I thought...

Ozzie was gonna start playing other people at short?

Greetings from the other side...

Hey guys...um, what's up with White Sox pitching?

by B Cap on Jul 22, 2007 1:42 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs

the starters

have been good enough, we have the worst bullpen in the league, plus ozzie seems okay with using all the starters until they drop.

I had noticed that. 8th inning? I guess Ozzie just gave up. Well, I shouldn't gloat just yet. Wakefield, while a sentimental favorite in Boston, seems to have two settings: Unhittable and "I can't watch". Not sure which one we ordered up today.

by B Cap on Jul 22, 2007 1:45 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs

lowest

BA in the AL, plus our sunday lineup

unhittable.

Sure

<snark>What's his on-base percentage? We need offence. </snark>

Actually, this series has been an anomally. Normally we leave, like, 11 guys a game stranded on base and lose by 1.

no you win, we insist

especially our bullpen. and non-Vazquez starters. and hitters. everyone, really.

VERY, VERY SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS.

Consulting with Ed Farmer.

the sadder part is

whitesox.com says the team has a 'hitting coach'

If nothing else

At least watching 2 knuckleball pitchers go at it is interesting. Can't recall ever seeing 2 in at the same time

If not for the two 3 run homers,

it would be a 1 run game.

Why not a controlled swing all the time,

instead of the wild ass swing for the fences.

Not bad at all....

With the Sox 2nd half schedule and hopefully the trade of Dye and Garland I think the Sox could cruis to the number one pick. Pull the trigger KW!

by hitlesswonder on Jul 22, 2007 3:49 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs

In less than 2 years

From champions to basement - fastest way to replenish the farm system. If only we could evaluate and train talent.

by ckimcircles on Jul 22, 2007 4:37 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs

Oh, you're so right Hawk

Just when you think they've hit bottom they plummet even further.

This definitely is up their as the worst season ever for a fan - although '84 was really bad too.

Greg Walker, funny guy

I like how they sort of act like Greg had anything to do with our hitters going elsewhere and becoming better. Maybe he should worry about helping our hitters get better.
