Their offense is pretty good is the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) Well, this is a familiar scenario against the Tigers this year. Crooked numbers put up vs. our pitchers when they've been cruising along. At least Scherzer is already over 100 pitches at this point...but it's not like their bullpen is garbage.

danman31 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Those at-bats by Johnson and Hudson could prove big in this game. They took a lot of pitches with 2 outs. Against a guy like Scherzer it's hard to ask for much more from the bottom of the order. They probably bring him out for the 6th, but likely with a short leash and that would likely be his last inning. Gives the Sox a chance to get some runs.

caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 There might not be a BETTER 1-2-3 in the majors for the playoffs than Scherzer, Verlander and Fister. Everyone should be afraid to face them, should they actually make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Apparently we're back to Liriano starting against the Twins... Even if we are tied, you'd almost rather go with Santiago at this point against Minnesota, rather than Liriano. Except Francisco has the advantge of knowing all the weaknesses of his former teammates. But they know all of his trends and tendencies as well, and this would be the 2nd time he's faced them.

caulfield12 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 The main difference in this game is the fact that 1) the Tigers have the best hitter in the AL who's super clutch, and their hitting with RISP and especially with 2 outs. Whereas all season long, especially in the 2nd half of the season, we've given up a disproportionate number of runs with two outs. I wouldn't be surprised if we led the AL in that category since the All-Star break. It has been uncanny. Hasn't mattered if it was a starter or reliever.

Harry Chappas Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 If Liriano was the answer last night, why is he not the answer tonight? Santiago is pitching well and it has worked out but the theory behind it makes no sense unless they were just pushing Liriano back and threw him yesterday to get him work which makes no sense either. Anyway the pitching has not been the issue the hitting is abysmal and getting Hudson in there over Beckham is not helping matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
