Francouer woulda been a way better addition than Dunn for 1/15th the cost.

Francois hits right handed

If we lose tonight at home against KC on the 4th, heads should finally roll.

 

They won't. White sox baseball is always about one simple fact that tomorrow is always there. They don't have any sense of urgency. Ozzie has stated that Pierre could go 0-100 and he would play everyday. So that should tell you everything.

Hosmer was out

I do't give a hoot about 2008 or last year, what have you done for me lately? That's what counts, yes rios has sucked but Lexi hadn't been far behind

 

25 MLB GM's would claim Alexei Ramirez were he to be placed on waivers.

 

0 would claim Alex Rios.

Did he really say that?

True, no urgency at all, but we can't beat the Central. If that trend continues tonight, heads should roll.

I think it's just a SoxTalk 'urban legend' that sounds so plausible it has become fact.

Yup and also that Pierre is the team leader.

Who cares? Really you guys try to defend some players and trash others, again rios is sucking big time I have no problem saying it, but I don't pick and choose with stupid past stats

arite heart of the lineup coming up

For some reason, there are still those who don't hate Rios.

I can't figure that out.

Injuns threatening to tie it up.

‘‘Maybe he’ll be 0-for-100 in the next 20 games,’’ Guillen said. ‘‘I don’t care. He’s playing.’’

Francouer's a stubborn douche who will never be a great player until he listens to the criticism people hand out to him. He's not really good at anything, but has the talent to be a very very good hitter.

 

I think when he looks back on his career 15-20 years from now, he'll regret that he didn't listen to the people who told him to take more pitches and be more patient.

 

Everything you say about Dunn is pretty much hindsight. Because nobody really complained about signing him. And the people that did complain never saw this coming either.

3-2 CLE.

 

Austin Kearns 2 run homer with 2 outs off AJ Burnett.

If we don't hit Francis this inning, it's another offensive FAIL against a lousy starter.

 

Good start by Paulie.

Rios is hitting .220. Ramirez is hitting .275. One's worth trashing, the other's acceptable.

I would not bunt here, Ozzie. See if your hitters can actually hit Francis Bavier.

That was just beautiful by Konerko. I think I'd rather Quentin just swing away normally instead of hitting it to right here.

And Alexei actually hit that ball hard, it was just right at someone.

 

It wasn't a K or lazy infield fly pop-up.

I'm fine with that, I've trashed him myself, but you can't go trashing a player and defend the other with stats of the past

we need the all star to move him over

Quentin can't bunt.

Random question: what happened to Tyler Flowers? I saw a list of our top prospects the other day and he wasn't even on it. Has he been written off?

 

Also, if Pierre got 5 ABs every game for 20 games, I don't care if he doesn't get a hit. That many ABs means someone is getting hits, and we're probably scoring more than we are now. I'll take it! :lolhitting
