Pierre needed to get that one further towards the line... Oh well.

Gordo with the nice look up the middle...

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 02:40 PM) haha, we should play a game of who will be on the Sox bench over the next few years. I'd say Eckstein is a definite, and no way we don't acquire T. Hunter in a few seasons. Who else am I missing? Miguel Cabrera in 15 years maybe? Heck Cabrera might not even be alive in 10 to 15 years with the way he takes care of himself.

Alexei now pushing .260 after his horrible start.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 02:38 PM) Choo would look good in a White Sox uniform. 10-12 more years...

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 02:34 PM) Worst call of the week!! INSTANT REPLAY WOULD HAVE SAVED US!!!!

Heh, either he missed the bag or he stepped on Penas foot. Either way he should have been out.

Terrible footwork at 1B

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 01:54 PM) But you use some of the money you free up from Buehrle's contract to extend Danks. I've yet to see anything that shows me that John Danks wants to be extended.

It is amazing that Carlos is still on pace for about 100 rbis with the way that he has hit so far.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 02:03 PM) Who's brilliant idea was it to put the hockey and basketball games on at the same time tonight? Who cares about the WNBA?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 01:33 PM) Vizquel, Teahen, Jones, Kotsay and Castro don't even make the bench on more than 5 other major league teams, mostly NL squads. Add Nix to that list, that's 40% of our "offensive" roster. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 01:36 PM) Who would claim any of those players (if they were DFA'ed) and dare to start them besides an NL team? A hit...pretty marginal one. Alexei The Cuban Miscue Ramirez strikes again. There is a big difference between being on a roster and starting.

Man the ball in the air is carrying today. This is going to be a game that has about 20 runs on the board by the time we are done.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 01:25 PM) Omar Vizquel has a better OBP this season than Ozzie Guillen had with the Sox and is only .005 lower than Luis Aparicio's career OBP. I know Omar is hated around these parts mostly, but I love the guy for what he is. No he's not the 90's Vizquel anymore, but he still has value on a 25 man roster.

PK DOES YARD WORK!!!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 01:28 PM) Everything he hits is a line drive. And Cleveland's scouting report has been perfect so far on the two outs. Neither OF had to move more than a step or two.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 5, 2010 -> 08:57 PM) Danks was moved back to leadoff and went 1-3 with no K's. I'll take it. That is a smart move I think. Make him more conscious of taking pitches.

QUOTE (joeynach @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:44 AM) ill take no hit for even money How much do you want to bet?

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:09 AM) Too bad they didn't trade Beckham this offseason when his value was probably sky high. To me Beckham always seemed like a guy who would develop into a "nice little player but I never saw him as the potential superstar others did and never thought he should have been an "untouchable". Right... because you wouldn't have throw a fit if we traded Gordo?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 01:18 PM) Buehrle with an ERA now of 5.21, Lord knows what it is since OD. Obviously if he's hovering around 84-86 MPH FB, he's a full 3-5 MPH behind what he used to throw. He has to have more than 5 to 7 mph separation between the change and fastball in order to be successful. Mark either has to find his fastball, or slow down his change. with that little difference hitters can sit in the middle and still catch up to both.

Well on the bright side I could have paid to see this mess...

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 10:42 AM) Santos is a guy I would think about trading. His is a nice story, but its hard for me to believe he's not going to eventually struggle with his lack of experience, not that he wouldn't be able to eventually overcome the struggles, but he has no options left and he'd never clear waivers. That makes no sense to me. If we trade Santos, we are going to acquire a guy that has a lack of experience and struggles to overcome as they learn at the major league level. We own Santos for six years. There is no way he goes anywhere unless a huge name is traded for.

With Juan Pierre hitting behind Gordo right now, I would like to see him set back into the two slot and see if having the two best hitters right now on the team hitting behind him might help out Beckham.

Happy Birthday Brave Sir Knight
