fathom

We have to stop letting the better hitters on the opposition beat us when there's an open base and 2 outs.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jun 10, 2008 -> 10:09 PM) I never said JUST Gallagher, I said they would want Gallagher, along with probably Pie, Smardajiza, and Vitters. Many people expect Smardaijza to give up baseball in a year or so.

QUOTE (DBAH0 @ Jun 10, 2008 -> 07:37 PM) Replace Uribe or Ozuna with Chin - Lung Hu. Ugh, he's the worst player in baseball this season. The guy looks like a mediocre hitting pitcher.

QUOTE (DBAH0 @ Jun 10, 2008 -> 12:19 AM) Seriously, since the end of 2005 has this been the best week to be a White Sox fan over the past 7 days? I don't know, the 2006 games against the Cards and Astros were pretty awesome.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 9, 2008 -> 11:56 PM) After the winning streak and whipping the Twins, The Danks news, and now this... consider my jeans creamed in. Seriously, fantastic stuff

This is fantastic news, as they've gone from an agent that we can't deal with to our favorite agent. I heard a nugget from Baseball America today that anytime a team drafts a player with their first pick on the 2nd day of the draft, and that player was supposed to be a high pick in the draft, it almost always means they've negotiated and know a deal can be reached.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Jun 9, 2008 -> 09:37 AM) So one of my buddies who goes to UGA just informed me that Beckham "slays puss like no other..." , thought it was kinda funny It's official, his nickname has to be slayer.

Talk about your pleasant surprises...go to a meeting when they're down 3, and return to see there's one out left to go. Great f***ing win!

It would be nice to have this be the day we make a late inning comeback.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 9, 2008 -> 08:34 PM) Danks needs to learn how to get himself out of some of these jams. You can't play matchup all the time. Kubel hits a robust .171 against LHP...ugh

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 9, 2008 -> 07:43 PM) The only change I have see so far is he seemed to have backed off the plate a bit more. He used to be right on top of the plate. That would explain why his HBP total is way down over the last few weeks.

How's the forecast looking? It's raining like crazy in Hoffman Estates.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 9, 2008 -> 08:34 PM) Danks needs to learn how to get himself out of some of these jams. You can't play matchup all the time. You can still try to get out of jam with him facing a lefty instead of Cuddyer, who always seems to come through against the Sox in those situations.

What a horrible, horrible decision to face Cuddyer with an open base and a lefty up next.

QUOTE (Cali @ Jun 9, 2008 -> 12:07 AM) So I don't watch college baseball, but Im watching the end of LSU vs. Irvine right now on ESPN waiting for BBTN, why does the home team bat in the top of the inning? Or do they just switch off who's home and who's away no matter the stadium they play in? Either way it makes no sense. I thought LSU had a walk-off win... They switch off cause of the best of 3 format. The crowd is electric in this game.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Jun 8, 2008 -> 11:56 PM) 2 dingers today.......nice. And we get to see him next week in the CWS. I can't believe I'm rooting for UGa.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jun 8, 2008 -> 09:33 PM) hows the forecast looking? Farmer and Stone said there's about 45 minutes left in the window for no rain. Has anyone heard something different?

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jun 6, 2008 -> 03:31 PM) What is the over/under on Chipper Jones getting hurt before next week when the Braves come to town and if he does play, chances he goes 1-12....see Lance Berkman when the cub played Houston. Great prediction....ugh!

Um, wow! $$$$$

Nice to see a flare for Swisher.

Wainwright hurt his finger tonight. Let's hope it's not like what Ben Sheets had.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 8, 2008 -> 01:29 AM) Thomellujah. Get BA an atbat tonight. Let Uribe get an AB also

Something seems very fishy with this whole thing. No one can find anything wrong with Big Brown, and considering the money they're going to get for his stud fees, you have to wonder if this was planned out IN CASE he wasn't going to win.

OC with a 2 out double with 2 in scoring position! Awesome!

Ramirez continues to impress the hell out of me!
