Jake Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ May 7, 2012 -> 01:12 PM) Yep, I like Humber, but he's been really bad outside of the perfect game. He's pitched well with RISP in most games...if not, his ERA could be in Danks territory. At least two of these games in non-ideal weather...have to wonder if the Texas kid just doesn't like bad weather. The last cold weather game looked a lot like a guy pitching with cold hands, as he couldn't get his curve over. The curve is the worst to throw when you can't feel your fingers just right.

caulfield12 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 QUOTE (Jake @ May 7, 2012 -> 01:00 PM) This is looking pretty s***ty right now. I feel bad for Phil. At least he has the joy of a new baby. There's that. And you can't ever take the perfect game away from him. On the negative side, we're in danger of a disastrous 3-10 streak and only 2-9 more from equaling the horrendous stretch last year that completely knocked us out of the race at about the same time of the season.

He's pitched well with RISP in most games...if not, his ERA could be in Danks territory. It's already nearing Danks territory now. 4.62 coming in...and now 3 runs allowed in two innings. Gotta be pushing 5.50 or something. Don't have the up to the minute stats in front of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes up to .393 and 1.349 if you count "Any runners on base". Methinks he's having trouble from the stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) So much for the hot April Fukudome. It's now May, and there's no reason to be constantly benching Viciedo when McAllister is actually much more effective against LHP. Nice to know Ozzie's trend of not benching Rios is being continued by Ventura. 5th double of the year for Gordon Beckham. White Sox 10th in the AL in runs scored, still first in strikeouts. And in another positive sign for Gordon, it was on a fastball. Edited May 7, 2012 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 If Gordon is going to take the outside fastball the other way with authority, there may still be hope. This is what I haven't seen from him, this is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffro2525 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 We get a "get up! Stretch!" from Paulie's foul ball in the first, but nothing for Becks hitting it off the top of the wall lol... DeAza 2-2 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When no one is on base, coming in to today, Batters are only hitting .181 against Humber with a .279 OBP. Those numbers obviously improve significantly if you add in 27 additional outs.
