Keep it up Pierzynski.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 20, 2007 -> 02:39 PM) Nick has pretty much done everything we've asked of him. Someone buy the kid a beer after the game. USE TWO f***ING HANDS DARIN. YOU HAD TIME Holy s***, you need to lay off.

Get Danks up.

I don't think anyone outside the Southside of Chicago really likes Harrelson. PS: why not?

Is it true that Yaz really doesn't like Harrelson?

QUOTE(fathom @ May 20, 2007 -> 02:20 PM) Oh boy....Crede's hurt. Maybe we can get someone who can run to replace him. I hope so! Not Pablo, though.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 20, 2007 -> 02:15 PM) Hey guys, who was the opponent last season when Iguchi did that crazy dive/throw to first. Have a bet going on here with some friends. Jays.

"MERCY!" Worst call ever. I think I prefer Hey Hey!

Terrible AB by Pierzynski

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ May 20, 2007 -> 02:04 PM) I'm hoping my thought that Masset simply has starter (long term) stuff moreso than relief type stuff is accurate. Good inning there. It's no secret that the Sox see him as a future starter. That's why he's the long reliever, and not a setup man or anything

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ May 20, 2007 -> 02:02 PM) Erstad doesn't hit, or field, at all. Like I said, at least he's consistent. Right right right right -- I'm just afraid that we've used up all of next week's runs so fa.r

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ May 20, 2007 -> 01:59 PM) 2nd and 3rd 2 outs Saturday, nada from Erstad 2nd and 3rd 2 outs Sunday, nada from Erstad At least he grinds and gets bad reads to make up for it Nobody hits a thousand with runners on. Go blow up the team, or something

I just hit myself in the right leg with a wiffle ball bat after Konerko was still at second on that bloop. Man, our lineup is slow, and our baserunners get bad reads.

Dye is the worst hitter in the world with 3 balls.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 20, 2007 -> 01:40 PM) He's terrible at catching the actual ball. I'd say pitch calling is his biggest strength still. I remember when Hawk used to say how great he was at doing it....now, you never hear that. I hate his pitch-calling.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 20, 2007 -> 01:37 PM) He's such a bad defensive catcher. To be fair, he's only bad at calling games and throwing the ball. Otherwise he's very very good. Actually, I'll defend him. His weak spot is his arm. He's good at blocking and catching. He needs to get better at calling.

It's okay. He throws just a tick slower than Jenks. QUOTE(fathom @ May 20, 2007 -> 01:34 PM) This umpire has a small strike zone....that's not good for Masset, as well as our group of hitters that aren't good.

Dear AJ Pierzynski, Please run hard to first base. What the hell is wrong with you?

It'll go down. Once these contracts go off the books, they're going to start replacing them with crap instead of free agents.

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ May 20, 2007 -> 12:18 PM) Oh, goody. Another The Sox are sooooo cheap! argument backed up by nothing but a hunch. Well, that and their constant b****ing about how salaries have gone through the roof!

I fully expect the organization to whine all offseason next offseason over contracts. Buehrle's too expensive! Ichiro's too expensive! We have to settle for Grinders! It means that this is a cheap organization at-heart and will revert to it soon, IMO.

That judge should step down. From that trial

It's a no-brainer. If the team were publicly committed to spending money and had a track record of good drafting, there'd be reason to be optimistic but as it stands we're an old team that relies on the homerun because we can't manufacture runs because most of the team clogs the bases, we don't draft or develop particularly well and there's reason to believe that we won't be spending as much in the future (or will have to settle for Aaron Rowand instead of Andruw Jones, to give an example), then the only reasonable thing to conclude is that there are dark days ahead, especially when the rest of the division is young and studly.
