QUOTE (greg775 @ May 7, 2011 -> 03:40 AM) Look at that, a sacrifice bunt. Yes the bunt is called for at times when the book says play to tie at home, win on road. Though Ozzie gets roasted for bunting. It was a terrible decision, as it's not like we would have thrown out Ichiro if he tried to steal.

That was barely fair. Can't walk Ichiro though in that situation.

AJP's about to get tossed back there.

Hey..looks like Konerko finally motivated someone, except it's the Seattle crowd. I'll be shocked if we still lead at end of this inning.

Beckham has no prayer of pulling the ball with authority.

Too early to put Santos in? Nice job by Dunn and PK.

Nice job Phil!

Pitch around Bradley here to get to Olivo

Relax everyone...we're just putting ourselves in position to have the first pick in the dispersement draft after the Dodgers get contracted. Knowing KW, he'll take James Loney over Kershaw.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 7, 2011 -> 03:45 AM) Just announced. The White Sox signed Greg Walker to a two-year contract extension through the 2013 season. Btw, thanks for turning Gordon Beckham into Joe Crede without the defensive resume. Crede had more power than Beckham. I really can't believe how big of a flop Beckham's on the verge of becoming.

Wow, hitless thru 3. SHOCKER!

This umpire is terrible. Felix is hanging everything, and no one can make him pay.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 7, 2011 -> 03:35 AM) Damn, I didn't even realize Smoak was hitting so well. Makes Beckham look even more pathetic. B. Wallace looks really good this year also. At least Jason Castro's hurt.

Humber has no control so far. Really want to see him work on his command over the course of the year, as even though his walk totals aren't bad, he's up in the zone far too often.

Poor Crain's ERA jumped by almost 2 runs due to Alexei's error being overturned to a hit.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 7, 2011 -> 03:17 AM) There's no might. It's bad and getting worse every year. Yet people seem genuinely happy on here with the job Buddy Bell has done.

Seems like Dunn's popped up to left field 50% of the time he makes contact. At least we get to watch Humber tonight!

Well, the NCAA Tourney just got significantly less exciting.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 5, 2011 -> 08:13 PM) Nothing short of injury will stop him from being a star. I look at skillset moreso than I do raw numbers. I'd trade anybody on our team for Castro. Oh, without a doubt.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 5, 2011 -> 06:55 PM) Castro is talented, but elite? He's going to hit for a high average but not for above average power, and while he has some speed he hasn't been much of a base stealer yet. I don't see him being anywhere near Tulo or Hanley. I've seen some scouts project Castro as a .320 type hitter, 20 homers a year. Not superstar caliber, but definitely one of the top 5 SS in the game.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 5, 2011 -> 07:34 PM) There was one 2 days ago...that was false. Was that David Kaplan one? Just saw it reading this thread. I was more trying to say to not always discredit a story like the Boozer one, which I don't think anyone has.

Last time there was a source at a hospital story that came out, it ended up being about Quentin and his broken wrist in '08.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ May 5, 2011 -> 01:18 AM) Rose is off to an awful start as well. Hawks look quicker and "hungrier" right now. No doubt Bulls will win tonight, but at Atlanta is going to be tougher than I thought it would be.

Boozer looks a step slower than the step slow he's been.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ May 4, 2011 -> 09:17 PM) fire everyone except the players since you can't I guess? Even though its 100% on the players? Sounds about right. What do you suggest they do (sincere question)?
