Hope Dunn didn't jam his wrist there.

His name is Rios and he dances on the sand !!!

Tank gunned Smoak. Smoak got his spikes up.

Hmm might have to win this one ugly .

Got my 83 cap on in rally mode.

Runs now .

Donkey Kong !

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 7, 2013 -> 11:23 AM) Morse would look good in Sox lineup wish we would of kept him. He was available in a trade this past off season . It's just the Sox had no room for him since we were looking for LH bat not another RH.

Seems the Sox M.O. has been to pitch inside to Seattle. The inning Quintana got bombed he only used half the plate. Flowers has to change it up some.

QUOTE (Cali @ Apr 6, 2013 -> 02:32 PM) Re: Kepp.... I don't know if I ever recall a player who hit so well in ST, fall absolutely flat on his face when the bell rang. It's so jarring to see. At least we're not paying him like Josh Hamilton ,1/20 10 K so far . Pujols had 3 IBB's in front of him today Hamilton K'ed twice and FO.

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Apr 6, 2013 -> 05:29 PM) Nice to see we could get to the King. The King looked like a jester

Break it open Bacon.

It's 1 N in Conor guys

Blackhawks up 1-0 on other comcast channel

His name is Rios and he dances on the Sand !!

More bad D costs a run

QUOTE (Andrew @ Apr 6, 2013 -> 12:25 AM) I have style? I've wasted tons of sentences whining about the need to put $ and resources into the draft over the years. Our farm is a perennial joke. I was one of the original Greg Walker haters on this site, before he was FINALLY let go. This team is a long shot - ...this.....this.... is not a good Chicago White Sox team. At all. And it's stupidly expensive. And we have nothing to trade. We have to ride out albatross contracts (Dunn and Rios), it's frustrating to watch them, yet I love them because of their laundry. I really don't like the players on this team. Most of them...not very good baseball players. Don't get me wrong - I'll still root for them to the end...but I won't say stupid ass s*** like you do.... And, unless this is WSI, I should be able grieve that whatever style and "constructive criticism" I have to offer, is exactly NOT what the Sox are interested in implementing. SO you have a problem with optimism . All I said was the lineup wouldn't be changed the next day and it wasn't. Being right is stupid ? 2-0 is a perfect record is it not ? SO I was right about that. I could've gave reasons like it was only 2 games into the schedule so really no need to start platooning but instead I chose to enjoy my teams optimal record after 2 games. Guess that's the stupid ass s*** you have a problem with. It's not my fault you can't find enjoyment in something you love. I hope for your sake that you don't predict or expect failure from other things in life that you get frustrated with and claim to love. Gripe all you want just don't direct it at me and we'll be fine.

QUOTE (Andrew @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 11:14 PM) You don't mess with a perfect lineup. Perfection. PERFECTION, fellas! Not 11 hits, but 16 in 2 wins! And almost all runs scored from solo homers! Don't mess with PERFECTION. IT'S A GREAT NEW FORMULA..... and Ventura SHAN'T MESS WITH IT! P.S. - And yes; 2-2 is perfection as much as .....81-81 is perfection. Thank you Mr. Obvious Troll . The point was 2 wins and no losses was perfection obviously 2-2 is not. Is your point just to troll or do you have suggestions for the lineup ? Constructive criticism is respected. Your style is not.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 09:03 PM) 5.01 ERA after the ASB last year with his ERA getting worse every month over the course of the season. He was a great surprise last year, but he's definitely not a sure thing to stick in the majors unlike almost every other player on the Sox in a starting position (outside of Flowers). He did look great the first 4 innings, so hopefully he forgets about the 5th and pitches well next game. Axe easily gets that distinction since if Danks was healthy he'd be in the minors. Quintana pitched a lot of innings , way more than he had ever pitched before as did Sale. They both showed the wear and tear with second halves that didn't measure up to their 1st halves.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 08:57 PM) 2nd pitch looked like a pretty good pitch to hit. Something interesting with Flowers over the years is that he takes a ton of called 3rd strikes while at the same time swinging at a lot of 3rd strikes way out of the zone. Hopefully with more playing time, he'll show better plate discipline this year. No that pitch was like on the black low and away. And Quintana biggest question mark on the roster ? Really ? After how he pitched last year ?

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 08:54 PM) Nothing like a noon game the next day against Felix. s***. I think we see Gillaspie , Wise and Gimenez tomorrow.

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 08:54 PM) Not the best AB for TFlo to end it. Some positives, some negatives today. Trying not to get too wrapped up in early season stuff. Can't really blame him . Had to take the 1st pitch with the pitcher wild . 2nd pitch was aced outside corner.

Damn he would have to find his control with Flowers.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 04:27 PM) Sox win 9-8 in 10.
