Bananarchy Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Sep 8, 2015 -> 08:03 AM) As a White Sox fan, it's not more compelling than our season. This is a special type of delusion. Our season is dead and the future isn't there. Not at all compelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all compelling. Delusion? I was simply stating that I am compelled to watching White Sox baseball. We could go 0-162 and I would watch 90% of the games. The Cubs could go 162-0 the same season and I would watch no more than 10 of their games, about half of those being against us. I don't care what our record is, White Sox baseball will always be more compelling to me than any other team's games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a shock that a White Sox fan enjoys watching White Sox games more than another team. So should we all just be in a constant state of misery like you?

I think Pittsburgh has a better shot at catching the Cardinals and then Jaime Garcia v the cubs in a play-in game is interesting to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the video I saw, Grichuk is playing CF today and can't throw the ball. Cubs scored cause he tossed the ball to Heyward to throw in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Cards offense, going after Brandon Moss (and giving up a good pitching prospect) instead of Lind is one of the dumber moves of this past trade deadline.

Aside from Lester, Montero has 27 ABs, David Ross has 32 AB, Fowler has 14 AB, Austin Jackson has 133 AB, Strop has 2.1 IP, Tommy Hunter has 14.1 IP, Wood has 3.1 IP, Clayton Richard has 6.1 IP (didn't realize he pitched for us in the 2008 playoffs), Rodney has 10 IP, Hammel has 15 IP, Haren has 19.1 IP.

Harry Chappas Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 If the cub farm system is so loaded why can they not find any serviceable arms out of their pen? The throwing s*** against the wall and hoping it will stick may cost them down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
