Rios just has no power in his swing anymore. Terrible.

Don't agree with that

 

Same here.

The Sox offense went all Minnesota Twins on the Twins this inning. HBP, sac bunt, IBB, fly out, single.

 

Pirhanas.

 

Just for caulfield.

Stunning that Rios, Dunn and Morel do absolutely nothing for our offense. Those are the three guys that need to be out of the lineup if we want to try and win games.

With BJ Upton going nuts the last few weeks, Alex Rios, IMO, is officially the biggest waste of talent in all of baseball.

Man I hate that guy. He has no pop in his bat whatsoever.

 

He had to be on something in Toronto. The ball would just rocket off his bat.

It almost seems like Rios is hurt because he just is generating no power. Id almost wish hed try and hit the ball hard and strike out a few times.

im pretty sure i cant stomach another late inning loss at home to the twins after the liriano no hitter

What are you scared about becoming worse with Ozzie gone?

Well, at least it wasn't a groundout off the end of the bat.

 

But Rios and clutch hits this year...go together like mauve and electric green on the Shaggy Mystery Machine.

Castro has a broken right hand.

 

Officially.

Are we even sure, to this point, that Rios has talent?

Scoring a run with two outs to tie the game seemed like winning the World Series based on the reaction from the crowd / Q.

Man, it's sad.

Is that 2 for 31 for Rios with RISP and 2 outs?

CQ is to angry to quit.

CQ AGAIN!

I'm not so sure anymore. Rumors are that scouts feel the same.

Seriously? Time to see if that Flowers kid is any good at AAA or if he's just another fringe farm hand (a recurring theme for the White Sox farm system).

I think he does. He's simply your classic underachiever.

Wow! Thome doing an Adam Dunn impersonation.

Mr. Flowers is packing his bags now I guess.

If Rios was making a lot less money people would be fine with his talent. Its just he got a contract based on reaching a future potential, he has actually regressed from where he was.

Very nice job by Crain, and huge catch by Quentin.

nice play by crain there

The real tall guys who run well seem to slow down quicker. I think in a couple years, his speed will all be gone.
