  1. QUOTE (Real @ May 1, 2011 -> 08:53 PM) Buehrle? Really? Research that option he has if we trade him, then reassess your opinion about Buehrle being traded. I could see him reworking his contract to go to the Cards with the Sox making it easy for deal to take place.
  2. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 1, 2011 -> 08:52 PM) Pierzynski, Dunn, maybe Konerko, some of the bullpen guys. Why would anyone take AJP and his 6 mil contract next year? I also don't think teams would take the Dunn/Konerko contracts off our hands that easily.
  3. If Dunn homers here, someone is going to be in a lot of trouble.
  4. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 1, 2011 -> 08:50 PM) Just wait until the sell off... This "sell off" is greatly exaggerated. It's going to be a lot harder to dump contracts than people think. What contracts can we really unload? Buehrle and Jackson are definitely the first two to go, IMO.
  5. 22k today???? MERCY Disaster is upon us. I wonder last time they had that low of attendance on a weekend day with nice weather.
  6. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 1, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) How does Walker keep his job? It sucks...it's a hopeless feeling. I had that with GT and Hewitt's contract, but thankfully, someone finally said enough was enough. I can't wait for that to happen with the Sox.
  7. It just seems like Ozzie's accepted the fact this team is awful.
  8. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 1, 2011 -> 09:40 PM) Its a better option than Rios. The Sox are playing poorly as it is. Not to put your biggest guns out there when you have a shot at a tie or making the game much closer is silly. Teahen was a better option than Rios if Ozzie thinks Dunn needs a rest from playing in the field last night. I also love how Hawk said Rios crushed his homer last night...when it made it out by about 15 feet down the line. That was absolutely the perfect spot to use Dunn, as it's very unlikely you get another chance to tie it. Buck Showalter always makes Ozzie look like a little b**** though.
  9. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 1, 2011 -> 08:35 PM) How about a pinch hitter next time Rios comes up with runners on and the Sox desperate for runs? How I wish KW got rid of him when he could. How I wish KW didn't think we could win it all in 2009.
  10. Surprised Hawk's not saying that was a hard chopper.
  11. Hey Ozzie, you are f***ing terrible. You have a righty sinker baller on the mound...and you keep your best low ball hitter on the bench. You deserve to get fired.
  12. Ryan Franklin, on behalf of everyone who hates the Cubs....PLEASE RETIRE!
  13. Quentin popping up everything with runners on lately. He's not staying on top, and instead going with the dipping shoulder approach.
  14. I'm sure Ozzie didn't call for the bunt.
  15. QUOTE (SoxPride56 @ May 1, 2011 -> 09:24 PM) Wasn't Danks part of that deal? Or was it Floyd? I once hear it was based around Gio and Fields, with Danks absolutely not a part of it.
  16. Morel's bat placement on his load seems really bad. No prayer of catching up to a fastball and actually pulling it.
  17. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 1, 2011 -> 09:04 PM) I'm now starting to wonder with our current 3-15 stretch if we can actually go 2-11 over the next 13 games to "reverse" match our WINNING streak last year? TWILIGHT ZONE TIME. 6 in a row lost at home, no more than 4 runs scored in any of those games. BTW, Oakland and the Angels are 1-2 in AL pitching, both with ERA's under 3. And we face Pineda and King Felix. Perfect Storm, here we come! 30 of 43 on the road with a struggling team = season over early
  18. One observation on the year: Jeff Niemann must really suck
  19. Orioles just have a swagger it seems like. Very good defense out there and a lot of confidence.
  20. Don't tell caulfield that Indians just scored 2 runs to take the lead. 10 games out, here we come
  21. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 1, 2011 -> 07:48 PM) The White Sox are horrendous at baseball, lol. For this next post, I'll use a synonym of horrendous Atrocious defense...check Atrocious offense...check Atrocious bullpen...check The only thing we've been solid at is our strating pitching has been good. Outside of that, from a performance perspective, we've done everything else poorly. And while I'm not writing the season off, these consistent slow starts get pretty old and I'd like to think at some point someone takes a fall for them. Starting pitching hasn't been all that good, as our ERAs are 3.06, 3.60, 4.46, 5.12, 5.86 (worst two are our top 2 starters supposedly)
