Anyone seen any weather forecasts? Are they gonna have any issues getting this one in?

QUOTE (hawkubes @ Jun 10, 2011 -> 03:32 AM) its hilarious b****in about KW trading away Gio a half decade ago when he'd be our 7th pitcher right now. OK 6th with peavy hurt. He'd be in the rotation, but the team probably wouldn't have Edwin or Humber, and might still have Hudson cooking, if they didn't use him to fill a different hole. The rotation would probably look something like this(in no particular order): Peavy Gio Buehrle Floyd Danks Hudson (while Peavy is out) I'd be pretty happy with it, as it's more long term stability than the current staff.

QUOTE (southsidepride15 @ Jun 9, 2011 -> 10:04 PM) Did I just see MB knock down a comebacker with his barehand and make the play? GG repeat in the bag this year? Don't players get grandfathered into the gold glove until they prove themselves useless? It was a nice play though.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 9, 2011 -> 09:54 PM) I was in a good mood until you posted this. I obviously know all of those guys are in the bullpen. But when you see all four of them mentioned in the same post it looks/feels 100 times worse. It should make you feel better that there's also Crain, Santos, Thornton, and Sale put there... The gap in expected performance in the pen is huge. Thankfully, Will Ohman actually looked decent tonight.

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jun 9, 2011 -> 09:44 PM) so i guess lucas harell can come out for the 9th? The Sox have 4 mop up guys in the pen right now. I hope Ozzie just puts Ohman, Pena, Bruney, and Harrel's name in a hat in these situations and runs with it.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 9, 2011 -> 09:42 PM) This is fantastic.

Just tweeted by @gameofinches: "Juan Pierre (.257/.324/.305) is out hitting Ichiro Suzuki (.256/.308/.298) #howdoesthathappen" For real?

Welcome to the party, Adam Dunn!

QUOTE (southsidepride15 @ Jun 9, 2011 -> 03:50 PM) It's up to Juan to call off Brent on that play....just sayin. True, but they were both silent and seemingly under the impression that the other was going to take the lead, seems like anytime two players are going after the ball on this team, they go silent. How many times have we seen two outfielders both heading towards a flyball and almost mess it up because nobody said anything?

Morel and Pierre are both to blame for not handling that play correctly. Had Brent vocally given the play to Juan and taken a route more appropriate to back up the ball if Juan missed, Juan would have gone after it harder and he probably would have made the play. Morel kept on a route to try to catch the ball. If I were Juan, there's no way I'd be going that hard after the ball. Guys break ribs and end seasons on plays like that.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 3, 2011 -> 07:32 AM) This is absolutely stellar.

111... I can't believe I forgot Luis Gonzalez!

Pretty solid atmosphere from the 23000 in attendance tonight, even if I was the only one in my section to note that Lillibridge and Pierre homered in a game that Dunn had an infield hit.. I'd put a good ten spot down that that combonation of events never happens again. Nice victory. Good to see Sergio with the 4 out save, he's for real.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jun 2, 2011 -> 10:32 AM) I'm willing to bet Omar can throw a knuckleball. I'd give him a shot at it. I hear Brian Anderson is available.

This team isn't dead! Look where KC is in the standings now (hint: below the White Sox), I expect Cleveland to meet them there soon enough. Catch Detroit and battle it out. Let's do this thing!

Will Ohman just ruined Humber's ERA.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ May 31, 2011 -> 08:27 PM) This actually does ask a legitimate question. At what point during the year do we try locking him up for a couple more seasons? Now's good.

QUOTE (ChrisLikesBaseball @ May 28, 2011 -> 03:45 PM) Sergio Santos is keeping Omar from having to actually PLAY 1b.. just stand there with the giant glove. Nevermind..

Sergio Santos is keeping Omar from having to actually PLAY 1b.. just stand there with the giant glove.

Umm.. Omar at 1b..?? I know he's a stellar defender.. but seriously?

Pretty solid defensive play by Sale there!

Just got home to catch the game.. Any reason Santos doesn't come in here?

Who's gamethread will be the lucky one tonight?!

Someone's gotta do it! ...

If a Donkey homers after midnight... does he turn into a pumpkin?
