Good god, I hope that was a hit and run. Beckham almost threw out his back swinging....

Nice bunt attempt Alexei. I think he was trying to bunt it into RF.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 02:43 PM) I get way too excited for a single by Beckham, but I'll take it! That's because every time he gets a hit, we all think "This is it! He has figured it out!" And I would be lying if I say I didn't think that as soon as he got the single.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 02:38 PM) Choo would look good in a White Sox uniform. Or a Korean army outfit.

If we fire Ozzie any time soon, just let Hawk manage the team for s***s and giggles. He has been the GM, might as well let him manage before his career is over.

I think 2007 was worse because of the expectations and fact that the prior 2 years were amazing. Coming into this year, most people expected somewhere around .500.

I think I just saw a fan leave the scout seats and give the finger to the field. Haha.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 01:54 PM) That was an awfully good play by Pierre getting to that ball. Fangraphs has Pierre as the best defensive LF in the MLB this year according to UZR/150. Rios comes out to be the 2nd best defensive CF in the MLB this year according to UZR/150. Quentin comes out to be the 2nd WORST defensive RF in the MLB this year according to UZR/150. What a difference that makes.....

Morel is 1-2 right now with a 2B and a run scored. Danks is 0-3, 1 K Viciedo is 1-2 w/ and RBI Flowers is 0-1 w/ a BB

Well.....this is just awful......good god this season sucks....

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 12:58 AM) Cubs are going to take him if the Mets don't. After listening to Hawk and Stone today, we'll never take a high school pitcher in the first round, and any high school player seems questionable in the first round. Well, he also plays SS and C. And according to my friend who knows O'Conner and has played baseball w/ him, he actually prefers to be a position player because he is a real good hitter. And SS and C are very weak in our system (unless Flowers pans out).

BREAKING NEWS: White Sox have traded C A.J. Pierzynski + cash to Texas Rangers for minor league pitcher Zach Phillips

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 12:47 AM) According to Pillere, Mets are leaning towards taking O'Connor over Choice. I guess McGuire's stock is back up after a dominant performance tonight. No, no, no, no, no! I am pulling for the Sox to take O'Conner!

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jun 5, 2010 -> 10:34 PM) Take this FWIW. A friend of mine who works security told me A.J.'s locker was cleaned out when he was in the clubhouse before the game. I'm sure our local media will have the scoop. Emailed it to mlbtraderumors for s***s and giggles, but I guess we will find out in 12 hours if AJ is in the lineup or not.....

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jun 5, 2010 -> 11:37 PM) I don't see what did he say that was so bad? Not trying to defend him just not seeing what you guys are? Same here, I don't see anything to make me think he doesn't want to be here.....

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 5, 2010 -> 11:32 PM) For as well as Rios is playing, his contract starts getting into astronomical territory the next few seasons. With that being said, no way does he get traded. Huh? Rios is set to make $12 in 2011 and 2012, and $12.5M in 2013 and 2014...... That's Paul Konerko money. I would have to say that a speedy, defensively gifted CF who has good power is more valuable than a power hitting 1B who has absolutely no speed. Also, so far this season, Rios is already been worth $11.7M (according to FanGraphs) and the season is only 1/3 over.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Jun 5, 2010 -> 11:13 PM) I would be willing to trade everyone with the exception of Danks, Beckham, and Santos. I think we need to seriously consider dealing Rios. I disagree soo much. Look how long it took us to finally get a competent CF out there. Not only does he have power, but he has the speed and defense for CF. I would file Rios under UNTOUCHABLE, along with Beckham. Everyone else is expendable, really.

I am an idiot. I have been weighing myself w/o shoes on, like I was when I was back at school. Starting Weight (4/7/10) - 272 LB Current Weight (6/510) - 260.5 LB Total Loss: 11.5 lbs Went to the gym for the first time today. I replaced the kettle weights w/ the stair master. Stair master is not worth it methinks. Lost only like 46 calories in 5 minutes, and my legs were killing me. When I do the eliptical, I bang out about 210 calories in 13 minutes.

I am very close to giving up completely now...... Losing to the Indians is f***ing pathetic. I know how the Cubs fans feel now with their 1-7 record vs. Pirates....

GIVE ME A f***ING BREAK JIM!! If this was the Cubs game, probably would be PiP right now (like it should be).

This is the first game that Castro has caught of Peavy's, right? 7 IP, 6 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 3 K I (and others), have been calling for Castro to catch Peavy for over a month now. I see it finally happens, and Peavy gets good results. Can we please make it a routine? Not like we are really missing AJ's offense, hell, Castro has our only RBI this game....

Morel is really not adjusting well so far. It's not even been a week though, but only 1 hit. Thankfully, only 1 strikeout though too.

Ok, I finally got it. I had to reclick the link on the very first post and click the "Book Reservation" button or w/e the 3rd step says. I was clicking the link on the left side, and it was not activating the discount. $75 a night is real nice, but then it says "Extra $10 per adult starting with the 3rd adult", which puts me back at $95 a night which is basically the same as it costs me on the other site. Oh well. It's a good discount if it's just two people though.
