While DV's walk rate hasn't really risen, he's gotten more selective. He's swinging at less bulls*** that results in soft contact and his two strike approach is notably different...I haven't looked to verify but it seems like he just doesn't strike out anymore. If DV has two more weeks like his previous two, he'd make the damn All-Star team. That's crazy. I hope he has a lot more runs like this throughout his career.

It would really surprise me if we don't at least contend to the end, provided we stay pretty healthy. Even when we weren't playing well, I could see that this was possible. I don't think guys like DV and GB are going to sink to sub-MLB levels again. I also expect the rotation to get better as Danks heals up and Philip and Gavin get things back together.

This board is conspicuously optimistic

I can't stand Ed Farmer and it just ruins the radio broadcast for me, especially since DJ has little to offer as far as describing the game or interacting with such a moron. I was very sad to see DJ go since it did seem like he and Hawk had finally got things rolling. I've liked this run with Wimpy but there is a certain blandness to him. Not so much that he doesn't have personality, but that he doesn't say much of substance. This may just be because he's been out of the booth and doesn't follow the White Sox though.

It's really hard to turn strong emotion into results in baseball. It almost always is counterproductive.

s***, if Tank doesn't want to slow down he could make a very improbable run at an All-Star spot

Tanks

Wouldn't shock me if AJ gets drilled

QUOTE (Baron @ May 29, 2012 -> 08:22 PM) Right...I mean you have some guys hitting average. But then just massive holes follow those guys. Hard to win with that. But they have been They haven't been in need of many runs to win

Without PK hitting, this offense can't score

he gawn!

Paul Konerko is such an all-defense, no bat player EDIT: fuuuuuu fathom

This team has really been coming through...it's nice.

I'd venture to guess that we will win this game.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 29, 2012 -> 07:54 PM) I think you all meant Tanks. Him and Sales are the future of this organization. Reminds me of that legend, Kerry Woods

f*** yeah!!!

Dayan Viciedo folks

AJ used to be so useless with men in scoring position

Well, they found Paulie's hole

Would really like to see Phil stay away from the middle
