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.

QUOTE (G&T @ May 2, 2010 -> 09:13 PM) Back in the winter of 2006-2007, Rosenthal said that retooling on the fly won't work and hasn't worked historically and it would be a mistake. Here we are. It doesn't really work for losing teams.

Well he did come from an organization that has a history of losing. Then that organization is willing to part with him. Of course this proves again that defense is never a priority with this organization.

QUOTE (WCSox @ Apr 30, 2010 -> 11:18 AM) From what I've heard, Dye hasn't faced live pitching since last September. Even if he did agree to come back as a DH on the cheap, I don't know that he'd even be an offensive upgrade over Kotsay. That seems to be the point people are missing. He would be another .210 hitter for awhile. I get the impression he doesn't want to play baseball anymore.

Well my optimism lasted for about 10 minutes. Back to reality.

When I saw the line up, I'm just going to assume a L. I probably won't watch. I don't feel like getting pissed off tonight.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 04:44 PM) I'm confident given the same number of ABs, Wise would have put up better numbers. He could at least hit it out of the infield for a potential sac fly. I would even prefer Carlos Zambrano in the 9th spot.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 04:05 PM) Actually, in the past week, scoring late has become the rule. Last night scored all 5 runs late, the SEA series was three straight late wins. That's pretty odd for the Sox.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 11:14 AM) His actions have spoken quite differently. Nope.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 08:38 AM) He wants to get into upper management. Either as a GM or an owner. I've heard him say enough times that he doesn't.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 10:13 PM) Whether the team can be rebuilt in short order is anybody's guess. I don't think it can. Losing teams make trades out of desperation and seem to get the short end of the stick. Let this season tank.
