  1. So your point is that you're sick of seeing a young, inexperienced player not make a play, after you have continually complained about the Sox playing older players who have no upside and we need to be playing younger players from the system. I get it now: you're pissed off that you got what you wanted, but it this case it didn't work out, so you're sick of it. Okay, I see it now.
  2. 1. My point is that the White Sox were better than Boston over this weekend. So how about, oh, I don't know . . . . . ., actually enjoying that it happened. 2. Shane Smith should have left the game giving up one less run than Crochet. And also, that as Crochet contends for that Cy Young, there might be some of those votes going to a young, former Rule 5 pick, from Chicago.
  3. With all this talk about how great Crochet is and how much the White Sox suck, people seem to be forgetting that if Baldwin (an inexperienced outfielder, especially at Rate Field) catches that very catchable deep fly in RF when there were two outs; if he had caught that, there's probably a 50/50 chance, at best for Boston, that Crochet ends the day taking a 1 to 0 loss, and Boston leaves town being swept.
  4. Do you have a issue with hypocrisy? Because I do. Lynn can't, years after the fact, come on and complain about the management problems and imply that he cared about winning when he was with the Sox; when it is absolutely clear that he didn't care about winning at all. Lynn knew, KNEW that if he lost weight, he would be a better pitcher and help his team win (teams, both the Sox and the Dodgers). But he did nothing to lose that weight and just joked about it when asked by the press. He certainly was thankful for Sox management when they silenced/ shamed Steve Stone because Stone said that Lynn would have better stamina or something like go longer in the game or whatever. I remember that Stone was silenced and (I think) halfway apoligized, even though Stone was 100% corrrect, and he was being kind the way he said it. This coming out of Lynn's mouth, however valid, is total BS and just another example of his weakness of character.
  5. Another 3 and 22 start is looking very possible.
  6. With two outs you leave at the crack of the bat. He would have been safe easily.
  7. You are f-ing kidding me. We can't even run the bases. Just incredible, Incredible.
  8. It will be tough for anyone, ALL YEAR, to have a worse at bat then Robert did just then. Just pathetic.
  9. As so switching out flotsam for jetsam begins... They will save the season. You can be sarcastic, but I think both of those moves are big (potentially huge) improvements. Depending how quickly Drury gets here, that's potentially (likey??) 20 more home runs.
  10. This is really good advice and thanks for the help. So tell me Mr. caulfield12, do you have much experience posting on this site?
  11. Can we PLEASE win this game and not get swept. Can we PLEASE, this year, not make our Central Division opponents appear five or so games better than they are by giving them another 10 free wins that they really don't deserve, if they were playing real teams? If those first two are impossible; can we PLEASE make today's game appear in doubt beyond the 3rd inning (unlike the last two) so I can have some, if even a minimal amount of enjoyment as I try to watch the game today?
  12. So glad we have a new start with Will Venable as the manager and things are going to be different. So let's look at today's game. The Angels score two runs thanks to bad defense. The Sox score early and don't score again the rest of the game. They run themselves out of a potential inning. Bullpen (can't blame them too much really) loses the game. And what happens over and over and over: the Sox have runners in scoring position in the 7th and 9th and then proceed to have four terrible at bats. Terrible situational hitting with the game on the line again and again and again. Yep, things look new and different to me this year with Venable.
  13. I agree with this. Sometimes it seems we really outsmart ourselves with the lefty vs. righty thing.
  14. Is MLB. TV working yet for anyone? I can't get that or radio still?
  15. Not just the results, but doesn't Vargas's swing look so much better? Is it just confidence as opposed to last year when he was just flailing at too many pitches.
