alexei is a f***ing stud

QUOTE (BearSox @ Aug 5, 2008 -> 10:01 PM) speaking of rings... how awesome would it be if we could get Griffey and Thome, two of the best players (on and off the field) to play the game in the past 20 years, their first ever world series rings in the same year? tell me about it, it's all i think about everyday, and i'm serious about that griffey and thome are two of my alltime favorite players, especially thome being that i'm about 10 minutes away from where he grew up, he's a big part of rural central IL "baseball lore" you could say imagine the storylines if we made the playoffs, imagine them again if we somehow make the WS, it would be ridiculous. it would be second only to the cubs IMO

Carrasco pitching like he wants a ring, maybe the desire will spread to everyone else on our pitching staff seriously he's pitched great since we've brought him up, if he can maintain this the rest of the year I would love to see him on the club next year i understand he's a career high-4 ERA guy, but he's pitching himself into a job IMO

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 5, 2008 -> 09:52 PM) Don't you hate it when a team claws back into the game after trailing 6-1. wanna know what I hate? when our pitchers f***ing suck

hey guys, thank god we're at home lolz!! nice outing, gavin.

Joel Zumaya just named, officially, Detroit Tigers closer. http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/artic...1129/SPORTS0104

can't believe Konerko is playing 1st with Swisher on the bench, well I guess I CAN believe it, it's just ridiculous IMO

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 5, 2008 -> 04:26 PM) Only 37.1 innings in AAA. a broadcaster on.... one of the channels, i don't remember which, said they had recalled him from single-A im guessing that was misinformation

man the crowd is going to be deafening when Griffey takes the field, i wish i lived closer to chicago

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Aug 5, 2008 -> 02:04 PM) I would agree. Whisler just doesn't have major league stuff (look at K numbers, he just doesn't miss bats) and that is a recipe for disaster. Poreda is the best bet for Sox minor leaguer performing well in the majors and that is a long shot right now too because he is still young and raw and never pitched above AA as well his lack of secondary pitches. neither had Samardja for the cubs, had he?

Adam Russel recalled from Charlotte, guess he's replacing Richard

curious what the reason was to why Ozzie was suspended, was it his admission for 'protecting his players', or was it because he got into an arguement with the umpires?

4-0 in the 3rd, twins thank god they're on the road

i'm hearing 5 game suspension for guillen, for admitting he threw at hitters? i wonder if this is true or just some twins fan starting a rumor, i cant find any details on any suspensions

QUOTE (WSoxMatt @ Aug 3, 2008 -> 09:23 PM) Appaently the White Sox received an apology from the umpires today...After reviewing the tape of the game, they decided that Carassco was not throwing at Olivo afterall...FWIW, its not often any employee of MLB admits they were wrong i wonder if any sox players or ozzie will be getting any fines/suspensions then? and only Olivo+Greinke will be receiving them?

we face better teams. they face the cellar.

Jose will save us

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 3, 2008 -> 03:28 PM) Apparently we're leaving Boone out there to die before his demotion. fortunately, we have a plethora of arms to bring up to replace him

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Aug 3, 2008 -> 03:15 PM) We'll have our Liriano on the White Sox......in 2013, when he's washed up. lol

twins broadcasters eating bugs again, putting the microphone near their mouth when they chew, disgusting

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 3, 2008 -> 03:08 PM) It's the only thing left (along with the offense outside of today) that would make you think the Sox still have a chance, but it's the only thing that counts. you don't think these two teams are heading in opposite directions?

the funniest thing about this game is how we lost we didn't give anybody any doubts that we were still a competitive team by losing 5-4, or having a stellar outing by our young left hander and then the bullpen gets lit up a little bit we were just flat out brutally terrible, we're gonna have to play some outstanding baseball to make a lot of people think this team still has a chance. Liriano dominating today just makes the twins look like the team to beat, even more

QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Aug 3, 2008 -> 02:52 PM) I'm ready to throw at joesaiditstrue. i'm scurred

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 3, 2008 -> 02:51 PM) You don't throw at people/teams because they are kicking your butt. But you do throw at them when they are doing the stuff the Royals are today. There is a very big difference, if we were just down by a big margin today and we threw at them, I'd have not liked it and said it was lame and a pathetic waste of time. However, when your opponent is kicking your butt AND trying to bunt for hits and steal bases and pimping home runs even though they never hit them, something probably needs to be done. oh, like we did to the Cardinals in 2006 at the cell? people have ridiculously selective memories.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Aug 3, 2008 -> 02:47 PM) have you ever watched a baseball game before? When you're up 8 runs, and are posing for homeruns, bunting, stealing 3rd....about a 75% chance you're getting beaned. But as always, when the Sox/Ozzie do something like this, its because we are a classless team. If its the cubs, they are just showing some of Lou's latin passion. crybaby sh** right there, pitch well, beat these terrible teams stop making excuses for this bullsh*t.
