QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 2, 2013 -> 08:15 PM) Because KW/Hahn were getting too clever for their own good and thinking they could get a significant return for Gavin at the ASB. After our early "offensive barrage," we've settled into the middle innings "blahs" again, like clockwork. Grimm's got a lot of talent, and we are lacking in that area...more tip your caps. He still could have been stretched out in the spring and moved to the pen in April.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 2, 2013 -> 08:07 PM) Isn't that what Reed is? He's not overpowering, but he has 3 solid pitches (for a reliever) and has good command. I didn't say he wasn't but that is why if the sox move him they do not need to look for a stuff guy. I think there is no market for closers so why even move him?

Why wasn't Santiago starting all spring?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 2, 2013 -> 08:03 PM) Coming soon...we need to trade Addison Reed because closers are easily replaceable. Non-contending teams don't need closers, etc. Hopefully it nets more than Nestor Molina, but they're in no position to make that kind of move anyway (and it would be 2 months away, and more likely in the offseason with Reed) is because the only other viable option stuff-wise is Nate Jones and he's been bad. It's one thing to trade Santos because you have Reed coming up behind him, but you don't want to make anyone else the closer unless you want the worst trainwreck in history on your hands. Closers don't need stuff they to throw strikes and hit their spots. Not sure Sox have that.

Professional at bat by kinsler there.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 2, 2013 -> 07:58 PM) Is there any good news, at any level of the organization? Conor Gillaspie is it (not counting the strikeout tonight)? Santiago, quintana and sale.

This team is unwatchable. Losing is fine but the stupidity and lack of attempting to execute is what makes this whole thing a mess right now.

Pathetic

The White Sox we be allowed to use sabermetics to better field a team as opposed to what we see with the catching position and left field with Viciedo.

Our ace beat some schlep yipee you can not win if you can't hit and the Sox cannot hit.

I like GOT but sometimes I think I need subtitles and I am lost a good amount of the time.

3 overtimes no free throws, thought the home team got the calls in playoffs

Comical

NBA officiating is more entertaining than the actual game.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 26, 2013 -> 03:03 PM) Angelo did a pretty respectable job (IMO) until Lovie got involved in the process. That was 2007 and not coincidentally 2007 was the worst draft of Angelo's career. But it was largely Angelo who drafted the Super Bowl defense, found Hester, etc. and hard as it might be to visualize now, at one point the Bears had a decent OL. This is not pointed out enough. Angelo went from a very good draft guy to a guy that drafted very specific talent people, as soon as Lovie got his big deal.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 20, 2013 -> 05:17 PM) There was no reason to pinch run Greene unless you planned to run with him. He only went on the last pitch of Alexei's PA. SMH. Neither the manager or bench coach seem to have great in game managing skill.

Reed will get hit around here and Perkins will get the save. Man this offense sucks.

I want three seeing eye singles for the win.

Pen is not going to be perfect every day. Adam Dunn is an embarrassment once again. He really should at least try and bunt against that shift.

QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ Apr 15, 2013 -> 03:36 PM) No idea if NY Post reporting is accurate "Authorities ID'd a suspect in marathon bombings - he is being guarded in Boston hospital" I read this and was not quite sure how to react. So a potential suicide bomber did not blow himself up entirely and now we will try and put him back together again. I hope he is at the end of the triage line.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Apr 15, 2013 -> 02:31 PM) A marathon would be my last idea if a target. Just terrible to hear. Patriots Day Celebration.

Great finish.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Apr 13, 2013 -> 04:36 PM) Side sessions not to ML hitters. sounds like a good plan

Robin having a rough go of it early on.

Wow Masterson threw 113 pitches Here comes the seeing eye single to end the game
