greg775 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Man, that was a nice win. The top of the order was amazing. Please leave Lexi at second in the order, just because he's an above average to good major leaguer. Thank you. Rios' bomb was crushed. He looked so confident tonight in raking all those hits. Peavy did very well. Are nights like this so difficult? Keep it up, Sox. You got a lot of work to do a week and a half into May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not nearly as bad as you guys make him out to be with the glove. Yea he is below average, but so is Konerko. Dunn is actually pretty decent at scooping throws and has more range than Konerko. I think Hawk has tricked a lot of people into thinking Konerko is a good first basemen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 This team just needs to score runs. They played TB, Texas, KC and the Mets, all of whom had their aces at one point, and were .500 against them despite hardly being able to score. They have scored the fewest runs they have scored through the first 30 games since 1968. If they can get some offense, despite what Andrew thinks, this is a good team. If they continue to hit like they have hit, they will get buried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is a we only post when we lose thread, that's not true. Nobody watched the game last night thanks to the Bulls. Slowest game thread in board history.

Chicago White Sox Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 9, 2013 -> 08:10 AM) This team just needs to score runs. They played TB, Texas, KC and the Mets, all of whom had their aces at one point, and were .500 against them despite hardly being able to score. They have scored the fewest runs they have scored through the first 30 games since 1968. If they can get some offense, despite what Andrew thinks, this is a good team. If they continue to hit like they have hit, they will get buried. I agree. Our pitching staff is strong enough to keep us in most games. You don't throw in the towel in mid May, not when you have good pitching. The way I look at it is that we're 14-18 with basically the worst White Sox offense I can remember. Part of that is due to regression, part is due to injury, part is due to growing pains, and part is due to bad luck. Other than Rios & Gillaspie, our offense has been the definition of Murphy's law. However, this won't last all season. We get Viciedo and Beckham back soon, which will help big time IMO. At some point, guys like Keppinger, Konerko, & Dunn have to play better (Dunn already seems to be getting there). Flowers may not be the player I envisioned in the offseason, but he won't be this bad all year. And if he is, at least we have a wildcard in AAA by the name Joshua Aaron Phegley. I have faith the offense will get better, but whether it will improve enough to make us a playoff caliber team remains to be seen. But isn't that the reason we watch the games though? And at least we didn't dig ourselves an Angels or Blue Jays size hole. There is still some hope with this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pettie4sox Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Yeah if I were Ventura I'd keep shaking up that 2 hole spot with a Gillespie/Ramirez/Beckham combo until Kepp gets his head out of his ass. If you play Kepp, he hits 8th/9th period at this point. Does Jordan Danks make enough contact to be a lead off hitter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) I actually think Adam Dunn does a good job at 1B, Now if he can hit maybe he has a future in this game Edited May 9, 2013 by elrockinMT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 9, 2013 -> 08:00 AM) 4 posts for a winner thread? But trading Jake Peavy would drive the fans away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Christopher Kamka @ckamka 32m The #WhiteSox played 2 games at Citi Field. In those two games, they had their lowest (1) and tied for highest (13) hit total of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justBLAZE Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 To be honest, baseball is on standby for me as long as BHawks and Bulls are in it, but is refreshing to see the offense put a string of hits together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
