Okay Noah got raped there.

Why is Korver on the floor.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 22, 2011 -> 09:40 PM) I don't understand this at all...if you're going to put Korver in the game, give him the damn ball when he's open. They need to drive and kick it out to him. The problem now is they kick it out to the wings and the bulls hold onto it long enough for the heat to rotate over.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 20, 2011 -> 10:49 PM) Noppe. He should be batting eighth, but we have too many candidates for that. He is pathetic. Who made the lineup. Did he bat himself 3rd. Or did someone else put him in that position.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 20, 2011 -> 10:44 PM) See we look at things differently. As badly as Ozzie may have managed (I did call for his firing during that embarring, pathetic stretch) tonight, I look at it as he managed us into two outs nobody on and one run lead in the bottom of the fricking ninth. Now whomever told Sergio to throw that pitch that that weak hitting bastard pounded into the seats to tie the game, I blame. You guys get into other Ozzie stuff. I have no beef with Thornton starting that inning. s*** Crain did the job. Then Sergio appeared to be notching another 1-2-3 save. We'd all have been pretty happy with the efficient victory. But ... So looking considering Dunns struggles this year and the fact that a lefty was on the bump. Would you have bat him 3rd.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 20, 2011 -> 10:35 PM) Great first post. You post good stuff a lot. That is so true. Second post. My god. When are people on this board going to start blaming Dunn?? Is the guy ever going to do anything to win us a big game? f***ing ground ball in the 10th. 0-5. My god he is a worthless piece of dung. Dunn can't hit right now. I blame him for selecting the 3rd hitting spot in the lineup lottery to ensure lots of ABs. If we only had an authority figure on this team that had his finger on the pulse of who is hitting and say who hasn't had a hit against a lefty all year long. Someone who makes the lineup. Besides the players and the lineup lottery.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 20, 2011 -> 10:33 PM) Adam Dunn is a worthless piece of s***. But let's blame Ozzie for this one. Yup sounds good.

QUOTE (WHITESOXRANDY @ May 20, 2011 -> 10:30 PM) Sergio ? Hell no. The Sox pitchers have to be almost flawless for the Sox to win. When are these hitters gonna grow some balls? Or, is it all Greg Walker's fault? We need to wait for perfect weather with the wind blowing out.

Well tip your cap to Ted Lilly. It was amazing how he worked us over with no command or control of his pitches. After a tough inning he started to go to two mediocre pitches and let the sox bats do all of the work.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2011 -> 10:24 PM) Mattingly is just dominating Ozzie these last three innings. I think the drunk lady screaming at the players had a better grasp of the situation.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 20, 2011 -> 10:19 PM) You know the bunt sign came from the dugout. Then someone needs a remedial math course.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 20, 2011 -> 10:09 PM) Lady in the crowd - "I DARE you to hit a home run again! I double dare you!" Maybe she doesn't realize he could strike out on 3 pitches or hit a grand slam and it really wouldn't change the outcome of the game. Alcohol + peppermint patty = loud raspy drunk. Hopefully Marcy gets her home before she embarrasses herself.

I can't wait for inter league. You remember inter league started our magical run last year. 25-5. Fuse it is lit.

Hey now he should of rested the bat on the shoulder looking for the pitch over the plate to drive. Those silly little hits don't do anything. Better to strike out majestically that to score on a p**** oppo line drive.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ May 20, 2011 -> 09:54 PM) the 5.14 ERA of Kelly Jansen does not tell the whole story. He threw a ton of hittable pitches and that Sox did s***. Don't forget Ted Lilly, he tricked our hitters with those hanging pitches and the mediocre fastball. Tip your cap.

I love the shock when our players lay off close pitches late in games and get rung up.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ May 20, 2011 -> 09:43 PM) No evidence points to this. Evidence is he has fallen off physically. Why didn't he fall apart last year when he was given a career high in save opportunities? He is throwing 96/97 so physical is not the issue. It command of his pitches that's f***ing him.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ May 20, 2011 -> 09:39 PM) Santo, Crain and Thornton got his act together....we won't be sweating these 1 run leads. Or if our offense was consistent and put up some runs on a garbage pitcher.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 20, 2011 -> 09:24 PM) Blame the leadoff walk and Matt for sucking again. Not Oz. Ozzie only wins with decisions. Failure doesn't occur.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ May 20, 2011 -> 09:00 PM) I will continue to say that there is something in the way Walker works with LHH as they are incapable of hitting any type of LHP. Thome and now Dunn are easy examples. Hopefully Walk can get to work on the three practice swing Rios and getting him hitting....... The Sox at home swing from the heels and thus hit high fastballs and hangers in the air on the infield. Good luck with that.

I love watching the sox in pitching duels with hot garbage. A near 5 era in the NL and we are clinging to a 1 run lead based on beck's jack.

QUOTE (BearSox @ May 20, 2011 -> 08:56 PM) Rios really needs to fix his hands. They are too busy converting Beckham's stance and swing into Josh Fields. Plus everyone knows vets fix themselves.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 20, 2011 -> 08:54 PM) Correct. Instead of the sports psychologist we should invest in a hypnotist. Zap Guillen with common sense, a love of stats, the ability to develop kids, and love for al baseball.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 20, 2011 -> 08:51 PM) Longer than you think. So we bench young players for a few days for success and we punish the team by making sure we generate lots of outs from the top.

How long is it going to take before viciedo is in lf and Pierre is somewhere else. Nothing like handicapping your team with Jerry owens.
