QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 09:22 PM) Sale will be I hope it's at least Sale and Quintana. Maybe Danks will be back by then as well, although I hear he had some shoulder soreness today (ugh).

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 09:19 PM) Sucks we face Greinke and Gallardo instead of guys like Fiers I'm hoping we have Sale and Peavy going in that series, but I don't think it will happen.

QUOTE (Tex @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 08:50 PM) I'm not too certain about that. He is about the lowest rated manager by most posters here, yet the Marlins and their fans were practically dancing in the streets to get him. They valued him much higher than Sox fans. So it seems like we underrated him compared to Marlin ownership and fans. At least when he was announced as their manager. In reality they probably overrated him and we underrated him. Time will tell who was closer to reality. The Marlins don't have fans.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 09:17 PM) We've got a tougher interleague stretch than Detroit or Cleveland this week It gets easier for us next week. Cubs and Brewers.

Durant and Westbrook have been awful so far. Harden is keeping the Thunder somewhat in it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 02:53 PM) Stop sucking out of the stretch, Gavin. Everyone's hitting like an MVP against Gavin when he's in the stretch. I believe opponents have a .400+ wOBA when they face him in the stretch. It's freaking ridiculous.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 02:36 PM) His curve was f***ing awesome in his last start. So was Humber's. Unfortunately, both got lit up by a team that just struck out 14 times without getting on base against Cain.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 02:16 PM) I do not understand, truly do not, how you guys can despise a man that led the White Sox to the only World Series we are gonna win in our lifetimes. Chicago baseball historically is that bad and does NOT figure to change anytime soon. Do you realize how tough it is to win a WS? He was our leader. I call B.S. He could have gone elsewhere and would have if he disliked Ozzie. Nobody else will offer him his number * 1,000,000. Not even close. C.J. Wilson got less money than him and Wilson is a superior pitcher.

QUOTE (Cali @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 12:25 PM) Just watching a little bit of this Indians/Reds game... How are the Indians still competitive in the division? They really don't have a great team. Talk about smoke and mirrors... Yet, they're hanging around. So better team than we give them credit for? or Just a s***ty division? They don't have good starting pitching. They don't hit for power. They do however, get on base and they have a pretty good back end of the bullpen.

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 11:14 AM) Just Go With It Bucky Larson Jack and Jill That's My Boy That's about as bad a 2 year stretch as anyone has ever had. Jesus. I though That's My Boy actually looked better than those previous Sandler movies, but I guess not.

QUOTE (robinventura23 @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 11:52 AM) Gavin Floyd looks like Daniel Tosh Now if he had Daniel Tosh's brain, things would be a lot better.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 12:10 PM) Would it surprise anyone if Verlander no-hit the Cubs today? Kate Upton on alert. 2K should make a new MLB 2K12 commercial if Verlander does throw a perfect game. It'll show Kate Upton letting him into the perfect club and giving him a lap dance. xD

QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Jun 13, 2012 -> 04:18 PM) lulz It appears that the biologist must have a thing for alien penises.

QUOTE (sunofgold @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 10:48 AM) GF is from Iowa? I did not know that. Then "if you build it, he will come." C'mon Gavin Droid. You have to fill that void. The void is the area between our outstanding starters and our sucky starters. Just get a quality start in there. We should be able to 'put it on the board' against the anti-Jake. Just.win.it! GO.WHITE.SOX! Floyd is from Maryland. Gavin is far from a robot, he's too inconsistent to be one.

QUOTE (Tex @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 10:35 AM) I am a little confused on the Ozzie vote. It could mean that Oz is a joke, poor manager, not liked, and not respected because of it. Or, it could mean he is much better than he is given credit for and the delta between the respect he deserves and what he receives, is greater than any other manager. The latter would mean that he's underrated, which is definitely NOT the case.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 10:25 AM) I'd be much more scared of the Tigers making a big move on Ryan Dempster than Carlos Quentin. Ryan Dempster is meat in the AL. It'll just be like when the Tigers traded for Jarrod Washburn a few years back. He was great in Seattle, sucked with Detroit.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 08:31 AM) Oh, when did you meet him? I got his autograph once. He told me that he was scheduled to be hurt 3 starts at a time.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 09:37 AM) Greg, do you really think many of the players give a s*** about Ozzie's Castro comments anyways? Alexei seemed like he didn't give two s***s about it...and he's from Cuba.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 09:13 AM) You would think that the Tigers would want to hold on to their pitching Dombrowski will do just about anything to upgrade that team. Ilitch wants to win badly.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 08:14 AM) Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin Dunn rolled his ankle on Tuesday's homer. Unsure for Thursday. Actually showed us video of how it happened postgame He did swing pretty damn hard on that one, lol.

Love the Floyd and Hawkeye comparison. xD

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 09:07 AM) Maybe the votes against Ozzie were misunderstood. Heath Bell means no disrespect. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,3301758.story Why didn't Ozzie just leave him in the game, it was 10-2? Bell sucks anyhow, you're not going to shatter his confidence by letting the Red Sox score a few runs off him.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 13, 2012 -> 11:52 PM) Arias looked scared s***less on that last play. That's just how he plays defense. He makes everything look so rushed.

Wow, I completely missed the perfect game. Blah.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 13, 2012 -> 09:56 PM) Cubs changed rotation around, so Sox won't face Samardzija next week. Looks like somebody pleaded to the manager so he wouldn't have to get beaned.
