QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 3, 2013 -> 03:03 AM) SUCK IT AJ! Notice the stare at Reed after he struck out?

Gas! Hell of a series win

That 3-2 pitch to Cruz was sure close to being a strike.

Let's score 2 runs so Reed can come in and hit AJ again

Boozer should have been able to get the offensive rebound on Nate's missed shot.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 3, 2013 -> 03:25 AM) David Lee playing for GS Derrick sits out Wow, I can't believe Lee is playing. Good for him

Taj having a terrible game

QUOTE (Jake @ May 3, 2013 -> 02:16 AM) Matty Ice! +1

Teague just can't shoot, he needs to be more aggressive.

Huge DP! The passed ball might have been the best thing for the Sox.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 3, 2013 -> 02:55 AM) Lindstrom against Berkman? Here's where the lack of LH depth is hurting us in the pen now. Why not bring in Thornton here? What are you saving him for? Lindstrom has been the worst one out of the pen of late.

Even if it works out, I can't believe Ventura brought in a righty to face Berkman.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 3, 2013 -> 02:44 AM) C. Carter now has 47 K's in 100 AB's. And Porcello's ERA is 8.14. Yikes. Wonder how long before they go to Smyly? I doubt they would be stupid enough to release him and let him to go the White Sox. But stranger things have happened. Porcello would get claimed by every team in baseball. His ERA is inflated cause that one horrific start. I want the Tigers to get rid of him after he dominated the Sox last season.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 3, 2013 -> 01:43 AM) Whether he is 24 or 27 is immaterial if this is his first real shot in the big leagues. If we got 4-5 years out of this catcher, it's all worth it I put him in the same category as De Aza last year. Inexperienced with a year to prove themselves in an important role.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 3, 2013 -> 01:41 AM) What is Flowers with RISP now? 2-20, and the 2 hits were both 3 run homers.

FLOWERS!! I was so hoping he'd shut me up there.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 3, 2013 -> 01:38 AM) Flowers is 27 not a real young guy. Only a year younger than John Danks

QUOTE (Jake @ May 3, 2013 -> 02:34 AM) Yeah. We're dying to have a team that lets young guys play, but are flabbergasted when it doesn't pan out (or doesn't start well, at least) I wouldn't consider Flowers exactly a young guy (27 years old). Also, I think everyone knew he was going to struggle mightily to hit if he had to face a lot of righties this year.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 3, 2013 -> 02:32 AM) We want to give young guys playing time, but hate the young guy we give playing time. Who are you referring to? Flowers?

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 3, 2013 -> 02:31 AM) The question is what happens to him in a few weeks if Danks comes back? Will they move him or Axelrod to bullpen? I know what I'd do without question, but god only knows what Robin and/or Hahn will decide. They may be against having 4 lefties in the rotation. By that time, who in the heck knows who will be injured

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 3, 2013 -> 02:29 AM) You feel good now but what happens when he has a bad outing or two? Part of the maturation process for him as a starter. It's going to happen, as even the home run he allowed tonight was on a cutter, a pitch he didn't throw as a reliever.

Great to see Santiago performing well. Beginning of a long starting career for him hopefully.

QUOTE (Baron @ May 3, 2013 -> 01:26 AM) Personally...I wanted us to resign Youk. Everyone knew his back couldn't hold up though.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 3, 2013 -> 01:24 AM) 1-2-3 Kep looking like a terrible signing. Of course, Eric Chavez is playing well and has stayed healthy so far.

QUOTE (Baron @ May 3, 2013 -> 02:22 AM) Kepp is just brutal to watch... People keep talking about his babip, but it's hard to take comfort in that when his outs are so weak. I wonder if he came into camp way out of shape due to his leg injury during the offseason.
