I've never left a baseball game before the 4th inning. Today I did. That stadium was a disaster. Concession stands closed, no energy from the fans, Nationals almost had as many fans as the Sox did, etc. Despicable.

I've never been so disappointed to be wasting my time and money at a game ever, but hey I'll be 10 rows behind the Nats' dugout and maybe I'll see Bryce Harper go 5-5.

How many pitches until Taylor's on 2nd?

Boy, Machado got him good. Ventura threw at him twice and it was ON.

If Gonzalez has a good start in Rodon's spot, they need to consider doing something about Latos. He consistently does not pay attention to base runners, is extremely long to the plate with men on, and walks guys. This will not work out throughout the summer

Not really sure if this is the spot to post this but I have some family up near Minneapolis and I may go up there July 28-31. It turns out the Sox are in town that weekend. Any idea where the Sox stay when up there? I see they have a nice JW Marriott there. I've always wanted to splurge and maybe catch a few drinks with players in a visiting city after a game

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 6, 2016 -> 04:19 PM) Guy$, Guy$, Guy$ ... Money talks. Flash 5 million or 6 million at Leyland and he'll f***ing come back. Do it now. 3 mill for the rest of this season; 2 years 10 million dollar deal to follow. Just for him to turn the organization around. He will take the money; they all do. If he won't do it, flash a bit more at LaRussa. 4 mill the rest of this season and two years 14 million contract. it's THAT important. What is with your f***ing boner for Jim Leyland. Stop it already. He's not coming back and he wouldn't even make my top 5 list anyway.

Will Robin Ventura be the manager of the White Sox on September 1st? Probably/unfortunately How many wins will the Sox have when they return from Detroit on June 5th? 58 games scheduled through that date (33 on the road). Not enough More games started- Navarro or Avila? C. death Tim Anderson debut date? Never. Why would he? Rollins >>> White Sox All-Stars? 1 Mat Latos starts? Too many

QUOTE (thedoctor @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 03:29 PM) yes.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 03:10 PM) I am not sure when the last time we have had a minor league player brought up that has made a quick impact. Beckham was pretty damn good his first year.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 02:52 PM) It's called being a fan and supporting the team. If you don't have it I can't help you I believe he was referring to your consistent jumbling and misspelling of words, so although you took it the wrong way, I don't believe the point of your post helped your cause any either.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 02:45 PM) Rollins batting is my reminder to check the Charlotte score to see what Anderson is doing. 0-3 with a k today. And yet, I'd much rather see him go 0-3 in a Sox uniform than Rollins

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 02:34 PM) You know the real reason is that Austin Jackson is not in the lineup. Duh. Hawk would agree. "In all my 60 years in this game I've never seen one guy totally transform a defense quite like Austin has." Now if only he could do the same offensively and in the bullpen.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 02:30 PM) We are just a grand slam away from the lead And we're just 3 new players and a real hitting coach away from being able to generate a bases loaded situation

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 02:26 PM) At this point, hopefully Danaerys' dragons descend on USCF and completely destroy the grass to the point where not even Roger Bossard can make it playable for Tuesday. Frazier and Eaton continuing to stand out individually...at least. Aside from Eaton's defense, he's been pretty damn miserable lately.

This is laughable. Literally the only way that they can score is a lucky single by Garcia or some HR's by Abreu and Frazier.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 02:23 PM) The media will be back on the Ventura Death Watch again this week. Wouldn't be too enjoyable working in that marketing or ticket office the last month. Crickets. Sox supposedly sell 100,000 more tickets...poof. Can't wait to attend the game on Wednesday and again on the 15th.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 02:17 PM) I haven't done this is a long time, but I'm officially turning off the game. Our aces can't even beat under .500 teams, so f*** IT ALL. Fire Robin, Fire Steverson, fire someone. I want f***ing blood. This is a brutal trainwreck. Blame the aces all you want, but the offense f***ing sucks. Quintana would have had to have a PG shutout today, or else. F***ing sad.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jun 5, 2016 -> 07:59 AM) Win or fire Robin! In that case, just lose

My trade wishlist is from them to trade some vets. Why are they adding on? This isn't a playoff team.

What if this is Abreu being Abreu? He's been pretty bad since July/August last year, so perhaps the league has figured him out and this is the player that he will forever be.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 05:57 PM) Does anybody know if Jim Leyland is happy in retirement? Damn it would be cool to bring him in tomorrow. Gardenhire

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 4, 2016 -> 05:45 PM) This has got to turn around sometime right? The last 2 years would say no, so no.
