QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:06 AM) Leave him alone!!! He was 2-4 yesterday. Which shows why he should never be played in 2 straight games (or any MLB game for that matter).

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:06 AM) Of course Pierz has never taken a walk in his life and most likely never will. That you don't mind so much because he also never strikes out much.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:03 AM) I have no problem with AJ defensively, especially if this 20 HR thing he's got goin' on this year is going to continue for the next three-four years. Plus, he's pretty damn good at blocking balls in the dirt. Gosh, are Konerko and Iguchi the ONLY two guys in this lineup who realize that Chacon walks an awful lot of guys? I suppose with our lineup, really you've got 3 guys in Gooch, Paulie and Pods who know how to take a walk, which is something Crede, Uribe etc. need to learn to do a better job of if they're going to stick around for the long - term.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:00 AM) He has a weak arm, though. But yes, I agree with you that his throw-out % is extremely decieving. CERA is of course the most important stat though, and A.J would be one of the league leaders no doubt.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:58 AM) Oddly I dont see them getting 2 hit and 3 hit all the time like we do. They've got 2 hits so far tonight. They had 4 yesterday.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:54 AM) He is a good pitcher. Is he someone that should shut your offense completely down. One solo homer and that is it. NO He had a 1.50 ERA in his 2 games for the Yanks before this. And how do you think the Yanks fans feel about their offense up against Contreras, the guy they got rid of?

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:43 AM) I should have put "one of the worst" instead of the worst. I honestly had no clue that Crede's OPS was as high as it is now. Just imagine what that OPS would be if he didn't have that bad May.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:40 AM) As you know, I was talking about everyday lineups...and not roster changes that have happened. Kudos to finding a worse one so quickly though. Well Buck's played mostly everyday, Murhpy is at the moment, don't know if Ruben Gotay is much better.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:37 AM) Hopefully Scotty is starting to get himself back together. Just need to some production behind him. Oh and nice slide.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:36 AM) Our 8-9 hitters continue to be the worst in the American League. Would you prefer John Buck and Donnie Murphy instead at the moment?

QUOTE(whitesoxmanager @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:35 AM) and jinx him? Ok go compliment the offense instead then.

Anyone wanna compliment Jose on his stellar pitching thus far?

Well the forkball actually worked in a big situation.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:11 AM) and Timo swings at ball 4. Suprise, Suprise.

Say what you will about Paulie's clutch hitting, the man knows how to work a walk.

It is Shawn Chacon after all.

The #3 spot seems to be the key as always, the 1 and 2 guys lay a good platform, and then you've got Konerko and Dye who usually produce in the 4 and 6 spots. What can be done? Well in my opinion, unless Ken Griffey Jr. comes Southside, we need to put Aaron Rowand back in the #3 spot, and hope his power comes around. Put Everett in the #5 spot, move Uribe up the order a little if you want (to Rowand's 7 spot to try and get him going again).

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 10:14 PM) The Discovery has landed and is safely on the ground!!!! They were showing on an Entertainment Show down here and everyone thought it was a joke.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 07:17 AM) This trade was very lopsided in favor of the A's. The Huddy trade was lopsided in favor of the Braves. Just imagine if they kept Hudson what their rotation would look like right now; Hudson Harden Zito Haren Blanton

We all pretty much knew it anyway, from the Southtown; http://www.dailysouthtown.com/southtown/ds.../pro/091sd4.htm

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 08:43 PM) was Thompson up with the Braves earlier for some reason that name sounds very familiar. Yeah, he used to pitch with Texas IIRC. He's been injured for the majority of the year.

Ozzie - "Pimple on his Daddy's Ass". That should clear it up for ya.

Is 420 the only fan Jon Adkins has on here? (Just showing in a Baj loved community).

Was Bradley lined up on Travis Daniels tonight?

Bad Weather once again postponing the landing for the moment. They may have to land in Calfornia or even New Mexico instead, but that's unlikely.
