Hah, so sad that even on a good night like tonight, we have our Debbie Downers in Paul Konerko and Jim Thome

Wow, sexy 'Lexei is becoming one to really watch here....Uribe who at second?

Nick Swisher representing with that now .203 average.

Wow....yeah, this is a deserving First Place team...

Bravo Mr. Swisher, BRAVO!!!

Nice to see the real Mark Buehrle of 2008 step back up here in the 5th inning

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 1, 2008 -> 01:32 AM) can we seriously stop f***ing relating the 2007 team to the 2008 team? In case you didn't notice, it's a different year and a completely different team. f***in a Yes, its a different team, and yet....the exact same results so far...the comparisons, while seemingly unwarranted, are definitely noticeable. Offensive philosophy the problem? Aging power hitters who don't adjust? A s***ty hitting 'instructor'? I don't know what the cause of all the offensive mediocrity is, but the struggles from 2007 that everyone kept saying "Don't worry, they'll start hitting soon enough", are painfully visible this year, with a 'completely different team'.

Bravo Mr. Swisher, bravo

Hey Javy, thanks again for yet another damn fine outing.....sorry we hit like a teamful of Rafael Belliards.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ May 31, 2008 -> 08:13 PM) Next person to suggest Swisher should be benched in favor of Anderson should just.............. At least Swisher has an upside. Really? Let me know what that is...because I'll take Andersons upside (the top notch defense in CF) anyday over Nick Swisher right now.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 31, 2008 -> 08:07 PM) Well right now the Rays have the same amount of runs as we have hits. I guess I find it hard to express just how damn irritated and frustrated I am with this team right now. As good as our pitching is, and that was supposed to be the question mark of this team, we've got to settle for a bunch of overpaid, aging stiffs that all look the same up at the plate, and seem to have no idea of strategy or hitting plan at all.

I wonder how it feels as a starting pitcher, knowing if you make one mistake and give up 1 run, there is a pretty damn good chance you're getting an "L" or at best, a no decision

Nick Swisher ... .202

This "offense" really makes me want to go smack someones mama...I'm so sick and damn tired of such lackluster, s*** performances from a batting order that is making MORE than their share of the team payroll Pull your f***ing weight, you sacks of s***.

We are a GIDP machine, such crap....take advantage of the men on base already!!

Nick Swisher ,hands down, is the biggest rally killer in the Sox lineup....at least Thome accidentally runs into one every now and then... What a colossal disappointment..

Not so sure we really needed to use Dotel tonight, he gets more than enough work as it is...hope it doesn't hurt us in some way.

Nice throw, Credeocre

Wasn't much you can blame on OCab there....the ball was crushed to Left-center, and I thought he was going to make 3rd easy. Upton threw an absolute pea from the wall in the air, to 3rd.

QUOTE (shawnhillegas @ May 26, 2008 -> 09:18 PM) It's so hilarious that, at this point in the season, OC is universally loathed, and Linebrink's contract is the absolute least of our concerns. I'm not so sure about that...OC isn't a big concern right now because he's starting to hit. There are FAR bigger black holes in this lineup to sweat over...

Hey, one of our starting pitchers is going to get a No Decision....that RARELY happens this season Although, this is one I'm kinda glad to have at least gotten.

Mr. King of the Solo Homerun himself

Again, I must reiterate, just how disappointing has Nick Swisher been this year? Now at .202

Thome now officially at .199...so sad

Well, it appears Javy is on his D game tonight, we better take better advantage of the hits on Byrd
