QUOTE (Real @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 04:27 AM) This team is seriously incapable of winning OR losing a game to the twins in normal fashion, i.e. 5-4 no errors, no miscues on defense or the other 20-something things that happened the last two nights They are without morneau and still have no problem scoring runs off of our staff I'll take 1-1 after our history in the twinkiedome where we stood no chance compared to the new park. The key is splitting this series. Losing 3 of 4 would be bad; winning 3 of 4 would be incredible. A split would be fine.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 03:18 AM) Gordon, how do you not score? Testing testing. We lose. Bummer.

I woulda swing at that 2-0 pitch, but that's just me. Can we hit a gapper somehow?

With all due respect, Kotsay stinks. In all seriousness, how do I do the quote function correctly? I can't make it work.

You know Minnie will be in the race all year. Minnie always is in the race and prolly always will be. All losses hurt, William Tell.

I'm not giving up on this game, but a split in this series would be good.

I'm not crazy about Kotsay. Some people on here have had a major love affair with Jones all season.

Who are you? My dad? Ask politely.

Who did you want to bat? Just curious.

If people believe this every time they write it on game threads, that's just sad.

I love myself as well as JC, Ozzie, Bobby, CQ, heck the entire White Sox team, even Kotsay and Jones, the Blackhawks and even the Bears and all good looking women. GO SOX!! Double digit win streak, please!

Is this a joke? I'm still wondering if the post the other day was a joke in saying if not for a few horrible offensive performances the team could have been 28-2 instead of 25-5. I'm assuming both are jokes.

I love how there's still criticism of the lineup when we have had recent 11 and 9 game win streaks. I just find it funny, that's all. I wonder how many games in the streak guys who have been criticized for either playing or batting too high actually contributed big time to yet another of the wins.

I thought people wanted me to be more negative. I get ripped for praising CQ and Bobby and Ozzie a lot. I said I like Peavy's attitude and wish him well. I also just said what ptatc wrote "doesn't sound good." And it doesn't. This injury sounds pretty s***ty to me and it's pretty easy to make the jump to the fact it's wasted money. I also said I don't care about that because the Sox and all teams deserve what they get in paying wasted contracts when pitchers go down. These contracts are ridiculous considering the nature of the arm/sthoulder in this day and age of pampering pitchers.

Funny but I've been reading all the threads on here and didn't see one mention of Ozzie making great moves last night. The Trib pointed out several.

Ptatc's evaluation doesn't sound good. As it turned out, Jake was a complete waste of money. He's a gamer and all, but it's money down the drain. And yes, I wish him the best in his recovery. It sucks he got hurt. I don't feel sorry for baseball teams that waste money like this, however. Giving pitchers multi year megabuck deals is just stupid in this day and age of coddling arms that in the best of times can't give a team more than 105 pitches a night. Nobody held a gun to the head of owners who brought this upon themselves.

How long was the ban?

Beckham is in the big leagues for good. He ain't being sent down.

You ain't alone. People who read game threads regularly know the routine.

If he gets sent down, it means we are not going to win the division. We can't win with Lilly/Omar at second.

Game threads don't seem to attract confident fans. There's usually a lot of doom and gloom. When the going gets tough, the posters don't like it.

I wish I was at all four games. Not as nerve wracking to be in the stadium.

Speak for you-self. Just kidding, but I am very comfortable with him.

Sounds good to me. Make him a utility guy. I like Dayan.

Thornton with the gas. How'd we get our 8 runs? Who's the hero offensively?
