QUOTE(briguy27 @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 08:27 PM) It amazes me how bad they are. But at least we want to give Ozzie a 4 year extension....excuse me while I go puke.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 08:27 PM) STOP PINCH HITTING CINTRON IN THE 9TH! WHAT THE f***! The Cubs ph D. Ward....we ph Alex Cintron. The cubs pr Pagan....we pr ?

It just amazes me how lifeless this team is.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 08:22 PM) Yes, a delicious 93-94 mph fastball with no movement. This should about do it for this current collection of White Sox members. I'd love to hear of a trade following today, but I guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow. I was watching Game 3 of the Red Sox ALDS last night on DVD, and there's no comparison between Jenks then and now. What in the hell has happened to his fastball?

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 08:21 PM) Suicide f***ing squeeze. It was a no brainer. How do you not throw a pitch out? The old, fun Ozzie would have thrown like 3 pitch outs in that sequence.

Ozzie's getting bent over by Pinella this inning....no big surprise.

Isn't it amazing what you can do when you have a good bench? QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 08:19 PM) If Williams were smart he'd deal Jenks before the beginning of 2008. Let me guess...93 mph so far?

What's the velocity of Jenks fastball right now?

So....it doesn't get much scarier than Aramis in this situation.

Fields has no chance against Wuertz.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 08:07 PM) What purpose does it serve? It's just completely irrelevant to our future. If people consider it a short term solution, which was essentially the term used in the rumor thread, I have to ask this -- what short term future does this team possess? We're not going to compete, regardless. Let Sweeney play. Don't delay his development. If anything, trade for Murton; someone not on the downside of their career. It'd make more sense with the lefthanders in the division. More because I hate the Cubs, and if we're going to suck, I don't want them to make the playoffs.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 08:06 PM) Is that an Ozzie crack or a Thome crack? Ozzie has no better option that Thome. Relax...just an issue I've had with Thome since he's been here.

Thome in a big situation against a lefty? Shocker!

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 07:58 PM) Your attitude will turn upwards immediately if Jacque Jones remains on the South Side. What an absolutely horrendous rumor. I think there's a great chance it happens. I could see us trading someone like Haeger for him.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 07:52 PM) Boonito! Just surrender the lead, already. Every victory between now and the inevitable fire sale will only provide false hope. Today and tomorrow are the final two games I'll really care about if we lose.

Reason #5,005 why Ozzie is a bad manager....Izturis hits almost 100 points better against righties than lefties this year, and he was already 2-2 against righties today. Well done Ozzie, well done!

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 07:48 PM) even Hawk sounded astounded that we brought in buk I'd rather see MacDougal, as sad as that sounds. Hell, let Logan start the inning.

QUOTE(Jim Spencer @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 07:46 PM) Should of left Andy in to bat Bringing in Mackowiak made it impossible for Pods to steal and get in scoring position. That was a situation where having an injured, usless player like Dye still on the roster hurts your flexibility.

QUOTE(briguy27 @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 06:54 PM) AJ hates the world What happened?

Iguchi continues his reign as the worst defensive 2b in baseball.

QUOTE(briguy27 @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 06:47 PM) 100% agreed. It's freaking 88 mph straight as an arrow fastball- hit the f***in' thing Hill does this to almost every team he faces....he's just very deceptive somehow. I remember getting ridiculed over the offseason when I said he's equal, if not higher, to McCarthy in terms of trade value.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 06:45 PM) Is Fields just an aberration? It's weird seeing a youngster come up and hit well. He actually has tools, which is a lot more than you can say about a lot of the prospects we usually call up.

It really amazes me that Greg Walker has a job still. We're now firing our scouting director, but the guy who's overseeing the worst hitting team in baseball is still employed. Did you know that Sammy Sosa has more homers than anyone on this team?

QUOTE(rafacosta @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 06:15 PM) Oh ok, because he tried to stretch a single into a double he is now a headcase??? Let the guy play...at least he is hustling.. No, it's because he makes a lot of mental mistakes on the field, and Grace, someone who's seen him play a hell of a lot more than any of us have, made it sound like a big issue with him. Don't get me wrong, Terrero's one of my favorite guys on this team to watch right now.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 23, 2007 -> 06:09 PM) I know what you're asking yourself: Why did Terrero force the issue right there? Well I can tell you. The guy has played in 28 games this year, has gotten on base around 37% of the time, has hit 5 HR and even stolen a base but he has still yet to hit a double. He just want himself a double. There's a reason Terrero is known as a guy with a million dollar skill set and a 10 cent brain. Even Mark Grace was going off on that two weeks ago.
