QUOTE(zygoat @ Sep 6, 2006 -> 09:39 PM) besides rogers, none of the tigers pitching scares me, but 3 or 4 twins starters scare me im afraid of bonderman

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 08:50 PM) How many double plays in the last month? fathom you know as well as i do that the GIDP is not something new for konerko....its plagued him his whole career....as for the original poster in this thread...konerko isnt the one to blame...in fact id like to praise konerko for his remarkable consistency this year, konerko is not the one to blame...if you are gonna get on players...get on uribe podsednik and pierzynski

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 07:39 PM) Bench Iguchi. That's just terrible fundamentals. I love how Crede can't hit a fly ball in a fly ball situation, when he's been the king of pop ups lately. he didnt get teh job done, but im not gonna fault him too much for the swing he put on that ball

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 07:35 PM) Thatt'a boy Sweeney. im convinced hes better than pods

QUOTE(beautox @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 07:30 PM) X9

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 07:26 PM) This is absolutely pathetic baseball. I still can't FATHOM how we manage to play so many s***ty guys, yet Gload can't find a way into the lineup. He's about the only one giving consistent tough at-bats. pierzynski is as much to blame as any player....hes been horrific in the second half

woah...if only vazquez didnt hang that thing 4 outa 5 times thrown...that last one was nasty

kason gabbard is throwing a perfect game through 3

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 04:45 PM) Good for Hermy! He's really worked his ass off to get back. Here's hoping it is worth it for him. dustin hermanson, to this day, is the biggest unsung hero of the 2005 white sox....no he didnt do anything down the stretch and in the postseason, but people forget that this guy had 34 saves, and converted like 24 of his first 25...while shingo had 6....so dustin coulda ended up with 40 saves for us...not to mention not giving up a run in his first 24 innings or something....just saying as far as regular season heroes go from last year...dustins right up there

QUOTE(Texsox @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 08:03 AM) Critical game, why not give a start to a AAA guy. the one positive i can think of is that sweeney almost certainly faced gabbard before in the minors

QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 09:40 PM) I am not agreeing with him but this team needs to show that it actually wants to win. A subtle thing, in Friday's game when podsednik grounded out to start the 9th, he took one step past the bag and turned to the dugout. If a player is running hard he should be through the bag and to the outfield grass. This team appears to have no heart whatsoever. I want to think they do and keep telling myself they do but I just do not see it. I see no hustle, plenty of wasted at bats. By wasted at bats I mean 2-0 pop ups and 1,2 or 3 pitch at bats. Not making the pitcher work. The silver lining in all of this is that there is less then four weeks left to have to watch the worthless piece of s*** that is scott podesednik and his tiresome sidekick juan uribe. i got no problem with anyone calling our team out for just about anything...i got a problem with sox "fans" giving up hope when we are .5 games out of the playoffs

QUOTE(ive stopped believin @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 09:25 PM) To put it in tennis terms (in honor of the U.S. Open) Game. Set. Match. Season. It's over im as pissed off as anyone about the absolute goddamn sh*tty way we have been playing and all these bullsh*t losses we've been goign through...and the fact that forking freddy garcia can't hold an opponent to under 5 runs....and every other thing that has been going wrong......but if you are cashing in the chips on this season, and actually call yourself a real fan then as far as im concerned you can stop believing and go jump on some other team....f*cking a..we are a half game back with 3 against minny still left and you are giving up...people like you give real sox fans a bad name

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 09:21 PM) McCarthy deserves some criticism...he's been real bad this year in close games. It's just such a waste of a season for him, and he's not a reliever with his stuff. plain and simple....mccarthy needs to use his offspeed stuff, something he hasnt done his last few games and hitters have been sitting on his fastball in and pounding it...

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 09:18 PM) I know this is going to cause an outrage, that isn't my intention. Was that the first pitch and did it just curl around the foul pole or was it hit out convincingly? it was gone anywhere...and it was the 4th pitch

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 07:00 PM) Garland's looking pretty strong but already at 50 pitches or so. These bastards have a way of working the count. 12-1 3.01 ERA coming into this game in his last 14 starts or something teh red sox announcers just said....wed be at least 5 back if not for him

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 06:54 PM) Freddy Krueger looks like Cy Young against our terrible offense these days. so would freddy garcia....wait....haha who am i kidding...hed still get rocked

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 06:50 PM) Tavarez is breezing through this line-up. This is unreal its been 8 batters...take it easy

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 06:49 PM) Red Sox and Yankees have a bunch of power hitters. Their hitting is fine. We need to upgrade SS and LF, maybe get a new hitting coach. greg walker would probably be the first hitting coach ever to be fired after the team lead the league in AVG HR...and they even have a chance to lead in runs

pimp any home run with tavarez out there....itll get in his head

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 06:29 PM) Paulie and the rest of our pull monkeys should take a peek at what Manny did right there. 2 strikes, man on first, pitch away. He stays back and hits it up the line to right. .........

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 06:34 PM) It went past him first, and then hit the bag. oh ok, im watchin mlbtv and its the bosox broadcast and i couldnt see a good angle

QUOTE(BearSox @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 06:32 PM) No way. Gload has much more range, and can make all the picks he can. Gload is underrated defensively. i agree that gload is better and has more range, but i think pauly picks it better....plus the problem with gload is that he plays so infrequently at 1b that its hard for him to pick our guys cuz hes not used to playin with em

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 06:29 PM) PK with no range on that play...he should have got a glove on it. didnt it hit the bag and skip over his glove?

god i hate the red sox

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 02:17 PM) So Boof Bonser and Scott Baker have had a better start this week than anyone not named Jon Garland on the Sox rotation in about a month. has it only been a month? goddamn rondell white has 5 HR all year, and in the last week 2 of them have been big go ahead homers
