You get a 1-0 count and then you swing. You'll fit in just fine here, Rios.

They need to stop this “It’s Black and White” ad campaign. It might be the most bland, humorless, buzz kill of a sequence of ads I’ve ever seen produced. There’s literally no personality there.

Sigh.

That was a really cool bit of symmetry between our two posts, Ginger Kid. Linebrink brings us together, only s***ty baseball can tear us apart.

When Ozzie puts Linebrink in during a close game, is he conceding the game?

What a bunch of clowns.

Mark Teahen is simply dreadful at 3b.

What the hell was that Brinkey?

Right now, we're our own worse enemies. We're killing ourselves at the plate.

Wow, Juan that was awesome how you swung at the first pitch and grounded out to the 2b. I never would have seen that coming.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 27, 2010 -> 09:07 PM) and that's kind of the scary thing if they decide to bring up some young guys in the next month or so if this disaster doesn't turn around. I like Ozzie but I don't really get the feeling he's much of a teacher, same with Walker. There is no organizational philosophy to pass on. TEAHEN on the board. The K-rates of most of our "top" prospects seem to suggest this philosophy is an organizational trend. Which is very, very bad.

Alright, Mark!!!! Turning it on!!!

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 27, 2010 -> 09:00 PM) because most are veterans who do their own thing - it's what ozzie and walker like to coach because it's easier. I'm thoroughly impressed with what leyland is doing with 8 rookies on his roster this season. I hate watching my favorite team play a style of baseball that I absolutely despise. Look no further then the Rays who take pitches and work at-bats to get pitches that they can drive. The White Sox, instead, operate under the assumption that EVERY pitch can be driven.

Take a f***ing pitch, Kotsay. Why don't any of these bastards work a count?

Learn from Rios, White Sox. If they're not going to throw you a good pitch, then you don't have to swing at it.

He's so good.

s***, nice play by Pena.

Alright, Bacon!

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ May 27, 2010 -> 08:31 PM) Let's not act like they are blowing us out of the water. One good inning and we're right back in it. I wasn’t referring to the inning; I’m talking about the skill sets of both teams. We don’t matchup up well.

That was actually a really cool piece of analysis by Hawk on the Beckham play. Every once in awhile he makes you realize he’s actually pretty good at his job.

This game is going to get out of hand very soon. We simply don't match up at all with the Rays.

Still, a great play by Beckham.

Alexei simply cannot do anything with a slider. He needs to learn to stop chasing them, because he can't hit them.

A.J. is not interested in working an at-bat.
