Lower box in the corner is only $105 right now on the Sox website. Gee, I wonder why they don't sell out? There's no doubt there has been some Sox fan apathy, but its a 2 way street. The Sox have been one of the top 4 or 5 priced tickets in MLB for several years and their new system makes buying tickets during the season even more expensive. Its really a remarkable way to try to cure your attendance "problem".

Attendance is a non issue. If it were important, the Sox wouldn't be charging $90 for bleacher seats against one of the worst teams in baseball.

I havent liked Maddon too much this season. Yeah, its still cheating and if he knows the other team knows why would he use that glove during a game? Maddon really is lookin like a crybaby this year.

Rogers showed Sox 3B are hitting worse than Nationals pitchers. They also are fielding like Nationals pitchers playing 3B.

In all fairness to Hudson, he's playing out of position. His pop up with the bases loaded an one out was at least close to as bad as his throw, and you can throw blame at him for that. All the mess ups at 3B, that's on KW and the White Sox. The guy isn't a thirdbaseman.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 10:11 PM) Im not mad at all actually. Its a game in the end. Not anything thats going to affect my life more than I want it to. That's true. When it bothers me too much, I just remember what my wife once told me when I was a little too consumed by the game... Its just a bunch of uneducated men in silly costumes, running around in dirt, trying to hit a ball with a stick.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 10:09 PM) They still have Dotel and Benoit. However, I think Leyland eventually will go with Villarreal. He's got almost Zumaya-like stuff. Didn't Dotel go on the DL recently?

A lot of posters were making excuses for the ODog when he was stinking up the joint but the Sox were winning. Jake just isn't wavering.

When they were scoring 9 runs every game, you knew the offense wasn't that good. They are also better than 5 runs in 3 games with optimal hitting conditions. Its a bad streak. Hopefully it ends soon.

The Padres are paying Hudson NOT to play for them. To expect him to be anything but below average is a giant reach.

Time to do the humane thing and put the ODog out of his (and our)misery.

Can't PR for AJP. No more catchers.

Marmol a product of the El Duque school of pitching. 3 and 2 on everyone.

Alexei used to always do something big in these situations.

If Marmol is throwing strikes, he's basically unhittable.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 09:40 PM) Peavy has just really been the f***in man this year. He just needs to shut up and pitch.

Peavy was awesome tonight. Don't hang him with an L offense.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 09:37 PM) This is a lot of pitches now... He had an extra day of rest. He may need another one before his next start.

Peavy was just pissed. For a second, I thought he was hurt on that last pitch.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 09:29 PM) No team in MLB can lose this much at home and contend a entire season the bubble is going to burst at some point! They have to start playing better at home. Its hard to believe they have been so bad at USCF.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 09:28 PM) What a bulls*** call. That ump is a cubs fan. He looks like he wants to get a deep dish before they close.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 09:25 PM) PK still isn't quite right, amazing that he's kept his average and everything afloat Hawk intimated both wrists are a problem.

The problem here is the lower part of the line up is set up to bat in the 9th.

A wild pitch would be nice.
