Farnsworth-he gone

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 04:05 PM) Uribe is not a good matchup against Farnsworth. Hopefully, he can walk. What did I tell you?

Uribe is not a good matchup against Farnsworth. Hopefully, he can walk.

QUOTE(Y2HH @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 04:02 PM) After seeing this team play the past few weeks, I'm convinced we'd better add a stick in the middle of this lineup somewhere, or we are dead come playoff time. The heart of your order cannot be batting .230-265 in the playoffs like they have been all year...that's a death knell. Rowand's got to start hitting with some authority. He is usually pretty good in the second half, even before last season's breakout.

Back to back dreaded leadoff walks. If Dye gets on base this will get interesting.

Its a shame they put 4 runs on the board in the 9th. Farnsworth would have blown this game if it still were a 1 run game.

Where's Shingo when you need him?

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:46 PM) I actually like our chances against those 4. None of them have ERA's under 4, and Miller's has been crap. And Clement's ERA is over 9.00 this month in 3 starts.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:38 PM) well i don't like our chances against Clement tomorrow, hopefully Buehrle brings his A game. Clement hasn't been that effective lately. He may be entering his fade a little earlier this season. They go against Clement, Wakefield, Miller and Arroyo. They can win 3 of these games.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:33 PM) We are going to get a good shot of how this will work when we face the Bosox with two cubans. Yes. The White Sox are going to have to get more than 3 or 4 hits a game.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:28 PM) Garcia is STILL pitching...??? WTF...?? Nepotism. Trying to get Freddy a win.

You know, if Frank started talking like he invented the game of baseball, and he started building benches out of baseball bats and bases, you wouldn't be able to tell him apart from Ron Kittle.

Leave Freddy in until his arm falls off.

QUOTE(retro1983hat @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 01:56 PM) How long before Paulie's completely bald? Paulie's going to get some plugs before that happens. I saw him out on the street last summer, I think he uses that spray paint stuff on his bald spot when he's not playing.

Konerko just said Jacque Jones is the best player he ever played against, period.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 01:05 PM) LMAO.. that's gotta suck for all those people. 15K rain delay leaves little room to move on the concourse.. 35K has got to be comical. I bet the concourse is a steam bath with all those people there. I loooooooooove the club level.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 01:02 PM) I still don't get it. Dave Littlefield is the GM of the Pirates. I believe Detroit acquired Shelton from the Pirates in the Rule 5 draft.

Freddy was horrible against Oakland. It appears its more of the same so far today.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 12:21 PM) Man It seems like Frank has been 0-2 in like his last 50 AB's. Come on Hurt...snap out of it He's basically Ron Kittle circa 1986 right now.

Does anyone else find it odd that Carl Everett's favorite cartoon is the Flintstones?

This is going to be a tough game to win today. Robertson's a good pitcher.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 11:21 AM) Actually its disgusting how much people overate Paulie.... he could be hitting .220 but when he bats all the fans chant Paulie like he is a god...... Frank gets louder cheers and he's hitting .218.

I think another problem with the White Sox making a deadline deal is I don't think what's in the Sox farm system is highly coveted. There are players there who have a chance at becoming good major leaguers, but there is nothing close to a "can't miss" prospect.

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 07:38 AM) its been like 88 years. trade the whole aaa for all i care. Just get what we need. This is a year in baseball where alot of teams are average. This is so true. This is the White Sox chance. The $200 million Yankees have holes that they won't be able to fill until the offseason, and they will fill them. The Red Sox while still a force, seem to be suffering a post championship letdown, and their bullpen is questionable. The whole NL with the exception of STL is weak. This is the Sox best chance. They can't waste it.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 07:35 AM) It doesn't matter for me. I do 99% of my drinking at the tailgate before the game. I can't convince myself to spend for 1 beer what I could buy a six pack for outside of the park. It is amazing what beer costs. I can never understand the people that complain about ticket prices, but always have about 10 beers at the park.
