So far in today's rehab start for charlotte. Through 5 - Jake has given up 1 run and has fanned 6. No ideas what his pitch count is at yet. Will update as the game goes into the 6th here.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Apr 30, 2011 -> 01:05 AM) Any further information on his outing today? I guess I should look in the Peavy thread I see the game is on and peavy is pitching. I'm watching it and will update the peavy thread for those interested.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 30, 2011 -> 12:27 AM) Peavy managed more than 15 pitches in the first. That's good news. Any further information on his outing today? I guess I should look in the Peavy thread

Jackson has been on a 3 game skid, that's for sure. He isn't staying tall on his back knee for his delivery to the plate again. This was his chief issue even in growing up with the Dodgers. Hopefully it'll be straitened out and he'll begin to be nails. If not, no issue - he's gone after this year if he continues to struggle ( or re-signed at a lot less if the staff still has faith in correcting him.)

QUOTE (Wanne @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 10:16 PM) Where was the Walker quote from? An article on chisox.com

QUOTE (Maxwell @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 11:16 PM) Going forward - I expect Rios to outperform De Aza, regardless of what he has done so far this season. Totally! If he can get healthy with that toe and then get his swing back in order. He has made some solid contact lately, so that was good.

Greg Walker: If you're wondering if you have the chops... it's time to be replaced by someone who has moved beyond that doubt. Success lies on the other end of doubt and this is a very very doubtful statement. No good Walk. Tony Pena: Hey, maybe this will be a good thing - maybe Tony will have to go down for 2 weeks and we find someone to be a better replacement... like Infante down on the farm. Alex Rios: He hasn't been right all year - save the first like... 3 games. Not a good sign.

QUOTE (knightni @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 06:43 AM) Make an example wallpaper showing your skill sometime next month and we can let the members decide by vote. That sounds like a competition - I'm talking about a collaborative effort where one of us starts - sends the psd to the other - who would make some changes and additions and then send it back for the first one to again make more changes and additions etc etc - until we both are like : whoa, dude... That's bad ass - whoop whoop!! I've done Photoshop tag sessions that have lasted like 20 rounds it's fun. You can see my skills at my companies website - www.thepixelflow.com

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 29, 2011 -> 03:46 AM) I don't know how you can not blast this team for its play so far. There's really nothing positive to say, so it's either b**** a bit or just shut up. I notice there aren't many threads on here, so many have just shut up. I'd rather rip Dunn, Rios, Beckham, AJ, Jackson, the entire bullpen except Sergio cause it makes me feel better. I'd give the Sox performance in April an F. There's really no other possible grade, except F. Yea, nothing wrong with a nice rip fest... I just prefer to do so after they do something like say... Lose 12 to 3

My only suggestion would be to leave the off days blank on the calendar rather than have the sox hat Next month - for the June calendar - want to collaborate and play Photoshop tag? That'd be fun!

QUOTE (knightni @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 05:38 PM) Thoughts? The one good thing to come from white sox nation today. Very well done.

Well, that sure was lame.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 08:34 PM) Focus off the players? Our stadium will be empty this weekend. Nice thong.

Yawn. This stuff is all silly

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 06:22 AM) Dunn has to start hitting some bombs. His performance has been a factor in the Sox being a pathetic last place team so far with an offense about as exciting as Princeton's in basketball back in the day. you're quickly going to the "waaaa waaaa waaaa" crew.

QUOTE (T R U @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 07:11 AM) Not to mention the blown save extravaganza that went on earlier in the month.. yep - if the bullpen and defense had been shored up then we'd be what... 16 - 9? We'd be at least .5 up on the tribe. That's good mojo.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 05:44 AM) 10-15, last place in the division, seven back in the loss column, the mighty white sox had a helluva April. What a joke. 15 losses already. Pathetic effort from this punchless team. um - irrelevant information and perspective.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 03:47 AM) Konerko's pretty high on him, as is Q. Just saying. Written into their contracts is a "Phrase Greg Walker Clause." It states that if they give him high marks when being interviewed, that each of them gets a 500K bonus... yearly.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 28, 2011 -> 04:00 AM) Team Inconsistency. Nice.

Kill the big man!

Looks like the May game in LA against the Angels is the best case scenario right now for Jake...

Just awesome. Totally awesome.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 27, 2011 -> 02:13 AM) He almost blew it twice. Gotta love the Stealth Elf for saving the day. Even thou Santos was hit hard on those two balls - I'll take his pitch selection and the life on his arm over Matt any day right now. Bring it. Santos TIME!
