claydude14 Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Yahoo Sports has a little article up on Swisher, his facial hair and the attitude he's bringing to the clubhouse. Swisher fits in well with White Sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I like both of those jerseys. At the same time, it's hard for me not to like anything that involves anything White Sox on clothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joejoesox Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 (edited) great, another lefty pitching against us tomorrow, when will the madness end? edit: i hope he doesn't make our hitters look foolish, his stats are very bad, he had a WHIP last year of about 1.6, and he's off to a really bad start this year (9.2 IP, 7.45 ERA, 1.84 WHIP, 3 HR, 7BB, 8K) this should be the exact type of pitcher we need to face with contreras on the mound, to have a chance Edited April 16, 2008 by joesaiditstrue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has control problems, but he's a good strikeout pitcher, so on those days when he finds the strike zone he's a tough matchup. Hopefully the Sox can be patient and let him pitch himself out of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are season only. But, look on Stub Hub, or even in the ticket exchange on this site, and you can sometimes get lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's how this plays out before we assume the '08 are as bad against lefties as the '07 Sox were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Apr 16, 2008 -> 10:01 AM) Our ticket rep has told us you buy single game tickets for the scout and Jim Beam Club. However, I'm not sure if they are made available to the general public, so it's not much difference, but just an FWIW. That's interesting, I hadn't heard that from our rep. I might have to check into it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalls2598 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I was over in the Diamond Club reading the thread on the Royals, and there was the trivia question about Floyd Bannister's birthplace. Curious, I looked it up on Wikipedia. Turns out Bannister is in the list of Top 100 Strikeouts of all time (#99). And who is #81???? Javier Vazquez (actually, the list is not updated...Javy is now #80) Javy has 23 K's this season. If he once again gets near 200 K's this season, he has a chance to move all the way up to around to 60th of all time. Of course, there are a few active guys ahead of him: Andy Pettite, Kenny Rogers, Tom Gordon, Hideo Nomo (wow). Anyway, that's my random stat of the day. Here is the current list. Baseball-Reference.com rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Uribe, from what I've seen from Cabrera, was better defensively at SS than OC is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
