twincitysox Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 02:25 PM) Quintana's absolutely nasty today. It's a shame Flowers and the defense cost him a shot at going deep in this game. Yes, very much this ^^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 02:25 PM) INCLUDING LAST SEASON...whenever you think they MIGHT be able to get on an extended winning streak, everything just falls apart. This season simply has nothing to do with last. I dont expect a bunt in the first inning because Ozzie did it a lot in 2005. Didnt the Ventura led white sox go on a few extended winning streaks in 2012? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 01:25 PM) Obviously he is referring to years past, but he is also forgetting it's the 4th inning and we are only down by 2. I'm not sure why anyone is throwing in the towel on this game. The Twins aren't good. Yeah, I know, Hughes sucks, I get it. It's just that "here we go again feeling" that sucks. I'm sure if it's not the fielding or fundamentals, it will be the bullpen or something else. Maybe it's better not to believe they might actually be able to compete for anything and just accept it for what it is, which is likely a maddeningly inconsistent/unpredictable team which shows flashes/glimpses but also can drive you crazy. Sweeping the Twins wouldn't mean THAT much anyway, most are predicting them to be even worse than us this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or 75% of White Sox fans. Yes, the talent has changed, quite a bit. But that kind of inning has been going on since the last two weeks of 2012...seemingly on an endless loop.

When you can't field or hit, you're not going to win a lot. No disagreement here. And again, it has nothing to do with the team the Sox are fielding.

Generally, when someone strikes out but reaches, then escapes a rundown and winds up on second, most people think he is destined to score. He cheated outs twice. It generally means trouble.
