QUOTE (Reddy @ May 25, 2009 -> 09:00 PM) look who made a nice play... I know Figgins is fast, but if Fields doesn't make that play he should be anywhere near majors.

DJ Carrasco warming.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:54 PM) I would get frustrated with me if I were you also. THis too shall pass! by the way, I cannot believe the Indians actually won this game, i think they were down 10-0 at one point. Yes, yes the were haha.

Carlos is ok! per kenny

JD!!!

QUOTE (ChiSox420* @ May 25, 2009 -> 08:21 PM) How do you know that?

Carlos was helped off the field but ended up walking on his own in the dugout. Let's pray it's nothing serious.

We're screwed. Get BA in there.

Broken bat sigle for Jermaine, keep it going Jimmy.

Let me add that we only trade for Figgins if we are still contending. If not, then yes, have Fields play the summer see if he can turn it around, I'm not calling him a bust just yet. Not sure of Figgins' contract status, he would do us great this year tho.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 25, 2009 -> 07:54 PM) In all seriousness...where would he play? If Kenny can find a way to get Figgins here, playing third base, I'm up all for it.

Acquiring a leadoff capable 3B would solve this team two problems.

Detroit cruised in the first game behind Verlander.

Podsednik CF Ramirez SS Dye RF Thome DH Konerko 1B Quentin LF AJP C Fields 3B Getz 2B Danks What does Anderson have to do in order to start ? I'm guessing show that he can leadoff ?

In a rare, wide-ranging interview on ESPN 1000, Reinsdorf, who is the chairman of the White Sox and Bulls, also discussed steroids and why he thinks his Sox have struggled this season. "I think we've moved on [from Peavy trade talks with the San Diego Padres]," Reinsdorf said. "I think we were ready to do it last week, but we have to move on. We can't just keep everybody in limbo. "There's a reason why a player has a no-trade contract, because he doesn't like to be traded. I thought it was a long shot. I know a lot of National League pitchers don't like to pitch in the American League. It's much tougher in the American League. I always thought [the trade possibility] was a 50-50 proposition." With a general manager as aggressive as Ken Williams, Reinsdorf didn't discount the possibility of other moves being made. "Quality pitchers are very hard to find, but you never want to underestimate Kenny," Reinsdorf said. "He's always thinking. "But maybe it was a good wake-up call for Clayton Richard [who reportedly was part of the trade talks]. He came out and pitched a heck of a game the other night. Maybe we don't need Jake Peavy." Reinsdorf said it was too early to assess the Sox, but he did spot weaknesses. "Obviously, we haven't hit," he said. "Starting pitching has been less than what we hoped for. The bullpen has been excellent. The biggest thing holding us back is we haven't hit. I'm sure we will. You're looking at a bunch of guys who hit in the past, and there's no reason to think they won't hit again. "I certainly didn't think we'd be five games under .500. We're not doing as well as I thought, but it's still a wide-open division." Full Story. On the bottom there's a link to the actual interview.

Damn it Bobby.

Great AB Alexei.

This team is playing some good D the last few games.

Josh comes through.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 24, 2009 -> 02:03 PM) Oh Alexei!!!!! He's looked good ever since being put in that two hole, don't you think?

Any average 3B makes that play. Mark's getting hit around today, we need more runs to win this one.

I don't think the organization will give up on Josh that easily.

We still don't have a home run out of the CF position because Brian is playing RF today :-)
