QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 02:42 PM) Jh. Danks. Yea sure the deal looks bad cuz of being hurt. Just the whole timing wasn't good.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 02:33 PM) Hudson is not as good defensively as Beckham, and he hit about .160 last time the Sox let him play. Hudson was prolly the best 2nd basemen defensively this the past decade (2000-2010), no one would say that of Beckham, even tho he is good but not Hudson good at 2nd.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 02:32 PM) Fister is very good. Check out his record with DET after he joined them last year. They only lost, as a team, 1 or 2 of his starts. Scherzer is leading the AL in K/9. He was consistently hitting 97-98 in the 7th inning against the Angels this past week. Porcello is 3-0 against the Sox with an ERA of nearly 1. He's 23, so he's done all that before the age Verlander started pitching for DET after Old Dominion. Turner is one of their best pitching prospects and Drew Smyly was very very underrated for them, their version of Jose Quintana. Fister was a fluke for them last year. He is not as good as those numbers indicate during that time after he was acquired. If anything he is high 3 to low 4 era pitcher at best

What difference will there be between Beckham and Hudson at 2nd. None, Hudson is as good if not better defensively at 2nd than Beckham. And both suck at offense, while Hudson has shown he has done better b4, but prolly cuz of age he sucks now.

QUOTE (Caesar @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 02:27 PM) If their pitching sucks, what does that say for our hitters? That they are streaky as hell, like for crying out loud Porcello has prolly the highest WHIP in the big league, and they could only muster one run off him. I know this team is capable of more.

QUOTE (C_LEE45 @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 02:24 PM) BS they have verlander and thats it ,we just cant score now,detriot is overated !!!!!! This. Their pitching staff sucks beside JV and defense is bad as well. There's a reason why the season is 162 games.

QUOTE (Caesar @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 02:22 PM) Detroit is just better than us. They played way below their expectations and now they are playing like everyone expected. As for us, maybe we played abouve our heads and we are seeing the true 2012 Sox. No We haven't played above our heads, do u forget that the White Sox still managed a 79-83 record last yr considering the yrs Dunn, PV and Rios had.

The offense doesn't suck, it's just that they are really streaky which is extremely frustrating cuz we all know how capable they are in putting up runs. What can you do is, just wait till they get their s*** back together.

QUOTE (Caesar @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 02:10 PM) If your goal is to make the playoffs, then they don't need to compete with Detroit. Then you will compete with 7 other teams.

Its gonna be tough, the core of the White Sox offense is over 30 (#2-6 hitters), the window is only so big to compete.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 02:03 PM) The good news is the Tigers pitcher has an ERA like Humber's. The bad news is that it was in a small sample size, and the guy that is pitching is top 25 prospect in baseball.

Well Tigers threw ridiculous money at Fielder which no teams would really want to do, but signing Gonzalez to what he signed is reasonable.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 01:56 PM) Consolation prize; this will be the first time the SOX get swept this year. That has to amount for something, right? Is it surprising that it comes in the most important series of season atm.

It still sad to think that we could have had Fielder or Adrian Gonzalez if we had packaged away Beckham/Daniel Hudson.

Cabrera with his 300th Hr, congrats.

So the Tigers final 13 games will come against Minn/KC

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jul 22, 2012 -> 01:36 PM) Because look at who's pitching for them. This isn't Verlander or even Porcello. If they couldn't hit against Porcello, what makes you think they will hit against Turner.

as expected 1-2-3 inning

Game is over certainly, offense scored their one run, time to pack their bags for the Minny series.

Danks needs to come back fast.

How the f*** does Berry hit a Hr, that too opp. field.

Humber didn't even check over on Jackson on that SB, how pathetic.

all of the 11 runs Tigers have scored in this series have come with 2 outs

Bloop single RBI for Rios

Hopefully just one more inning of Verlander, but considering how they stretch Verlander wouldn't surprise me if he went 8
