Moose Skowron dies
QUOTE (SAVVY18 @ Apr 27, 2012 -> 01:28 PM) Dammit. It was a blast listening to Moose on with Farmio & DJ. RIP Moose! Nothing against the guy, but when he was in the booth on the radio broadcast, I had no idea what was going on in the game. I'd be fine with whatever he did if it was on TV, because I can actually follow the game. RIP Moose.

2012 AL Central Catch-All thread
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 27, 2012 -> 03:18 PM) DELETE Stupid internet here in China while I'm using proxy/VPN to get on FB always double-clicks. There's been so many issues with it since the BO XILAI/murder mystery/corruption case broke into the public eye, and the blind human rights attorney that Christian Bale unsuccessfully tried to visit while here in China also escaped from his guards sometime yesterday to Beijing as well. FWIW, the Jason Shank at FB is from Nebraska, lives in Schaumburg, is a big Nebraska Cornhuskers fan and went to Robert Morris. You can delete posts yourself actually, there's an option when you click the edit button on your post.

2011-2012 NBA Season Thread
QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 27, 2012 -> 11:22 AM) Dejuan Blair was an absolute steal of a draft pick. And Green was always a pretty high ceiling guy. IMO Thibs did a better job because he lost 3 of his starts for a pretty significant amount of the year and still won with a bunch of no name scrubs. Are your numbers about the east/west playoff teams against other playoff teams only, or the whole division? The bottom of the east is clearly worse than the bottom of the west. Gibson, IMO, was the better steal in that draft. I wish we would have drafted Blair instead of James Johnson.

2012 Cubs thread
QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ Apr 22, 2012 -> 12:10 PM) Wasn't Bowden just considered an elite prospect? Or am I 3yrs behind? The guy went to my high school. I remember when he started against the Sox in 08. He lucked out and got the win. Then I got s*** from my government teacher since he was the varsity baseball coach when Bowden played (he knew I was a Sox fan, he's a Cubs fan).

White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
QUOTE (Marty34 @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:57 PM) Think they'll kick the tires on Mike Gonzalez after today? I hate that guy. His windup is so weird and awful to watch. He takes forever to throw a damn pitch. I think we're fine. Santiago should be a LOOGY, have Thornton or Reed close.

White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:39 PM) It's quite obvious that Santiago just cannot face right handed hitters. You cannot have that as your closer. He'd be alright in the Will Ohman role. He's made some lefties look awful.

White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:36 PM) On the plus side, our pitching has been unreal outside of the blown save. Starting pitching is exceptional. In games where Santiago has blown a save, the bullpen has given up 12 runs. In conclusion, it's Santiago's fault. He shouldn't be closing.

That sucked big time.

White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:32 PM) Yeah, that was bigger than the homer. If Santiago gets Reddick, we'd still be winning. So yes, it was a huge part of the inning.

White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:31 PM) Ok, that's enough for Santiago. I'd rather Jones close. Reed should be closing. Jones' control is still too suspect. Oh great, here's Suzuki. I've got a really bad feeling about this.

White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
Santiago looked like he had Reddick dead to rights, but couldn't finish him off. That was the big part of the inning.

White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
DUDE, really? You don't pitch to him. Smith is on deck, deal with him. GOD DAMN IT.

That one scared me, good thing Cespedes missed it.

White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
Cespedes' walk up music is dubstep...weird.
-
White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
f***! Please pitch around Cespedes.

QUOTE (jeffro2525 @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:25 PM) I think those of us still watching after all of the horrid things the Sox have done to try and lose this game are good fans... We're some of the most dedicated fans of this fanbase. Who else would stick through a game like this?

Lefties have almost zero chance against Santiago.

White Sox @ Oakland 4.25 game thread 2:35pm
QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:24 PM) I don't understand why Stoney won't do the yes. It makes it look like he hates Hawk. It's fine for him to hate Hawk, but he can't act like it. Stoney doesn't want to be thought of as a total homer. I totally understand.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:23 PM) Just don't throw the rh 4 straight fastballs. Especially not to Cespedes.

Why are they cutting to the Bulls game for like 2 minutes? What's the point?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:21 PM) Man, Lexi just drilled that pitch. Did Stoney take part in the Hawk's "yes"? I mighta been hearing things. Off to work. I hope to see a W when I get there on yahoo.com Stoney will never participate with a 'YES' from Hawk.

So after 10 years, Jim Miller still sucks.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:21 PM) His career ERA was 5.29, everybody killed him Konerko had like 4 HR against Gobble in 4 or 5 ABs. It was pretty funny.
