Doyle continues to dominate. Blair Walters had a nice start, and Castro was awesome.

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 28, 2012 -> 05:52 PM) My question is, why the hell did Joe Maddon sit 3 of his best hitters today? I know that Sale's lefty and those hitters are lefties, but you shouldn't take 3 of your best guys out of the lineup. That just seems a little excessive. Maybe he was trying to give them Memorial day off or something, lol. Especially considering lefties hit Sale better than righties.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 28, 2012 -> 02:46 PM) Har Har So I went to my buddy Jason's house right after work on Saturday and for the purpose of the story you need to know that his gf's name is Meaghann. Anywho, I get over there and he tells me that he needs to go to Meaghann's for a little bit cause she has a friend in town that she wants Jason to meet. So obviously my first two questions were "Is she hot?" "Is she single?" He tells me that he never met her so he doesn't know if she's hot but no she's not single, she has a boyfriend. So I end up meeting her later in the day, and pretty cute so just got to get around the whole boyfriend thing. A few hours later at the bar, she's just all over me and Jason comes up to me and goes "so she just told Meaghann that she really likes you and was looking for a reason to break up with her boyfriend." So I took her home. I'm pretty awesome. I also spent $400 on booze this weekend. Seriously awesome. This story. I like it.

QUOTE (kev211 @ May 28, 2012 -> 01:26 AM) The A's have 6 years of rights to Cespedes just like any other player. Once the 4 years are up though he's in arbitration for 2 years like any other player would be. No, his deal specifically stated that he would be granted free agency at the end of his 4 years. Basically, he is treated as a veteran.

QUOTE (Cali @ May 27, 2012 -> 07:34 PM) Apparently it was not too much to ask for a sweep 3rd of the year. How many did they have all last year or 2010 even? Doesn't seem like they had that combined haha Even with Gavin sucking, I still felt like they were gonna win this one. Good on ya Boys.... During the insane 19-4 stretch or whatever it was, I'm sure there were at least 3 sweeps in there.

Ahhhhhh damn! Two outs on the basepaths this inning. Our offense is unreal right now!

Also, an incredibly lucky throw/bounce to third. The ball was CAUGHT on his thigh.

Oh man, Viciedo......lazy play right there. Damnit!

QUOTE (fathom @ May 27, 2012 -> 04:04 PM) His balance at the plate is awesome right now. He's not lunging over the plate on inside pitches. It's amazing that he is on pace for like 33 HR this year after how awful he looked in April.

KONG!!!!!!!!!!!!

And then Kipnis dinks one in to left too. Good god Gavin, you are terrible today.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 27, 2012 -> 03:30 PM) I didn't know you're allowed to slide 15 feet in front of the bag. Neither did I. I thought you could only slide when you are within reach of the bag. No?

That replica statue of Fisk looks awesome.

Aleexxeeeiiiiii!

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 26, 2012 -> 10:03 PM) Unless your a fan of the Red Sox and their affiliate, "we" didn't do anything. Lol, I didn't even read anything but Bundy's line. Whoops!

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ May 27, 2012 -> 12:22 AM) And if someone is calling someone an asshole they probably deserve less. I delivered pizza in college and didn't get mad at anyone for a s***ty tip. If I got no tip I wasn't happy but that's life. No need to call someone an asshole because they don't tip what you want them to. They don't have to tip at all. I'm not a server, so it doesn't affect me any, but I'm just saying, servers are pretty damn pissy with anything less than 20%, and I find that a product of the awful tipping system we have now-a-days, where servers RELY on tips to make good money. Tips should be a bonus, not a reliance.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 27, 2012 -> 12:14 AM) And because every time I see "Paul Konerko under investigation" as the newest thread, I want to harm someone. VOTE HERE: http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/mlb/events...-asgballot-2012 And anyone know how I can acquire MLB highlights? I want to make a White Sox 2012 video. Also, everyone vote O-Dog to start 2B for the NL. Download Realplayer and the "Realplayer downloader". You can download practically every single piece of video or audio on the internet, including MLB/NHL/NFL/YouTube, or almost any other site.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ May 26, 2012 -> 09:22 PM) Dumbest thread ever

QUOTE (That funky motion @ May 26, 2012 -> 09:13 PM) The title of this made my freak out. 'Twas the point, my friend!

Also, Mitchell went 3/3. Hitting .288 now.

We really f***ed Bundy up.....seriously. He had 30 SCORELESS innings, allowing 5 hits, 2 BB, and 40 K. Today he went 5 innings, gave up 6 H, allowed TWO runs, and had only 6 K. He got ROCKED! lol

In a move that was no surprise to anyone, Paul Konerko is currently being investigated for computer parts. His hot start to the season at age 36 was suspicious enough, but after being hit in the "eye" with a pitch last Friday vs. the Cubs, Konerko proceeded to hit .600 with 2 HR, 4 2B, and 6 RBI in the following week. This amazing feat is what really caught the eye of commish Bud Selig. Selig said he plans to transport Konerko to a nearby testing facility in St. Louis where it was determined that Albert may have also been of the Android variety just a few years ago. This picture surfaced earlier in the day, which shows Konerko playing backyard baseball with his "little brother". It's not confirmed, but it appears to have been taken before he had his human shell made, that he uses today. In a statement about the matter, Konerko said, "Beep boop beep boop boop", and then proceeded to scratch out a series of 1's and 0's in to the podium. Stay tuned for continuous updates as this story unfolds.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 25, 2012 -> 10:49 AM) Facebook is so vastly overrated. It's useful to share pictures and news about yourself, but who honestly goes onto facebook to view a product or business? I mean, I hate facebook and the entire idea behind it ("Look at me! Look! Look! Over here!") so perhaps i'm a little biased in thinking this way. I do. A lot of local bars and restaurants that have sprung up recently do not have a website, but have a FB page. I can think of 3-4 places off the top of my head that I have checked out their FB pages for to find out drink specials, locations, hours, what people are saying about it, pictures of the place, etc. Products? No, probably not because any product sold by a company, probably have a company website, but local businesses seem to gravitate toward FB a lot more than making an actual website.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 26, 2012 -> 01:05 AM) Axlerod had a decent start and there's always DeAza ,Viciedo and Sale. Reed , Santiago, Jones. Now Quintana. De Aza was not a product of our system. He was a Marlins guy.
