What's happening with Jo-Han?

He's definitely not the same as he has been the last few years, I don't think his location has been that great... he has been leaving alot of pitches up in the strike zone and he seems to get rattled much easier than last year.... kinda like Lohse.

jim are u trolling like windy?? lol only in illiNOISE... Johan isnt as sharp as he has been but i will still take him over freddie garcia or anyone else on the whitesox staff even Buhrle. Everyone knows Johan is a 2nd 1/2 pitcher has always been that way.. look for the win total to go up and the era to go down... and as windy would qoute a totally overrated broadcaster,, YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOARD,,,YES!

Man, I really can't stand Hawk...........getting really old.

You know what I really hate............ "Stretch....stretch........" Wow that's bad. Like Harry....."Long drive, deep drive....caught by Ryne Sanderson at second base".......

Just bad TV.

Hawk and DJ must go!!!!!

What I heard is that the pitching coach changed some things in his mechanics. They did this so he would not tip off his change-up. I don't think it's working too well. The other thing is, maybe the scouting reports have caught up with him, and batters have a better idea of what to do when they face Santana. I still think he is an above average pitcher, and feel confident they will win when he takes the mound. More so than Radke anyways.

If you compare his numbers with last year they are about the same. I have confidence that it is going to be just like last year. We were down by 7 at the all-star break and came back and won the division by 9 games. A sixteen game swing after the all-star break. I know that they are different teams now, but it is going to happen.

Anyone put any stock into Redman calling a bad game yesterday? I don't know, maybe yo-han is having trouble pitching from the stretch. He seems to be doing well then all of a sudden a 2 out rally. Its either mental or mechanical because his arm still seems lively.

I personally think he's going through his dead-arm phase a little later this year. He'll be back.

Also, you've gotta realize that he would be 10-5 this year if Gardy wouldn't leave him out there all night long. I understand that he's your best arm and in many situations you let him work out of jams, but why not go to the pen in the bottom of the seventh with one out and runners on the corners. You've got a guy in the pen who has been lights out all year; you've gotta use him. The exact same thing happened a couple weeks ago in Milwaukee. The recipe that has won us three straight titles is: starter goes six, then two releivers and a closer. We still typically do that with anybody else but Jo. I think Gardy counts on his starts as bullpen rest days.

Yes, compared to last year he's WAY off.

Through 18 starts this season, Santana is 7-5 with a 3.98 ERA, 26 walks and 143 strikeouts.

Through 18 starts last season, Santana was 7-5 with a 3.89 ERA, 29 walks and 125 strikeouts.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
