QUOTE (Brian @ May 14, 2013 -> 09:27 PM) Robin starting to piss me off. If he's willing to sit Konerko like this, he better be willing to do it to Done. This sounds like Konerko wanting to be out

It seems obvious Ventura was talking about De Aza by saying someone's not paying attention to what's going on. I wish the same could go with benching whatever coach decided to pitch to Plouffe tonight with open base.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 14, 2013 -> 05:01 AM) Partial answer: PK can't play 1B every day Full answer: PK can't play 1B every day and we owe Dunn lots and lots of money Dunn can play when Konerko needs a rest. Wise in CF would improve the offense and defense, but sadly wouldn't even be close to enough to make a big difference.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ May 14, 2013 -> 05:01 AM) Really? He would have had to glove flip to get the runner at 2nd. The ball was hit hard. He should have made the play, but it would have been a really good play, not routine. He could have easily flipped it with his right hand, but he tried to make the fancy play.

At this point, why not put De Aza as the DH and bench Dunn? Put Wise in CF.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 14, 2013 -> 03:17 AM) Firing him. He just hasn't been able to put an end to the collapse from last season. It's just been a downward spiral, and now it is starting to seem like the Sox will be in the market for a new manager after this season. Knowing the Sox, they'll probably just make Konerko the manager if he retires.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 14, 2013 -> 03:44 AM) This team could use an off day As Hawk just said, "right now, we're just not a good team" We should all be thankful Ventura didn't sign an extension and this is PK's final season under contract.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 14, 2013 -> 03:42 AM) Sox better get used to the basement in AL central they will be there awhile. If the Twins find some pitching, then I would tend to agree with you. Twins having maybe 2 of the 3 best hitting prospects in baseball really allow them to focus on acquiring pitching going forward. They're almost the opposite of the Sox in this way.

Jeez, Keppinger could have done that. Is Konerko just gonna pull a Kerry Wood and retire during the season?

Nice job to not let Keppinger bat here.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 14, 2013 -> 02:33 AM) Can't argue with the ADA-Alexei 1-2 punch so far Yep, working well

Wow, how did Rios miss that pitch

Ha, Hawk is so pissed about pitching to Plouffe earlier.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 14, 2013 -> 03:15 AM) I think we can agree this is a bad group of offensive players and the Sox seem to have them all. Beckham will fix the offense

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ May 14, 2013 -> 03:12 AM) I don't want to get into that debate, but this team has 2 offensive players that aren't offensive. Just 2? Paul Konerko should be thankful for Dunn and Keppinger's awful start, as it's kept the heat off of his bad season.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 14, 2013 -> 03:11 AM) Thank you Kenny Williams. It's just hard to win consistently when your offense and defense are so horrible. So many games the Sox should have won this year that they've thrown away due to just stupid defensive plays.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 14, 2013 -> 02:09 AM) Cubs are up 5-0 That's cause they have the NL Cy Young on the mound With that said, the Cubs starting pitching is insane this year.

Looking like we'll be 3.5 back in last place after tonight and the only team with a negative run differential. Can Sale pitch every night?

Wow, that's an awful pitch by Santiago.

Wow, another shot by Hawk at the decision to face Plouffe. Hawk and Stone would be banned by WSI for tonight's words.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ May 14, 2013 -> 02:05 AM) That would be Ramirez' booted DP ball. And then the bench being asleep to not walk Plouffe with the open base.

It's a strange world we live in when Hicks hits no doubters to dead center and Dunn connects on one that doesn't leave the park.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 14, 2013 -> 03:02 AM) Can't catch a break, can we? Nope

Oh my

Goodness this ump sucks
