QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 4, 2011 -> 08:58 PM) When was this? Pierre leading off and Morel batting 9th is way too NLish for me

Ugh, I wish we had someone with power on our bench. It still amazes me how poorly our bench was put together this year. Thankfully for Ozzie's sake, Lillibridge was better defensively than they though in the OF. I still believe Omar is a waste of roster spot this season.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 4, 2011 -> 08:53 PM) Remember when our lineup scared pitchers? You mean when we had an AL style lineup instead of Slappy McSucky leading off and a corner infielder who hits like a pitcher?

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 4, 2011 -> 08:51 PM) AJ running hard all the way. send a message and bench him. Sox are notorious around baseball for not hustling down the line.

Oh AJP...please demand a trade.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 4, 2011 -> 08:48 PM) Kgj Thank god for the memories of being there

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 4, 2011 -> 08:48 PM) Ken Griffey, Jr. in 2008 Said outfield...not deep infield

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 4, 2011 -> 08:46 PM) No, Aj had a couple before this, just not many. And then there's M-56's pickoffs. I wonder when last time we threw a runner out at the plate was from the outfield

You just get the feeling if we had a better crowd today, our hitting would come around.

Everyone here knows Ozzie would never, ever bench Pierre. There's a better chance of Ozzie being the best man at Mariotti's commitment ceremony than Pierre ever getting benched.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:37 PM) They woudln't give him up for Greinke in the offseason. That was before Phil Hughes future came in doubt.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:37 PM) What did he do that was a disaster that inning? He had to go and get 4 outs with zero help defensively including stopping runners from advancing. This wasn't his worst 6th inning outing, but with an ERA approaching 18 in the 6th inning this year, it would be nice for him to shut down the opposition for once.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:36 PM) It's simply not hard to get out of an inning against us Agreed, and something else that bugs me is that if you bring in someone like Dunn, then you might as well try to become the 2010 Blue Jays and have a lineup full of mashers. Have an 7-8-9-1 every game with no power in the AL in our ballpark is just f***ing stupid.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:34 PM) 6 innings of 3 run ball with a bunch of terrible defense isn't really comparable to Javy's "one bad pitch" or "one bad inning" He's been an absolute disaster in the 6th inning this year. If he wants "ace" money, then pitch like one.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:32 PM) Jesus.Montero. We can only wish. Instead, we'll get some retread former top prospect. Matt Bush still around? I can't wait for us to also give up our veterans players basically for free as a thank you to them (ie: Thome).

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:30 PM) Nice that Pierre doesn't know how many outs there are. Everyone is doing their job entertaining me, today. He's got to be on something...right? No hand-eye coordination, sluggish running, mentally fooled far too often.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:28 PM) Ah, the patented John Danks 6th inning. Blow this team up, already. I got scared last week when I saw a very smart man say we wanted to extend Danks' contract

Ladies and gentlemen...I give you Javy Danks

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:26 PM) I'm absolutely loving this disaster. The more embarrassing the games for the White Sox, the better off we'll be down the road. Agreed...at this point, if you're going to lose, let it be as ugly as possible. Ozzie is simply stealing money right now.

I can't believe Ozzie pitched to Kubel. I guess only Rongey and Cowley will defend him still.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:24 PM) Wow. Trying to give us outs and we don't want them Good thing we can't face ourselves...we'd bunt at will against our defense.

This is truly the worst managed team I've seen in baseball in a long time. Terrible fundamentals and strategy all around. This has to be Ozzie's last game.

Uh oh, can Javy survive the 6th here?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 4, 2011 -> 07:22 PM) He's the worst every day player in baseball. Morel's got to be giving him a challenge.

Juan's K rate is 150% higher than last year. Seems like his physical skills are fading away quickly.
