QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 10:07 PM) And you're probably also find 25 positive comments from me as well. Not even close actually. Not about the Sox anyway.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 10:01 PM) 2006 says hello. fathom is nowhere near the most negative poster on this board. Ok find me 25 negative Sox comments from any other poster in tonights game thread and I'll believe you.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 10:01 PM) Aren't you supposed to be planning the White Sox World Series parade? I thought you and sin city were on that committee. You didn't want to take a guess ? C'mon give it a shot.

The over/under on Fathom's negative Sox comments tonight is 25 . Any takers ?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 07:54 PM) It's funny how I expected us to win pretty much every game against the NL teams (even though at one point I said we weren't capable of sweeping anybody this year), and now I also expect us to get beat up by Texas. Hope we compete well but if we can't win 2 of 3 from KC how we gonna do it against Texas?? Cuz baseball is a funny game.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 04:50 PM) My name is Jordan4life, and I'm retarded. Anyway, I still think we're going to get waxed. Let it be known if there's any waxing to be done it will be by the Sox.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 07:22 PM) lol this is what happens when a guy with 54 posts starts a GameThread. No offense. let the rookie hazing begin.

dadgummit !

You can put it on the board.. Yes !!!

chopper 2 hopper

Perfect pitch Peavy !

I always wondered why both runners get credit for a stolen base on a double steal . Logically you can only throw out one of them.

Gift from Guillen and Getz.

Billy Butler blast bomb BOOM !

I was a little worried about that pop up since reading about how DV might have a depth perception problem and the SS usually takes the popups.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 06:02 PM) Talking about Beckham Hasn't it been like 3 yrs since he used one ?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 05:53 PM) Fastball on the inner half...which is the pitch he's really struggled with this season. He has to realize he's not using an aluminum bat anymore. When has Viciedo used an aluminum bat ?

I'll take that kind of funk from Vizquel and Rios

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 28, 2010 -> 09:34 PM) I honestly think if Steve Stone wasn't employed by the sox org., he would definitely be saying something about Ozzie and the lack of playing time for Dayan, like he did with Sweet Lou and Colvin. I mean it is probably killing him now to stay quiet about it. Perhaps, but Stone probably thinks the Cubs are out of it so therefore should have a long look at Colvin who has produced pretty good in his limited playing time. The Sox were on a roll when DV was brought up so you don't mess with a streaking team. Maybe if DV had and many AB's as Colvin when Stone made his comment and his production was just as good and the Sox were out of it Stone would say the same thing. But the situations are different so merit a more cautious approach.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 07:06 AM) Threets is not a prospect. He's a 28 year old left handed reliever who has bounced around the minors for a good amount of time now. Still, he's never been up with the Sox before and with his great minor league numbers perhaps a bit of an introduction is needed for those with less knowledge of the Sox minor league system.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:28 PM) Let's finish the month with Randy Williams being sent down. What do you say? Don't we usually see a separate thread in the important topics section when a prospect is called up such as Threets ?

I don't know weather to be happy or sad with those stats. You're pointing out the Bacon has a chance to have a gang buster 2nd half, which is good. OTOH you're comparing him to Joe Crede which in and of itself is not a bad thing. Many of us were hoping he had a higher ceiling and every game he doesn't hit makes us wonder if he'll ever be even as good as Crede. God, I hate sophomore slumps.

Just goes to show what happens when closers can't get saves. Booby still gets saves and still gets a lot of grief.

This is aimed at Coolmanjoe. If the Sox do get Dunn you know Viceido will be part of the deal. That's why he's up here, to show he's ML ready . He can then replace Dunn at 1st for the Nats .
