Dick Allen

There are 2 out, why is he in the stretch now?

Floyd from the stretch is a different pitcher.

Jeter is a professional hitter.

I got a call today from my ticket rep. She wanted to know if everything was OK. Really?

QUOTE (Baron @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 07:42 PM) Lets see how many more mistakes Rios can make I don't know how disinterested a guy has to be and how much he has to embarrass himself and the organization before the organization decides to really do something about it.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 07:39 PM) Yep...this is just incredible. I feel like I'm watching just a ridiculous organizational meltdown. Meanwhile, Adam Dunn seems to have lost all his power. He's like the kid on the Little League team who gets to bat once a game because its in the rules and is thrilled just to make contact or draw a walk. Not that I'm ripping those kids, because I watch my nephew play once in a while and it is thrilling for them.

Someone mentioned the other day that Ozzie must watch the same movie over and over again expecting to see a different ending.

I sure am glad the manager has decided once again the .165 hitter with nearly 140 ks, needs to hit clean up.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 07:30 PM) What did Rios do now? Got a horrid jump on a pop up but I'll give him benefit of the doubt on that one, then with the bases loade a flyball to fairly deep CF, all runners tag, he throws to 3B where he has no chance allowing the runner on first get to second. It was academic as Ozzie decided to pitch to Cano and he hit one into the RF seats.

Could the Sox score 5 without Konerko with fathom on the mound?

Hawk taking a slight jab at Ozzie. My God JR. DO SOMETHING

Alex Rios is as dumb as any player the White Sox have ever had. At least baseball-wise.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 07:23 PM) Did they even finish the game last night? The rain delay gave me an opportunity to turn that s***fest off. They didn't even bother.

Jeter and Granderson are both pretty classy guys.

QUOTE (Cali @ Aug 3, 2011 -> 07:18 PM) Wasn't the game supposed to start like 9 minutes ago? Is it raining? It doesn't have to rain at USCF for a rain delay. I left when it started raining last night and got home at about the same time I would have had they started on time and played a full game. I want to thank JR and the White Sox organization for saving me from watching another 2.5 innings of 2011 White Sox baseball last night.

KW is a buffoon, but wasn't Ozzie crying about having that extension picked up? Now he's making demands? Here's a guy who can't even control his 25 year old punk son on Twitter. Ozzie is under contract so the only way he can go to Miami is if the Sox fire him. If they don't they can have compensation. I'm also quite sure KW is not too popular with the shareholders considering the little bang for their buck he's brought them the last couple of years. They both need to go. The sooner the better. I really think if Ozzie and KW were sent packing tonight, this team would go on a roll.

I wonder how many White Sox bunts this year have actually lead to scoring runs that would not have been scored without bunting. Unfortunately there really is zero way to know.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 09:12 PM) Except for his entire minor league career. Jeff Abbott says hi. Morel has no power and has walked 3 times this year. You constantly have been on Viciedo for not walking but this guy takes that to a whole different level and you look the other way. Why?

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 09:07 PM) Shut up Hawk...Morel just has no power at all. Between him and Pierre, and Rios who has only 4 doubles his last 115 abs or so with no other extra base hits, and Dunn's inability to hit, its going to be hard to generate runs consistently. OPS has to be a number that intrigues the Sox when they think about their offense in the future.

I long for the days when the Sox were loaded with HR hitters.

AJ may have kept Chavez back a little.

Hey a White Sox hustling down the line.

He started out horribly, the Yankees are missing a couple of big bats, and there were several at him bombs hit, but when its all said and done 3 runs and 7 innings is something everyone would have taken from Peavy tonight.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 08:53 PM) Now that we're going with a 5 man rotation, it's just stupid and ignorant to push Peavy like this. I think pushing the envelope a little bit probably will help him in the long run, but its time to take him out. You're playing with fire and you have a shot at winning.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 1, 2011 -> 08:52 PM) I would think if Konerko wasn't hurt then Dunn would have sat tonight. For some reason, I doubt it.
