On the day of the deadline, while Kenny works like a madman.

 

 

Kenny at work, most likely about to make a splash.

 

THIS GAME'S SONG: "NIGHTRAIN" BY GUNS N' ROSES

 

 

Why? Because like fortified wine we got Liriano cheap, he can be potent, can make you unruly, and if he pitches like he can, we'll all be getting drunk come October.

 

So, without further ado...

 

IN THIS CORNER:

 

 

FRANCISCO "NIGHTRAIN" LIRIANO, making his White Sox debut.

 

3-10, 5.31 ERA with the Twins.

 

0.00 ERA with the White Sox, who are the only team to beat him up lately. Don't have to worry about that anymore.

 

VS.

 

 

THIS b****

 

4-6, 7.99 ERA.

 

Fun fact: I was at the game against him last week, he got destroyed. It was awesome.

 

SOX ON A LOSING SKID.

 

SHALL THEY REGAIN FORM?

 

AND DEFEAT THEIR RIVALS FROM THE NORTH?

 

THEN LAUGH AT THEIR SUFFERING THIS YEAR?

 

YES.

 

BECAUSE f*** ALL THE HATERS.

 

THIS.

 

IS.

 

WHITE SOX.

 

BASEBALL.

 

 

AND NOW. FOR YOUR CHICAGO WHITE SOX.

 

 

LINEUPS TO BE ANNOUNCED, BUT MOST LIKELY:

 

ALEJANDRO DE AZA - CF

 

 

KEVIN YOUKILIS - 3B

 

 

ADAM "DONKEY" DUNN - DH

 

 

PAUL - "KONG*" KONERKO - 1B

*Also known as: The Captain, Paulie, The Professor, NEVER FORGET, PK. Kong used here because Donkey Kong is powerful.

 

 

ALEX RIOS - RF

 

 

A.J. PIERZYNSKI - C

 

 

DAYAN "THE CUBAN TANK" VICIEDO - LF

 

 

 

 

ALEXEI "THE CUBAN MISSLE" RAMIREZ - SS

 

 

GORDON "BACON SLAYER" BECKHAM - 2B

F the Twins. That game pissed me off watching them celebrate when we handed them the W on a platter.

 

Mercy is for the weak!

 

f*** THE TWINS!!

Put the Twins in a BODY BAG!!!

It is impossible to start game threads while gainfully employed.

 

Also - LIRIANO.

Great lead post.

I have never liked the Twins and when they beat us I like them even less if that's possible

Well.....quit your job then.........Priorities.....Duh !

I can't talk smack against the Twins today - made the mistake of doing it after the top of the 1st yesterday. Hope Liriano gets over his sadness and pitches his ass off.

Just awesome.

 

Oh ya, f*** the Twins.

Quin, I love your game threads.

 

Let's go Frankie...dominate your former mates like the little b****es they are.

f*** the Twins!!!

 

They're perpetual losers!

I don't see Liriano grinding through a start like Floyd and Sale have recently. He's either gonna dominate or get shelled.

 

Hopefully the offense can destroy Blackburn

Love facing Nick Blackburn and his 7.99 era.

There's a rumor of Span going to the Reds. That would have been great if it were done last weekend.

Love facing Nick Blackburn and his 7.99 era.

 

Oh No ! Now we'll be lucky to score 1 tonight

 

Kind of funny the two Sox players in that shot are former Twins players.

Who is AJ threatening to kill there?

Do you guys/gals sense that because of our injuries and dead arm of Sale we are destined to play in the one game Wild Card playoff? I think that is the Sox destiny this season.

De Aza 8, Youk 5, Dunn DH, Konerko 3, Rios 9, AJ 2, Viciedo 7, Ramirez 6, Beckham 4. #WhiteSox lineup vs. #MNTwins

I'd take it and I'll take any of the Sox's starters against whoever the Angels/Rangers have to put out there. It'll at least be a good fight.

Good, I don't have to edit the original post.

This is a big game. If we can't beat Blackburn, then blah.

Hopefully the Defense shows up today. It always seems that this team never really clicks on all cylinders at particular stretch, where its always one of the pitching, batting and fielding that is a let down.
