Soxfest Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 22, 2013 -> 09:43 PM) Not after the 7th inning. They had the lead I never said 7th inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 23, 2013 -> 03:42 AM) Paint by numbers managing. I want back the manager (Ventura) that was anything but that for the first 4 months or so of last season. Austin Powers needs to use a time machine to go back and find Ventura's managerial mojo.

greg775 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 23, 2013 -> 02:44 AM) He's making $5.5 million to be the "non-closer" still. Do you really think it's going to matter to fine him $1000? It will just make the attitude in the clubhouse even worse at this point. They need someone like Kirk Gibson or Bo Porter and to add a lot more youth into that line-up. Thornton/Crain/Lindstrom will have value somewhere else, maybe you can just dump Thornton's salary or eat part of it and just start over with the back end of the bullpen. I just find it amazing he chucked that pickoff attempt into center field and promptly (after one strike out) gave up a base hit to likely end the game.

I said it earlier today, but don't expect much in return for Thornton. If anything, you try to save a million or so by dealing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Of course, we couldn't have used Jones or Lindstrom or Reed against Cabrera, lol. Hasn't Ventura watched enough White Sox baseball since 2006 to know that Thornton was going to cave in that situation....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin Powers needs to use a time machine to go back and find Ventura's managerial mojo. He turned into a guy who played the pitching matchups batter by batter way too early in games. It's seems he's stopped doing that of late, thank God, but I haven't been paying that close of attention. Now that Coop is healthy, I hope he makes all the pitching decisions. Maybe he does.
