QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 29, 2011 -> 12:33 PM) That's about problem 457534744784174 with this organization right now. So we have 457534744784173 problems, but a Harrell ain't one?

QUOTE (SpainSOXfan09 @ May 29, 2011 -> 12:29 PM) Problem is, Harrel has not really been doing great in AAA either. hah, that's the least of our problems right now.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 29, 2011 -> 12:22 PM) It's already been a long season. You can say that again.

Come on Lilli, make this a game again...

I love Carlos, but I have come to terms with the fact that he will probably never be a consistent player. What to do with you, Carlos...

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ May 29, 2011 -> 07:56 AM) is that official? No. The Pistons are trying to play hardball and demand a player back, due to the impending lockout.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 28, 2011 -> 09:50 PM) And it's a message board. I mean what else are we supposed to talk about? I think it would serve some people good to step away and perhaps direct their anger and frustration to something more productive. Perhaps they could do some week whacking or work out. I'm certainly not saying people don't have the right to post their frustrations here, just making a suggestion.

You two should meet up one weekend and drink together.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 28, 2011 -> 05:27 PM) But at what point does a franchise realize that 2005 was over half a decade ago and the current model isn't working? That's a hypothetical. Well, considering our salary obligations, I don't know if you really can until 2013 or so...

QUOTE (WHITESOXRANDY @ May 28, 2011 -> 06:15 PM) All I know is that I'm tired of seeing this act over and over again of acquiring very expensive stars that have peaked for our pitching prospects and draft picks with little regard for investing in the franchise and player development. Right now, I would be more excited about my team if we were Tampa, K.C. , Oakland, Cincinnati, Florida, Toronto, Washington..heck even the Cubs have exciting young players at the Major League level and some more on the cusp. But now only one of those has a WS title in the last several years (Florida)...this is the price we pay for that title...thinking we can do it again versus rebuilding...

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 28, 2011 -> 05:39 PM) Now Guillen is blasting the players and saying that he and his coaches are already "drained" and it feels like it's September already! Why oh why don't they fire his ass already???! Well he does have a point. But that is what he signed up for.

I rarely chime in on threads like this because most of the time they strike me as reactionary. However, I have to admit, this coaching staff, with the possible exception of Don Cooper, seems incapable of maximizing the resources Kenny provides them with in a race against other competitors much shorter on those same resources. Ozzie, I love ya man, but you're not getting it done anymore. Promote Cooper to interim manager.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 28, 2011 -> 04:45 PM) Here goes Ranger... hilarious. What is he saying?

Jeesh, we make Patterson look like the prospect he once was...

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 28, 2011 -> 03:22 PM) I don't know. I'd rather have Floyd than the Jays bullpen right now. Yeah, but this will be another Bautista inning....

All this extra bs because Ozzie didn't have the stones to yank Dunn for Quentin.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 28, 2011 -> 02:57 PM) Santos not even close. Not sure he was really trying to be...

QUOTE (flavum @ May 28, 2011 -> 02:53 PM) It's funny, when Q didn't pinch hit for Dunn, the first thing I thought of was Ranger justifying that move. The only possible justification I can think of is that Dunn had driven in the run earlier, that maybe had he come through in that situation it might have got him going for the rest of the season...

Ratfarts.

Absolutely horrible managing. If he doesn't have the stones to take Adam Dunn out in that situation, he shouldn't be managing.

All because Ozzie didn't have the balls to show up Adam Dunn.

Who is going to play 1b? Dunn and we'll forfeit an out if the DH spot comes up again?

QUOTE (JoshPR @ May 28, 2011 -> 02:34 PM) Quentin to pinch hit please? I think I would, even though Ozzie won't have the stones. You can't PH Quentin for McPherson either, because you can't take Dunn out of the DH spot to play 1st.

He should have hit that 2-1 pitch deep to center or left.

QUOTE (soxsider11 @ May 28, 2011 -> 02:29 PM) How did the jays get davis? They traded two RP to Oakland for him.
