QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 10:10 PM) Hilarious. KC, a team that is horrible, is 1-1 against us at home this stand and could have won both games. Paulino, a hack, who was on the ropes, gives them a quality start and gets the win. What a team we have. f***ing joke. Fire.Everybody.Now. Rebuild, please. If Rodrigo Lopez can shut you down anyone can. Crappy pitching wins over crappy hitting.

Another divisional opponent, another loss. Need to find a way to score runs. The NL is no longer on the schedule.

f*** no place to put Viciedo with this ruthian lineup.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:52 PM) But not making Mike Jacobs money. Nor batting 3rd.

QUOTE (High Mileage @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:49 PM) Sup guys? Not our batting averages.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:41 PM) What's with Beckham's stance similar to Rioses? Why do these guys think that's a good way to bat?? Why does Lilly have a spread stance like rowand and Pablo. I bet it's just coincidence.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:39 PM) It'd be nice to rally past this KC team that is AWFUL on the road. Only so much of the balk/wild pitch magic you can muster. Sometimes you have to tip your cap.

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:31 PM) Dunno why Vizquel and Lilli are both playing in the same game, its either you sub for Rios or Ramirez, one or the other not both Why is one of our worst hitters batting in front of our best.

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:24 PM) how close was that from being gone? Well the hawk didn't give it a stretch or a get on back there.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:20 PM) This isn't like the beginning of the season where we were facing ace after ace. The Sox have faced some really mediocre starting pitching of late, and have very little to show for it offensively. The Rodrigo Lopez pitching clinic should prove that crappy pitching can shut down crappy hitting.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 09:16 PM) Beckham with a rare mistake on a play he usually makes about 90% of the time. Not an error, but he actually overran it. That was Quentins ball.

Carlos Quentin was a spectator there.

Well most teams put their best hitter in the 3 hole.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 08:27 PM) I'm just saying it's an odd time to start spouting off about how s***ty this team is when they put together a nice collection of 2-out hits/runs to tie the game up. They are 12th in the AL with runs with 2 outs and RISP. I am glad they had the two hits and we scored the 2 runs. We however leave a s***load of runners stranded over the course of the year. Watching our hitters over the course of the year watch fastball after fastball over the heart of the plate while swinging at stuff in the dirt is a bit counter productive for a sustained attack.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 08:15 PM) I'm going to take a wild guess and say you turned the game on right when The Bridge came up to bat. I am going to take a guess that this is your first white sox game this season if you thing this is the first time that happened.

So what the f*** is it with this team. We take fastballsdown the cock, then swing at s*** in the dirt. It's hard to drive in runners when you get it backwards.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 07:57 PM) Fangraphs. And that would be my worst nightmare and might force me to abandon this team. Bourn is a younger Juan Pierre that can play an above average CF. f***, I was just projecting. Let's not have the super slappy attack.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 07:55 PM) Where did this rumor come from? Blind speculation. He might be available and if you look at our recent draft picks, slappy track stars.

Kind of afraid that we will trade for Bourn. This way Ozzie can have his super slappy attack.

I would like to see Viciedo against Paulino. Thank god I get to see Vizquel bat though. Up on the edge of my seat when he comes up.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 07:41 PM) There's one! Paulino should be the perfect pitcher for our fastball hitting lineup. Just like Ozzie and his 2 outs man on first, he is going. We should never expect a fastball on 3-2. We act so shocked when we get the full count breaking pitch.

Funny, the teams in the AL seem to score more runs than the NL. Who would of thunk it.

QUOTE (Lemon_44 @ Jul 5, 2011 -> 05:55 AM) Rios is obviously dis-interested and dogging it this year. I've never seen a guy making about 15 mill look so unhappy. I tried to like Rios and thought he was avictim of bad luck because he was hitting the ball right at people. But it sure does look like he has shut it down. Would this be a feasible trade? Sox pick up a good chunk of Rios's salary and ship him and Danks to StL. for Rasmus. Am I under-valueing Danks and over-valueing Rasmus? Or both the Danks for Rasmus and just DFA Rios. The next few years an OF of Rasmus, Q, and Viciedo sounds good to me. Toronto got someone to bite on Vernon Wells contract, maybe the Sox can find a taker for Rios. First hire one of these.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 08:42 PM) Why does Teahen have a home run swing there? C'mon. FAIL. FAIL. FAIL. No way he was getting a 3-2 fastball. Disappearing slider. He is a member of the white sox. Late in games everyone goes hero.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 08:35 PM) anyone else get the feeling Sergio may be tipping his pitches and the Royals spotted it in scouting? More like he pumps in a first ball fastball pretty much every AB.
