Have I mentioned before this team is boring (btw, this usually starts a Sox rally)?

It's really one of the big reasons why I want this team to pick up another bat: this team just isn't very entertaining.

Sadly, even if the Sox acquired someone, Jones would be DFA'd. The organization wants him around to hit #400.

That could take years...

I was about to say, he'll be here until 2012 in that case.

Get Andruw outta here

 

he was 3 for 35 in June

Jones is at least 1 for his last 20, if not worse. Couldn't Ozzie have just waited a few days to play him against Kazmir?

Andruw is probably actually worth his salary as a defensive replacement. Problem is we just don't have enough roster spots with this weak of a lineup to keep him.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 08:39 PM)
Alrighty then.

 

For all you people who don't want Kotsay in our lineup, Andruw is the alternative on most nights.

 

I'd say Viciedo would be.

We don't even use Andruw as a defensive replacement though.

Bring up De Aza.

That's got to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Nobody is going to buy tickets to watch Jones hit some meaningless milestone.

Jones sucks. They need to just realize the mistake of their ways and dump him.

It's a miracle this team has the record it does. This offense blows and has blown all year.

Ideally, you put Omar at 2B, Dayan at 3B, and bench Gordon Caruso. Problem is, you're still stuck with Kotsay as the DH.

Ok, good job Johnny...

 

We're going to score some f***ing runs at some point...

If Danks can't throw 110-120 pitches through 7 innings regularly, we're going to lose a lot of games

 

Ozzie needs to let him go deeper into games, otherwise he's going to continually burn up our bullpen

I like Dayan a lot but if he continues to swing at everything he's destined to make a ton of outs in his career. You gotta be a bit selective or you are gonna get eaten alive in the big leagues.

Frankly, #400 is not a huge milestone.

 

 

#400 is not a huge milestone when not a person on the planet thinks you did it cleanly

Especially when everyone knows you're not likely to reach #500.

Anytime our abortion of an offense wants to earn their keep would be fine by me.

 

 

We're like a Little League teams in terms of power.

They should play so shallow for everybody but Paulie.

Poor Gordon...looks like he may be starting to figure some things out though...

Hopefully he can learn that. Alexei got better his second year compared to first. Dayan had 5 walks before being called up.

 

this team is hard to watch unless they're playing interleague

How in the hell can we not hit this pitcher? Also, I don't think it's possible for Viciedo to hit an inside fastball with authority. Once again, another Sox prospect with a huge hole in his swing.

Seriously why would any team give us a cheap single? Teams should play as shallow as they do when pitchers hit in the NL except for CQ and Paulie.

It is a crime to let a White sox bloop a hit into left or center. I'd play shallow shallow shallow against the punchless Sox.
