QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 10:01 PM) 0-3, 3 strikeouts...2 errors for Morel. He looks overmatched out there. Seems like he's not even swinging with a purpose at the plate. By far the worst game of his career. And I still hope he, Beckham, Flowers, De Aza, Viciedo, Escobar, (in some way) Lillibridge, etc. still see consistent playing time.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 09:54 PM) Justin Verlander's face looks really punchable... Nice ass on that avatar.

I commend the people who actually are watching this game from start to finish. I only turned it on to watch Reed pitch, than immediately turned the T.V. off.

I just hope Shane Lindsay isn't mentally weak. This could be another case of Arnie Munoz type head trauma.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 09:42 PM) At least Kotchman could hit doubles. Well Casey had great plate discipline as well. I was saying more pure homer potential.

40 pitches for Reed and 41 (and counting) for Lindsay. At this rate, those guys' arms are gonna fall off.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 09:35 PM) Can he do steroids like Turnbow so that he can have more power than most NL pitchers? Though he was never going to be a huge power hitter, it just baffles me how a guy who had 3 homers last season in 70 PA, could all of sudden have 3 homers in 349 PA and look like Casey Kotchman (as far as power).

This is like watching the KC Royals playing from 05-09. QUOTE (DirtySox @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 09:37 PM) I feel bad for the Aussie. Ya DBAH0 is not gonna like his new favorite player getting hammered like this.

I hope A. Carter gets his stuff together next year when he returns to AAA. His arm is too good to have such a disappointing season. (though the K numbers were still there) Looks good in AA right now. Would love to see another great young arm, for the minimum, in that sox pen.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 09:05 PM) Yep, he looks absolutely lost at the plate. He looked far more comfortable last year when he got called up. His stance when he first came up. And that was against sox killer Bruce Chen.

Wow Morel's mechanics changed alot since last season. Kind of resembles Credes alot now (especially with the late swings on fastballs).

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) Reed not looking so hot. That slider is rolling/hanging a bit. He is obviously nervous. Saw him pitch once with the Knights, and his slider has alot more bite than this.

First sox game I've turned on in three weeks. Why? To see Addison Reed.

So Balta. Did Flowers really need another day off? Hit a homer (and only run) off one of the best pitchers in the game currently, then ride the bench.

I've hyped up Martinez for like two years now. Trammel is very underrated though. Those Tiger teams he had to manage were awful, and didn't get a fair shake (though it's been a while since I've seen him).

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 12:42 PM) I'll watch, because I'm a White Sox fan. And I won't, because I'm a White Sox fan. QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 03:59 PM) Pierre, lf Ramirez, ss Konerko, 1b Pierzynski, c Viciedo, dh Rios, cf De Aza, rf Morel, 3b Beckham, 3b Ozzie's evil fan!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 12:58 PM) There we go. We have now agreed on the dictionary definition of the term "Floor". I am content. Jesus...

King Kong.

QUOTE (Chi Town Sox @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 10:42 AM) Brandon Meriweather Outstanding player. Terrible baggage.

Wow we lost? LOL I turned off gameday considering Santos had it in the bag. That is hilarious. Ozzie, as usual, will wait till the sox are mathematically eliminated to play the kids consistently though.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 3, 2011 -> 08:48 AM) I truly am getting tired of Reinsdorf sticking his nose in there so much. He has pissed me off for years as an owner (Bulls and Sox) but like Ozzie, it's a love/hate thing. He obviously has his pros and cons as well.

Alexei.

Cheers man.

Happy Belated Rock.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Sep 3, 2011 -> 12:00 AM) After the season he has had, I can see him cracking some Top10 prospect lists, certainly top 15. Definitely top 10 on my personal list. Me and Cerb are in agreement he is probably the biggest sleeper in the system currently.
