  1. He works too slow and the guys fall asleep in the field? Goes deep in counts with batters.
  2. Very thankful that someone had faith in me! Always a good feeling and I will do everything I can to make the white sox and their fans proud Per his twitter
  3. I remember reading/seeing this town hall a few weeks ago. The timing is unreal. “I just came from a meeting today in the situation room, in which I’ve got people who we know have been on ISIL websites, living here in the United States, U.S. citizens,” Obama said at the town hall, using another name for the Islamic State group. “And we’re allowed to put them on the no-fly list when it comes to airlines, but because of the National Rifle Association, I cannot prohibit those people from buying a gun.” “This is somebody who is a known ISIL sympathizer, and if he wants to walk into a gun store or a gun show right now and buy as many weapons and ammunition as he can, nothing’s prohibiting him from doing that even though the FBI knows who he is,” the president said. The scenario Obama described as a possibility has now come true. Omar Mateen, 29, bought a semi-automatic rifle and a handgun less than a week before he killed around 50 people at a gay nightclub in Florida. Mateen had been investigated by the FBI twice — once in 2013 and again in 2014 — but was still legally allowed to obtain the weapons.
  4. what a horribly designed lineup. 1. Eaton 2. Abreu 3. Cabrera 4. Frazier 5. Shuck 6. Lawrie 7. Avila 8. Garcia 9. Anderson it should be... 1. Eaton 2. Cabrera 3. Abreu 4. Frazier 5. Garcia 6. Lawrie 7. Shuck 8. Anderson 9. Avila
  5. QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 6, 2016 -> 03:32 AM) Yet you wouldn't have said that a few weeks ago, no? If you would've told me on April 4th that on June 5th the Sox would be 1 game over .500 and 2.5 games out of first I would've said sign me up. If you would've told me they were in 1st and 10 games over .500 in May I would've said pass the pipe. As much as I want the FO to do something I think it would just be red meat to angry fans at this point. I know I'm pissed off and want something to change. But honestly, the only thing we all want to see changed is that they start winning more. If they fire Robin and hand the keys to Renteria or someone else and start winning, then I'll admit I was wrong and be happy....but I really don't think changing managers is going to change this team. They should've done it at the end of last season, if at all. You're right. But as a manager, it's easy to manage when times are good and everything's clicking. It's when times are bad, your true talents/skills shine. (Or don't in this case)
  6. The players aren't performing for this manager. He isn't bringing out the best in them. Like any other profession, if the employees aren't focused and are slacking off, that's a management problem. Robin actually reminds me of my college coach. He took the approach that we were "adults" and could self-manage and be self-disciplined. In the end we slacked off, took the easy road and greatly under performed.
  7. QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 05:02 PM) I've been seeing a lot of people posting negative stuff about Avi lately . Are you all just echo machines reposting what you see others posting ? Avi is, at least right now, one of the Sox lesser problems . If you look at who among the Sox is best with runners in scoring position you would discover Avi is the best on the Sox with a .988 OPS. Abreu has the most AB s on the team in that kind of situation and his OPS is a paltry .535 . The Sox are in no position offensively to get rid of their most productive hitter with runners in scoring position. If anything Avi should be getting more time in the middle of the order. Yeah I don't get the avi hate either. Hasn't been great but certainly better than the alternatives. 2/5 in this series.
  8. Avi 1/4 yesterday with an rbi= bench Rollins 0/3 with 2 strikeouts= starts
  9. Robin throwing out the power lineup with shuck hitting 5th, Coates and Rollins dh'ing? 😠
  10. QUOTE (SCCWS @ May 28, 2016 -> 02:29 PM) Offer Albers and Rollins to SD for Alexei. Just took a look at alexei's offensive stats for 2016. Wow... Not good.
  11. QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 19, 2016 -> 02:52 AM) Not pitching nor caring about pitching Alright then. I'm off to the basement. I need to start stretching the pitching arm out. 🤔
  12. so the 25 man roster is at 24. Will they announce someone before tonight's game? I know replacing Johnson isnt totally necessary yet, but an extra bullpen arm for 3-5 days???
  13. QUOTE (JoshPR @ Apr 8, 2016 -> 11:44 PM) Avi pressing. Lawrie getting under everything except when he strikes out.
  14. Was it 3 years or so ago when they were serving digornos at the park? That was insane. Best pizza city in the world and they serve that s***? With so many awesome local pizza franchises in Chicago, I never understood why they didn't get some big name in there. Beggars is cool to offer. Lou malnatis Gino's Giordanos Connies Nancy's Taylor St. Rosatis Aurilios Etc
  15. QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Mar 24, 2016 -> 12:55 PM) That's a pretty bad abuse of statistics there. They are averaging two polls, one of which is from 2/18-21. The 3/20-22 poll should be weighted more, possibly up near 100%. you're 100% right, but thats not what rcp is doing. they just post all of the polls and because wisconsin had such little polling, they equally weight. they definitely arent trying to predict. a poll like this, is probably more accurate due to the immense amount of polling. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/ot...roval-1044.html
  16. Here's your Wisconsin poll update http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/20...imary-3763.html
  17. QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 04:24 AM) Off topic but what did she say? She got pretty vocal during the Ferguson stuff.
  18. QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 04:16 AM) Gordon Beckham's wife is 1) Not a celebrity 2) Not affiliated with the Chicago White Sox Yes and no. Was involved in a lot of white sox charity events. Regardless, it's just a risk not worth taking.
