fathom Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 1, 2011 -> 01:37 AM) It wasn't a great swing, but it's a hit 95% of the time. It was just unlucky that Andino made a great play on it. Jam shots and ground balls up the middle happen all the time. If that ball got through, I gaurentee people would say "There ya go Alex! Finally". But no, so instead it's extreme negativity. This board is seriously the biggest downer. Can't wait to get drunk tonight and not be depressed by this s***. It's more depressing here than it is watching this team play. Gordon Beckham had a flare single to right last night. It was more depressing seeing an awful swing by him result in a hit than if he took a great cut and lined out to left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 1, 2011 -> 01:39 AM) It really wasn't a spectacular play by the SS. The flip was nice, but definitely a play you get at least one out on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more depressing here than it is watching this team play. But isn't alcohol also a depressant? By definition, you're deliberately depressing yourself in order to escape from being depressed! Having experienced the 70's, 80's, 90's and 00's as a White Sox fan, you just don't see the light at the end of the tunnel with the Twins and West Coast swing looming. I'm not ready to throw in the towel yet on this season, that's insane, but if they just get manhandled on the road and swept two in a row by the Twins, it will be even more of a miracle recovery than the Sox last season. The ONLY way we come back then is if the entire division falls apart and comes back to us instead of us catching them. It happened in 2003. The problem is always the Twins. 26,000+ in attendance tonight. Pretty amazing, but it's fireworks Saturday, their one tried and true attendance generator. Alexei, have yourself a game!!!

caulfield12 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 13.50 ERA for Gonzalez, but obviously a former closer with the Pirates and potentially a K for Dunn. Which MIGHT be better than a double play ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
