QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 4, 2012 -> 07:10 AM) Actually Belle held up his end of the bargain, plus he did the Sox the solid of opting out of his deal and signing elsewhere just in time for his hip to give out. That 1998 season is one of the best offensive seasons in White Sox history. He still holds the records for most HR and RBI in a season, as well as best SLG in a full season. (Thomas was better in 1994) I couldn't remember that far back but was it rare they were both in the lineup at the same time? I thought one or the other would go on the DL.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 4, 2012 -> 01:37 PM) Peavy has been fantastic this year and has truly been jobbed out of quite a few wins. Between the team scoring very few runs in quite a few of his good games and the bullpen blowing some big leads, he's been completely robbed of a good # of victories. He needed and needs to step up in big games. 1-3 vs. Tigers. Way too much hype over Peavy the competitor. Still I would like to know how many of his games the pen has blown. Shouldn't he be like 14-9 if it weren't for the pen?

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Sep 4, 2012 -> 05:40 PM) Trout is having the best rookie season in history. He's like eating good pizza while boning a supermodel. I expected 270/20/70/300 from Viciedo with awful defense. Next year, I'd expect 280/25/85/325 while continuing to play good defense. It's not impossible that Trout could be a Gordon Beckham next season. I think fans' expectations going back to last year of Viciedo was not very realistic. When was the last time the Sox had a good arm in LF? One team has a Trout be we have a Sale.

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Sep 4, 2012 -> 05:31 PM) 2-0 Cleveland I can see why Tiger fans panic. Falling behind early seems to be the Tiger's MO.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 4, 2012 -> 07:52 AM) f***ing awesome. Keep it up Q.

Kinda weird with stats of 5 IP, 1 ERA. I feel like we are a NL club with those numbers. Like we had to take him out for a PH to increase the lead.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 08:32 PM) You guys see him more than me, but watching the vids from the game did Gordon looked a lil more crouched today? In his last at bat he started to revert back to the other one.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 07:02 PM) Konerko is known to be a streaky player. plus he's getting old. Almost as old as the what's wrong with Konerko threads. Every time he slumps people think he's hurt.

Funny quote from the Tiger's forum. The political forum would look like kindergarten compared to the reaction that a $13 million Delmon Young contract would bring. and there's this one Congratulations to the 2012 Chicago White Sox

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 06:53 PM) I know the Giants aren't the cleanest, most likable team out there. But I'm glad the Dodgers aren't going to buy their way to a division win. 5 back with 27 left. That's a lot this late.

OK now what are we gonna b**** about? Anyone see Caesar lately?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 09:11 PM) Game over. Almost took TOO much time there, but was patient enough to wait for the play to develop instead of rushing the throw to 2B. Back in first place again. This feels familiar. When did we get back in 2nd?

Does Reed have an off speed pitch?

That slider wasn't bad for slipping off the mound.

It seems Veal is the only pen guy that doesn't scare us.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 08:55 PM) Actually that's sad At least he's moving in the right direction. Hitting spots with the FB. I also seen a breaking ball actually break.

Gordon Beckham defeats the Twins.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 08:53 PM) Is there a game Thornton has not given up a run lately? Tonight was the best he's looked in awhile.

I guess Vic doesn't like the ball in the strike zone.

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 08:40 PM) Wonder if those other teams b**** as much as some of the guys on here...youre not gonna have a team full of studs in the pen. Love the Rally Staches, glad Myers joined in. Go talk to Angel fans. The Sox would lead the league in blown saves if it weren't for them.

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 08:22 PM) Way to go Matt. You guys expect far too much outta bullpen guys. Jesse has a sub 3 ERA and Matts 3.50 is respectable as well Baseball is full of bullpen guys with a 3 era.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 08:13 PM) Crain + Thonton = not good Ron Gardenhire disagrees.

Crain usually settles down after giving up the lead.

Might be a gift there.
