And how they pretty much ignore that the team had one hell of a starting pitching staff.

Question: were Canseco and McGwire respecting the game when they played for LaRussa in Oakland?

What I thought was ridiculous is how they took the team almost not winning 20 games in a row and made it into some sort of Greek Tragedy,

Didn't Ozzie say asinine things to take the pressure off the club...what is the point of this nonsense from LaRussa?

Probably, I was only half way watching to be honest after that bullshit scene where Chad Bradford thanks him because no one ever gave him a shot before. Listen jerk, I have been to 3 playoff games in my White Sox fandom career and in one of them, I had to watch your sorry ass pitch. Sorry for the rant...my wife said I should let that go and I should take her advice.

The most shocking part about this is that Silvy actually knows the White Sox exist. I've only ever heard him slobber all over the Cubbies.

To paraphrase Brad Pitt in Moneyball, if they want to walk hit you, just say thank you and take your base. I hope the benches do not clear over this nonsense.

As long as it is going to a good cause....I hear AMC is a good stock to invest in these days.

Can I get a suspension for that, German...or is there a SoxTalk Kangaroo court I have to answer to?

And they listened to...

How about if Tony tosses BP before the game and throws at Yermin...will that appease the Twinkies?

Adam didn't like it at first, but he got a call from Drake after the game and he thought it was cool so...

knock, knock, knock...who is it...it's us Eloy and Robert....Eloy and Robert aint home man.

So should the White Sox formally apologize to the Twins for kicking their butts so badly that they had to use a non pitcher? I don't recall anyone taking at bats off against Mercedes or Mendick. The guy busted his butt in the minors for how many years? Let him hit and if the Twins don't like it tough...don't fall behind 10 runs and make your team susceptible to baseball's unwritten bullcrap.

AH Sox....where do I buy the cap?

Can we just have a gesture like putting up 4 fingers for the intentional walk...just pretend like you threw at him, Yermin can scowl and take his base. Old timey baseball guys are appeased and we can go back to kicking their a$$ new school style.

I heard Manfred is thinking about testing that in the Carolina League to see if it will speed up play.

You see LaRussa saw Lamb hit that weak popup in the 9th and figured we better get him some more reps to knock off that rust....I also welcome Jake to hit a 1st inning home run to put me in my place.

Unacceptable oversight on my part, sorry. That joke didn't age well....f*&%ing LaRussa.

haha, that is exactly who I was thinking as well.

I could not believe how huge Adolfo was when I saw him stroll to the plate in Spring Training.

Agree...interesting that Sheets and Burger are both hitting...we got something going on for awhile on the South Side...with future major league players and/or useful trade pieces.

I would think LaRussa would be ok with a "hold my beer" moment

I read that really quickly and thought it said Al Cowlings....the White Bronco guy?!?

First at bat....pinch hitting for Yermin Mercedes....Jake Lamb.
