Carrasco is officially in. AWESOME, thanks KW/Ozzie

QUOTE (Chisoxrd5 @ May 10, 2009 -> 08:36 PM) We like to have an average of 3 hitters in the lineup every game that don't have a realistic chance at the plate. Where's Andy Gonzalez and Luis Terrero going to bat?

1 hit through 5 innings...surprised? You can't put out awful lineups (on paper) and expect to win many games.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 10, 2009 -> 07:34 PM) Alexei continues to look clueless. I really would like to know what Jayson Nix did (or didn't do) to stop getting at bats. Another great string of ABs by our PATHETIC 8/9 hitters. What does Ozzie and KW expect this current lineup to actually accomplish?

QUOTE (shipps @ May 10, 2009 -> 07:32 PM) Last year I felt horrible about this team at times like I do now....but boy that Blackout game was fun. I am not any less confident in this team as a whole over the longhaul than I was at the start of the season. I think it's more frustrating this year cause of expectations from last year. Going into 2008, there were no expectations.

Cliff Lee vs Lance Broadway on Wednesday...any chance it rains?

The worst part about this is Hawk will blame that close pitch on Andrus as the reason we lost (if we do). It hasn't been a strike all game.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 10, 2009 -> 08:27 PM) i expect a response from this offense After Betemit, we have them where we want them. Alexei, Corky, Getz, and Lillibridge. BTW, I hope Ozzie didn't check the stats on Millwood and Padilla to decide who to play at catcher. Righties are significantly better vs Millwood, while lefties crush Padilla.

And Carrasco is warming up. Holy f***ing s***, we're going to see Broadway on Wednesday. This season has been very frustrating.

5-1 on a high chopper. Nothing's going our way, which makes it seem like we suck even more.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 10, 2009 -> 08:23 PM) Richard in. I'm telling you, the options after Contreras are a lot worse. They should just let him try it again. Richard, right now, is a significantly better option than Contreras. I know you're a Contreras fan, but he needs to go to the minors and get some confidence in his forkball.

It's the White Sox this year....everything they do they revert back on 2 days later. I wouldn't be shocked if Contreras is starting on Wednesday.

Sweet, so we just went down another run and likely losing any chance to compete on Wednesday if Broadway has to start.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ May 10, 2009 -> 07:17 PM) Coop said on the pregame this was the plan. He also said that Richard has not been decided on yet Ugh, so they'll use Broadway instead? No reason to pitch Richard in relief here and then have to use Broadway, as that's hurting us in a future game when we're likely losing today.

Wait, WHY IN THE f*** IS RICHARD WARMING UP? Goodness Ozzie, WTF is going on with you.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 10, 2009 -> 08:14 PM) I'm pretty sure Hawk is convinced there is an umpire conspiracy against the White Sox. It's been awful against the Sox, but I guess not a conspiracy since Ozzie hasn't been tossed yet.

And we're down 3-1 and it's about to be more. Omar with a flare that PK showed absolutely no range on. We suck

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 10, 2009 -> 08:11 PM) The sicker thing is he is hitting high in the order. If he was with the Cardinals, LaRussa would have him batting after the pitcher. I said earlier...batting him in front of Quentin is the worst managerial idea I've ever seen from Ozzie.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 10, 2009 -> 08:07 PM) If Lillibridge goes 7 for his next 28 with 4 doubles, 1 triple and 1 homer with 8 RBI, he will equal the production he had with Atlanta last year that got him sent back to AAA. With the Sox, its probably a contract buying out his arb years. It's ridiculous...he's not MLB caliber (he's not even AAA caliber). Yet, Ozzie keeps trotting him into the lineup, and his results are so damn predictable. I've never seen a player stay on a roster as long as he has who has absolutely no prayer at the plate. He makes me beg for Jerry Owens to play in CF.

That was an impressive homer. You can't be throwing him in that location.

Oh Jeff Suppan, you f***ing suck.

QUOTE (knightni @ May 10, 2009 -> 06:59 PM) That's two times he's been swinging for the fences. Just get on base, dammit! The pathetic thing is that with Pods wife giving birth, Loserbridge might play the next 2 games in Cleveland.

CQ just missed a rocket homer by a foot. 1 out double.

Loserbridge just missed that one.
