geez, ya think they figured buehrle out?
Comments (0)this will be a short post. i just wanted to say i don’t hate Mark Buehrle, and i don’t think he is a bad pitcher in the least. his record speaks for him. however, i don’t know if it’s the fact that he doesn’t have the speed, or if they just figured him out. Mark Buehrle never had velocity, but he is a lefty and he has good placement.
all i have to say is that i felt bad for him last night. i did not get to see the game because i was outside being stupid riding the motorcycle in 40 degree weather, but that’s beside the point. although when i got home i did hear all about the suckiness from al because he was at my parents’ house. but from what i hear i didn’t want to see the game. a salami in the first inning?? yikes. actually the only part i watched was Buehrle walking to the dugout after being taken out of the game. i really think that some people really have buehrle figured out. and it is no surprise that his worst luck is against the Cleveland Indians. they are in our division so of course we are going to face them the most.
ah, well, that’s OK Mark, i still heart you. but i don’t heart you like Jon Garland. i just think you are a great person to have in the clubhouse and to catch ceremonial first pitches. =P
thoughts for week 1
Comments (0)so, i’m intrigued by the results of baseball’s first week of the 2008 season. i mean i am obviously most interested in the white sox and what they are up to, but really i’m thinking that this is going to be a good year for baseball! first of all, i like the fact that they keep making the season longer. i love going to sox games and also the fact that they are all in HD! WOO! what i don’t like is that work has decided to be dumb and block my usage of the gameday portion of the white sox website. therefore i have watched about 3 hours total this week of white sox baseball, and the majority of that was while my boys lost to cleveland on wednesday night. so basically i haven’t known what was happening until the games were over and sportscenter was showing me the highlights of the game. ALSO, how awesome is it that detroit hasn’t won a game and they were swept by KC?
can we also talk about bad decisions made in the off season? so everyone who knows me knows how bitter i am at ken williams for trading my jon garland. not only am i super bummed because i always wanted to me mrs. garland…BUT i think he is a really good pitcher. his first game of the season exemplified his talents perfectly. i also don’t think it was a very fair trade. i mean a solid, consistent pitcher for a shortstop? infielders we are not short on, it’s good, solid pitching that can take us through the season. i mean i don’t want to be out of the race before we even start! i know it’s way too early to tell anything, but geez.
