fathom Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Wish Sox would listen to the scouting report I had of Wuertz for the last 5 years. He'll throw a 3-2 slider about 95% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Thornton for the bottom of the 8th apparently. Ah, yes. The start of the fall... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 QUOTE (Cali @ May 14, 2011 -> 04:58 AM) I'm with you on the pessimism this year but I laughed that you didn't show up until s*** started going wrong... Sorry, on my own with the baby tonight who finally went to sleep. I can be accused of a lot of things, but only showing up when the going gets tough shouldn't be one of them.

caulfield12 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 (edited) I call this potential loss on Fathom for jinxing us. LOL. Nothing to do with playing in Oakland or Thornton coming in at some point. You just have to watch to see what will happen next this year. Just when you start having faith in the team again, and think you can pick up ground on the Indians again, we flip from 8 GB to possibly 10 GB.

I know he was out when we faced them the first time. Edited May 14, 2011 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 For the record, Crisp has base hits the last two times opposing managers tried to flip him from LH to RH with lefty relievers. Wonder if Ozzie's aware. According to his tweet, he doesn't read scouting reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 (edited) What NEW Thornton? 19 hits in 12 IP? Jesus. Yep, 93/94 instead of 96-97. I'm guessing this is indirectly related to him being overused that inning he threw almost 40 pitches. Edited May 14, 2011 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
