0-2 pitch and he gives up a single. Wow. Thornton is horrible.

If Thornton blows this, it's fully on Coop and Ventura. Where's Addison?

Crawford kills Thornton. Why does Ventura think the result will be different? I would have had no problem with Thornton coming in to face Gonzales who had never gotten a hit off him. Thornton ruined last season. Why give him an opportunity to do it this year? He can't close. HE CAN'T FUCKING CLOSE!!!!!!! How many fucking times are you going to ask him to do something he can't do?

Terrible loss. This one is squarely on Coop and/or Robin. Inning should have started with either Reed or Quintana.

Can't wait to hear people defend Thornton again tonight.

Fucking horrible.

Damn it all to hell. Damn it all to mother fucking hell.

When the division is lost by a couple games we can look back to this one and the two seasons ruined by Matt Thornton. It's fucking horrible. Matt Thornton is a season-ruiner. When he is allowed to continuously ruin seasons, the people who are allowing it should be held accountable. Now go cry about how Sox fans don't come out to the fucking park.

And if Addison Reed is incapable of facing lefties, we need to find another closer. Closers have to get guys out on both sides of the plate.

This one hurts, one of the worst losses of the season so far. Sox take 2 of 3 in Detroit.

No, that's on the north side where the mighty first round pick of The Great Theo Epstein isn't ready to hit the vaunted pitchers of low A ball. Throw him another few million.

Thornton needs to go the fuck away. DFA this motherfucker now Robin. He is a fucking waste of space and has nothing left. This loss ultimately is on Robin's fucking shoulders and Coop as well.
The Sox offense didn't exactly do much either, but the game was theirs to win.

3 times Quintana has pitched 8 inning and given up 0 runs and not gotten a decision.

Guess he just wasn't good enough since he didn't get the W.

He didn't get the L either, did he?

Wins matter. Nothing else.

Quintana only threw 103 pitches. They should have run him back out in the 9th to at least face Crawford.

Ouch. I feel for you Sox fans...

Once Thornton came in to face Crawford, it was very predictable. They almost lucked out of it except Minor League Eddie made a bad throw.

Nobody's gonna nickname him "Losing Pitcher".

Matt Thornton has been great this season and any team will snap him up. He's only allowed a run in 11 appearances!

Which Score genius offered this up last night?

Thornton is fucking 2-6 Rongey you fucking dope. I hope this does not cause the Sox to go into a tailspin but this loss really hurts. Again the offense didn't do much, but the game was to be had. How many fucking times are you going to let Cody Ross beat you? This guy had himself a series, without as much as a brush-back pitch thrown at him.

This is beginning to feel like, to me, in 2006 when the White Sox kept running out an obviously broken down and shit balled Cliff Polite....

Well, he's probably right that other teams would want him. That speaks more to the lack of quality relievers than it does about him. When cooler heads prevail, we intelligent Sox fans will realize that every other team has pieces of shit like him and maybe he isn't even so bad. But right now, FUCK MATT THORNTON!!!!!!!!

JORR, Thornton hasn't had it for at least 2 years. He needs to be a piece of a trade for another arm or pinch-hitter. Anyone who defends Thornton is just not being truthful.

They must really think Viciedo sucks then. Love the vitriol tonite , reminds me of someone.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Obviously, I'm not defending him. Just pointing out that every bullpen is going to have guys like him. Or worse. We're just not noticing when Phil Coke blows a game in painful fashion.
