QUOTE (pettie4sox @ May 8, 2013 -> 01:59 AM) Come on Marty, it's obvious you're seeing red right now. The pitching (starters and relievers) is good enough to compete.

Cy Wood

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:55 AM) A horrible offensive season thus far culminating with one of the worst offensive performances in franchise history should, though. Mr. Optimism

QUOTE (Jake @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:53 AM) Losing to the early favorite to win the Cy Young with no DH and your starting LF on the DL isn't really the thing that should motivate you to start moving around the lineup. Sox are a botched play by Getz away from getting shutout for 3rd time in 4 games. They're the worst offense in the AL, and it's not even close.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:48 AM) You can shake it up and move the K hitters to the bottom and hope the contact ish hitters can do something haha You might as well try to get someone on base in front of Rios. Keppinger has his sub .200 average and 0 walks is making it so easy to pitch to Rios.

Coming into today, Keppinger and Dunn were tied with Middlebrooks for the lowest WAR in baseball. Konerko has the 9th worst WAR.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:46 AM) What do you suggest they do to fix it though? For starters, get the worst player in baseball out of the 2nd spot. Flip flop De Aza and Gillaspie in the order as well.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:45 AM) One of the worst offensive performances in franchise history. Fitting for this team. This is absolutely the worst offensive Sox team in a very long time. Of course, they'll keep the same lineup for tomorrow I'm sure.

Nate Jones now 0-3, with all 3 losses coming in multiple inning outings.

Nicely done Ventura.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:41 AM) He's another signing the SABR crowd thought was ok. Six weeks into the season and hasn't hit anything with even the slightest bit of authority. But BABIP!

De Aza would have swung at that

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:39 AM) I'd normally agree, but I don't like Jones pitching two in general. Totally agree

In a 0-0 game with 2 outs and no one on, why is Dunn not swinging out of his ass on the 3-2 pitch?

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:34 AM) Keppinger got multiple pitches a high school hitter would mash. My Lord. It's not good when there's 3 guys on your roster that you seriously hope retire before their contract is up (Keppinger, Dunn, Danks)

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:33 AM) Nice! Some weak contact, just what we needed Kep! He swings like a pitcher. Actually, Santiago swung with more authority.

Goodness Keppinger sucks

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:22 AM) God these commercials suck worse than our offense. The commercial of Konerko coming out of the dugout with about 5K in the crowd is pathetic.

Wow ADA, just wow. Lay off the high fastballs if you want to stay in the majors.

Damn, good swing by Wise, just missed it.

Let's just have Danks homer again

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:10 AM) Getting rid of Manto isn't going to make the Sox hit better. Scapegoat all the way

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:07 AM) I think there's a good chance that they clean the staff out again this offseason a-la 2011. Yep, I don't think Manto will be the hitting coach next year.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 8, 2013 -> 02:02 AM) Gillaspie is going to jump on a first pitch fastball. and continue to slump

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 8, 2013 -> 12:58 AM) At this point, he's going to have to pitch his way out of the rotation. He's shown enough that even if he struggles, he should be allowed to mature and develop in the role.
