South Side Fireworks Man

Sox just gave up an out so the Twins can pitch around Paulie and then strike out Dunn.

No bunts!!!!!

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 05:11 PM) I wouldn't want to manage this team either. Playing the Twins is always a nightmare. The Sox need a manager that's man enough for the job.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 05:08 PM) Viciedo is not in the lineup for Charlotte in the first game of their doubleheader. If he's not in the lineup for game 2, then we'll know something. I heard he was just penciled in at Catcher for game 2.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 05:05 PM) A broken hand could be a blessing in disguise. Why not see what Flowers can do -- again? Flowers can't do much.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 05:03 PM) Why not just get tossed? f*** it. Oh wait, no, don't do that. The team will need your leadership and baseball knowledge into these late innings. lolz Ozzie doesn't care about the Sox anymore. His heart is in Florida.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 05:00 PM) I really liked Morel coming into this year and even through the first two months. But at some point, you have to make adjustments and he seemingly is incapable of doing that. Both Morel and Beckham would probably benefit from a different hitting coach. I don't see either one making the adjustments to be successful with Walker here.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 04:50 PM) Quentin the only thing that can happen on an appeal is you get struck out, you cant gain, what are you doing? I wonder if any White Sox coach ever explained that to him.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 04:44 PM) I must have missed the memo. When did Viciedo break his thumb? About 2/3 of the way through spring training.

Still the same ol' Thome.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 04:24 PM) Let's get creative. Forget corpseball. Let's think of a new name for this. "Ozzie-ball".

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 04:19 PM) At least we don't ever hear anymore "Ozzie would never let his guys not hustle on the field and play with passion". We used to hear that all the time when comparing him to Manuel. The effort on the field is way worse than anything we saw during the "corpseball" era. Man, have you got that right!

Bye bye, Ozzie!

LOL at the "face of the franchise"! What a joke.

QUOTE (SouthSideTeacher @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 04:12 PM) /went to the teacher store to pick up stuff for my bulletin boards today. Got all excited when I saw a White Sox pennant and banner set. (I've always wanted to devote a corner of my 6th grade room to my team--maybe send some subliminal messages and inspire a new generation of South Side fans.) 30 seconds after I put the $25 set in my cart and started to walk toward the cashier, I thought about the bull**** laughter and joking I witnessed last night in the Sox dugout after ANOTHER loss to our rivals. If they don't care anymore, neither will I. I put that mess back on the shelf. "Giving up the KoolAid, 101". Good for you!

QUOTE (ottawa_sox @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 04:11 PM) When it wasn't required. You could say that again.

Beckham has the worst looking swing on the team.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 01:40 PM) Ozzie being fired would be the most exciting Sox thing for me since the WS. No exaggeration. I'd even start going to games again.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 9, 2011 -> 11:17 AM) FWIW, Peter Gammons was on a Boston radio show this morning and said he expects Ozzie to be fired during the ASB. He said he may be managing the Marlins in a week and also mentioned KW knows his ass is on the line as well. From Gammons' lips to God's ear!!! Please be true!

Danks and Rios for Granderson.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 12:15 AM) They were the same two guys last season saying Adam Dunn is a necessity for this team. And the year before saying the same about Chone Figgins.

There needs to be some major changes made before the beginning of the four game series with the Twins tomorrow. Bring up Viciedo for sure. Make a trade, fire a coach or two, shuffle around the player's roles. Get Dunn the hell out of the three spot. DO something NOW or this season is over. And stop slobbering all over the Twins! Kick their asses for once!!!

QUOTE (onedude @ Jul 6, 2011 -> 12:37 PM) I dunno if he sees himself being one in the future, but I think he would make a really good manager. He'd make a good manager, but if he doesn't want to go that direction, I think he would also be great in the broadcast booth. He comes across very well in interviews and he certainly knows baseball as well as anyone.

I hope Teahen hits one of those opposite field HRs right about now.

Frickin' Beckham already!
