  1. This is so pure. Oh, and Gordon Wittenmeyer...take it easy. A keyboard can be a dangerous thing. Maybe try wearing safety mittens when you're typing your next article.
  2. Heads up to everybody- Cub v. Sock post-game shows are typically something to behold and probably shouldn't be missed- especially if the Cub wins with a lopsided score.
  3. Glad to see Wise continue to make contributions. He wore three other jerseys in between stints with the Sox, but it's still kind of surprising to me that he's on the roster six seasons after his (Sox) debut.
  4. Extra innings are just no good for your health in the long run.
  5. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 10, 2013 -> 07:46 AM) Paul McCartney is playing in Milwaukee and Indy, but not Chicago. Boooooooo I'm thinking about giving the Miller Park show a look-see. Wrigley in 2011 was excellent, but the venue was a big part of that. Miller Park won't have that going for it, unfortunately. I see he's playing Fenway this summer- if I didn't already have 5 other shows spoken for by my wallet, that would have been the one to attend. I was surprised that he's playing Bonnaroo. It just doesn't strike me as an event he would play.
  6. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 22, 2013 -> 05:18 PM) This is just amazing Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi 7m One more Mariano Rivera note: In 1379 innings, no player has hit more than 2 career HR against him. It's impressive to watch how dominant Rivera continues to be into his 40's. The first comparison that comes to mind is Barry Bonds. Roger Clemens is another one.
  7. QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 21, 2013 -> 06:27 PM) Sale scratched. UGH lordy
  8. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 21, 2013 -> 08:09 AM) Death toll jumps from 91 down to 24, not really sure how that happens. After some of the award winning coverage we've all been treated to in recent times, resurrections should surprise no one.
  9. QUOTE (Jake @ May 18, 2013 -> 03:48 PM) I don't like pulling him this early. Let him clean up his own mess or he'll never get better This. From the BP perspective as well- at least let him get through 4...
  10. ADAM DUNN AND HIS BAT @ Blanton (0-7, 6.46 ERA)
  11. Chris Sale (4-2, 2.88 ERA) @ CJ Wilson (3-2, 3.88 ERA)
  12. QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 16, 2013 -> 07:33 PM) Anyone else watching Zoolander get schtupped in Texas? It was like watching poetry in the form of a baseball game.
  13. QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 16, 2013 -> 10:57 AM) Then I'd have to stop what I'm doing with my other hand . . . Counting how many games in a row Adam Dunn will have a HR?
  14. Quintana (2-1, 3.72 ERA) @ Williams (2-1, 3.06 ERA) Win tonight, and you will almost need two hands to count how many games in a row the Sox will have won! Some people don't even have that many hands!
  15. QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 15, 2013 -> 09:02 AM) One game at a time and soon we will be in first place They're practically there already.
  16. 2 games. Axlerod (0-3, 4.17 ERA) @ Pelfrey (3-3, 6.03 ERA)
  17. Peavy (4-1, 3.03 ERA) @ Correia (4-2, 3.09 ERA) ¡go team!
  18. QUOTE (fathom @ May 13, 2013 -> 05:39 PM) It seems like there are less teams than usual that might be looking to sell. It must be the optimism about TV rights, etc. Teams like the Mets and Padres are talking about adding payroll despite losing records this year. Just an observation- it feels as if every year one hears about another 2 or 3 teams that acquire the license to print their own money via new Broadcast rights deals. At what point is everyone back to a level playing field? I know I read something a while back that had a pretty sizable group of teams (7 or 8 IIRC) on the verge of having their current deals expire by 2015 or so.
  19. QUOTE (MEANS @ May 13, 2013 -> 10:52 AM) it might be because it probably still hurts to swing a bat so he's not swinging at 100% yet, making him more patient up there, this injury could turn out to be a good thing. I was going to suggest this also. I hope not, but I've been watching White Sox baseball all my life, and the gut feeling is that this is likely the culprit. Doesn't have too be such a bad thing either- just line everyone up and strain some obliques.
