QUOTE (Cubano @ Jun 3, 2008 -> 02:39 PM) No, he is that age unlike El Duke. The big question, how old is Contreras?

After tonight this thread will no longer be relevant anyway.

6-1 Royals on a game that starts at 9:30 and nobody realizes or cares whne it is over that it was even played. Dye with a HR in the Bottom of the 8th for the lone tally ending box score; 6-8-1 for the Royals (Gathright and Dejesus wiht 4 SB's combined) 1-3-0 for your White Sox Although i think the Sox then win the 4 in a row. Grenike owns the Sox. This will be the perverbial tip of the cap night on the Soxside

DL Konerko, sign Bonds and risk Thome at firstbase. Gotta do something.

I believe Cabrera and Crede are on the block and I think the Orioles and the Dodgers are the teams of choice.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 30, 2008 -> 10:23 PM) I assume we get Greinke, Hochevar, and Meche next week vs KC. We really need Thome and Swisher to pick it up to help against righty pitching. Please use green

Cabrera looks to be turning things around.

QUOTE (southsidesoxfan1983 @ Jun 1, 2008 -> 12:02 PM) you think uribe likes what ramirez is doing pretty much taking his job away from him Uribe gave his job away. Real bad ab by Anderson

Ramirez looks like hit doesn't miss cookies

Swisher with no luck at all.

Strike zone is odd

Nice pick off. Not sure Upton was even going, he just froze.

Nice play by Cabrera. Buerhle not throwing strikes.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 1, 2008 -> 11:07 AM) Tampa has a pretty awful lineup out there as well today. Doesn't matter if you can not hit or throw strikes.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 31, 2008 -> 03:47 PM) Either way I'm very pleased with the amount of change we've seen to this lineup since the ASB of last season (Kenny has brought in some good young talent despite having a very poor farm system to rely on). Is it raining by you today? What is with the 500 word posts? This is like the third one.

Seeing as lefties are hiting .100 off Kazmir, nice line-up. I still thought we'd see Thome. I can see Ramirez hanging around that number 2 hole for a bit if he has any succcess. Still think Kazmir steps it up and Javy has scuffled a little. 6-1 Rays Also Swisher to 9...ouch.

The line on the cubs today was -260. That is about as high as you can get other than when Pedro would face the Devil Rays, amazing.

I think anyone that does not at least think PEDS's and Nick Swisher is very naive. There is no tangible reason for being this bad at baseball.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 30, 2008 -> 11:06 AM) The question is whether its the Brewers (could you imagine if it were the case, considering Selig's general closeness to the franchise) or Braves as those are the two organizations that Wilder was in the longest (IIRC). Greg Pratt is on his way to fight you.

Does Juliete seem to fall in love with everyone except Ben? Kemney is dead for sure. The funny thing though is what happens now to the island? The Others and the Losties should all come together under Locke so what is the deal? It is almost going to have to turn into a differnet show. I was holding out hope to the end that the Sci-Fi thing wouldn't come about, oh well. Other than Sun, the alst day on the island wasn't as bad as it was out to be. When Kate was talking about it, I thought it would be much worse. I guess the island disappearing was freaky though.

It was a weeknight while school is going on. Nobody knew what that team would be now and there can still be doubt. Now if they draw 13K over the weekend that is bad but the Sox were not a road draw at the beginning of the season as well. And I agree Sox fans can not berate anyone in regard to attendance.

QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ May 29, 2008 -> 03:14 PM) speaking of this series. Hour and a half before game time with no game thread! where is brian! Crying over the fact he read a Lost spoiler and it ruined his night

The record is what it is. Playing on the road is tough so I hope for 2-2 but could live with 1-3. These are more important than winning in order; Buerhle - a nice start is big Swisher - he needsto show is is worht something, anything Thome - he needs to hit RHP Konerko - needsto show if he can carry on or hit the DL Consistency on offense - no 3 hit or completely shut down nights Nothing stupid that costs a game, you know that wacky s*** that happens to the White Sox when they play fast, young teams on turf or mirror the first inning yesterday.

I do not know what it is but teams seem to forget how to hit when they play the cubs. Teams just have terrible AB after terrible AB.

Know what I noticed that is cool about Ramirez. Watch how he catches groundballs. Uses two hands and gets down. Very fluid.
