Did you read that funny blurb about Buehrle drinking beer during game 4 of WS?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 01:25 PM) Same lineup as usual tonight I don't know which pisses me off more, the losses or management's decision to stay with this group of players. I mean good lord, they pulled Micah quick enough. And yet that's essentially been it. Why is Bonafacio even on this team?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 01:25 PM) And one more while head of scouting. And none while averaging .218

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Jul 8, 2015 -> 08:57 AM) Let's go crazy and look at the last 55 years: just FIVE playoff appearances for this franchise since 1960! Noodle on that for a few moments! And then we wonder how a team that has been around as long as the Chicago White Sox has been unable to build a robust fan base. For reference, in that time... CLE = 7 appearances KC = 8 DET = 9 MIN = 11

And then we wonder how a team that has been around as long as the Chicago White Sox has been unable to build a robust fan base. In Kenny's 15 years, he's responsible for 2 of those appearances.

Hard to believe an aging LH power hitter from the Nats didn't work out as a FA for the Sox. That never happens.

Thanks, I enjoyed this!

QUOTE (dpd9189 @ Jul 7, 2015 -> 07:57 PM) I think we'll see some moves from the Sox by July 31st. You'd have to think Samardzija will be dealt, maybe Alexi too. Not the moves that should be made, like dumping Kenny and his sidekick Ricky

Scot Gregor ‏@scotgregor 4m4 minutes ago #WhiteSox lose to Jays, 2-1, have scored 4 runs or less in 24 straight home games. #notgood Now THAT'S how to make the fans want to come out, ricky.

You just have to tip your cap. Felix D is one of the best.

HOLD ON -- "THREE YEAR PLAN"?? I thought I was a pretty astute follower of Sox news but unless my memory fails me, this week is the first time I remember reading ANYTHING about a so-called "three year plan." I do remember letting Mark Buehrle walk after 2011 and saying that this was the first step in rebuilding. So if my math is right, that was three seasons ago...which means we're in the 4th season of a rebuild...right? I get so confused, Kenny. Please tell me, what plan are we on now and what stage of the plan are we in?

f*** these umps

Scott Merkin ‏@scottmerkin 38s39 seconds ago Beuhrle gets a standing ovation as he takes the mound

that last FB was at 99. Sale needs to take a couple of deep breaths!

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 11:05 AM) You should probably not say Cy Young season until he actually wins it which is probably a longer shot than you imagine. But still a memory to cherish for the string of games he's put together despite the ineptitude of the hitters and defense not getting him W's. not sure that I would classify Chris Sale as cy young as "long shot." There are some studs out there but what he's doing this season, the streak, cannot and will not be ignored come voting time. Hell, who knows how far this will go...might reach legendary proportions.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Jul 6, 2015 -> 05:02 AM) Kinda think it's funny when it comes to the white sox offense people are trying to blame everyone else expect for the coaches that actually needs to be blamed and probably should have been the first canned and hasnt. Let's blame robin for the players not hitting instead of the 2 hitting coaches the sox have. Let's blame kw and Hahn for the players not hitting instead of the 2 hitting coaches the sox have. The sox have 2 hitting coaches peeps and they can't seem to get the hitters to hit. I think that's the first line of blame to go then trying to peg your manager which is not his job to teach hitters how to hit. Most of the guys that are on the team were hitting better last year here or some place else and this year most are horrible. perhaps you didn't hear - Kenny Williams says that Steverson "does a great job" of getting hitters ready.

3...

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 2, 2015 -> 09:38 AM) they decided to go with Danks and let Buehrle walk Kenny.

DJ was talking about how great it was to have Gordon back this season.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 1, 2015 -> 01:06 PM) That's a pretty scary situation in CA. neighbors are now narcing on neighbors who water on mandatory off days. Definitely going to get worse before it gets better.

not to get all political, but it's so strange to see how much rain the rest of the country is getting meanwhile people are digging up their lawns here in socal because of the drought. If we can build an oil pipeline, can't we build a water one too? Okay, back to baseball.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 1, 2015 -> 10:13 AM) I would be in favor of playing it on the 20th. Not like Chicago and St. Louis are far apart. Can they play it in front of an empty stadium?

Why did we let Buehrle go again?
