Real Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 QUOTE (TitoMB @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 03:56 PM) 1-2-3. Put down without even a whimper, for our 3-4-5. Sad. why even bother when AJ will just call for more fastballs against their hitters, the only pitch they can hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 02:55 PM) Great to hear Hawk blasting the decision making this road trip. Rios 0-4 in all three games. Assume you mean since arriving in KC. Well...for whatever reason, we were flat the entire series. Weird the Sox have become one of those teams that has to be pushed to rise to the occasion against the better teams in the league, although we seemed to do just fine with the Twins and Blue Jays for most of this year...at least until this point. Just a weird, weird season. We could easily be 14-16-18 games over .500 and running away with the division, but that would go against the laws of baseball sanity apparently.

It's on the players and coaching staff...and you can't blame our fans all season long for not knowing what to make of this team. It's a head scratcher.

Not too many teams can say that come mid August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxfest Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 QUOTE (southsidepride15 @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 03:51 PM) Yeah I know it was over like 3 innings ago when we had 9 outs left, because "we were gonna get no hit" and were the worst team in the history of the game, etc. You f***ing been watching any of the last 3 games.

greg775 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 The White Sox should be ashamed of themselves. You cannot just write this off. Contenders beat pretenders. My god, to lose all 3??? Really? After losing 2 of 3 to them in the Cell? Where's the pride? If Betancourt had been released earlier, KC would have swept us in that last series in Kauffman as well. Congrats White Sox. What a joke. Too bad it wasn't a four-game series and we coulda lost to Hochevar too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 04:51 PM) Any update on when ADA will return? Announcers suggested he and Youk could be in the lineup tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Sox still easily control their own destiny. If they go into a big slump and/or decide they want to get dominated by KC and the Tigers to end the season, then they won't deserve to make the postseason. The Sox need to get healthy with ADA and Youk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsidepride15 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 04:00 PM) You f***ing been watching any of the last 3 games. Yes and I still believe that the game is played for 9 innings, not six. Have you watched this team all year? Just when you start to think they suck it comes back together. I have seen wilder things than scoring 3 in the ninth to tie a game. The way we were swinging today I realize it was a long shot in the 9th, but I will never understand these "ova" comments in the 5th and 6th innings.

greg775 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2012 -> 09:32 PM) BTW, can we delete that relief pitching thread? I've never been confident in the likes of Crain, Thornton, Myers. I know they've been OK by today's relief standards but I never have understood threads like that one. Our bullpen has been OK to blah since Joe Morgan's statement a few seasons ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Judging the reaction to this three game fiasco with he KC Bombers makes me think that baseball as we know it has come to an end.

Yet the O's do us a huge favor by sweeping the p**** cats. We could have been in 2nd place right now, but instead the Sox are still in the driver's seat.
