Al Lopez's Ghost

Merkin tweeted KW said a draftee's advisor will not prevent the Sox from selecting the best player available at 3.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ May 12, 2014 -> 12:25 AM) De Aza tripped on a fly ball and everyone decided it was because of lack of effort somehow. I didn't think it was a lack of effort. It was an over abundance of suck.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 11, 2014 -> 05:12 PM) Bench De Aza for ......I don't know De Aza isn't hitting, fielding, and his base running lately has been hazardous to his own health. I'd release him and call up someone who can at least catch the damn ball.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 11, 2014 -> 04:16 PM) Yeah, I can't remember the last time a pitcher he really seemed to help started a game for the white sox. I agree Balta, it seems like it's been hours.

I wonder what would happen to the valuation if/when the Cubs leave for their own network.

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 9, 2014 -> 04:47 PM) Isn't it 20% Hawks, 20% Bears, 20% Sox, 20% Cubs, 20% Bulls? Don't think the Bears are involved.

De Aza murdering a rally. Next he'll screw up in the field.

We'll, we've seen him at his worst

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Apr 18, 2014 -> 07:26 PM) I heard Hawk say on a pitch to Donnie Murphy that his fastball was 96. No movement, no breaking pitch to rely on. Doesn't matter how hard you throw if you're a 1 pitch pitcher.

Release him. He's got nothing.

I assume you're kidding, right?

No team with Nick Swisher can complain about hot dogging a big hit.

27,000 plus

QUOTE (beautox @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:42 PM) Thank you, the only members of the pen i give a f*** about are in this order: Webb, Petricka, Cleto & Veal. This is a rebuilding year, it would be great if we're a dark horse but don't count on it and just try and take away the positives of our young core actually being competent at the plate sans Viciedo. No love for Nate Jones?

I was there because I loved twilight double headers, couldn't care less about the Dahl thing. Old Comiskey had these arched "windows" in left and right. Not real windows, just openings. People were climbing in, not an easy thing to do. It was a madhouse. This is a true story. I was sitting behind 4 nuns. The crowd was chanting "Disco sucks" over and over. One of the nuns turns around and asks me what are they chanting. Back then you didn't say sucks to a nun. So I scrambled for an answer and said they're saying "Let's go Sox." Brilliant, right? Not so much. The nuns start clapping along, saying let's go Sox, and from 10 feet away everyone around thought the nuns were chanting Disco Sucks too.

Please let the Cub fans bring up our attendance. It's how they spend their summers.

Hitting coach, first of all. I think he's a cancer survivor, which could be a factor in his bone strength. Really gruesome to see.

There's a 20% discount available to members of the military, local, state or Federal government. Here's the link. http://govx.com/MLBTVRegister.html?gxweba=...-20-percent-off

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 30, 2014 -> 11:58 PM) I'll be there with an 8 month old, will be quite a different opening day experience. So he/she has never seen the Sox lose! Keep it going!

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 26, 2014 -> 12:35 PM) https://twitter.com/ckamka/status/448889522743279616 #WhiteSox lineup today: Adam Arcus, M Abreu Adam Avisail Alejandro Alexei Adrian Acquired for Alex Rios So this is not a "B" game.

Merkin says he signed a 5 year, potentially 26 million $ contract.

Red Sox are shopping Ryan Lavarnay. Per MLB trade rumors

Who knows what's gonna happen. I prefer to hope we get an Esteban Loiaza turnaround. Likely? Probably not, but hell it's not even March yet.

Thome's walk off 500th homer.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jan 30, 2014 -> 09:09 PM) The Iguchi play I remember was in the 2005 playoffs. The Iguchi play I remember was in 2006. Charged a grounder, layed out parallel to the ground, almost underhanded it to first. That one.
