Baj has been pretty lights out for Charlotte thus far.

Yep, what Dan said. The new site is going to be features based and should have an awesome layout. Also Tony, the site is definately getting more popular and now I think we'd like to get that popularity out on a broader level. This should help eventually, in my mind, get the site a generic minor league set of credentials (if their is one). The new writers should be pretty badass, to go with the current staff we have (which is an awesome one!!!!!). I'm really looking forward to things progressing, but to say the least, I'm very pleased with how the site has done in its first year, in fact I'm exstatic. Its also given the opportunity to add some young, great minds like Evan, Andrew, and of course Dan to go with the original staff of Mike, Me, and Alex.

To go along with this, the site is finally going to be unveilling its new design.

Hopefully you all enjoy it, but we will be adding a more national perspective to the site as well, so be sure to tell all your friends and what not about us. We are going to have two new national writers, possibly more, and will have a ton of generic minor league baseball news on the site as well. You can expect to see this as soon as week from now (more likely two weeks) and the first piece will be up this weekend on the life of minor leaguers. Were excited to announce this change and hopefully you all are too. We will be sticking with our White Sox approach though and their will be more writers focused on that.

I have pinned this topic, cause I know their are a lot of Bears fans on the board. Great idea for starting this thread

I looked at the other articles too, didn't look like much of a GOP site, as I think was mentioned earlier in the thread. I also read another one of the articles and it seemed pretty odd. I even thought the wording of this article was odd and really strangely written for what would be a respectable site. Ie, I think this is bs.

Hell ya queen. And Gashie, sprees are good, but I prefer sweet tarts But Gummie Bears rock as well.

I don't have a clue. When I wrote about it last night I was puzzled and I'm still puzzled about it. Only thing I can think of is that Larson isn't really going to pitch and they didn't want to do that to someone in Bham.

At the same time, blame Manos for todays game, but he is one of the few players that typically excells at doing the little things. I know its a tough day and he made some really odd plays, but overall, like Crede (who made his error) Jose is an absolutely unbelievable baserunner and a guy that can do the little things, even though he is in a slump.

Well on the bright side, 3/1/2 games out means the team is still in it. At the same time wite is right, you don't blame any one player for this performance, it falls on the team and their lack of exeuction. Its not something that started today and it probably won't end today, its been an ongoing process and the team is just continually getting worse at it. SOme changes are going to have to be made and they will have to be made now. Maybe its not a personell change thats needed, maybe its a good kick in the nuts to every god damn player in this team to put an empahsis on doing and accomplishing the little things. These guys must not know what it takes to win tough games. They had been doing a decent job at it earlier in the yaer, but with Maggs and Frank, they were more suited to overcome mistakes. Now they aren't. Talent wise the Sox are no better then the Twins, mentally the Twins kick the White Sox Ass 10 FOLD. That doesn't bode well, but the Sox could fix things. Maybe a new top of the order guy is the answer, but Willie is taking pitches and playing decent, imo. I'd like to see him out their day in and day out, unless a truly good leadoff hitter is out there. But that still doesn't solve the 2 hole, which to me is an even bigger concern. Harris in general gets on base, the 2 hole hasn't gotten on base for a long time.

I get article not found???

Your right, Jose shouldn't hit in the 2 hole, especially when he's in a slump. The Sox need to get some top of the order people.

MOTHER f***ER, game over...chalk this down as the time I call for some wholesale changes, either to the approach, or to the actual players on the team. Absolutely, f***ing garbage. Video tape this game, give it to youngsters everywhere and show it as how a team should never ever f***ing play. Fundemental baseball isn't hard, its something that has to be taught and taugh t from a young age. Maybe the Sox minor league coaches aren't doing it, how the hell do I know, but I know I'm goddamn sick of seeing it over the past 3 years. f*** YOU WHITE SOX :fyou

It could change it for the good cause if Ozzie goes off right and the players f***ing get their heads out of their asses. Thats what I gotta hope

Whenever Carlos is hitting homers, its a bad sign, cause he gets into homer mode and well then your freaking toast.

What a f***ing bulls*** game...make some changes, do what you gotta do management, cause this team (the way they are playing) ain't going anywhere. With Maggs and Frank, tahts a different story, but get realistic, they wont' be here this year, or at least not likely. The Sox had been playing Minny good all year long and now once again they get their asses clobbered by the Twins at home (probably a sweep).

The Sox better do whatever it takes to tie this game back up or win it. Nathan is freaking awesome, so they may have to get creative here. God I can't go into how pissed off I am today. This is just a culmination of the s***ty execution that has been happening of late. f***ING HUNTER, robs Timo of a double.

Well, if the Twins want anymore confidence coming in and taking 2 of 3 or possibly sweeping the Sox could do it. ANd they ahd two games that they should of/could of won. They had opportunities against Radke early and today have just freaking handed this game over. Your right, the Twins are the best team in the division and will be until the Sox prove otherwise. This team needs to grow up, the vets gotta put the team on their shoulders, help out the youngsters, and everyone needs to start executing.

You wanna know why the Twins won the division the past two years....this is WHY. f***ING BULLs***. End this frame and let the lumber come a swinging.

Shingo, get this guy out..offense get the job done and win this game that you've played like s*** in. After the game, Ozzie, get on their asses, preach the small ball and the little things and fire this team up.

Holy crap, Jose drops it in foul territory.

Thats fine. This team has bulls*** fundementals and I've been calling them out on it. Crede made an error today, its execused cause out of all the players on this team, he has good fundementals. I could b**** about his average or whatever, but he always goes up and you can see he's always trying to get the job down, move the guys over, do whatever it takes. I have so much respect for that. Konerko does the same thing as do other guys, but they are not getting it done, they are getting greedy and aren't putting the focus on doing the little things and make sure that guy on 3rd gets in when you have less than 2 outs.

This is bulls***. This team over the past two weeks has played absolute s*** when it comes to fundementals. They can't keep doing this with Thomas and Maggs out injured. I've been complaining about this for some time, but this is not the way you play if your going to win the game. Earlier today, 3 hits and 3 walks in an inning and only a run. Then you had Radke on the ropes early in the opening game but the Sox continued to fail to execute. I'm not even talking about singles with one out, I'm talking about getting the run home from 3rd base. Its freaking basics. Twins made a nice play their and I'm not going to necessarily jump on Borchard because he hit a rope to 3rd. I'm sick of this s***...Ozzie, get into a drill sergeant and freaking bust these guys ass on the fudnementals again. Everyone needs a little reminding, these guys need it right now.

Nice, thats the walk. Come on Timo
