 11:05 PM) What is the difference in he and Daniel Hudson? Hudson hasn't been considered a bust yet, Humber was overwhelmingly considered that until this year. Pull up the Humber threads here where people were saying it wasn't a big pickup in the offseason, and that we'll see why he was picked up for practically nothing Also, we didn't draft Humber, he isn't our talent. Which let's be honest, is probably a good thing, as our minor league system would've probably ruined him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done his part so far. But the Sox aren't going with a 6-man rotation and they sure as hell aren't putting Peavy in the bullpen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Didn't realize Thornton had a .341 BAA. How is that even possible? Juan Pierre doesn't explain more than 1/3rd of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 (edited) Cubs with ONE good decision the last 2-3 years, getting that cancer off their team. Signing Castro, not so bad either. Well, Matt pitched out of it. Olivo expanded the strike zone for him with those high FB's. Edited May 7, 2011 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
