QUOTE (oldsox @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 05:06 AM) Just saw that Erik Johnson had his first start with Pads. Lost to Rockies, going 4.2, 5 runs, 5 hits, 2 walks. That sucks, I hope he does well for them.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 02:59 PM) You do know that wasn't called from the bench don't you? He was bunting for a hit. Urg. Melky. Originally I was mocking the fact that it's the top video currently shown on the white sox site. Didn't know it was on Melky until recently. Melky fail. Frazier fail x2. Lawrie fail. Fukame.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 02:50 PM) This bunting thing sure is working great. Highlight reel worthy. So brilliant to take the bat out of your three hitters hand in the first inning.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 09:04 AM) Tim Anderson doesn't wear 44 dude. Brian the boy wonder pimp machine who sucked at baseball did.

It's absurd when your teams video highlight on their website for their most recent game is a f***ing sac bunt. Edit: one which didn't even amount to a single run as well. Blah.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 12:18 PM) The idea was to go deeper in the game with fewer pitches. Has that occurred? By like 6 IP but he does has 3 complete games compared to 0 at this time last year.

That was just awful.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 05:59 AM) How long did it take you to come up with that name for a comparison? Is he related to Troy McClure?

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 12:12 AM) (although I was taking a piss when it happened). Shame on your dick. Well, bladder... But, yah.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 10:41 PM) He's got a little waggle in his swing there, but obviously it didn't stop him from turning around that pitch. That was my concern with Collins when I started looking at his swing. The hands. Why not keep them stationary and just go straight to the ball.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 09:20 PM) <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"> Thanks Q. That was a mistake pitch and Collins didn't miss it. 93 mph straight as f*** belt high up and on the inner half. That's the worst pitch I've seen Dunn throw actually. ( Shows how little of him I've seen too. )

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 08:23 PM) Wish I could find video Hah - I've been doing the same for 30 minutes

Wow. Killer. I'll gladly be wrong if he comes close to hitting his ceiling.

You can't argue with what we've seen so far. First at bat laid off a nice breaking ball. Showed good range at short to his left once. I dig.

Maybe we can trade Carson Fulmer for Trayce Thompson.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 12:20 PM) The way things have been going for the White Sox ... poor Anderson will be nervous and have several errors in the first inning and we'll get our asses kicked by the Royals and the fans will boo as they did Shields. Hate to be so negative but the Sox do that to you. I can't even remember the last high pick position player who came up. It was what... Beckham? Don't remember who was before that. Hopefully Anderson proves different and lights the world on fire, f*** it. Not saying that's probable but here's for hoping. At least in 24 hours Hahn has said, "oops. I f***ed up." Twice. He's holding himself accountable and taking action... That's all I can ask at this point. Responsibility.

QUOTE (CB2.0 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 12:04 PM) Who are you to wave your finger? Must be out your head... Eyehole deep in muddy waters, you practically raised the dead. Anyway, we were talking about Shields. Or rather, I was b****ing about that signing (again). You're showing your age as a tool fan Really thou - Shields has nothing to do with Anderson or Rollins... Hommie.

Wishful thinking: Sox win Yankees win Angels win Sox back to 2.5 gb of first and alone in second. The beginning of a 9 game winning streak. Hope returns.

QUOTE (CB2.0 @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:39 AM) Right! Which means that with Latos at #5 for $3M and only this year committed...was this move really necessary? No. Tim Anderson doesn't pitch and is making league minimum.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 10, 2016 -> 11:31 AM) FutureSox ‏@FutureSox 1m1 minute ago Jameson Fisher had 105 walks and 83 strikeouts in 823 plate appearances in his college career. That's one of the best stats I've read all month!

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 10:10 PM) Thank goodness. Can you believe the Albers story? All those scoreless innings and all that praise and love in April. Eight weeks later, bye bye from all of baseball cause he's so so bad. He ought to go to a personal trainer, lose 15 pounds and try it again with SOME OTHER TEAM. You must know caufield was BSing, yacksamajiz

Finally. Push them chips in boys. Beyond time for some accountability ( as we all know ).

QUOTE (chisox802 @ Jun 9, 2016 -> 02:33 PM) For what it's worth once again (in the Mat Latos thread I stated aprox. 20 minutes before it was announced that my buddy who works for the sox & bulls said that this was being announced today or tomorrow), he also said this. This move is solely in case they are not able to land a big bat, which unless the wheels continue to completely fall off they will make every effort to. What took you so long to join Soxtalk, prodigal son?

f***all

I said it before: if I could hit him, stay away. Pray he can turn it around.
