Let's do this thing. I'm setting aside the evening for my Sox. I'll go down with the ship if I have to, but we haven't taken on too much water yet.

I dread this series, but we can't lose to this team forever.

 

So let's kick some ass, eh?

The way the White Sox are struggling to score runs, and given their inability to beat the Twins, I see no reason to expect anything better than a split at best, and probably the Twins taking 3 of 4.

At least we have Humber to look forward to tonight.

I dunno about you guys but I wouldn't be opposed to put Beckham at the 2 slot, just to try out atleast something to give a spark in the lineup. Beckham has turned it around somewhat especially his K rate is down, so why not test him out back at the 2nd spot again.

F the TWINS!

F the TWINS!

F the TWINS!

The White Sox seem to think that if something works one day it should stay that way for weeks on end regardless.

 

Morel is not a #2 hitter, Dunn is not a #3 hitter and Pierrre right now is about as close to a lead off hitter that they have. I would give Lillibridge some props there but Tuesday night wasa travesty for him and Dunn as usual.

Win or lose, F*** the Twins!

Mauer at 1B, should be interesting. But ya f*** the Twins.

And once again it's time for all of Chicago media to stoke the fires of infatuation for the Twins franchise, disregarding of course that they have been an awful baseball team this season...

If I were the Twins, I'd be excited right now. What more could you ask for as a confidence-builder? :angry:

Just chiming in to make sure everyone knows that it is 7:10 CST not 7:10 EST as the sub-title of the thread indicates. ;)

I want a flipping SWEEP to make up for that poop against KC.

Winning from the Twinkies is very delicious

I am boycotting Twinkees in protest of their obviously racist and exploitative nickname. I hope everyone will join me.

My bad. You'd be surprised how often i still confuse myself when the game starts

Can the Sox PLEASE blow these motherf***ers out of the water tonight? I mean COME ON! You can't continue to let them come and beat your ass on your own field. How about sending them back to Minneapolis with their tails between their legs? The Sox need at least 3 out of 4. f*** it... they need to SWEEP these assholes.

Great post again.

I wish they'd shuffle it up just per chance we get lightning in a bottle.

 

How bout a lineup of

Lexi ss

Beckham 2b (I seriously considered AJP here)

Paulie 1b

Quentin rf

AJ/Castro c (start Castro versus lefties 50 percent of the time)

Rios (somebody try to fire him up before games) cf

Pierre lf (til Dayan gets here, why not?)

Dunn (dh)

Morel (3b)

 

What's wrong with this lineup? I like it.

This lineup can't be any worse than what we have had. The radical nature of it might actually change some mentalities at the plate.

Going with Juan first, Morel second and Dunn third this series is buzzkill, baby.

Why Omar at No. 2? That should be Lexi or Beckham. We're going nowhere fast if a 44 year old guy is our No. 2 hitter.

That should be Lexi or Beckham, even though both are struggling.

 

Adam Dunn simply has to wake up.
