Fathom, I think Wright is hittable tonight, do you? So far gooseeggs.

Mr. South Side needs to hit a hr here. Slight chance of that.

Nice hit by Dye on our station to station baseball team. Nice single, though.

I think Jon is "good" not "average." I wouldn't call him great, though.

Were those last 2 strikes meat to AJ? looked like it to me. If Dye homers here, we win this game.

Whenever the Sox are on TV here and I watch, Konerko always gets singles up the middle. I rarely see him jack. Singles are good, though.

Doomed is a good word, but maybe too strong. I will be flamed for this, but I wish we had both Carlos Lee and Rowand on the team right now. Oops ... did I really write that? I'm going to be burned at the steak (Sizzler, Bonanza, Chop House).

No chance. He's too good a run producer. As big a guy as Thome is and as hard as he swings and his age, it does not surprise me when he gets hurt at this stage of his career. How can you call Jon "average?" If he's average, there are a lot of "below average" hacks taking the mound for teams.

I agree he's had a horrible standup batting stance in his brief Sox career. He stinks right now and needs to reinvent himself at the plate in AAA. Or I guess he could remain on the roster as a defensive replacement. Just assume when he plays he's going Oh-fer and take it from there.

True. So send him down to minors where he can learn how to hit at least. He can't hit big league pitching.

The Sox do this a lot, no? Home runs or nothin.

Anderson is another Jeremy Reed. Cut him loose. Trade him. He can't hit. Unless he learns how. Where will he learn? Da minors! Ship him down.

How long is Thome out?

It's great to go 2-0 in KC. We all know how the Royals gave the Sox trouble last year. A key to winning the division is taking care of KC as much as possible.

As one who has disliked Erstad, let me say, nice game. Please keep it up. And if we haters are fickle, think of the Yankee fans who booed ARod on opening day then later that day had him take a curtain call. I think we haters want Erstad to do well, we just fear he is an automatic out. Hope he proves me wrong. I want the Sox to win.

Knock on wood, knock on wood ... but Bobby was nasty tonight. Wow! He just froze the young phenom Alex Gordon to end the game. Poor Gordon might need to be sent down. He's hitting about a buck.

Exactly. He only hits in the No. 2 hole, at least as a member of the Sox. He is sooo bad when Oz experiments and moves him down. He's a perfect 2 hitter. I can't believe Oz thought that would be smart to have him bat seventh. Of course Oz didn't think Erstad would hit .200. Though Erstad to his credit, has had some hits lately.

I think he's heating up. Paulie is not over the hill. Loved Thome hitting that dribber to foil the shift late. If a team runs the shift, it seems like it should be a fine-able offense to ground out to the right side. I'd take that dribbler through the open hole every time if I was Thome. Then if they play it regular, go for the deep bombs. Do you all agree? Or should he blast away when the shift is on?

I like the way Ozzie yelled at Sisco for walking people. Seems like the taller the pitcher is, the tougher it is to throw strikes. I think all these tall guys should get extended stints in the minors till they learn to pitch like Randy Johnson did. What good is Sisco if he can't pitch without walking people??

Uribe Iguchi Thome Konerko Dye Crede AJ Anderson/Erstad Mackowiak

Erstad wouldn't be as annoying if he batted ninth. I say our lineup should be Uribe Iguchi Thome Paulie Dye Crede

Is Iguchi the only guy on the team who tries to hit the ball where it is pitched? And sometimes Paulie when he drills it up the middle?

Where is fathom? does he post during games anymore?

How could anybody be a big BA fan at this point?

Welcome to a new era. Your .500 White Sox. Looks like just an average team to me.
