Stone hands at first can't catch a throw.

Dunn needs to take some time off.

And he's one of the better prospects the Sox have developed the past 10 years. So if you really want to see the White Sox rebuild and think the offense can't be worse, think 6 or 7 Brent Morels around bad contracts like Dunn and Rios.

That is why the whole regime top to bottom has to go.

I don't disagree with this statement.

Stone said earlier that throwing lefties at the Twins takes away Mauer's power. I don't think he has much power anyway.

Of course, kid gets in trouble and Mauer is up. You think that's just part of the gameplan?

He clearly has the build for it, but I wonder if the legs aren't under him enough. He earned that MVP season with the power.

This version of Mauer isn't so scary right now.

NIZE PITCH ZACH!

Stewart showed some moxy I like it.

Wow amazing.. this kid is great!

94 MPH hard down and in on Mauer.

Well not bad so far. I am sure a cutter is in his future.

Man, for 94 mph, that pitch broke hard

I was saying the same thing. That pitch was absolutely filthy, whatever it was.

I know that's the org's M.O., but I'm not sure that'll happen with him. The 2 seamer is his big weapon, a cutter sort of takes away from that with some people

I like that he works fast and hits the lower part of the zone. Definitely looks like he has the makings of being a middle of the rotation starter, which is nice.

Which is why he would be the perfect replacement for Gavin Floyd. I hope our rotation going forward looks like Buerhle, Peavy, Danks, Stewart, Sale, Humber. Maybe they go with the 6 man next year as well. Buerhle and Danks are question marks ofcourse. But assuming they stay atleast somebody has to go, which is why I think they are gonna keep burying Sale in the bullpen, which is waste.

Dunn is a lawn ornament. That is right at him.

Why would you play the IF back here with runners only on 2 and 3?

I pretty much think everything said in this post is a bad idea.

Dunn is about to cost this kid a win with his stone hands.

I'd rather see Omar at first. Vizquel or Little.

Really trying hard to get Young to swing at something low and on the outside corner.
