QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 21, 2013 -> 01:42 AM) We just have to hope Axelrod dominates every start, so Santiago can get a chance to take his spot. Facetiousness ? Sarcasm ? Replace a dominant starter ?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 22, 2013 -> 12:57 PM) I stand by my stance that Dayan Viciedo is a wretched baseball player. Right now I'd take 9 regulars who all hit 25 HR's

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 22, 2013 -> 02:47 PM) Chicago White Sox ‏@whitesox 36m .@gordonbeckham says he is feeling good but isn't doing anything baseball-related yet. He currently is not feeling any pain in his wrist. He's also saying he wants to try to be back in 4 weeks but added he doesn't know anything.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 23, 2013 -> 06:52 PM) Just for giggles, why not lead off Gillaspie? Maybe go: Gillaspie, Keppinger, Rios, Konerko, Dunn, Ramirez, Danks, Flowers, De Aza Just mix it up a little. Mostly because no one is giggling . Kepp , Dunn 8th and 9th. DeAza, Alexei, Rios, Konerko, Gillaspie, Ramirez, Danks/Wise,Flowers Kepp, Dunn . Bunch up the hot hitters as much as possible. Dunn out against all lefties. At least Danks or Wise will run well and put the bat on the ball.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 23, 2013 -> 12:21 PM) I would bat him 7th or 8th until he showed he was worthy of moving back up in the order. He has hit a few balls well, something he did with even less frequency in 2011. If 2011 didn't happen, there is no way anyone would think he could possibly be this bad for an entire season. The Sox should keep playing him because their other options are no better. Just move him down and if he starts hitting, move him back. Carlos Zambrano might be a better option than Dunn at this point. Hit Dunn 9th where a pitcher should bat.

It's concerning that Ventura won't tinker with the lineup . Right now the hot hitters need to be bunched together .My crazy lineup below at least against righties DeAza Alexei Rios Konerko Gillaspie Flowers DanksWise Keppinger Dunn Yes Dunn is last. At this point switch hitting Carlos Zambrano is a better option than Dunn. Maybe Kepp and Dunn can get hot together. Submit your own if you want. edit: fixed

QUOTE (Disco72 @ Apr 23, 2013 -> 07:02 PM) So, it turns out RV didn't call the Rios steal with Dunn batting: http://m.espn.go.com/general/blogs/blogpos...mp;city=chicago Southsidesox mentioned it too.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 22, 2013 -> 06:53 PM) DA has filled in nicely. The guy doesnt have stuff but he knows how to pitch.

Gillaspie !! Hell yea . Way to bat Dunn 4th !

2 bloops a walk and a tight strike zone.

WINNNNNNNNNN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 21, 2013 -> 11:51 AM) Seaver was not on 83 team. Seaver came to Sox in 84. Thanks I remember him wearing the uni so knew it was close.

Diamond didnt throw a single strike to Wise.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 21, 2013 -> 11:41 AM) Or as Hawk likes to say, 14-26. The 83 team went 50-16 the final 66 games. This team has no chance of doing that. I'm sure they said that about the 83 team too early in the season. That team wasnt exactly filled with HOF's. Maybe Seaver ?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 21, 2013 -> 11:40 AM) So far Gavin is throwing great today, he just needs to lay off the cutter Seems like forever since the last time Gavin gave up 0 or 1 run in 7 or 8 innings.

Nice to know the 83 Sox started 16-24 and ended up winning 99.

Sox are pretty good considering we have a pitcher hitting cleanup.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Apr 19, 2013 -> 04:50 PM) We saw a tweet that said something along the lines of "Stiff Dickey wins...this story just wrote itself." might ve been my tweet where i said the same thing as in here.

This was an actual headline for the Edmonton Sun online after R.A. Dickey was pulled from the game with a stiff neck and the Blue Jays went on to win 3-1 that I thought you might want to share with your cave dwellers. Stiff Dickey pulled, but happy ending for Blue Jays against White Sox . Now if you're sports minded you might say "so what, it's just a normal headline." But carefully read the 1st 6 words.. Later they changed the title but I found the original title on a news feed I get of all online articles about the Sox.

QUOTE (Lillian @ Apr 19, 2013 -> 07:44 AM) They must 've changed it .The headline changed . Wussies !

No catch all so ....Stiff Dickey pulled, but happy ending for Blue Jays against White Sox Edmonton Sun 19:42 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 Happy ending too

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 18, 2013 -> 06:43 AM) http://www.southsidesox.com/2013/4/18/4237...ng-stance-video Looks Riosish.

Every time Dunn leads off an inning he should lay down a hard bunt toward third base. It doesn't even have to be along the line. Bunt it hard enough it's a double. I'd gladly take some singles and doubles from him.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 17, 2013 -> 11:40 PM) Exactly. If you want to say that Q is a better bet than Sale long-term because Sale's arm is more likely to fall off then, yeah, I guess. I could say Jimmy Butler is a better long-term bet over Rose due to the fact Rose no longer has a penis. Give me the risk of Sale/Rose pver Q/Butler anytime. Butler doesn't play point guard.
