Pretty good piece of hitting really. Had he swung and missed we would have said great pitch.

OPS is a vastly overrated statistic. Swisher's slugging doesn't mean s*** when he never hits. I also think his high OBP may be the reason he doesn't hit.

I'm sick of the people asking for Swish higher in the lineup. I want him OUT of the lineup.

I heart OC

Wow what horrible luck there.

QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Sep 1, 2008 -> 05:52 PM) Cliff Lee has to lose sometime right? right? Cliff doesn't have to lose, but the Injuns do.

Can't get it to load tonight, guess I'll stick to the game thread.

QUOTE (DABearSoX @ Sep 1, 2008 -> 11:51 AM) I wasn't tryin to criticize you...hahaha....if everyone stayed on the lines of the original post or title this place would be no fun.... Dang, now I can't get in a message board fight.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 1, 2008 -> 01:14 PM) What an epic match up between two pitchers who have each only lost 2 games all season! Wow!

We're the right kind of lineup to get him out of the game early, even if it isn't by virtue of run scoring. We can at least work his pitch count to get him out of the game before the game ends.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 31, 2008 -> 02:33 PM) That's how you tell we're winning. Unfortunately true.

Wow what a small gamethread today.

QUOTE (DABearSoX @ Aug 29, 2008 -> 08:55 PM) This is not a thread to ATTACK PEOPLE, or QUESTION WHAT THEY SAY. Threads in the filibuster with those rules don't go far.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 06:27 PM) Yeah, Pontiac is just up 55. This isn't exactly White Sox country. Not at all. We're few and far between.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 06:13 PM) Will we ever hit a changeup? Hey I see you're from Normal, we're about 40 minutes apart. I'm in Pontiac.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 06:15 PM) Kind of sounds like someone else too. I'm done arguing about stupid stuff like this. Sure it was my fault for bringing that up, but I didn't appreciate the "Duh" comment you gave me. I think we have a case of misinterpretation due to being on an internet message board and not being able to detect the tone in which posters are speaking.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 06:10 PM) Yeah, according to you he's going back to Cuba for the hurricane. That's a big stretch from his original question about whether Alexei would go back.

Hawk's experience in this game that amounts to 49 years.

Does anyone here know exactly what consitutes a simulated game?

QUOTE (MEANS @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 05:55 PM) it hit the wall first anyway. Would that play be reviewable? Should it be?

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 06:55 PM) My cable just went out for no reason, wtf? I'm sure you haven't missed much.

I know a lot of you have been wondering about his progress, so I thought I would post this from whitesox.com

QUOTE (DABearSoX @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 12:37 PM) Yea, I meant to write something about that. I really just mean express your views on the world. I really like how this is shaping up, it gives a reasonable explanation at why someone disagrees with what you say in another thread. I'm a little too tired to think clearly but that looks like you're criticizing me, I do realize I went off track from your original post.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 02:31 PM) As a REALLY young kid (probably aged 6-10) the best was 4-square. Man, we'd get some tournaments going. I'm trying to recall the rules in my mind.
