QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 11:10 PM) I think we outta plunk Lorenzo Cain tomorrow. He acted like he hit a game-winning HR in the playoffs after he hit the one in the 9th. We really need to get a little more physical against the Royals. They have no respect or fear for us right now. Yawn. The macho stuff doesn't work when a team is full of p*****s. What was he suppose to do? Copy Captain Konerko's patented sulk?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 11:06 PM) Why should they be pissed. They just have to stay close til that 4 game series cause they kno they can beat us. Right? We should be up by 7 games right now. They have struggled against the Indians and were recently swept by the Royals. They lost a game with Scherzer on the mound who went 8 innings.

It's like a mirror image at motownsports. The difference is the Tigers are pissing away quality starts from the likes of Scherzer.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 10:58 PM) Still in first! Nice to see Dotel deliver for us.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 10:32 PM) He's better than Verlander right now I agree. There was a lot of pitches Verlander got away with because of a slumping Sox team. Trout is a stud. That was a great at bat vs, Scherzer.

Scherzer still throwing 98 in the 8th. Stud.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 10:05 PM) No, it's really not. I think people underestimate how much injuries have killed the depth on this team. There's s team from Detroit with 2 really good starters and best 3,4 combo in baseball and they are the ones playing mediocre.

QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 10:11 PM) Tigers and Angels 2-2, going to the 8th. Hopefully Angels end it in 9. Their pen is not so good.

What happened to Tim Lincecum this season? Injuries?

QUOTE (sunofgold @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 09:47 PM) Maybe morel should have been called up. Lopez was our only option at third. Hudson isn't playing third anymore. If you have Morel, you can use him for defense and could pinch hit for Lopez in a situation like tonight. Morel=3B version of Gordon Beckham. Maybe worse.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 04:37 PM) It shouldn't be ugly but you are right, it could be. The Royals still suck. Texas handled them 3 of 4 without breaking a sweat in KC. Sox should easily sweep and Detroit should lose 2 of 3. That's what SHOULD happen. It probably won't, though. KC will win 2 of 3 or all 3 and Detroit will win 2 or 3. NOooo, not those best record in the AL Rangers.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 04:41 PM) The two most likely posters in this type of thread Good one!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 09:28 PM) Or some miracle will have to occur with the Tigers just collapsing down the stretch and handing it to us, like the Twins in 2008. Liriano has gone from a very good acquisition to the enigma he usually is...and he's also exposing the bullpen to 4 innings of stressful pitching. They aren't exactly giving their fan base any sign of hope.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 09:18 PM) Lineup tomorrow ought to be based entirely on who has the fewest at-bats against Chen in a White Sox uniform. That would be Birmingham and Charlotte.

I hope Robin remembers this is a tie game. Wise can't play two positions.

QUOTE (Noonskadoodle @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 08:12 PM) We just can not buy a 123 inning... You have to wait till the Sox bat for that.

QUOTE (Noonskadoodle @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 08:08 PM) I think Ill stick to worrying about this team as of now....which have Youk & AJ Beckham is on that team you worry about.

QUOTE (Noonskadoodle @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 08:04 PM) LMAO please tell me you are joking? As long as he continues to play the BEST 2B in MLB I can live with his batting. It only works if the rest of the team is hitting. Imagine no Youk or AJ. Your bottom order is Beckham, Morel, Flowers. ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Beckham - knees bent, back on his heels. Looks like last years Rios. My suggestion is to have him work on being a switch hitter. What does he have to lose?

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 07:51 PM) Once robin waits too to make the change..... It's becoming a catch-22. Many starters can't make it past 6, so the result is wearing out the pen as well. The other sad thing is the Sox pen is far from clutch.

QUOTE (Andy the Clown @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 07:49 PM) Liriano won't be back. He's a mental midget. The prefect White Sox.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 07:46 PM) 5 of last 6 batters reached, only out was on a good play by Beckham. Cooper should have calmed him down after falling behind 1-0 to the 2nd hitter. A better approach would be for the line up to put a five spot on the board.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 07:25 PM) Liriano's slider tonight isn't sharp at all. Liriano keeping up the tradition of allowing runs after the White Sox score. They are the Blackhawks of MLB.

A.J.: "Dammit, I was tryin' to hit that back to the pitcher. Another test comin' Monday. Oh well!"

Hawk is trying really hard to be nice during this game.
