Escobar, Morel and Lillibridge have no business being in the majors right now. One of them is fine but the other two need to be sent down. You need some sort of productivity from your bench.

When a team can not score runs the bullpen will always have to shut a team down and that is impossible to do every time out there.

Bet the Sox score one run and get two guys on for Beckham to K or ground into a DP to end it.

Quintana nice work, would be nice to win a slugfest but I guess he most you could ask for from this team is 5 runs.

Looking at the holt/cold zone for alex rios. On balls thrown right down the middle he is hitting .182, nice.

Rios pops out on the infield almost as much as Joe Crede and while Beckham may be adding something to this lineup recently he still strikes out way to often. the last two at-bats yesterday were abysmal as was the at-bat last inning.

Is there really an improvement to this team if Lillibridge replaces Morel?

McAllister and Humber threw the same amount of pitches through two innings.

sigh....this rotation is not looking good

Amazing how the indians were struggling to hit homers and the Sox righted that wrong from them last week.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2012 -> 12:47 PM) Fukudome, of course, is 5/27 against RHP. Hawk says he has smoked everything right at someone.

Sounds like Quintana stays and Stults is just for the doubleheader.

I just hope this team will realize Thorton can not finish a game. Would also like for the Sox to win a game like that it seems think that happens once a year and it already has happened three times to them this year.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 2, 2012 -> 09:44 PM) LaHair looks pretty damn good for the Cubs. Theo will likely trade him to an AL team at the deadline. Also never thought Samardjiza would be as good of a starter as he's looked this year. Sample size. Morning radio abuzz this morning about how Garza and Samardjiza are the building blocks of the future. The team is at least another full season away from anything and at which time Garza and Sam will become expensive and age risks. The team has no power at all.

With he LHH in Cleveland you need to go with a leftie, no?

Left danks in to long Friday and ohman today.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 2, 2012 -> 03:43 PM) You realize that you just responded to a pair of statistically significant studies saying that there is a huge increase in the rate of depression directly associated with concussions with one anecdote saying "no there isn't", right? The U of M study noted above seems to indicate that football players suffer the same rate of depression as normal populace. Am I reading that wrong? Regardless of the outcome I think it is really safe to assume that football players are gambling on their health and livelihood and are doing so by choice. It could be the concussions or massive amounts of other crap along with crashing into other large individuals and steroids that is causing this.

Stults should get the opportunity and if he does well, Will Ohman can be traded or shown the old DFA door. I liked Stults before he was injured serviceable leftie. His starting seems odd after the surgery but who am I to judge.

Baltimore is 15-9 Go Beckham

Bears bad luck killed their season (Cutler) Bulls bad luck killed their season (Rose) Hawks bad luck killed their season (Hossa) cubs rebuilding Come on Sox give the city some hope back.

Jake has made his money he is with the White Sox because he only wants to play in the midwest. The Tigers may makea run at him or even the Roylas but he may stay here or go to the cubs. Remember the no trade clasue and the limited teams he wants to play for.

Wow are the hawks getting their asses to them in this period And a goal....seabrook HD a nice view of it

Somebody should bump the Jeff Manto thread from when he was named hitting coach and his quotes. i recall a lot of conversation about how his approach does not make sense. It is all coming to fruition.

Sunday lineup may be better than the everyday lineup.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Apr 18, 2012 -> 07:20 PM) White Sox starter John Danks expounding on why this year's team is better than 2011 Danks: "I hate to say it, but there were times, especially later in the season, where we were just kind of counting the outs" Danks: "It was kind of like, 'All right, let's just get it over with.'" Danks says 2012 Sox are tighter and have never-say-die attitude Scot Gregor via twitter. Thanks for nothing guys! Indicative of a manger that quit on a team so glad that asshat is gone.
