QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2008 -> 08:20 PM) I better not hear this as an excuse, especially after Jose last season being given a free pass. where did he get this "FREE" pass? If I remember correctly, most whitesox fans, and especially on this board were helping in the effort to build a raft to ship his ass back to Cuba. Organization excuse?? Nobody even knew about his divorce until the season was over, and even still, that's nobody's business but his own. It's like people expect him to win every time out, otherwise chopping block. He's old. He sucks. Trade him. Then fans forgot he won 16 in a row and continues to be a reliable pitcher when he became the backbone of this rotation early on this year. ETDB will be fine people.

who was May's player of the month?? I assume CQ since he's been up there since late April, but with this site never doing this before, wasn't sure if thie was an every other month type of thing.

Dopplar not looking too promising right now.... I'm sure we'll get this game in, but I rekon there is gonna be some delays.

EL TITAN DE BRONZE regains his form today! Allow yourselves to gain sweet revenge White Sox! ....hopefully Mother Nature cooperates accordingly.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 09:17 AM) PS Rose is supposedly throwing out the first pitch today, it'll be kinda cool to see him rocking a Sox jersey. Awesome... I gotta make sure I get outta the office early now. This is gonna be a sqeeze play day

this place has more lives than the energizer bunny... I just wish there was somewhere more decent to go within a couple blocks of the park that's not the Bullpen Bar. The Miller Light Bombers are frosty and tasty there though

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 03:23 PM) What happened to get him tossed? I think Coop is PMSing though, as he was an ass on the Score earlier today. He thinks Beasley has more upside potential.

Unreal. Gameday shows every single of the 7 pitches that Crede got at the knees. Scouts must be licking their chops when he comes up to the plate. Joe Joe is more inconsistent than this entire team.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 04:06 PM) I hope Floyd can get back to being a consistent as a winner soon also I hear what youre saying, but Floyd kinda spoiled us with all those near NO-NO's early on. Not every performance can be comepletely dominating... we knew the long ball would catch up with him a bit. He just lost his first start over his past 6 last night....

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 26, 2008 -> 04:04 PM) Danks is one of the best young pitchers in the game right now. What a steal. No doubt. I pinch myself everytime I think we just gave up BMac (Spring Training CY Young) for this guy.

Damnit, that free pass is probably gonna keep Danksy from going another frame. Not saying that Ozzie would have let him go out there again anyways... as consistent as Danks has been, he needs to get a lot more economical with these pitch counts.

GO PADRES!

We rely on Linebrink too much... 2nd walk off this month. SUCK.

I think we'll see Juan at 2B tomorrow with Sexy-time playing CF.

RACK 'EM UP!!!!

QUOTE (Gregory Pratt @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 02:20 PM) ... I am so glad we're winning. Man, Danks rocks. I just hope we can close this game out and win this series tomorrow and then sweep it Sunday. easy there buddy... one at a time, one at a time. We still got 3+ to get through today.

filthy fastball from Danksy to K DeRosa.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2008 -> 11:08 AM) Becoming a true member of the White Sox community permanently: Step 1: Bash Wrigley Step 2: Step up and destroy the Cubs for a few games Step 3: Perform in October and get a nice, shiny ring out of it. John, you've covered step 1, step 2 is in about 2 hours. Step 1/2: Fire Scott Boras....check.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 19, 2008 -> 02:55 PM) Hate to say this, but Thome is hot and needs to play against the Cubs. He needs to play 1B tomorrow. Against Lilly?? Give him a day and start him Saturday against Marquis

Pablo's donkey! We WILL win this game.

After the 16 run outburst last night... just don't get shut-out. That would be too predictable.

I figure the Pirates owe a few victories with the Todd Ritchie deal... About that time we start a new streak

A ROW!

From some of the articles I am reading, this seems like its gonna be a lot longer than a simple 15 day stint for Paulie, but reading through this thread it seems like most people are taking it for granted that it will only be 15 days.... Any rhyme or reason to the projections?

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jun 16, 2008 -> 10:05 AM) can you estimate what the boos to cheers ratio was Easily 70%-30% Boos to Cheers. Embarrasing is really kind of an understatement. My season ticket partner and I started to get up and applaud, which quickly turned into a rant with the people around us asking if they were nuts. The fact there was about 20,000 drunk people in a very frustrating game is no excuse, I was really under the impression we have classier fans than the Cleveland's and Boston's of the world. Pod's reception all but proved that wrong.
