On the bright side, Alexei coaxed his first walk tonight. What is the over/under date for Pierre's first extra base hit in White Sox doubleknits?

DFA Williams and call up Threets

I think Threets has been injured. Just let Santos pitch when Williams has been pitching. No one is touching him. Who cares about R/L

oh my f***ing god. He doesn't have a single XBH? Worst pickup ever.

The only time he's going to hit the wall this season is when he literally runs into it. He won't have a hit that reaches the fence.

you're right he's on the 7 day DL. Call up Whisler. BAA is .196

It's sad that Wes Whisler looks like a realistic option at the major league level.

Ozzie. And unfortunately, he's the only one whose opinion matters.

Yeah, he's nothing but meat.

What's so bad about it?

 

Just talking about how as long as he's there, no one will be the man, etc. He keeps making this season and organization about him, and he's going to get fired.

I still think the most depressing thing about this season has been how awful Beckham has been.. I really hope he turns it around, because I don't want to be a fan of the franchise that ruined Bacon..

damn Ryan Braun 10IP, 0ER in AAA

Imma have to agree with this. JFP is going to be on tonight. I'm sensing 8 innings / 3 hit shutout or something of that order.

 

 

Feel free to kick me in the nuts whenever you feel like it.

He'll be fine. He struggled last season too. Many wanted him sent back to the minors. He's learning a new position, that can't help him and he probably is pressing like a bunch of other guys on the roster. There's no more sure thing on the White Sox roster than Gordon Beckham being the best player on the team for years.

I think he was just saying that it's a team effort, between all of the players and coaches.

I'll take Matt Thornton being an above average reliever as being more of a sure thing.

Who cares? Oz is going to get fired like all managers and coaches do. Earl Weaver, Whitey Herzog, Joe Torre, Bobby Cox couldn't do anything with this horses*** roster.

Personally I think it would help Beckham if he wasn't constantly more/less leading off, he doesn't need that pressure right now at this stage of his career. If Pierre was getting on base more, I think Beckham would be more productive, but with Pierre being an automatic out, Beckham is more/less taking on the load of a leadoff hitter in almost every AB he gets

 

I could be wrong, but that's my theory, move him down in a lineup a bit. I wouldn't mind seeing Rios leadoff, I think he's shown he can be decent at it, put Pierre at 9 or on the bench where he belongs

Teahen should be leading off for this team. If Rios leads off, he'll never have anyone on base to drive in.

There is no way this team hits Feliz.

I've heard that so much.. but he REALLY looks bad right now. I know, its his second season, 20 games in.. I'll give him time. I have refrained from ragging on him a lot so far this year just because I saw his potential last year, and I know he's got a really pretty swing. Man, those months last year where he was hitting .300+ and just smacking doubles left and right, I was ecstatic. I made sure I saw every at bat of his that I could, because he fascinated me so much. It was almost like watching Griffey Jr. or Frank as a kid. Mesmerizing.

At least those managers had the balls to hold players accountable, such as Cox pulling Andruw Jones for not hustling.

Comcast predicting a single for Teahen.
