QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 17, 2015 -> 05:04 PM) He's making a lot of posters around here eat s***, that's for sure. You know I was tempted to say something along those lines but it's a long season and I take no pleasure in saying " I told you so" . But I do take great pleasure in how he's been playing

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 17, 2015 -> 04:19 PM) I don't know the embed code anymore but... I've got that on my ipod but the version I heard growing up was by Johnny Nash ,AM radio back in the day (1972)

Some times when you turn a corner you get hit by a bus.

QUOTE (farmteam @ May 17, 2015 -> 08:48 AM) The Ducks aren't known for that active a fanbase, are they? I thought that region was dominated by the Kings. There's plenty of fans for both teams especially when you're winning.

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 16, 2015 -> 11:49 AM) @CSNHayes: Adam LaRoche in May (45 PAs): .333/.511/.485 with a homer and seven RBIs. #WhiteSox Maybe it'll prompt others to stop calling him LaDunn and start calling him what LaRoche means in french and that's The Rock .

They be gellin" .

The Melk Man delivers !

QUOTE (fathom @ May 16, 2015 -> 07:52 PM) That ball bounced away incredible far from Vogt. He could have checked for a few seconds and still made it with ease. And it rolled right towards 1st base. Pretty hard to keep your eye on the catcher and the runner ahead of you at the same time.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 16, 2015 -> 07:45 PM) How did Avi not get to 2nd on that? You know you have to make sure the runner on 2nd is going before you can go .

Time to put Chavez out of his misery.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 16, 2015 -> 06:59 PM) Really JA.................AR trained well with the tip your cap line already in game 2. You can't watch baseball day after day year after year without hearing cliches time and time again . Why b**** about it ?

I don't want to hear any whining about Avi until his BA drops 50 points !

QUOTE (fathom @ May 16, 2015 -> 06:34 PM) He was on pace to shatter records for the worst defensive season by a 2nd baseman ever. I know you are his biggest fan, but he was really bad. Worst baserunning team in history , worst defensive second baseman in history , a mute 3rd base coach and a non hustling Alexei. Why torture yourself ? Go watch the Cubs.

QUOTE (Chris Sale @ May 16, 2015 -> 06:13 PM) Awful call to strike out Eaton. Abreu's ability to muscle inside pitches never ceases to imperss me, but I wish Cabrera and LaRoche tried a bit harder to work counts in their favor. Despite his batting average LaRoche has a pretty good on base percentage . He draws a fairly decent amount of walks and last night the count was 2-0 when he got that bases loaded double.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 11, 2015 -> 06:00 AM) Stop and think about this though, if Rodon is taking up a roster spot but is going 7-8 days between starts, that leaves us with a 4 man bench and a 6 man bullpen. Both of those slots can use an extra person but usually people go with the bullpen. You can make it work through short stretches but a 6 man rotation really means that you starters have to go 6-ish innings every game because you don't have enough arms in the bullpen to manage the normal wear and tear of guys needing days off and extra inning games. Looks to me like we do have a 4 man bench now and 7 guys in the pen . One of those pen guys will get spot starts either Noesi or Carroll. Basically the semi 6 man rotation I spoke of unless something changes.

HA WTF DirecTV jumped the gun on turning off the Sox game on CSN Chicago . Had to go to the Oakland broadcast just in time to see the replay of the final out . Whew dodged a bullet .

That's why I don't like head first slides. If a guy if going to block the base with his foot he should be spiked.

Sogaard is a pint-sized piranha.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ May 15, 2015 -> 09:51 PM) They did flash the bullpen stats of 2-10 with a 4.98 ERA. Hopefully Avi doesn't give this at bat away. Yea I saw that after I made the comment already. If you check the 2 nd page of the thread I had said I see more late inning heroics this game cuz I knew it coming in.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 15, 2015 -> 09:49 PM) Time to play America's Favorite Game...Avi clutch weak flare to the outfield Even better doncha think ?

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 15, 2015 -> 09:34 PM) OK this is when the Sox can get back in it. Oaklands bullpen is no great shakes. Ahem .

Glad they brought in A BAD reliever
