QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 20, 2011 -> 11:47 AM) Isn't Hendry basically KW except for Bartman? For the last 3 1/2 years, yes.

Somebody in this town with some authority gets it.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 19, 2011 -> 10:00 PM) We need to steal their scouts and instructors. It's so disheartening when you look at some of these organizations and how they conduct business.

Uhera-Adams-Feliz could potentially be murder come October. Very underrated rotation and an offense as explosive as any in the game.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 19, 2011 -> 09:42 PM) We can pull for Flowers to get a golden sombrero in the 9th. Yay!

Give Kinney some credit, I guess.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 19, 2011 -> 09:38 PM) Hawk with a slight jab at the attendance. Personally, I think the Sox are getting what they deserve. They're just a boring team. The two most exciting players on the team are probably relievers.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2011 -> 09:31 PM) Brewers are pretty damn good right now, and Kimbrel has got to be the most electric reliever in baseball this year for the Braves. As a Cubs hater, I enjoy seeing the depth of great teams in the NL. I'd like the Brewers a lot more with a healthy Weeks. And I don't know about that Atlanta offense. The Phillies just have no discernible weakness.

Off-topic: good luck to whoever has to play the Phillies come October. Easily the most complete team in baseball. Hunter Pence, like I knew he would, has fit in beautifully.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Aug 19, 2011 -> 09:14 PM) Anyone still holding out hope for this year?? Not a chance. I wasn't swindled into thinking this team had flipped a after beating up on 2 of the top 3 worst teams in the AL. We're simply not in the league of the elites. And really

QUOTE (kapzk @ Aug 19, 2011 -> 09:00 PM) It went from filthiest stuff of the season to the worst start of the season We've seen this 4-5 times this year with him.

Wait a minute? I have been drinking a little. Rios has 28 RBIs? 28 RBIs on August f***ing 19th!

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 19, 2011 -> 08:55 PM) one guy does not a pitching staff make. It can in a best of 5.

Didn't Peavy demand at one point in '09 that whatever team he was traded to pick up his option? lol. So long, loser.

It's laughable when I hear "we're as dangerous as anybody come October because of our deep rotation."

QUOTE (danman31 @ Aug 17, 2011 -> 11:11 PM) This is more of a general thing, but you can't b**** and moan about the system and then b**** and moan about two players they developed that are succeeding elsewhere in the bigs. The system isn't good now, but the Sox have developed some players. Wrong. This isn't necessarily b****ing about obsessing over players we traded away that are now flourishing elsewhere. Every team trades guys away that go on to produce elsewhere. With the Sox, they do this and can't alleviate or neutralize said bad trades with other homegrown products of their own. Like the Atlanta Braves.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 17, 2011 -> 10:59 PM) For the record, that wasn't a shot at you, just making fun of my idiocy from January. I've pretty much agreed with you 100 percent this year on the organization, on this team, etc but I do totally disagree with you on cheering for them not to make the playoffs. Now, don't get me wrong, I understand the point you're trying to get across but I guess I'm of the opinion that even if we don't get into the playoffs that there's a decent chance that no changes will be made. I want this team to make the playoffs AND make changes next year but I truly believe that neither of those are going to happen. 2nd place finish and the same crap going into next year. Obviously I hope I'm wrong but I really have 0 faith in this organization to do anything correct. You, sir, are a negative nelly and I want you removed from this board at once.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 17, 2011 -> 10:02 PM) Mitchell managed another 3 K game. Down to .229 now, wonder if Dunn/Rios/Beckham are rubbing off on the entire system? Well, at least Brandon Allen hasn't been affected, hit another triple for the A's and has been on fire since the trade. I still have no idea why the Dbacks refused to give him a shot. Then again, they traded one of the top dozen or so pitchers in baseball for Joe Saunders. Oh, nice to see DLS consistently hittin' 97-98 MPH on the black.

Thanks for nothin'.

C'mon, Gordon. Make me look stupid right here.

No chance with this lineup. Lucy, Beckham, Morel and Dunn? May as well have had 4 NL pitchers in there. There's just no way this team is going to go on the run required to win this division with so many replacement or below replacement level players offensively.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 17, 2011 -> 09:31 PM) It's so setting up that if Ozzie returns next year, so will Pierre. I'll be filing for a White Sox divorce if that happens. I'll claim intellectual incompatibility

That works.

Twins about to choke on a fat one. Joe Mauer got overrated real quick.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 17, 2011 -> 09:02 PM) Do we really need this daily? 30 Ks in 82 ABs in Kanny. Can we at least draft a different breed of suck?
