QUOTE(Heads22 @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 03:58 PM) Brian just earned himself a bench spot. Heads lefty on the mound on Monday Brian starts. Verlander on the mound on Tuesday pretty much puts Brian on the bench. Yet Uribe and his free swinging crap approach will be out there.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 03:57 PM) SSI...did you notice that the A's had a pull shift on for AJP? I would do that on him, and put the same thing on for Kong. That plus pitching low and away would really put this offense into the crapper.

Uribe is not a streaky hitter. He is a crappy hitter. The only thing that has happened over the last few years, is that Uribes BA has plummetted down.

Nice double for Anderson. 3 doubles in 2 games for BA.

Nice DP.

Bmac is up.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 03:49 PM) Looks like I spoke too soon, as it's only a cramp hopefully. Haeger is warming up in the pen. He's staying in the game...good to see it's not a serious physical injury. Now a smart team would bunt him off the mound. Just as I am typing.

I feel like I am at a Brazil vs Venezuela soccer friendly with the horns, bongos, cow bell and the rest of the clown garbage you get in Oakland.

Page me when Thome does something in September that helps the ballclub. Low and Away and we dont even swing anymore. Walker what do you get paid for. the entire pitching universe has figured out how to exploit your rob deer lift and pull offense. Can you go back and start trying to get the line drive swings back.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 03:36 PM) Frank's contract negotiations this offseason should be interesting. Yeah thats when smiling happy Frank goes away. Cha Ching!!!!! I wish they would stop pimping that crappy mi manera series.

Baltimore is up 12-8 in the 10th.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 03:33 PM) He never does. He has no baseball instincts. He face plants into 2nd, and then lies there like a dead dog instead of looking up to spot the ball.

Prancer cant advance on a ball thrown into centerfield.

DJ has loved watching Pods this year. I guess the bar has been set low.

Pods and Uribe should be sitting right next to each other on the bench. Cintron should be starting, and a Mack/Gload mix over at LF.

I know that we couldnt say he would throw the same pitch in the same situation, but after watching that Dong Cora can go f*** himself.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 03:20 PM) Why would you send him? Everyone knows Kotsay's arm is strong as hell and that ball was popped shallow. And I know AJ isn't good at drawing walks but the bases are still loaded and Blanton didn't have great control there. The dimunitive latin Waving Wendell will give you some sort of stupid line of it takes a perfect throw, and a perfect relay....blah blah bulls***. Well I have never seen so much perfection from the opposition as I have seen this year then. I mean runners getting thrown out by 45 feet has been seen a few times this year. Cora is a bad bad third base coach.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 03:17 PM) I hope KW has enough balls this offseason to tell Ozzie Cora cannot coach 3B. Can he tell Walker the same thing. Crede got beat on a slow curve on the outer half that he sort of jabbed at. Cora sends another runner to his death at home. And one of Walkers right handed hitters gets pwned on a low and away pitch. Guess what, watch how many more of our right handed hitters get pwned with low and away all day.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Sep 17, 2006 -> 12:25 AM) Why is it so hard to realize Ozzie does not make up the roster. He uses the guys provided to him by Kenny Williams!!! Think he wants to put in Boone Logan??? You guys sometimes act like Ozzie is the do all. He didn't make up this average roster; KW did! I guess that is why Mack continues to play in CF. We have 2 count them 2 options better than Mack in CF. Who gets the starting nod more often than not. A corner OF. That is not on KW, that is on Ozzie.

This should be our marketing video for the 2006 Whitesox team.

Can someone teach one of our hitters how to hit a f***ing curveball. Ryan hits the ball to left field, god bless him.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 05:46 PM) HEY, as several members would say, you can't compare us to Minnesota. Their too good at producing minor league pitching! 29 OTHER TEAMS WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THEIR BULLPEN!!111 Ignore the fact their within our division, will have a far superior team over the unforseeable future, and still have a minor league system far and beyond ours. So this year will be another year where we will pick a pitcher who can barely break a plane of glass with his fastball, and they will pick up some stud who will be throwing 97 and destroying us for the next 4 years.

Why in the name of all that is holy is Sandy Alomar JR batting in this game. We have 3 count them 3 catchers Ozzie.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 05:39 PM) Yeah, I wish Ozzie would start throwing strikes. Blow out on the way. This is laughable at best. So you take a guy who was throwing the ball around the strikezone. And you put in a guy who just came off some time off for a sore arm, and had an MRI. Then after he f***s up, you put in a rookie who hasnt thrown a strike in forever. Sure its all about the pitchers making pitches. our season hinges on the execution of pitches by boone logan, and Hermy. f***ing LOL

QUOTE(WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Sep 16, 2006 -> 05:37 PM) We bring in a guy who hasn't had any control all year with the bases loaded. And now we go to a guy who's back is falling off. Game f***ing over. You have to love when a moron of a manager decides to bank our season by pulling a guy throwing 97 and missing by inches and then brings in 2 guys who have had hard times throwing strikes. Then brings in a guy who has a bad back. Drop dead ozzie.
