QUOTE (letsgoarow @ Sep 2, 2008 -> 07:43 PM) no. i would say Q has been decent, jackass Alexei has been money, no doubt about that. But he was a rookie signing. We took a chance on Quentin and we got lucky. Thankfully, his injury bugs seem to be behind him and he's back to form. But Kenny expected very little out of him, and he even stated when we acquired CQ, that he was still looking for upgrades in the outfield. We acquired OC and Swisher just so Kenny could claim "big" offseason acquisitions, and both of those deals sucked, IMO. I'd rate our offseason moves as poor to average. We gave up a lot more than we got in return. Certainly, our "big" deals didn't pan out how they should have, for what we gave up. Sweeney may turn out to be a better player than Swisher, and Gio may be a legit #2 starter.... We could definitely use Garland right now...

QUOTE (SoxPride56 @ Sep 2, 2008 -> 07:41 PM) Boone needs to go to hell!!! Who put him in the game? That is who should be blamed. Every White Sox fan watching this game sighed in disbelief as soon as he took the mound. We all knew what was coming next.

Boone Logan..... LOL That's really all I can say about it. Ozzie managed this game terribly.

Swisher and OC have been total disappointments this year. I can't stand either of them. I certainly hope Kenny has some better moves this upcoming offseason, or you can forget about playoffs next year. Right now, we're really lucky that Detroit and Cleveland have had terrible seasons.

Did we just lead off the inning with a double, and then fail to even move him over to 3rd?

Thornton needs to shut these guys down quick and get Soria back on the field in the next few minutes. By the way, I like Brian Anderson better than anyone else on this team for CF. I can't believe I'm saying that... heh Edit: Way to throw a cookie out there Matt.

Look at Uribe making Soria work hard. Even if he doesn't get a hit, this is a good at bat, draining their closer for the 9th.... Make him throw 20 pitches. lol

Can anyone tell me why Buehrle started today? Didn't he just start on Tuesday? I mean, he's a pretty heavy guy, he just pitched 3 days ago, and it is like 98 degrees in KC with a 110 degree heat index... He also had some sore shoulder problems a while back. He shouldn't have been starting today, in my opinion. The last thing we need is him getting hurt, and you could tell he had spaghetti arm today. Especially with Toby Hall catching.... He calls a brutal game behind the plate.
