This is so freaking embarrassing. It's really a good thing we didn't keep Eduardo Perez on the roster.

I have a feeling our winning ways lately have masked all these issues in the front office, and no chances are even being considered. It's fascinating though to see De La Rosa keep everything down, and Vazquez throwing everything up.

 

What's masking the issue is optimism. "Oh, Crede's turned the corner last year." "Paulie won't party like it's 2003." "Dye isn't living in quicksand." People need to face reality. Holy s***, man, this offense is terrible and there are no more excuses. No more weather. No "tired," definitely.

Good news for our pathetic offense. Toby Hall just went deep.

 

 

In a few weeks, the top of the order that gives us the best chance to win could be

 

Erstad/Ozuna

Uribe

Hall

 

 

How sad.

This is a semi-serious question. Do we ever get hits in the first 9 innings?

 

Fixed

This is a semi-serious question. Do we ever get hits in the first 3 innings?

 

No.

 

I'm semi-serious, too.

 

I'm not optimistic that Hall's going to come up and change everything or even anything. Not at all.

... But Uribe will carry this team.

As good as Ozuna was the first half last year, he now has managed a .505 OPS.

 

That's pretty hard to do, unless you're Cintron, Molina or Anderson.

What the f*** goes on in the White Sox front office?

This might be the worst fastball I've ever seen Vazquez have.

b****ing about the rising cost of salaries.

Yeah, Ozuna looks awful. He was so good at the start of last year, but he's been horrible since.

They are looking at the backs of all the players baseball cards waiting for them to come out of it on their own.

 

Any other team, and Greg Walker is looking for another job.

My theory is that they shoot pool, drink beer, and watch porn. It is a lot like a college dorm except nobody EVER learns.

Huge batter in this game here....hopefully Chuck Garfein was wrong in the pregame about Gload beating us once this year with his bat.

Lefties hit De La Rosa better than righties, yet our brilliant lineup is righty dominant. Maybe looking at splits might be something the whitesox front office might want to take a look at. Sometimes stats dont lie.

I hate Javier's starts where he battles and battles and has to battle

Ozzie only uses the stats printed on the back of baseball cards. Anything else is too much to ask.

Who were we going to have play? Erstad is worse than NL pitchers against LHP. AJP is the only guy who really should be in there, but we'd rather let Molina embarrass himself at the plate more.

I would like to take this opportunity to call Molina out. With all of the slamming he has taken on message board, he shoul deither get a hit today or physically kick the pitcher's ass to get him out of the game. I see no other options.

I wonder if DJ and Hawk ever get sick of making excuses for our hitters? Gotta learn to foul those pitches off Sweeney.

 

Wait, no hits thru the first 3 innings? This is shocking how consistent it is.

Vazquez has no command of anything today. This game is teetering on the brink of bad.

It's like before the 4th inning of yesterday. Does it matter though....one run might be enough to beat us. I can't stand watching this f***ing offense. Think of it this way....you have two guys in Terrero and Molina who have no business being in the majors, a rookie in Sweeney who doesn't look comfortable vs LHP, two slumping power hitters in Konerko and Dye, two players in Crede/Iguchi who all they can do it hit pop ups to the right side, and a guy in Ozuna who has an OPS around .500 over the last 100 games or so. We need Uribe to hit two solo homers I guess.

Good to see the Royals sre pitching a no-hitter against the mighty White Sox bats.

Every game since Thome went down falls into that category...

 

It would be hilarious if they had a post-game show for a De La Rosa no hitter against this line-up.

If the Sox are shut down today, Walker needs to be canned after this game. I don't know if firing him will do any good, but these guys need a f***ing wake-up call, and realize that slumping for the first 20% of the season cost somebody their job.

Sweeney just was frozen on that curve. It happens. That's two called strikes in a row against Ryan.

 

His splits were appreciably better against lefties than righties at Charlotte.

We're fine folks...just ride it out. Javy has navigated through the first 4...now we will blowup.

Way to work the count Pablo
