For some reason Mark Teahen is a guy i really want to succeed. Just not against the Sox. I'm the same way with Gordon and Greinke. I hate everyone else on this damn team.

Pods with a sac fly. 7-4

Chris Getz is a smart baseball player. Not a grinder, not run by intangibles, he just has a great mind for the game.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ May 5, 2009 -> 06:28 PM) Josh Fields leaves me too nervous over there at 3rd. He's absolutely a candidate for trade if he has another year of good power, mediocre avg, mediocre D. All i see on gameday is that the guy grounded out to third. Sounds like Fields made the play, what happened?

QUOTE (Reddy @ May 5, 2009 -> 06:21 PM) there's a certain flaw in your logic... Alexei could hit the homer, prior to this year, prior to sucking. Better? Look we can do this sacrificing arguement all day, i have an irrational hatred of the sacrifice bunt, especially in the AL, we'll leave it at that. I operate under the Earl Weaver rules of baseball, and this White Sox team seems succeeds by doing that as well.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ May 5, 2009 -> 06:18 PM) Yeah, f*** having 2 RISP with 1 out. We live and die by hitting the s*** out of the ball. Alexei can hit the homer, we're not going to sacrifice that by... sacrificing in the first couple innings.

Our lineup sure looks different with our starting 3B and RF in it, doesn't it? Screw that! EVERYBODY PANIC!!!!!!!

How well did Fields hit the homer?

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ May 5, 2009 -> 05:56 PM) Why the f*** was he not bunting??? Because the bunt is a useless play?

QUOTE (tommy @ May 5, 2009 -> 01:43 PM) Dye and Fields back in the lineup. We're back in business, folks.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 5, 2009 -> 01:11 PM) It's just that rebuilding years suck. If you don't like this year, you're going to hate the next two. This is not a rebuilding year, this is a slump. WEEK.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 5, 2009 -> 01:38 PM) ESPN insider reporting that the Sox have talked to Pedro... I don't know about stuff, but his personality would be a perfect in our clubhouse. As long as he doesn't hit .219...

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 5, 2009 -> 01:30 PM) I can too. i i And upside down ! i What wizardry is this????

QUOTE (beautox @ May 5, 2009 -> 01:32 PM) what about HICUP? Hudson Infante Carter Upchurch Poreda? haha NEVER! Poreda is part of his own acroynm. With Clayton Richard! Read the signature, Damnit!!!

Two things: Tim Lincecum's father needs to be employed somewhere in baseball, and Sean Marshall's curve is sick. You can really see how Rich Hill and Sean Marshall were similiar pitchers, but with dramatically different mindsets.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 5, 2009 -> 11:10 AM) , yet love Josh Fields and also said Ryan Sweeney was garbage because he didn't hit enough home runs. Are you really arguing that Ryan Sweeney is a better hitter then Josh Fields? You sure you wanna go that direction?

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ May 5, 2009 -> 07:32 AM) I just threw my chair through the office window for effect So? I just jumped from the very same window!

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ May 5, 2009 -> 07:26 AM) What? Im already lookin ahead to 2012(maybe). The next 3 - 5 seasons should be ignored, and a chicken little thread should be created after every loss Who the hell do you think you guys are? The logic police? EVERYBODY PANIC!!!!!!

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 4, 2009 -> 09:56 PM) Rick Akiel had a nasty collision with the outfield wall tonight and had to leave on a stretcher. I have not heard what his condition is yet. That was one of the scariest collisions i've seen.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 4, 2009 -> 09:42 PM) We're putting a TON of faith to think Don Cooper could magically transform Bailey and get him to respond. Bailey's been dominant in AAA his last four starts. He went back to his old delivery. I don't want to start the debate again, but maybe Coop wouldn't have to do much "fixin".

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 4, 2009 -> 09:35 PM) Yeah. Trade Dye for an underperforming AAA pitcher and an unknown. Makes sense to me. I should have clarified my post. I was trying to show that KW was seeking two pieces: a pitcher and and OF in a Dye trade. I was not advocating the Bailey trade.... yet.

The Plan was to trade Dye for Bailey and an OF prospect. So, i believe he would be replaced in the event of trade.

QUOTE (Baines3 @ May 4, 2009 -> 09:21 PM) Cubs will find a way to screw things up by the time the season ends. Not with this offense. They'll get to the playoffs, that's where the fun'll begin.

Hey, at least Swish isn't hitting... Oh, Wait.

QUOTE (earthshiner @ May 4, 2009 -> 08:30 PM) good idea. We should start, oh wait there is nobody else. KROEGER.
