QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 9, 2015 -> 02:14 AM) Attendance = 17032 Without that Cub series, that's about it for the rest of the year. When Sox play Royals and Tigers and Cubs there should be more fans of the opponent there than Sox fans.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 9, 2015 -> 02:08 AM) We have distinct proof otherwise. Then I'm wrong. I feel we have a lot of Nick Swisher's on this team. Melky and LaRoche remind me of Swisher. Lousy hitters.

I said he was a "cheater in the past," what's so bad about that. You are right though, I truly dislike Melky and LarRoche.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 9, 2015 -> 01:58 AM) How much longer can they keep throwing Danks out there to get shelled? His salary is a SUNK COST for Christ's sake, why is that so hard to understand? The Cubs kicked Jackson out of the rotation and were quick to kick out Wood as well, why are we so slow on the trigger? So frustrating. It really doesn't matter at this point who pitches. Danks has had some good starts as well as pathetic ones.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 9, 2015 -> 01:54 AM) Steak to dog crap. No need to rip a player that strongly. I've been tempted to rip guys like LaRoche similarly and don't go that far. Some of us are Danks fans here.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 7, 2015 -> 04:08 PM) While I never want to see Ozzie back as a coach or manager here, I would love to see a personality LIKE Ozzie's in the lockerroom to keep things loose. Southsider, you whiffed on this post after a series of good ones. There are no "personalities" in the dugout. Piniella and Ozzie are gone. They are all cliche machines scared to death of offending anyone in this PC world. Ozzie was unique; there are no personlities LIKE Ozzie's around. Clint Hurdle might be close. These managers are scared of the PC police and just trying to survive day by day without offending anybody or getting fired.

My crystal ball is telling me Blue Jays 7, Chicago 1. So if you have a bookie or are in Vegas bet Jays and the under for a little parlay.

If you guys need a college basketball/Billy Self fix, Kansas plays Serbia on ESPNU right now. Live. Serbia is good. 10 p.m., Central time, start.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:48 AM) You know Melky has been our best hitter the past few week right? That's like saying Cutler is the Bears' best quarterback the last 8 weeks of last season. QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:49 AM) If every single batter isn't going up to Q and apologizing ferociously, they're wrong. Call up Micah and Davidson. Davidson can't be any worse than Conor and then Gordon can go back to a backup INF role. Amen. I'd endorse those two moves!

Can't believe I wasted two hours of my life watching that crap. True, I got to see the master, Q, pitch. But I already knew he was a god. Sickening display of offense, White Sox. All the usual suspects continue to suck. Please get rid of LaRoche and Melky ASAP. And trade Shark for a haul!! Get the trading in gear. We can rob somebody blind for Shark, who is excellent of late.

Good bunt. Sox haven't had a clean hit in a while. How bout a base hit???

Beckham isn't hitting; don't like this matchup.

That lucky bastard with the hot chick behind the plate.

I hope we get a hit batsman to lead off the inning, then a rare double.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:23 AM) LaRoche is getting the veteran treatment where he won't be benched, regardless of what the splits say. Exactly. You don't pinch hit for an Adam LaRoche. Too big a name.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:20 AM) Wonder why no one is there sitting on your hands 9 innings for 1 or 2 runs game a game, who would want to come back? Unless you are a total die hard and can't live without several home games a year cause it's in your blood, you can't come back after a game like this. Fool me once ...

LOL. I never thought I'd prefer Dunn to Adam but believe it or not given the choice ...

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:18 AM) Please tell me we're going to use a pinch hitter rather than have LaRoche face lefty. Can't pinch hit. Adam is a "star" and he'd be offended and it would be a huge deal, etc.

The odds of LaRoche whiffing here vs. a lefty? 97 percent? 3 percent ground out to right side.

Poor Avi had no chance that at bat. He was all out of sorts. Whiff.

I no likey Melky. Do not like him as a player.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:12 AM) Someone please generate a run. I don't care if all he gets is a no decision again, someone just make sure Jose does not lose this game. I agree with Balta. It's just wrong that Q loses this game.

Hate to say it but I miss the ol lift and pull days. I miss home runs.

When did Alexei turn into Alan Bannister?

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 02:03 AM) Carlos Sanchez has to go. Look. If you can't put down a bunt in that situation and you are hitting .150 or whatever he is hitting, he MUST go down tonight. Bring up Micah now for the rest of the season. Q losing tonight is really criminal. Make Sanchez tonight's scapegoat. SEND HIM DOWN!
