QUOTE (MAX @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 10:00 PM) The fact that Nathan was throwing 98 mph high fastballs makes me think bobby was too. Yeah, I don't think the gun was off, and if it was, it wasn't off by much. It's just good to see Bobby still able to reach back and fire like that!!!!

QUOTE (hi8is @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 09:51 PM) i think their gun was turned up... i mean, i don't remember danks throwing 95... or am i wrong? I dunno. Most of Danks stuff was 92-93. Same with Blackburn. That's about right for those two guys, no?

Don't tell me I'm the only one that noticed this. I haven't seen him break 94 but maybe once or twice all year. Evidently, he still has it if he wants it....

I say the hell with Vasquez... Go with Buehrle, Floyd, Danks on 3 days rest throughout the playoffs! lol

Danks looks pumped up... Let's get him offense for once!

QUOTE (Whitewashed in '05 @ Sep 29, 2008 -> 07:19 PM) I got tickets!!! 2 for UD and I had a chance to buy more! 550 Row 6! Whitewashed....who is the girl in your avatar? lol

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 29, 2008 -> 06:19 PM) Was Alexei crying tears of joy, or is he sad DJ is leaving? Biggest game of the year, for a guy playing his first year in the majors, defecting from Cuba, and not only is that the biggest White Sox hit since 2005, it's also a new rookie record for grand slams in a year... Tears of joy is an understatement. The guy is living a dream right now. I love Alexei.

OC with another untimely error. LOL

I'd have to agree. Rookie record 4 grand slams, and a very, very good BA with RISP. I think he leads the team in that stat, actually.

Mark pitches 7, and gives up 2 runs. We score 7. Our bullpen comes in and gives up 8 runs. We lose the game tomorrow 10-7. That's my prediction.

This thread should be "who WOULDN'T you like to see gone before '09"? Because, as it stands, there's maybe 5-6 players I'd like to see back in a Sox uniform next year. I would love to see the majority of these guys never play with the Sox again.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:53 PM) We've seen the offense just fall off the table in 4 straight seasons now after the ASB. Let's go get Roberts and Figgins this offseason, and take it from there. That's what happens when half your order, and the top half at that, is 35 year old guys that just try to hit home runs...

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:48 PM) Why on earth would you not feel out what people would trade for Jenks? True, especially with Thornton able to close(IMO). Take him off my list of keepers too. lol

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:42 PM) Those of you who have given up on this team better not be taking up seats at the Cell during the playoffs. I want true fans who supported this team all the way to the finish to be the ones rooting this team to another series title. What a waste of money to watch that one game at the Cell during the playoffs, if they even make it. Because you know the Twins and Sox, regardless of who wins the central, are getting swept in the first round.

I can't support a bunch of no-heart losers like the guys on the Sox.... Just won't do it. Firesale on all but the following players: Thornton Linebrink Ramirez Quentin Buehrle Floyd Danks Everyone else can f*** off for all I care. Our big money players COMPLETELY disappeared in September. How does AJ suddenly go retard with calling pitches to Gomez/Span? Seriously. On top of his pathetic performance at the plate in September, he adds those pitch calls to the pile of s*** that was the last month of the season? Wow... Dye, Thome, Konerko, all too old to make the run at the end of the season that is necessary to win a WS. Ship them, and ship them ASAP.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:23 PM) Guys stop s***ting on Dye... the guy was amazing all year until this month. Yeah, I want a bunch of guys who have good seasons, but completely fall apart when it matters most in September... Not really. They're all old, and this is what happens to older players late in the season. Trade them while they still have some value.

rofl Watching this team in September is like watching a really, really, really slow train wreck take place. Absolutely brutal.... I'm laughing right now, it's so pathetic.

QUOTE (HeGone33 @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:11 PM) JD: Pop out Thome: Strike out Paulie: Ground out Just move those results around a bit and that's how we'll go down 1-2-3 this inning. Our big money players have been WORTHLESS this roadtrip. I wouldn't be sad to see any of them shipped out in the offseason.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:08 PM) It was like we were waiting for them to catch up. If they lose this, the part that will keep me up tonight is how we didn't throw an 0-2 hook to either Gomez or Span. I filled up on some more booze when I saw him throw the fastball when he was up 0-2 on Gomez. I almost threw up when I saw him throw it again to Span...

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:03 PM) If it is, then AJP is in on it. Seriously. We shouldn't even need runs right now. We should still be winning 6-4.

The breaking ball that he should have been throwing two batters ago...... two batters too late.

Wise still sucks.

LOL, way to break his arm Juan!

I never want to see a guy hurt, but it would have been great if that bat had drilled Mauer right in the wrist. X-rays negative TOMORROW, of course.

AJ....we don't need a HR right now. We just need to keep the line moving... Base hits...
