Real Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 30, 2011 -> 08:33 PM) Rios getting booed on the final play of the inning. Pendulum swinging back to KW in the idiot of the moment in the Ozzie/KW battle. Ozzie very close behind for not benching him. It would be perfectly hilarious if KW tried to order Ozzie to bench him in the middle of the inning...went down to the dugout or onto the field. That would be total awesomeness. "Lazy, Lazy!" from the crowd during this at-bat. He's gotta feel so small. I hope Kenny feels smaller. Edited July 31, 2011 by Real Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySox Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 30, 2011 -> 08:35 PM) Harden close to being traded to the Red Sox now. Looks like Clay Buchholz injury is more serious than originally thought. Lars Anderson and a PTBNL. Pretty meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 30, 2011 -> 09:33 PM) Honestly, I'm thrilled that just happened. Anything to make Ozzie realize how terrible of a player he is. That's the kind of play that gets rewarded with more playing time on this roster.

caulfield12 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Hahahaha..... Sox fans are letting Rios have it. Might be the highlight of the game...hopefully it makes it on the national sports shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco72 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I logged on specifically to complain about Rios...are you kidding me? You get benched, the manager gives you a chance to play, and you can't even play hard for a whole game? Unreal. At least the fans are booing him. At some point, you wonder if the man has any self-respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jul 30, 2011 -> 09:36 PM) Red sox just picked up rich harden from Oakland Yeah, that fits with their pitching staff, lots of DL guys, never know who will do anything, low cost. Now the Yankees, Pirates, and Braves are the only teams I can think of legitimately in the pennant race who haven't made a move to upgrade, and we match up with all of their needs.

kwolf68 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 30, 2011 -> 09:35 PM) Letting Rios hit shows how balless OG is. I agree. I have NOT been on the Ozzie sucks, dump Ozzie bandwagon, but I am beyond livid with Rios and our manager's reaction to him. There is ONE RULE about playing baseball...all the way from tee ball to majors...you play it hard. You hustle. you try. You care. If you dont do this, then you have NO BUSINESS playing. Ozzie lost a lot of points by not benching him. That was one of the most ridiculous plays I have ever seen...lazy fook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Jul 30, 2011 -> 08:35 PM) If you highlight the situation, I think your chances of trading him are nil They were never close to good. I do wish they'd just send him home for the rest of 2011 and send him his checks and forget his very existence until 2012 spring training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 This front office and manager makes it hard to support this team, it really truly does...at least to me 5-2, Rios laziness looms ever larger now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Beckham showing signs of life after another mini-slump. Unfortunately, nobody on base. Of course, it was an 85 MPH pitch...not the fastball. They should only throw Gordon fastballs until he proves he can dial it up and beat that pitch consistently.

caulfield12 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Has there been a more hated White Sox player? Cory Snyder? Navarro? Steve Sax? Wil Cordero D'Angelo Jimenez? Albert Belle? Swisher? Royce Clayton? Nobody booing Dunn really hated him, they felt sorry or frustrated with him, or for him....but this has reached a whole different level.
