flavum Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) Last year, this game would have been over 30 minutes ago. They'd be heading to dinner without feeling bad about it. So we got that going for us... Edited April 4, 2014 by flavum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Is it just me or are these a few minutes longer on average? Dan Hayes @DanHayesCSN 1m Average time on #WhiteSox games going into today was 3 hours, 32 minutes. This one is at 3:29 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Really bad start by Johnson is basically what screwed us. Hopefully Danks has a better one tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pettie4sox Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Still a fun team to watch. You can't give up 7 runs and expect your team to win. That's on Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ginger Kid Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 they hung in there and brought the tying run to the plate. Great game by Eaton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Johnson was awful. He'll do better. Danks should do well tomorrow. KC doesn't swing the bat really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 4, 2014 -> 09:23 PM) Welcome to the rebuild. It was unrealistic to expect to hit on all three of Garcia, Eaton and Davidson, but at least 2/3 making it....that's pretty much critical. Obviously, the season's still young...at some point they're going to have to ditch Dunn in order to give Viciedo more regular at-bats than playing roughly 1/4th of the time. I don't know if it's realistic to expect a competent offense in 2015 by simply plugging in one of DeAza/Eaton/Garcia/Viciedo into the DH spot. On the plus side, though, we are getting more and more athletic with additions of Semien, Eaton and Leury Garcia. Still, we're dealing with a somewhat unexpected downside...the benefit of shifting DeAza to LF and putting Eaton is CF has been offset negatively by Avisail's shoddy/plodding defense in RF so far. We're much younger with Garcia in RF than Rios, but we're losing stolen bases, power (so far) and defensive ability. Garcia has the stronger arm, sure, but his fundamentals have been so poor that it's about as helpful as Jermaine Dye possessing a strong arm but always throwing flat-footed or falling backwards. Say what you want about Viciedo, but he always gets his forward momentum behind the ball when he's making a throw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I wonder if Garcia will improve as a defender. He appears to have no instincts as far as chasing the ball. I'm not giving up on him by any means, but he looks uncomfortable in the outfield. If he catches that little looper in right field then three runs don't score. I'm shocked the Royals were playing so shallow on that catch by Cain that ended that one inning. With Abreu's power you'd think the outfield would have been deeper. Had that little pop to center fallen the game might have been more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally thou, there's not a single game that sticks out in my mind last year where his play in the field was this poor. Going strictly on "an eye test" - he's gotta get better. Edit: Metrically speaking, he's f***ed. Edited April 5, 2014 by hi8is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
