QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 11, 2010 -> 05:50 PM) Before he came up, they had talked about the high amount of errors he was making in the minors. I think he has really great range and can make some unbelievable plays, but is prone to simple errors. Kinda like the shortstop across town.

We might not see this many two out hits the rest of the season.

Even if the team was much better, the Sox still have this hang up when it comes to beating the Twins.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 11, 2010 -> 12:02 PM) We just haven't spend near enough in terms of international free agents and on the draft. Ahh but just think, how bad it would be it if Fukadome signed with the Sox. How is that Visciedo or whatever dude is from Cuba doing in the minors? Is he any good defensively?

QUOTE (fathom @ May 11, 2010 -> 11:20 AM) I agree...it was a team that needed a lot of "Ifs" to come true in order to really compete with a very strong Twins team. Yep. We really shouldn't be that disappointed. The team didn't get younger either.

So does this happen to other major league teams that are supposedly good to have many hitter slump at the same time? Or does this happen only in Chicago? They got the same thing happening on the other side of town and they are suppose to have a really good hitting coach.

It goes quicker when you offer to give stuff away. Freecycle is broken down into smaller communities and emails are exchanged in yahoo groups.

What you don't read in the news is the problems they are facing in Europe with the illegal immigrants from the Middle East. They have that same entitlement mentality.

QUOTE (whitem0nkey @ May 10, 2010 -> 10:48 PM) My fantasy football forum is my main forum, but for baseball im done with WSI, I was never banned, but i felt so censored while making post. I would get so mad at the lack of respect from the moderators. It's gotten real whiney over there and no sense of humor.

I don't like the idea of trading for prospects because that's what they are. I don't trust the Sox farm system either to further develop those prospects. The problem is losing teams always makes those trades. Those trades are made out of weakness.

QUOTE (hogan873 @ May 11, 2010 -> 06:22 AM) I don't think KW needs to be fired or threatened. He needs to be slapped for allowing Ozzie to convince him of the feasability of the rotating DH idea with Mark "Hot Wife" Kotsay being a key player! I think he would have gone harder after Damon or Matsui or some other bat if he hadn't been wowed with Ozzie's plan. Now it may be too late. Kenny and Jerry liked because it saves $$$$.

"Ozzie's Team" was put together to beat the Twins. Maybe it's time the organization start to model the Twins or the Rays and invest in your minor league system. It seems playing defense is the lowest priority in this organization. There is no situational hitting. There's plenty of players with low baseball IQ. The list goes on and on. Sending Beckham down=bad idea. Move him down the order. There's plenty of player who had great rookie season and tanked the next season. They hate participating in the free agent market and take risks on older veterans with hopes of being a comeback player. I'm all for restructure.

1st blown save and everyone's on the ledge.

I'm now permanently banned. I seen this after logging in. I called a couple of mods asswipes in a thread. It took them awhile to come to that decision I guess. That place has been a steady decline since last season. You have been banned for the following reason: Now you're happy - don't have to deal with us Mods anymore Date the ban will be lifted: Never

QUOTE (Special K @ May 8, 2010 -> 02:36 PM) Is anybody going to even mention the fact that Guillen made a terrible decision to let Buehrle pitch the 8th? Yawn. He didn't give up the lead. It was a bold move to give Mark some confidence.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ May 8, 2010 -> 02:56 PM) Not too difficult to "out manage" this team. Such a stupid argument, not a manager on f***ing earth would have done anything with this team. I agree. It will be interesting to see how correct some of these "prophets" are in their prophecies at the end of the season. I just want them to overhaul the whole organization. Get better scouts, draft better, better instruction, you name it. They don't like to spend money and often they waste it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 8, 2010 -> 08:37 PM) The Indians got one of the top catching prospects in baseball for Casey Blake. The key is...you deal for a guy at the lower levels, and you let him develop. I don't have faith in the Sox organization to even do that.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 7, 2010 -> 10:58 PM) l...except for the fact that the Royals and Indians MIGHT actually be worse than us Give Kenny some more time. I'm sure he's got a few for Royals to add to the roster. Might not be worse but heading towards equal.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 7, 2010 -> 10:50 PM) What's going to happen when the White Sox home run pace slows down? Do they really have a line up that can string 4 or 5 hits together? They are among the league leaders in homers and steals and coming into tonight have struck out less than any AL team and they are horrible. Something needs to be done soon. One series win this year. I bet they are near the bottom on drawing walks.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ May 7, 2010 -> 10:19 PM) Man, Alexei is awful at the plate. .240 OBP.. hell f***ing yes! He's awful period. A one year wonder. He seems to fit as the typical White Sox-low baseball IQ.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 7, 2010 -> 10:19 PM) f*** that, I'm more pissed about the 8th. Buehrle let them tie the game when he had no business still pitching. Not me. They only gave him 3 runs. What if the next pitcher gives up a hit? Mark gets the loss.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ May 4, 2010 -> 10:04 PM) We sure do love trading with the Royals... Yes. They appear more Royal like every day.

Just because MB wants to be a Card doesn't mean STL will want him. He obviously hasn't reached the point many pro athletes have in realizing it's a business and you are less outspoken about your favorite team was when you were a kid.

We need to replace Pierre with Pods when the Royals aren't looking.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 3, 2010 -> 01:30 AM) I just want Pierre ninth to delay my bad mood every night.
