QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 04:01 PM) I really, really, really hate winning the first two games of a 3-gamer and dropping that last one. I really, really do. I'd rather win one, lose one, win one, or lose one, win two. We used to do this with the Cubs all the f***ing time and I hated it. After winning two games and losing one, I always feel like I won two games and lost one. DET will switch places with you if you hate it.

There's a lot to like today more so than yesterday. Difficult to separate the things that irritate from the things that may matter. T-Flo Beckham are the things to watch intently, not our fielding. I'm not going to go insane over what thus far is a real small sample size in the field

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 03:51 PM) So far in this 9th, every ball swung at has been out of the zone..... Closers benefit from pressure filled free swinging. The guile/gumption closers have is sooooo overblown when you consider some natural advantages they get coming their way instead. Knowing your role day in day out, is another.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 02:51 PM) Watching the game and thought it was something people would be interested in. Really now shouldnt we be moving a lot of this to the catch-all?

While I agree late-in-season games shouldnt be weighted in importance, isn't the scoreboard-follow just a little early here?

Anyone want to fill us in?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 02:19 PM) It'd be nice to have a lefty bat to spell him once in a while. Like a Teahen type who is actually good. Who will be Keppinger's sub this year? I like his defense. Gillaspie has a proven minor league track record at the plate.

QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 02:11 PM) God does Dunn SUCK. That ball was not even close........................ Dunn's whole schtick can't be shocking after two years seeing what he is daily. Also there was no ban on televising Nats games the years prior, either.

This thread is great at reminding me that some guys go 2.5 games without hits sometimes. Film@10.

We're the white sox. The league will go back to ignoring us any day now, I'm sure.

So Gillaspie playing anything but 3b and 1b is just totally out, I take it?

Has Robin said whether he'd be agreeable to occasionally moving Keppinger to 2b and getting Conor at 3b so they can both be in certain games? Those are the guys we'd want in against tough righties? Not Beckham or Sanchez.

Yay Offense-Viciedo!!

Was surprised to read that, in 2012, only three teams were more likely than the White Sox to have their baserunners score (including both RBI and non-RBI results)

The Matt Lindstrom sox era was one of the darker eras in history Whole different era than the Octavio Dotel era, Stone Pony

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 03:05 PM) So is Viciedo in the corner with a dunce cap on? He'll be there til the arrival of their roving instructor freshly hired off Rutgers b-ball program

Can we find some way to stabilize OBP like the Youk acquisition during the year? Would be a shame to have no one on base for all this (potential) power in the lineup. Gillaspie or Carlos S.?

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:32 PM) I think he was just more pissed that he embarrassed himself that he faceplanted and looked like a big dumb stupid. bulldogs were made to faceplant. the face's flatness is their evolutionary trait

QUOTE (Cali @ Apr 3, 2013 -> 02:28 PM) Hawk's worst home run call by far haha.. Youve already combed thru the 8 decades of calls?

Suddenly you're forgiven

catch-all's great.
