Jermaine swinging and missing 85 mph fastballs right down the plate. This is just one of those stretches where everything seems to go wrong. I look forward to seeing the team play better baseball.

QUOTE (That funky motion @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 11:01 PM) And jogged after the bad jump. At least Stoney ripped on him.

QUOTE (Sox It To Em @ Apr 26, 2009 -> 12:00 AM) 1-0. Gonna be a long night. If Buehrle's throwing 83 mph coming off of 5 days rest, then I think there may be some validity to the concerns the Sox have about his shoulder.

Blooper falls in front of Owens, who had a terrible jump.

1st and 3rd, no outs on a flare by Millar. It's going to be a long night for Hawk.

What is gameday stating Buehrle's fastball is at? I really, really hope the WGN gun is off.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 11:52 PM) Why did we give our best player from yesterday a day off? Did he hit the ball too much? He was scratched

We've been awful at scoring runs in the first inning this year. It would be nice to get some momentum, as even Hawk seems to be waiting for something bad to happen.

I don't know what's going on, but Buehrle looks hurt. He's throwing his fastball 82 mph, and it's just floating up to the mound.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 11:34 PM) I don't see Wells going off the board in any of the next 3 picks so it could get interesting to see if the Browns end up getting him and grabbing him. Anyone that takes Beanie now is getting one hell of a value pick, imo. Arizona has been said to want a RB with the 32nd pick.

Can't Betemit play 2nd base? This is a 2007 lineup though only 3 weeks into the season.

I believe this game will start in a rain delay.

That's just freaking ridiculous to have to play Owens, especially against a lefty. The Swisher trade becomes more of a joke with every passing day. BTW, why was Getz scratched?

Oh Albert....mercy, that was destroyed

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 10:13 PM) ..wasnt marmol pitching in the 8th? wouldnt they pinch hit for the pitcher? It happened in today's game.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 10:12 PM) His girlfriend isn't attractive. Me and my girlfriend saw them and my girlfriends first comment was on how odd she looked and I concurred. Gotcha...couldn't get a good look at her.

Can't tell for sure, but looks like Cushing's girlfriend or sister is pretty attractive.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 08:50 PM) 2nd and 3rd 1 out, makes sense to me. u need the k there Not with the pitcher up next, who didn't come within a foot on any of the pitches he saw.

Marmol has a slight knee sprain. Piniella with a terrible managing decision, as he pitched to the #8 hitter with 2nd and 3rd, 1 out.

Raji's going to the Packers

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 09:26 PM) IDK, Alexei is batting ninth. So Corky might be batting 4th?

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 09:14 PM) Some rumors swirling that Hester is on the block. Quite interesting. Where you see this?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 08:16 PM) Lillibridge strikes out just as often and his flyballs don't go as far. He'd win a race though. Is Corky playing tonight?

QUOTE (jamesdiego @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 09:12 PM) And now it begins, Lillibridge to the rescue tonight. Playing CF, battin 2nd. Anderson to RF, Dye to DH. Did Brent even play CF in spring training, how's his D? I think this means Owens is out soon, with Nix coming up. blog I love it...I could go without seeing Thome ever face a LHP again.

QUOTE (knightni @ Apr 25, 2009 -> 04:24 PM) It was a $100 bill from Cito Gaston, thanking him for the pitch selection. Awesome!
