31-103 really is a mind boggling record. Wow.

Don't stop now boys!

Another double-digit losing streak coming right up!

A .231 winning percentage.

On pace for a 37-125 record.

Simply amazing.

Dude, I’m so amped after that catch. I’m not gonna be able to sleep for a while.

Has there ever been a better catch in LF at GRF? I'm not counting Wise, that was left center. I've never seen someone go that high over the LF bullpen at home. Am I missing one?

It’s right there with Wise for the best catch I’ve watched live. I’ll give Wise the edge on that one though.

A couple days ago I wrote that my dream was for them to finish 1-29 for 130 losses.  There’s 2 of the 29.  Keep the dream alive.

Wise is the better catch because of the scenario.  Take the situational context out and this catch is absolutely more impressive.

LOL! just LOL!

And the tenth pick in the draft. Sickening. 

What's with our bats against Texas? Are their pitchers good?

I feel sorry for Vaughn again 0-for-9. My gawd. He should have called in sick.

Folks I bet there were not 500 people in the park for Game One. Nobody ever counts the actual amount of people. Check the highlights. Nobody was in there. Did any of u go? Was there even 1000 fans? I seriously doubt it. Think about it. Wednesday. School in session. Horrible team. Only a few retirees would go if they saved up money for their retirements.

Can you imagine the clubhouse after game two after that catch? It's like WTF do we gotta do. That ball was CRUSHED.

Peralta is a AAAA player.  Anyone with a brain knows that.  The White Sox FO on the other hand…

They just have no one better.

I was thinking about this and wondered if Bo Jackson was a possibility so I did a quick search....now I know this is not LF and not a great catch, but holy crap Bo had a great arm!!!

 

Great pick and tag by Robin on the other end as well.

Ivan Calderon climbing the scoreboard in old Tiger Stadium is my all time favorite.  I can't think of one better at that wall in this park though.

In left field I doubt there is a better one, but I feel like Lofton had multiple in center 

Sosa is in the lineup today.  Unfuckingbelievable.

It's almost as if Pedro wasn't the problem.  I wonder who else could be influential on making line ups?

Wasn’t there a rumor that Getz was telling Grifol who to put in the lineup but he wasn’t listening?  I assume Getz would try to do the same with Sizemore, but I would be surprised if Sizemore wouldn’t follow the plan since he is so green.

When you look at the fact that not everyone got fired, it is probably pretty easy to assume that the ones who didn't passed the loyalty clause.  If something hasn't changed about who is playing, it is safe to assume today, that is who upper management wants played.
