QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 10:37 PM) Nice to see Cubs on their way to not being in 1st place after tonight. Does this mean their fans will go back to pretending like the season isn't taking place? Cardinals are beating the Dodgers 6-0 in the 8th......

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 10:51 PM) The season is going full circle; now we're blaming Walker again. LOL, Yes....with that logic, we should start a hot streak sometime at the end of August.....but we'll be out of the race by then.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 10:40 PM) Big Brother has been trashtastic...I love it! I cannot watch "Fake"-ality tv. That's what I call it, because it obviously isn't reality. COPS, the News(not a good example), and Sporting events are examples of "REAL" tv. To each their own.

Psych Season 4 stars August 7th. This Season looks like a hit...not a miss. Three, One, then Two is how I'd rate the seasons so far.

QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 10:30 PM) Getz is still not the problem...rookie 2nd basemen hitting at the bottom of the order are role players. The real problems are people like Wise, Thome hasn't been consistent, Quentin has been injured or awful and our bullpen has been crap for a month now. Our starting pitching has been solid...which is the only reason we are not in the toilet with Kansas City. Complaining about Getz, a low paid rookie when other 'notable' players (Thome, Quentin, Jenks) are producing jack is avoiding the issue. you aren't talking to me right??? little confused at how you replied right after I defended him twice..LOL

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 10:19 PM) KW needs to do something about this immediately. This situation is…. I can think of a lot of hyperbolic words to use, right now, the most immediate one is outrageous. check my sig....get's even foggier to imagine why he is on the team....his spot on the team could be used to develop a guy, or maybe used for a guy who is good at being a utility player.

This mean Richard is back in the rotation when Thornton comes back???

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 10:11 PM) Getz has been pretty bad defensively this year. Even when he shows good range to his left, he takes too long to get the runner out. He's average on defense.....not bad, not good. He's on par with most of the good offensive 2b in the game.

Getz would be my 2nd baseman and 9/8 hitter...even after today's blunder. I realize s*** happens....and Getz doesn't make errors like that s*** even occasionally. But most of the other players (PK excluded) tend to f*** up every other game or so on defense somehow.

If you could only play all 9 positions, and bat all spots in a game(with the exception of Beckhams spot in the order)....maybe you would have had another perfect game winning 10-0

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 10:01 PM) If he is going to have a batting average of .320 or higher with a OBP around .400, then I'd be fine with him hitting 3rd. kinda like when robby alomar hit 3rd for that ridiculous indians team??

20/108 in hits 25/108 in strikeouts. HE ONLY HAS 3 f***ING WALKS ON THE YEAR....2 sb's

Wise has 5 more strikeouts than hits. WTF?

and wise to end it.....How did I know Gordon would come through??????

if beckham does anything wise is going to end it anyway....so, good luck tomorrow Colon.

5-1 top 9th

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:31 PM) He's going to bat leadoff tomorrow I'm just curious does wise have the lowest batting average for all hitters this yr? if not i'd hate to be a fan of the team that does no....there are quite a few people with more at bats with lower averages Casilla .160 Cedeno .170

Beckham is wasting away at the 8th spot/ 9th spot in the f***ing order. How often do you see him get a hit or on base only to not score anyone or score himself.....PATHETIC.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:19 PM) and he got the start in the 2nd game as well going 0-2 with a sacrifice bunt because .190 1 hr screams starter. I don't care who's pitching, or what the f***ing matchups are.....YOU CAN'T DO WORSE THAN WISE. The guy should never....NEVER START A GAME. Giving him 3 to 4 at bats a game is giving up that spot in the lineup....I'd rather throw the starting pitcher out there to hit.

I would buy tickets to watch the post game by ozzie, if he even has one. OMG.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:17 PM) has dewayne wise avg dropped below the .190 mark yet.....it's like playing limbo with his BA how low can you go!!! it's stupid when you can go 1/5 for the night and raise your damn average.

Hawk said it perfectly...the only team that scares him is the White Sox themselves. I'm gonna have to agree.

Birmingham could put on a better show offensively than this s***. I cannot believe we've played 11 games in a row scoring no more than 5 runs......PATHETIC!!!!!

3.2 runs/game average for the last 11 games....scoring no more than 5 runs.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 08:49 PM) Once again, our defense blows. WOW. And offense, and probably the bullpen to blow it.
