Why the f*** would we run with 2 outs when Lillibridge is batting? Do we really want him leading off next inning?

I mean, COME ON! "Aggression" my ass. There's nothing aggressive about letting your players be automatic outs. I really wish this team would just STOP trying to steal.

Why is it that Sox cannot throw anyone out stealing bases, but yet we cannot steal a base! Not a good mix. :gosoxretro:

In honor of AJ's home run...

 

The game anderson replaced wise he stole two bases. Since he has been caught stealing three times.

 

That was ramirez's first caught stealing in five attempts, which is encouraging considering how bad he was last year.

notice that seattle seems to have an approach to Gavin, right-handers going to right. that's called a game plan, senor walker.

The perfect balance of ying and yang.

It's not like he would've gotten a hit anyway. Might as well get the 3rd out on the bases.

But they have to show off the massive upgrade in team speed.

Why do I have a deep love for Lillibridge? I want him to succeed so bad.

Have the Sox thrown out anyone stealing this year dam!

what a f***ing joke - gavin refuses to keep runners close

You're also 4'3"? :huh

17 for 17 on opposing stolen bases, according to the PR crew all of them are on the pitchers. AJ lurks like a panther ready to pounce on any baserunners if only he had a chance.

When Floyd and Contreras are pitching, its a miracle if there is even a close play on a steal attempt.

Why even have a catcher back there? Just have a cushioned wall. The pitcher can walk over to the plate to retrieve the ball after each pitch.

Corky Miller isn't having much better luck. He had a steal or two against him yesterday with no throw. Its ridiculous the jumps the opposition gets against several of the White Sox pitchers. I understand not letting runners bother you on the mound, but you at least have to look at them once in a while.

heck if Konerko were on a different team he'd probably be 9 for 10 in steals against us.

Sox can only dodge so many bullets! :gosox4:

Don't forget Jenks.

 

Anderson is faster than Beltre, he's out by 10-15 feet on a curveball...and Beltre doesn't even have to slide.
