QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 09:28 PM) Don't be seduced. Again. Just let him contribute when and where he can. Oh trust me, I don't want him to be a full time starter. He's a great platoon/utility player. I also think that having PK out of the dugout might be a plus for him.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 09:28 PM) it's frustrating that guys aren't excited over a .5 WAR player that no other MLB team wanted that has had a nice 30 PA? Wow, I know it's been a s*** start but come on. He's doing a great job in his role. That's all we can ask for anyone on the team.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 08:15 PM) The only hockey I can watch is playoff hockey. No shootouts and a definite winner. The only hockey I watch on tv is old school games of Blades of Steel

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 09:22 PM) It's obviously really early, but he has been one of the best players on the team. Maybe he has found his niche. Although if this continues, he is going to have to get on the field more. It's frustrating that more people on here aren't excited about his contributions so far.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 09:07 PM) Really avi... ?

Should be Duke for the 7th

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 08:45 PM) Perfect time to steal, it was just a perfect throw. Like you said, now we have the top of the order up. I am really liking what Micah has been doing lately Every time Johnson reaches first with 2 outs and no one on, he should try to steal.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 07:23 PM) Send it to me. Sounds interesting. Ha, that was far too long ago to still have around. My wife wanted me to take a class with her during our senior year, so I took a course that focused on movies highlighting individuals with disabilities.

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 08:06 PM) Ha. I did papers in college, breaking down scenes from Raging Bull, Apocalypse Now, and even American Psycho. I would never think any film student would take MoS and break it down like that and be accurate. I wrote a paper in college based off of Amy Poehler's character in Deuce Bigalow! Good times quoting her character word for word.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 07:19 PM) Conor magic stick is gone. I'm not a fan of his new swing. Seems to be lunging at the ball a lot.

Conor is not getting it done with the bat. I wonder how long of a leash they'll have with him before Beckham starts getting more ABs.

I'll take it, had to get that run in.

Not a good game for either Hawkins/Anderson

Did Hawk say "there's your run Jeff?" Statistics have shown that whenever Hawk says that, the Sox pitcher allows 5.643 runs per game. Sarcasm, but whenever he's said that in the past, the Sox pitching has struggled.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 06:07 PM) https://mobile.twitter.com/ESPNChiSox/statu...931903903096832 Sox are 29th in total attendance (lol 5 games) and 27th in average. The average is a bit scary because the 5 games should only greatly increase that due to one of those games being opening day. Not concerned yet, but this team better start winning to get more of a buzz from the fans. Today's attendance makes sense given the awful weather.

Normally I would complain about this attendance....but I don't blame people for not going today. The Cubs would have found a way to postpone this game

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 04:50 PM) LaRoche has a career 88 wRC+ against LHP. That is by no means good, but it's also very much not a disaster, and very much not that far off from what other guys have against the platoon split, and fortunately for us, there are vastly fewer lefties than righties. Out of curiosity, what is his wRC+ against LHP the last 3 years?

On the radio today, they said that McShay's newest mock has the Bears taking L. Williams

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 03:12 PM) Poor Lou. Luckily, Billy still gave him the OK to marry his Mom. What a season. Haha, well said. Ken Griffey Jr. is the best defensive player in Game 163 history

QUOTE (LDF @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 03:50 PM) Randy Johnson, the ultimate player. pitch the opening game of the playoff, came in several days later to pitch in relief when his team had the lead and started 2 days later, this last part i think is true. he was putting everything on the line for the playoff. i even think as a joke he said that he would have played a position, if the team needed him to. He also came in to get Lou to fly out to the warning track (hell of a catch by Griffey Jr.) in the 9th inning of Game 163 at the TwinkieDome

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 04:33 AM) But you'd rather watch a team you hate than a team you love.... Not that you care, but the set up is usually Sox game on tv and monitoring games on mlb.com

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 03:18 AM) I'm pretty sure he likes a certain backup middle infielder Hey, he's about the only one overachieving so far on offense.

And to think Eric Cooper was selected for the World Series last year

Hawk doesn't seem to like this team very much.
