CBS Chicago: "Source: Pierzynski will not be suspended for PEDs"

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Sep 6, 2012 -> 12:16 AM) Nope, not rooting for Mizzou in the least. Let's Go Dawgs!!!

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 09:19 PM) Yankees beat the Rays. Orioles lose too. That was fun while it lasted. I can't believe Kuroda moved from the NL West & Dodger Stadium to the AL East and has the exact some numbers.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 10:16 PM) Giants do not look so Superbowl-ish They didn't really last year until the playoffs started. I figured they'd win tonight, because the defending champ always wins this opener, but I thought they would miss the playoffs this year.

Kickball has begun

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 08:37 PM) If that's the case he didn't do enough of them. He did enough them to sign an 5 year, $60 million contract that was a total bust

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 08:35 PM) We had Pablo 2005* And Aaron Rowand. (Although he was never caught)

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 08:26 PM) At least some other team wouldn't have won a ton of games thanks to a suspended guy. Giants, As get that treatment already. Who cares? Just because other teams didn't have suspensions, in no way does that mean their roster is clean. Nearly every recent WS champion has had a PED user. It's part of the era.

After games on September 5th: (off day September 6th) White Sox: 26 (26 games left) FRI: KC (Mendoza) @ CWS (Liriano) 7:10 Tigers: 28 (26 games left) FRI: DET (Scherzer) @ LAA (Santana) 9:05

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 07:07 PM) ROIDS They do say that steroids cause a person to be more susceptible to injury

And just like that, the Angels sweep the unbeatable Athletics in Oakland

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 05:01 PM) Yay! We win, so I'm still in. I go day to day in my fandom. And they don't play tomorrow, so you are in then too. Then, the Royals come to town.

QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 05:38 PM) I've noticed this too. I can't figure it out because it makes just as much sense to go crazy over it in the media. I wonder if that would change if a Tom Brady-esque figure got caught. That's probably a big reason. Shawn Merriman & Brian Cushing are/were good players, but not on the same level as Manny, Bonds, A-Rod, etc. Another thing could be that people kind of expect football players to be juiced based on the nature of the sport and size of the athletes?

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 05:35 PM) Never watch any football game. Common sense tells you guys that big don't run that fast. But what's funny is that nobody cares as much about guys that get busted in the NFL. They sit out 4 games, come back, and it's almost like it never happened. In MLB, anything you will ever do in your career is forever scarred.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 05:05 PM) I dont think Ive ever seen Jenks just randomly throw s*** out there... I dont think Ive ever seen him post in Pale Hose Talk before

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 05:03 PM) Well, that's too bad. If this is true, I wonder if Selig would take the stance of making the Sox forfeit every game AJ hit a homer in after surpassing last year's HR total. If AJ did this, it definitely showed in his power numbers. Don't worry greg, it's not the NCAA where they try to magically pretend like games never happened.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 04:56 PM) Not saying I don't believe you, but bringing up Gimenez would have happened no matter what due to the September callup deadline. and they needed a backup catcher for Flowers paternity leave.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 03:42 PM) I may not be too far off here. The Sox aren't gonna be a WC team, AL Central champs all the way!

Sole possession of 1st place for at least the next 55 hours or so, guaranteed.

DFA Thornton!!!

Myers in to pitch the 7th, not the 9th. Is everyone finally happy??

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 02:59 PM) Going to need some fans to show up the next 7 games at home. Weird schedule this year...19 games after this homestand and only one more home set left? What's so weird about 12 more road games, 7 more home games?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 02:55 PM) Stubhub had premium lower boxes for $5 last night and $7 today. The games I go to, those tickets are never cheaper than $35$40 on StubHub, damnit!

attendance - 17,336. More than last night, wow!

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 5, 2012 -> 01:47 PM) That Vasquez guy they started over the weekend was awful. That's what happens when your 5 opening day starters are no longer on the 40-man roster come September.
