SoxFanForever Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 This has the makings of a big inning. Granderson and Tex both hit those balls hard off Jakester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyuen Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 07:42 PM) I think someone already answered this for me a few posts up. even with those few good outings his era was still over 4.6 so consider me unimpressed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OilCan Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 So I go on a sabbatical for 4 days and see nothing has really changed. Not even JR came out with the "Anyone who believes we can chase Cleveland..." Part 2 statement which I was (anxiously for whatever reason) waiting for. Well.....*sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I would say I hope Kenny gets nervous and fires Ozzie to try and save this season (and maybe his job) sometime in the near future, but who knows if he's even allowed to fire Ozzie.

Dick Allen Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Coming into yesterday's game, the Sox had the exact same record as they did when they made the trade with SF in 1997. That team finished 80-81. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Damn Swisher. And yes, Peavy wasn't that good prior to the big injury last year. He's just full of excuses, and his stay with the Sox has been an absolute disaster. It's awful to think that next year, Peavy/Rios/Dunn will make more money than some teams have for an entire payroll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you want to fire someone and be scared to death about what dirty laundry is aired in the media? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 On the bright side, at least it will be more interesting watching Stewart pitch the last month of the season than seeing Mr. Petco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 QUOTE (TitoMB @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 07:34 PM) Honestly, this disaster is going to end up being good for the franchise. Had we somehow managed to win this Comedy Central, KW and OG would be brought back. Now that it has blown up in their faces, they will surely both lose their jobs. The franchise will FINALLY be able to move forward. I wish I was reading this post in October, not now. There's still ample time for this team to linger and give all the super fans around here hope. Every embarrassing loss brings us closer to dismantling. And you know what? I don't care how long it takes. I don't care how much our payroll drops due to poor attendance, either. We need new management, new coaching; and if nothing changes atleast we'll be without the drama this team carries with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His own lack of talent actually is endangering people on the field (including himself) due to the velocity his pitches are leaving the bat.
