QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 02:04 PM) back to back jacks? something like that

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 11, 2010 -> 01:52 PM) I hate Juan Pierre, I hate Mark Teahen, I hate everybody that Kenny acquired this off-season for the offense. this.

i think we win this one. calling it now.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 07:48 PM) I hate to be a negative prick, but I just have a bad feeling about our offense. It's pretty bad when I'd give anything to have Ankiel in our lineup and Pods as well. I just watched Pods smash a double off the wall. Maybe I'll have to root for my Sox B-team this year as well in the Royals. I get to see Pods and Getz play regularly here. OK I'm depressed about our first five games. So kill me. i'm gonna go out on a limb here and say you're not alone.

QUOTE (scenario @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 06:43 PM) Pounding the ball? They've got 1 run so far tonight. And they scored 4 runs last night... and 3 the night before. What's your definition of "pound"? you HAVE been watching the sox correct? I'd say four runs is pounding the ball.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 07:13 PM) Correction, Linebrink and RAAANNDDY! Haven't been great. Everyone else has been pretty impressive. Especially, Thornton and Pena. and i'd throw santos in there as well. for impressive. you're right tho it's mostly liney and williams. jenks has been jenks... lil bad and a lil good. fine I'll rephrase, the management of the bullpen has been awful.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 05:16 PM) Plus you have Hawk s***ting on the bullpen when they haven't been bad. they haven't been great.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 09:00 PM) I simply dislike Jones' game. I didn't like it last year and don't now. And others will tell you I am a big Dye guy. Linebrink needs to get out of the walk-induced mess. what about it do you dislike? it's no different from Dye's except he's faster, steals bases, and is a better fielder...

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 08:58 PM) rake rake rake +1 hypocrisy is my favorite.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 08:56 PM) Why are you so heavily invested in Jones? Do you have money riding on him proving to be a success? Seriously, every time someone jumps on Jones, you jump on them. every time huh? i think... i think this is time number one that i've jumped on someone for jumping on jones. all i said yesterday was that i'd like to see him in the lineup every day. and i apologize for not condemning the guy after 1.5 games. lol

QUOTE (Real @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 08:55 PM) It's the bane of the chicago fan, you'll hear it all year long. Any player who makes an inordinant amount of money will get raked over the coals whenever they don't go 3 for 4 on a nightly basis. Fortunately I dont live in chitown but yet you still take part in the raking....

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 08:51 PM) I'd rather have any Jermaine Dye over Jones. My god. How about a clutch hit for your new f***ing team??? this is ridiculous. i guarantee you'd be screaming for andruw jones if you had to sit thru 2nd half jermaine dye again. baseball fans' memories are hilarious.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 08:48 PM) Against a pitcher that's being wild...that's EXACTLY what you should be doing! You can't hit the ball hard if its out of the strike zone! please, there have been plenty of good pitches to hit that we've popped up. did we secretly hire Joe Crede to be our hitting coach?

QUOTE (Ranger @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 12:06 PM) Beckham, by the way, is not this team's best hitter just yet. I know we're all excited about watching him develop at this level, but I think we should also reel it in a bit. i would much rather see Beckham up at the plate in a pressure situation than any other guy not named Quentin or Konerko.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 11:59 AM) Why can't stealy mcstealerson steal in the ninth and not waste Beckhams AB? He's our best hitter. Instead of getting 3 tries of a big hit with our best hitters...we gave ourselves 2 chances. exactly I thought that's the reason he was brought in in the first place

Beckham is great in the 2 hole. You know who else is great in the 2 hole? Grady Sizemore. He drove in a lot of runs last night because HE was allowed to hit. You know the rest. That is all.

hahahahahaha beckham should bunt to make the last out.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:59 PM) Neither Jones and Kotsay are fast. Jones steals bases and goes 1st to 3rd on singles. he's fast enough.

hey you guys think the royals would trade Getz for Teahen?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:49 PM) Teahan is not a very good player. A waste of $15 million. I know he sucks but TEA-HEN ...sigh...

So let's explore what could have happened there: Pierre on 1st, None Out. Pierre steals second, None out. Beckham bunts him to 3rd. One Out. IBB Quentin Paulie Sac Fly, we win. stupid.

QUOTE (bighurt4life @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:27 PM) exactly and you'd only have 1 out.

and THAT'S why we don't bunt.
