QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 08:07 PM) ESPY! I really think the only reason he is playing lately is to try to sucker someone into trading for him. Disagree, it's cause they've given up hope in Morel.

Credit to Teahen, as he showed good balance on that offspeed pitch!

Very nice Rios!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 08:00 PM) Well, 6 IP, 2 ER, not terribly bad. Yep, we have to feel lucky about it. Have never seen him throw so many high offspeed pitches in a game.

QUOTE (Elgin Slim @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 07:59 PM) One thing that I noticed about Jackson this season, is that he lacks an "out pitch." all of his secondary pitches are able to be fouled off very easily by hitters. He does not have great stuff. he just throws hard. Yep, which is odd considering his great performance in our home opener.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 07:58 PM) I assume you haven't watched White Sox baseball in what, 2+ months? since 2005

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 07:56 PM) Ohman coming in? We'll lose this game. Yeah, it would be terrible to see a guy who holds lefties to a .204 average come into the game.

Huge double play to hopefully get our relievers involved next inning.

Meanwhile Ozzie's sitting on his hands in the dugout.

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 07:48 PM) Here we go, another White Sox tradition -- walking the leadoff hitter after the offense scores a few runs. He just missed on that 3-2 pitch.

Might want to get the bullpen up.

Was it the sun that caused him to drop it? Looked more like he got his feet tangled up when he turned around.

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 06:38 PM) Do you actually believe that's going to happen with Dunn or Rios? Is 100+ games not enough? Rios is finished, IMO. Dunn's at least shown signs of putting together good at bats.

Wow, what a break!!

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 06:35 PM) Hahaha walk to get to Dunn Another reason you don't bunt with Pierre

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 07:33 PM) I thought the same thing. We're taking the bat out of the only hitter who has figured out Masterson. What good is it for Vizquel to be on second when no one will move him over to third, much less home. Especially with the huge hole between 1st and 2nd and with Alexei struggling so much lately.

Alexei's always been pull happy, but it seems to be worse than usual the last 40 games or so.

Did you know Rios is hitting about .178 against RHP and .160 on the road?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 07:27 PM) No doubt. We are going to be lucky to see him put up what CQ has hit this year. Which would make him the third best hitter on the team...I'll take it!

Way to groove it to him Edwin. I love that Quentin was playing him about 10 feet from the warning track. Man we're a boring team

Outfield better be playing shallow here with 2 outs.

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 07:17 PM) someone tell me what Rios was hacking at De Aza is a way better option right now.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 07:16 PM) I really think he could outhit Rios at this point. Rios just swung at 2 pitches head-high in that AB. It's beyond time to send him to the bench.

Boston's offense is simply amazing

Holy hell, swing the bat.
