Oh yeah that would be better... just don't think we could get much for Danks.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 07:51 PM) I don't care if they have 5 strong LHP I do. 3/5 of our division is made of teams with strong right handed hitters.

I'm not saying Quintana is horrible... he might have value to get something we need more.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 07:48 PM) Sigh. We have a ton of left hand pitchers .... we have 1 right hander and he has been bad. Doesn't seem illogical to me.

We need to trade Quintana for a decent right hander.

Love Robin... great white sox But couldn't care less if he is there or not... not like it makes any difference one way or the other.

Yesterday the sox saw 106 pitches... today they saw 151...

Not sure what happened but from the 5-6th inning on our batters started actually taking pitches... It was an out of body experience.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jun 9, 2015 -> 06:18 PM) Atleast Robin is trying something new. Yes It looks fugly - however when you haven't hit all year. Sometimes you need to try different things. It's worth trying by Robin.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 8, 2015 -> 11:03 PM) He was actually at 3rd before the error. He could have taken home but got lost in the confusion. Altuve took second on it. Ahh okay that makes sense thanks

Someone explain that to me? single single..runner goes to third on error by Cabrera. strikeout strikeout Infield Single by Correa.. runs scores. runner on 1st 2 outs. Walk Fielders choice out? I don't get why that run is earned without the error it never scores.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 8, 2015 -> 10:30 PM) Even on a night where Chris Sale is other worldly, The Misery Crew is here to take a sledgehammer to people's ankles. Thanks to all of the Kathy Bates' of So talk. Please lol... yeah we can win when Chris Sale pitches. We all know that... however what about the rest of the week? I'll be happy and pretend I didn't see a bunch of horrible/brainless at bats tonight which is the official trademark of the Whitesox the past few seasons.

Not sure we can continue to play a 2 basement that hits .140... 2b is an important defensive position but c'mon sometimes its where people sacrifice a little defense for hitting. Sanchez isn't the guy.

just a tiny cell if you look at the radar.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 7, 2015 -> 04:04 PM) 2nd basement? Good play on words, albeit perhaps unintentional. Statistically, that position has to rank last in the majors unless its Utley. And everything Avi contributes offensively, he cancels out on the defensive side. Yeah the basement think was unintentional... I saw it and then was like... no not fixing that it actually makes sense.

The offense was bad again. But if Shark pitches like I used to believe he is capable we win.

1. Robin Ventura is nice guy, great sense of humor - not a MLB manager. 2. Melky... WTF is going on. 3. Abreu... decent but his last two bats today were jokes. 4. .145 avg 2nd basement. 5. Shark... I really hate him at the moment he was great against the sox ... now we get him and he is a steaming pile. 6. Danks and Noesi are meat... 7 Avi has potential... but his approach is childish at the plate like many of our hitters. We don't coach like pros, we don't play like pros, we don't look like pros.. From top to bottom.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 7, 2015 -> 03:09 PM) lol. Yes, treating grown men like kids will fix everything. Never said I would to treat them like kids.

Jeff costing him self a lot of money... Up 4-1 and cant even old the lead through 6... I

Wow Jeff you are a fraud.

I guess I could never be an MLB coach because I'd have chewed both Melky's and Abreu's a** after those two at bats. These guys under ventura - its just a sleep walk. I'm sure robin talks to them like men and that's nice and all But to me these guys need someone to piss them off to wake them the eff up.

On AVI's homerun looks like the wind was blowing out to left not right.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 6, 2015 -> 11:00 PM) He's had some good starts too the last two years. Noesi is much worse. Remember he just pitched a complete game recently. Danks isn't trash and we have a lot of players way worse than Danks. Both are pretty bad yes... Hector had a 4.39 era with us and 1.33 whip last year Danks was 4.74 era with a 1.44 whip last year. Noesi much worse? maybe historically but with us I'm not sure who has been worse.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Jun 6, 2015 -> 09:22 PM) Danks is the 5th starter. If he wins every other start that would be okay. It's not just about did he win or lose its also about does he give his team a chance to stay in the game. In the end its hard for me to blame him when the team scores 1 run. But John Danks just doesn't have MLB stuff or control.

There is one pretty consistent thing this season.... Our offense is bad.
