QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 14, 2011 -> 05:46 PM) Did you see the few posts prior to this where they said things some asshole might come in and say? Well, the example they gave was to thee effect of Dunn sucking it up and earn his paycheck, what I posted was the opposite, he clearly can't hit a ball to save his life and now a family member of his passed away, let him clear his head and let him grieve without taking the ball club down with him, if I'm an asshole for suggesting that, so be it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 13, 2011 -> 07:29 PM) Can you put a guy on the bereavement list and make a callup? Let's let him take 6 weeks off, it'll be good for him and the team.

QUOTE (Unknown @ Aug 12, 2011 -> 10:07 PM) "Insert opposing pitcher's name here" had good stuff tonight. Tip your cap. Fixed

Damn, come home after a 6-1 road trip and so far laying an egg vs Bruce Chen, so predictable...

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 11, 2011 -> 02:03 PM) It already is the worst signing in the history of the Sox. Those that hated Kotsay can say the same thing about Dunn. The team was hot and last night he could have helped bail us out and he goes 0-4 ... again. We can't win a division with that guy playing every day and he's gonna play about every day. f***. This is where Ozzie has to grow some balls and tell Dunn he needs to get his head outta his ass and send him down to the minors to work on his game or flat out sit his ass.Done is just brutal and he's killing us.DL him, send him to Mars, I don't know, just get him the hell away from this team!

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 7, 2011 -> 04:14 PM) "We own the White Sox." Circle that, Blylevin I really really really really dislike those two turds.

When was the last time we swept them at their house?It's been awhile. Great to beat those c*cksuckers.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Aug 7, 2011 -> 02:52 PM) This Check that, easy inning for Peavy

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 7, 2011 -> 02:50 PM) Even if they don't come in, someone needs to be up in the bullpen. This

Jake owning

Filthy off speed to Kubel, he gawn!!

For a team that bunts a lot, we sure stink at that, SMH

Nice inning JP

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 7, 2011 -> 01:33 PM) Lilli-Elf. Start him over Dunn for the rest of the season as the DH, at least against LHP. Why not? This The less we see of Adam Bum, the better...

Once upon a time Bacon had some plate discipline, now he just looks like he's up there hacking away...

lol lillibomb f*** you Dunn, that's how it's done!

f*** you Mauer

We must easily lead the league in double plays.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 7, 2011 -> 02:39 AM) Post of the Day from startribune.com sports "While we loyal fans get fleeced to the tune of $168.00 per case of beer, $56.00 per pound of hot dogs and whatever else overpriced food and beverage we purchase, plus the ticket for the game, I think we should get a little more entertainment for that much $$$$$. When the between inning video board is the highlight of the target field experience , I scratch my head in wonder. Oh Berts California math tells me our favorite Joe made approx $400,000.00 for his 4 at bats tonight. Instead of trying to book a concert the twins should book a rodeo, with all the b.s. thrown about by the manager, and management they should fit in nicely. Does anybody know if there is any decention in the clubhouse with Gardy and Joe hawking different dairys? With Slowey probably coming back, doesn' that give the guys another Guitar for there kumbayah campfire singalong. I'd like to comment on the baseball but haven't seen much in the last week." What the hell is decention?

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Aug 5, 2011 -> 09:41 PM) Let's all change our attitudes about this team starting today! We are ready to make a playoff push and the team needs our support to make it happen! Lets win it all come October! No offense but you're way too peppy for the way things have gone lately, I wish I had your confidence and I wish I could get into this team but they are more likely to drop out of the race in the next few weeks than make a push at it. Still, a nice win tonight, always nice to beat those assholes.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Aug 5, 2011 -> 08:59 AM) I just realized that the Sox did not draw a single walk in the entire four game series against NYY. Sometimes you just gotta tip your big, floppy clown cap.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Aug 5, 2011 -> 08:12 AM) There are decisions Guillen has made that other managers would not have made that are directly responsible for wins (sticking with Pierre when everyone wanted his head, and then he hits three GW hits) I'm having trouble identifying a single example in which Adam Dunn won this team a game. That's because Adam Bum hasn't contributed a damn thing to this team.

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 4, 2011 -> 05:00 PM) the first two games of the season, I was excited for our offense. heh. heh. I can't remember who wrote an article on ESPN online but he boldly predicted that the White Sox would finish the year with the most runs scored and not the Red Sox...ha!!! Honestly, I didn't think we'd outscore the BoSox but I felt us having a better rotation plus a solid top 5 offense, we would be a force to be reckoned with come playoff time. Boy, was I wrong.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 4, 2011 -> 06:30 PM) April 13th: After throwing a stressful career-high 34 pitches the night before, Ozzie has Sale start the 9th inning with a 3 run lead against the A's. Sale struggles and can't get an out, and Sox lose in extras. May 6th: With an open base in a tie game against King Felix and the Mariners, Ozzie lets Humber pitch to the only hot hitter on the Mariners at the time (Justin Smoak). Smoak doubles, and even though the Sox tie the score the next inning, the Sox go on to lose on a walkoff single. May 20th: After Santos blows a one run lead with 2 outs in the 9th against the Dodgers, Ozzie allows Santos to start the 10th. Santos clearly has nothing on his fastball, and the Dodgers smack him around the park for an easy extra inning win. May 28th: This game saw two huge blunders. First, in the 7th inning of that game, Ozzie (or Omar) has the 2nd baseman covering second on a steal attempt by one of the slowest base runners in baseball instead of staying in position with C. Patterson (a lefty hitter) up. Patterson hits a routine grounder to where the 2nd baseman should have been, and it goes for a hit. Toronto ends up taking a lead after that inning. That game goes to extras, and with a LHP on the mound and runner on 3rd with one out, Ozzie lets Dunn bat instead of Quentin. Sox lose June 4th: Against the Tigers, with 2 outs and man on third, Ozzie lets Crain pitch to maybe the 2nd best hitter on the planet in Miguel Cabrera. A home run into the right field bullpen later, the Sox lose an important game to the Tigers. June 10th: As Sergio Santos is one out away from a win against the A's, he has a complete meltdown. He allows 4 straight batters to reach with 2 outs, and clearly has no offspeed pitch and his fastball is straight as an arrow. With AJP begging Ozzie to pull him, Santos stays in the game to allowed a go-ahead 3 run double to Scott Sizemore. June 24th: In a scoreless game against the Nationals, Ozzie allows our worst bullpen pitcher (Bruney) to pitch to the red-hot Michael Morse with an open base and two outs. He homers, and despite Teahen's heroics, we end up losing the game in extras. July 17th: With the Sox looking to build momentum after the ASB, Ozzie leaves Humber in one batter too long to face VMart with runners on 2nd and 3rd, 2 outs. VMart singles in both, and Sox go on to lose by one. July 26th: In another important game against Tigers, Ozzie leaves Peavy in to start the 6th inning when the Sox are up 2-1. Not only does Peavy allow 3 runs to score, but Ozzie leaves him in to face 9 batters that inning. Sox lose 5-4 Cool story, brah Just kidding, it's 162 games and we can disect every loss on any team and on many of them you can find key moments where a manager makes or doesn't make a move that eventually costs his team the game.It happens to EVERY manager in basdball.
