Pretty swing

Terrible break on the ball by Dayan but got lucky with bad base running.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 02:11 PM) He also swung at the first pitch back in October 2005. No one complained, if it is a good pitch to hit, swinging at it os fine Who was complaining?

I've already seen Paul swing at 2 first pitches this year, different role, different approach.

Bunt?!?!?

John's fastball still isn't what it used to be but he's keeping the ball down and he's just killing KC with his change.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 01:53 PM) A popout 2-3. I think the box score actually captures it perfectly. Ha I saw. I was confused watching in real time, didn't see how Abreu ended up with it.

What the hell just happened?

Ok that was bad, Jose.

Darn, wanted to see worlds tiniest catcher bat that inning.

Should have just rebuilt this team around who can hit Bruce Chen.

Nice to have a hall of famer and the MVP batting back to back to start this inning.

HAWK NO LIKE UMPS Rebuilding should have started with the booth. Edit: I've already complained about Hawk way too much this season. I'm sorry, I'll stop.

Konerko should probably be batting 5th today. And I'm completely fine with Viciedo platooning for now, either De Aza's or Dayan's value is going to sink while sitting so you might as well throw the best lineup out there.

QUOTE (whtsoxfan @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 10:30 AM) Sox are going to HIT this year. The pitching? Um, not so good... Everything that has happened so far this season will even out as we go. The hitting is not this good and the pitching is not this bad. Oddly enough, I think it'll result in basically what we've seen so far, a .500ish team.

Krush in 3...2...1...

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 4, 2014 -> 07:45 PM) WWE is telling people that all the tests have passed and they are well prepared for it. With MLB.tv having issues this week it definitely makes you think.

Austin doing more talking about Punk... Ok, I'll stop now. Anyways, how worried is everyone about the stream Sunday? I think a buddy and I are going to end up going to a bar just in case.

So tired of hearing Hawk slobber over Gordon.

Flowers is magic.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 08:03 PM) Do that many people actually watch those late night talk shows anymore? Judging from some people's reactions, you would think TV may never survive. I still watch Conan every night but feel like I'm one of the few.

Austin announced for Mania a day after he predicted Punk will be there. I know, I know, not happening but it gives me a teeny bit of hope.

We do know Adam Dunn hit a homer today, right?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 09:13 PM) IMO putting him in the 2 spot might make him press even more. I don't necessarily think that's true but I can buy that argument.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 08:53 PM) It'd be different if he actually hit the ball hard and went 0-10. Instead, he's popping up and striking out on pitches out of the zone. Like Jake said, he's not ready. I'm all for letting him play as long as Gordon can't, but he shouldn't be hitting second, one of the most important spots in the lineup. I'm surprised we've scored 12 runs so far with a big black hole in the 2 spot. It's 2 games. Every player in the major leagues has looked like crap for 2 straight games. He could be pressing and one hit could turn that around. I obviously don't know that but you can't tell me he's not ready because of 2 games.
