I love baiting you morons

Thornton in...game over

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ May 16, 2012 -> 09:57 PM) That was bound to happen. Angels should defer some of Pujols' salary to the White Sox for waking him. Reinsdorf's Chicago American League Ballclub - for whatever ails you

QUOTE (fathom @ May 15, 2012 -> 06:08 PM) I'm going to say I'm pretty happy with the team today. The offense had some great at bats and not quitting at the end might have caused the Tigers to lose their closer. Also I want to give credit to Ventura for letting Morel sink or swim I'm sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tired on Sox fans with their low expectations. This is why the ownership gets away with putting inferior products on the field.

QUOTE (kapzk @ May 15, 2012 -> 02:57 PM) We will take that With this team, you're lucky to get that, Jerry.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 9, 2012 -> 12:01 PM) Supposedly Youk is getting benched when he comes back. I would think the White Sox would have to assume the extra cash which gets Boston a little farther away from luxury tax territory. They might bite. I just don't see the White Sox taking on salary although he would most likely be a huge upgrade for the offense, and the Sox are a little heavy in LH relievers. The only GM crazy enough to trade Youk for Thornton is Kenny Williams. So, that won't be happening....

QUOTE (High Mileage @ May 13, 2012 -> 06:39 PM) And the Angels. And the A's. And the Yankees. And the Red Sox. Royals now 10-5 since ending their 12-game losing streak. Sox will catch the Twins this year - no question about it.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 13, 2012 -> 03:25 PM) Yes, that's it. If we had better attendance and fewer boos, Matt Thornton would pitch better at home. It's all because of the lack of fan support at home that's causing us to be 5-10 at home or whatever our record is. I sure hope your tongue is firmly planted in your cheek.... Otherwise no, the horrid team Reinsdorf and his management put on the field is the reason why they're 5-10 at home.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ May 7, 2012 -> 10:14 PM) lost 11 of last 13? Wow were playing some ugly baseball after that decent start. Don't worry, we'll catch up to the Twins in no time flat

QUOTE (Jake @ May 7, 2012 -> 10:07 PM) Our young hitters cannot hit offspeed pitches, with the exception of Dayan who cannot hit fastballs. Ugh They haven't fielded a team that could hit offspeed pitching since 1967

This team, it's owner and management is affront to anyone who is truly a Chicago WhiteSox fan.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2012 -> 07:42 PM) Yep, and said he's 100% behind the decision To have him disagree with management would be real news..but of course if goes Harry on them, he's out the door.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ May 4, 2012 -> 04:50 PM) Why are you people insane? Did I seriously read someone call for KW to "leave" because Sale has a sore elbow?! Seriously? Would Sale be better on the DL? I sometimes wonder about the lack of logic around here. We are requesting his departure because his hasn't done crap in 7 years...and now this????

QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2012 -> 04:35 PM) Yep, it's true. Sale has tender elbow, and Sox don't want to jeopardize his future I guess. Kenny Williams, please leave I'd help him pack....yes indeed

QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2012 -> 09:00 PM) I really worry that Ventura has no idea of how to use his personnel. I loved Robin as a player but there was nothing in his make-up that suggested he'd be a good manager. AJ I believe would be an outstanding manager.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 2, 2012 -> 10:00 PM) Pathetic performance after the game was tied at 3. Clutch hit by Lexi, then miserable baseball. Love losing games at home. Love that .500 mark. And .500 at best is all that's Reinsdorf's offering with this sad sack

New ownership is your only hope people. What a pathetic minor league baseball club.

Illusions and one-hit wonders...that's Reinsdorf's 30 year reign

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:40 PM) Santiago to the minors and we keep watching Beckham, Morel and Viciedo fail? Okay. But Santiago should be tried as a starter, anyway. That will be the FLIGHT FROM HELL coming back home, though. And the Red Sox will be coming in with a 3 game streak...we win four in a row, twice now, give it right back. Once again, the perfect game or no hitter ends up having a bounceback effect on the team. More than half the current roster needs to be in the minors.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:39 PM) He's pitched 6 1/3 innings giving up 11 hits and 4 homers. Robin would lose respect if he kept throwing him out there blowing leads. Most of the time he's been brought in with a 2 or 3 run lead so he could still give up a run or 2 and be OK, but its time to move him out of that role especially with 3 or 4 other guys pitching lights out. If he had a track record as a closer, I'd agree with you, but he has no track record. He's in over his head right now. Maybe he'll get another opportunity another time. Another time...perhaps the next millenium

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:34 PM) Screwball not screwing. Or is it? Hmm, wordplay Williams is screwing us with his screwball closer

QUOTE (Jake @ Apr 25, 2012 -> 06:33 PM) I will be SHOCKED if Santiago isn't the next guy to close a saveable game. Yet another indictment of the talent evaluating abilities of the current GM. I didn't think much of Santos either.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Apr 24, 2012 -> 11:24 PM) Is this what you call brilliant 8th inning relief ? My point is bringing him in with the game on the line is historically a bad decision - smart butt.

MT reminds me of Latroy Hawkins. Brilliant 8th inning relief....horrid closer
