Lol. this team is awful.

QUOTE (docsox24 @ May 17, 2010 -> 02:16 PM) so is one extra base hit in their last 35 innings Not that shocking really. This team really has little talent.

And no one give me the crap about "who else should hit 2" because the answer is simple: ANYBODY BUT OMAR VIZQUEL AND HIS TEAM-WORST .396 OPS!

Hahaha, Ozzie really must want to be fired. Game after game he throws out the s***tiest possible lineup for the given situation. What a joke of a manager we have.

Congratulations to the Kansas City Royals and their new manager. They just got their first series win this season, courtesy of the Chicago White Sox.

Kotsay batting about 10 points less in 7 less ABs than Widger was when he was DFA'ed.. make it happen, KW.

Mark f***ing Kotsay everybody. Please, DFA his ass. The guy is AWFUL!

Man, we've had so many close plays go against us. All those great defense plays, homers foul by 5 feet.. that.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ May 16, 2010 -> 04:28 PM) Rios is great. Jesus. For real. I was excited when we got him, and hes finally making me excited again.

Btw, Rios :

Soria seems like the kind of guy who will just mow us down. Edit: YES! I jinxed him!

Beckham is on pace for 120 Ks assuming 500 ABs.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 16, 2010 -> 04:21 PM) I still say it won't help Beckham sending him down. What more can he do down there? You work on things and man up in the big leagues. Ride the storm out, baby. Why the f*** would the White Sox send him down?? Ridiculous. He has the ability. Show it. Bat him ninth the rest of the year if you have to. Oh wait, we already have 3-4 candidates for ninth. You'll probably get your wish though. I could see the Sox making yet another bad decision with personnel soon. I would not be shocked at all they send him down. I still think Beckham is awful for the 2 spot. We don't have anyone else blah blah, but he needs to be batting somewhere else to help him figure his s*** out. If we send him down, he can bat wherever he needs to bat, and just focus on confidence in his swing, like someone said. Even if its just for 2 weeks, I think it could do him a hell of a lot of good.

And we flip and flop our way into the bottom of the 8th. 1-2-3. Weak showing by our 2-3-4 hitters. Awful, just awful. There's just too many really, really bad hitters on this team that I fully believe could hit .240 or less. At some point we need to accept this. Yeah, we may only be a fifth of the way through but these guys have shown no life. Even when it seems like they may be starting to figure it out, they fall right back into their old habits. It'll take a miracle, I think, for this team to not be 12+ back by the ASB.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 16, 2010 -> 04:16 PM) Another game, another awful performance by Beckham. Time to send him down to AAA. Realistically, when should we expect this? End of June?

Awful at bat by Becks, and Jones flys out deep to left. Beckham saw 6 straight fast balls.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 16, 2010 -> 03:43 AM) 4 straight now. 2-2 over those 4 games. Phew, Rios saved us from going 5. 1 of 3 today from the homer.

This has to be the weakest bench in the AL, if not in the ML. I haven't looked at any other rosters or benches, but I would assume when you have all of your bench guys hitting under .225, you're in last place.

I really hope we win this. I don't want to give KC their first series win AND be 1-5 against the Indians.. embarrassing.

And, of course, Pierre strikes out like a chump to end it. Best chance to do something.. thwarted.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 16, 2010 -> 04:00 PM) Bases loaded. Ball hit him on the right forearm instead of his bat. Shades of JD in 2005, haha? Nope, they called it a foul.

awful, awful call.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHH AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH

Holy f***, we only have 2 guys under .200 in the lineup right now. This has to be the first time all year this has happened.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ May 16, 2010 -> 03:45 PM) Kubel just hit a grand slam off Rivera. 6-3 now. Really? Mother f***er. First runs given up by Rivera this season. I started Brad Penny (who sucked) and now Rivera.. I got a 15.19 ERA with a 3.00 WHIP today
