Sox/Cubs game cancelled. I was looking forward to seeing Peavy.

QUOTE (elgonzo4sox @ Mar 7, 2010 -> 12:11 AM) Me too. But it looks like the Cubs are going to be a disaster this year, so beating them may not mean much. They have 2 key injured pitchers (Lilly and Guzman) already. Soriano is still flubbing balls in left field. The Ghost of Milton Bradley (Carlos Silva) will make Cubs fans regret they ran Milton out of town. Lou is as clueless as ever. It's heading for disaster, and for Sox fans, it will be as funny as watching the Three Stooges. Funny you mention that. My buddy texted me during the game and said "I love watching Soriano in the outfield. He is like all three stooges wrapped into 1"

I don't recall ever hearing Damon talk, but does he have a mental problems and speech impediment? http://mlbnetwork.mlb.com/media/video.jsp?content_id=7171759 He seems be at lost for words and how to form a sentence, then when he starts talking, he sounds like he has speaking problems.....

QUOTE (elgonzo4sox @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 08:27 PM) Nice win today versus our inept northside neighbors and their train wreck of a pitching staff. Watching the 3 televised games so far this spring, I like these 2010 White Sox. The aggressive base running is putting pressure on the opposing pitcher, catcher and defense, and creating opportunities. It's great to see one single (if preceded by a walk and a steal) produce a run, instead of the 3 hits it often took in the past. The Sox defense looks better, and the pitching looks solid (welcome to the Sox J.J. Putz). It's still early in the spring, but I like what I see. I know Ozzie is having everyone run, just to see what they can do. But I find it pretty encouraging that as a team, we are 10 for 11 in SB.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 05:41 PM) As well as Flowers. Those would be my 3 "untouchables." Unfortunately, we have a razor thin system and the chances of landing an impact bat without including at least two of those guys is pretty much zero. You just wait until we draft Bryce Harper!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 04:52 PM) Man I can't wait to start tracking Mitchell. I think we've got a future stud. Hope to god we don't trade him. Mitchell and Hudson are 2 guys we REALLY need to try and hang on to I think.

Man, Viciedo looked awful in his last at-bat.

No idea who #83 is. The box score even refuses to acknowledge him. NVM, I found him.... http://thebaseballcube.com/players/S/Brandon-Short.shtml

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 03:51 PM) Everytime I hear Len Casper, this image comes to mind. Holy crap, you are right!

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 03:44 PM) as i laughed, they just started piling up in my mind: guzman, prior, wood, hill, choi, patterson, pie lol Prior and Wood were legit.

Bob Brenley calls not wanting to have Live BP vs. Marmol a "veteran move". The rest of us call that a "p**** move"

If we did not have a garden gnome at SS, he would have caught that line drive off of Torres.

QUOTE (Real @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 03:19 PM) Tied at 3-3. Pierre grounds out on a bunt attempt, 1 down. Beckham singles on a sharp linedrive to RF. Pierzynski grounds out to 2nd, Beckham advances to 2nd. 2 down. Finally Beckham with his first hit of the spring. Took him 2 games!

I don't know if Andruw is taking it easy, or he is semi-hurt. But he sure seems to be taking his sweet time around the bases.

Torres looked nice in his 1 inning. Came back from 3-0 to strike out him out. 0 H, 0 BB, 2 K's in the inning.

Good work Bobby.

Not a very good looking throw by JorDanks there.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 02:49 PM) Not with one bunt single he didn't It was a joke because Ozzie loves the players who can bunt and "grind out" hits.

Cubs are getting a couple weak little hits in the infield. And Scales throwing his elbow over the plate on that HBP. Hudson still looking good. EDIT: Make that 3 little hits through the infield.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 02:35 PM) i realize its spring training, but seeing what danks, flowers, hudson,viciedo etc, are capable of doing, how promising they look, doesnt that make you think a little twice about trading them (and more) away for agone? No, it makes me think there is even more of a shot at us getting A-Gon. Raise that stock boys!

Uh oh. Perfect bunt by Lillibridge. I think he just made the team.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Mar 6, 2010 -> 02:18 PM) LOL, listening to Len and Bob attempt to spin the Carlos Silva situation as a positive while he was getting smacked around was hysterical. They said Silva had a sub-par season last year.....as they flash his 8.60 ERA and more walks than strikes "He also rarely ever walks anyone". lol

Reifert says the Sox/LA game will be tape delayed and played at 6 PM on MLB network, not live at 2.

We need to just make a thread for White Sox tweets.... Teahen, sticking it to the Chubbies! Teahen was talking about how he helped fund a new ballpark in KC for the youth or something, and then he got this reply... "Some fan: Cool? Then get yr ass 2 northside help build bball court n my backyard 4CHARITY Teahen: My ass & I only go 2 Northside 2 beat the Cubs"

Ok, ok. Nice to see some life now.
