Harry Chappas

He just isn't a good hitter blown away but a 90 mph fastball. how long will this nonsense continue

I am finally starting to realize that this is a tv show not a movie and they can't just sit and explain everything, the show would've lasted one season. I think a lot of the BS was just entertainment that they are weaving back in, in certain cases. The numbers, time travel, Locke, polar bears, Abaddo, Dharma, Rose/Bernard, etc. These were just things to fill 6 seasons of television and the key is to entertain us Sunday for 2.5 hours.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 18, 2010 -> 08:43 PM) Really, Carlos Silva dominating? It is the NL. Also Z is being stretched out to moved to the rotation.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 18, 2010 -> 06:57 PM) Hanley is whining about being benched. I suggest he shuts the f*** up and gets over himself like Jimmy Rollins did. BENCH HIM UNTIL MONDAY!!!!!!

This team is playing .500 ball for the last 6 weeks or so. They need to get more consistent.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 18, 2010 -> 10:34 PM) Not much offensive pressure from the hawks since their last goal They need to not give up anything soft.

These refs are terrible should have been a bad intereference on the other end and then a cheap hold is called.

This is a friggin crazy pace

That tired me out just watching it. Niemi.....WOW Not sure what to say about the conversation of moving him but Huet will not be on the payroll next year. Without Niemi's play thus far there is no doubt the Hawks lose game one and are behind in this one. The key is he is still on his skates more than earlier in the year. Stephan Waite is looking like Don Cooper right now.

I got them right but isn't the Lamp Post actually a Dharma station off of the island?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 18, 2010 -> 02:50 PM) Yeah, so the typos there made it say that you've got a feeling this game is going to not get a lot closer. and I was wrong about it getting closer and putting guys away. I wish this team would get on a nice roll and have some sort of consistency. 3-3 trip is not bad but it should have been much better. Garcia shut down the Twins and Tigers.

There you go..that is how to put a guy away.

I thought the Sox bench was bad but the Tigers is worse. How do they win with Don Kelly playing 5 times a week.....oh wait.....Jenks is unable to put s*** hitters away.....I got a feeling this game is goig not get a lot closer.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 18, 2010 -> 02:43 PM) Yes, but he warms up nearly every game. Very rarely does he get a full rest on a game day. At this point, let's just hope it's nothing that requires surgery. So do most good set up men. Maybe that is why there are not that many of them.

Jenks needs to simply throw 96 MPH fastballs on the corners and see what happenses today no walking guys and s*** like that.

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 18, 2010 -> 02:32 PM) Well, it has to come sooner or later. You're not going to abuse somebody like Thornton for so many years and not expect him to get hurt, even if his mechanics are nearly flawless. He has thrown 7 less innings than Zumaya this year. I think the overuse thing is overrated. He is on pace to throw 80 innings this year.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 18, 2010 -> 02:28 PM) My lord. Try using firefox. It has built in spell check. Sorry was trying to get a thought out too quickly. What did AJ do?

QUOTE (docsox24 @ May 18, 2010 -> 02:18 PM) anyone who cheers for their fantasy team over their real team is not a fan. one time we were in vegas and a bunch of us each lost about $500 on a football game. one guy was happy because his fantasy guy did well. i swear he was almost murdered right there that is why I said it would not be good for my well being if he homered. The cbssportsline snafu was what got me. I always bet an amount i am fine losing against the Sox. I think of it this way. I will spend $25 a day to watch the Sox win. If they lose, hey I made $25. I would never bet on the Sox as a lose is a double kick in the nuts and I am not sure why people do that. what would you pay to see the OSx win teh WS....I thought of this amout nand bet agsint them. I never regretted it.

I have Cabrera in fantasy baseball and Arraon Hill. When Cabreara made the out his line was switched with Hill's who has a home run and 3 rbi today....I thought cabreara hit a slam..which for fantasy would have been nice but for my well being, not so much The Blue Jays are good and the White Sox outplayed them..really is sad this season is where it is currently.

White Sox are 12th in the AL in pitching. I did not realize they were that bad. The effortless innings logged by the offense on a regualr basis is why I can not get behind this team at all. They make corpseball days look productive.

Huet is going to move to Rockford or be the backup. Nobody is taking that contract.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2010 -> 12:09 PM) It's the National League. I guarantee Jenks would be successful there. Heck, Carlos Silva is a valuable starter in that league. Jenks would be a premier closer in the NL. From watching the NL it just seems that teams give at bats away and do not work a pitcher like they do in the AL, not including the White Sox.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ May 17, 2010 -> 07:35 PM) Anyone else as big of a fan of "The Big Bang Theory" as I am? Last weeks episode had me in stitches. Yes the show is great. Sheldon is the best.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2010 -> 04:32 PM) Maybe Nix took Ozzie's kid out drinking? It's just ridiculous. Another case of ozzie trying to prove he knows more than anyone. There really is no need for vizquel to play if Nix is not the answer make Retherford prove that he is not as well. There is no reason whatsoever to have a 43 year old guy putting in time to do nothing that any 26 year old with potential could not do. Now ifthe Sox were playing well and a guy went down and you need Vizquel for a week or two fine or once or twice off the bench. This team is not getting better and Vizquel does ntohing to turn it around. The sad part about this season is how we are missing may teams top notch pitchers and still can not win.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2010 -> 03:43 PM) If Pierre reaches base and Vizquel doesn't hit-and-run, then that would be a prime example of bad managing. He will be bunting. I have no problem with Vizquel playing but I really am very tired of some canned type of line-up that has not worked for the last two season that guillen keeps shoving down our throats. I really believe after watching this team that RHH can not hit RHP and LHH can not hit LHP.
