QUOTE (Cali @ May 12, 2012 -> 06:30 PM) No reason not to rock Hochevar. NONE. He's been so bad teams have been going up there very aggressive swinging at every pitch shelling him. Should be interesting to see if that attack works tonight. As we all know, sometimes the Sox being too aggressive results in a batch of pop ups and easy innings.

I'd definitely play Dunn over Viciedo in left during the Cub series in Wrigley. Can you imagine the bombs he is going to hit if the wind is blowing out? Did he hit any monumental shots in Wrigley as a Red?? Surely this year's skinnier version of Dunn can handle LF. Dayan isn't doing squat yet. DUNN FOR LF IN THAT SERIES!

Somebody should do a video of the good Beckham of the last several games so we can look at it if/when he gets in a major funk again. I'd love to see highlight video of all his hits after all those outs.

DeAza is a cool name and it's short, why would he need a Da Da? It's DeAza.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 12, 2012 -> 04:55 AM) You mean "God-fearing". We all have learned the last few days that only true Believers have any reason not to rape and pillage. Jump to conclusions. Turn my posts into whatever you want them to be.

QUOTE (sunofgold @ May 12, 2012 -> 03:22 AM) I just joking about the statement game. Sorry I forgot the haha thing. Oops my bad. It was such a clean victory I thought you mite be serious being that we did kick KC's butt tonight.

QUOTE (sunofgold @ May 12, 2012 -> 03:58 AM) Yeah WHITE SOX win. That was a statement game. telling the Royals that they ain't catching us. Heck we are going to make it hard for them to score against us. CPOTY with a dinger in his pursuit of $10 Hamilton. It was a good win but I don't know if it was a statement game. As the cliche goes ... momentum is as strong as the next day's starting pitcher. If we get another good start, maybe it'll be a statement series. It was a good, clean victory -- the kind fans love. A little bit of everything in the game from a Sox standpoint.

He's a really good player IMO. Hope he can keep it up.

It seems to me the fact Sale's agent got involved means Sale was very very pissed at the decision to go to the pen. Rather than demanding a trade, the agent spoke out and voila ... he's a starter again. I'm thinking had the stupid decision not been reversed, the next step would have been Sale demanding a trade. Not much of this has made sense. It's "no harm no foul" if he comes right back and has a good outing against the Royals. He obviously was PISSED. And he and his agent handled it pretty well. They shut up until the agent came out with a few comments making it clear the Sox better do what they want.

I kind of like Santiago, especially compared to an Ohman and Crain. It seems like he has a clue out there. He gets the ball and delivers it quickly and often times with authority.

I don't see how Morel is going to be able to play with a bad back. Can you imagine all the pressure on the back taking grounders and swinging as hard as he does? Man on third nobody out. Nice.

That's very weird. We lost our feed for a while here in KC; the station was showing the Dan Patrick Show.

Rios with a huge hit off the wall. Beautiful baseball. The opposite field is your friend again, Alex.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 12, 2012 -> 01:21 AM) Greg, I've heard of state budgetary desperation, but the State of Missouri selling specialized "Jayhawks" license plates? That really takes the cake. I can't imagine people getting a license plate like that unless they want their cars destroyed in Missouri. You think if we don't score here it will bite the Sox in the butt? First and second nobody out?

QUOTE (DirtySox @ May 12, 2012 -> 12:20 AM) Park is barren. It's got to be the economy. Who has that kind of money to spend on a simple baseball game when you can go see minor league baseball in the Chicago area for pennies?

Dunn is really amazing this year. He should hear NO BOOS at home the rest of the year. It must be nice for him to hear cheers at home. Anybody who boos him after a strikeout this year should be flogged.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 12, 2012 -> 12:10 AM) For Greg, Royals 11-7 against the White Sox in 2011. Last time Royals won the season series, interestingly enough, was the 2000 season. 2009, split the series 9-9. Floyd, 3-8 in his career against KC, mid 4's ERA. Last 3 starts. 1.70 ERA, 4 ER in 21 IP. Let's hope this string can continue 2-3 months at least. Because sooner or later, he'll go back to "bad Gavin" where he pitches like Humber did in the second half of 2011. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 12, 2012 -> 12:14 AM) Hosmer hitting .181 with a .605 OPS. Royalstalk.com is b****ing he wasn't traded when his value was high and also can't believe he's not being sent to AAA. 1.) That was hard to take last year. Royals owned the Sox. 2.) Then that website is a total joke. the people of KC aren't on Hosmer at all. They still believe he's amazing and going to be a star. There's some stat saying how unlucky he's been, his balls in play stat. But most Royals fans still worship Hosmer.

QUOTE (Sockin @ May 11, 2012 -> 10:42 PM) Sale is back in the rotation. MRI was fine. https://twitter.com/#!/laurencewholmes/...063681411387392 yes! I'm going to pretend the past 2 weeks never happened. Too confusing and infuriating re. Sale to dwell on.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 11, 2012 -> 10:46 AM) Pills that are supposed to block the seizures...and don't. No clue why. Doctor couldn't shed light on it. Well obviously you are gonna have to go to another doctor for testing, right? Are you getting seizures all the time? Are they really bad where you pass out and your life is in danger if u are driving, etc? I'd assume you have had some tests rather than the doctor just saying he has no idea. An MRI of the brain?

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ May 11, 2012 -> 09:48 PM) Does anyone here worship Satan? No, but I worship Dana Carvey for those Church Lady skits with the word Satan on SNL. I still can't get over jordan calling me a "vile" human for cracking a little joke. My gosh.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 11, 2012 -> 09:45 PM) And close-minded. You guys don't know me. I can assure you I lead a good law abiding life and try to help others whenever I can. Thanks badger.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 11, 2012 -> 09:43 PM) You are a vile human being. I've never met anyone more clueless. It was a joke. You ever watch TV? Stuff about hot chicks appears every other commercial. I would go to seminars on other religions though, if I had time. Why not? I don't have to join.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 11, 2012 -> 09:40 PM) Place yourself in the shoes of a Mormon. Wouldn't you be pretty offended by his post? Probably. I haven't studied Mormonism that closely. Doesn't it allow you to have several wives? That's against the law.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 11, 2012 -> 09:39 PM) He was recommending non-believers to attend this work shop. I'm a non-believer. Why would I ever want to go to something like that? Looks like a thinly veiled way to convert. Curious, would you go to an Islam work shop at the local mosque to be taught by Islamic clerics about their core beliefs? Cause he was responding to people who had answers to some simple questions. Sure I'd go to the Islam workshop if I had time. Why not? Especially if there were some hot chicks there.
