caulfield12 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 12, 2014 -> 11:04 PM) Then move Dunn to this spacious OF? Yikes. EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot Sierra still exists. Semdog would have been nice. Absolutely. Sierra already was used as a pinch-runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job Robin There's just no way you don't have Semien hitting there over Garcia. If you don't have any confidence in him, then send him to Charlotte. Period.

SoxAce Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Nieto was better off hitting for himself. (C'mon Robin, your acting like this team is competing this year.. ) I will agree with Hawk though. Last year down 4 runs, we would've mailed it in. These guys are stubborn.. in a good way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 12, 2014 -> 11:06 PM) Do not get Garcia hitting either. Obviously, he had plenty of time to think about it. He had already used Sierra, Konerko and Flowers. Just idiotic. I don't care if Dunn was going to be in the OF, if you've followed the White Sox for 40 games this year, Semien was the much better bet to come through.

If Robin can manage in the big leagues without spending a day coaching in the minors, I guess it's not surprising Garcia is on the Sox major league roster.

If you don't have any confidence in him, then send him to Charlotte. Period. He should've been in Charlotte as soon as Beckham (and Gillaspie to an extent) came off the DL. I don't like him at 3B either. Hopefully we see the Semien-Johnson combo at AAA. Let them both grow together and learn each others tendencies in the infield down there.

Seems like If it is a 4 game series Sox win 1 and a 3 game series they get swept at Oakland. I always call it house of horrors for Sox. Sox have also lost in the most weird ways at Oakland.

Maybe he knew he wasn't going to pinch-hit Sierra, but Sierra's actually been the hotter hitter than either Garcia or Semien the last 7-10 days. You can avoid (or try to avoid) the double play ball with Viciedo at the plate, but that wasn't even the tying run yet, Alexei Ramirez was.
