par for the course
one an hour is what we've been averaging so far.
"Aw, how could he lose the ball in the sun, he's from Mexico."
I would have thought board activity would have slowed down by now
Good to see some of us excited still, despite all the off-season moaning and groaning.
"I'll bring the awesome." -The 'Swish'
once the sox lose three in a row
it will.
"Aw, how could he lose the ball in the sun, he's from Mexico."
Pretty much no one who didn't at least make a debut last season
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
with the momentum they got going now
i don't see them losing again this year. in fact, i guarantee it.
I said it in the other thread
but Uribe never had to resort to that spin and mid-air throw, he'd just plant and gun it. OCab doesn't have the arm to do that, he has to rely on a quick release. I'd prefer the cannon at SS.
Wow - the calls for Uribe's head last year
seem so far away.
Front-running is fun, ain't it?
I took the "under".
I never complained about his defense, it was his offense that gagged
If he's going to be on the field anyways, the better defender should be at SS. But it's too late now, the time to do that was in the spring.
Not necessarily calling you out
but the board was rife for his head last year, and it wasn't just his offense. Many comments about his range and accuracy.
Perhaps 2B is his slot.
I took the "under".
I'd much rather he be gone completely
And we find a solid 2B, but if we have him on the field, put him where he is most effective, SS.

yup
people seem to be thinking about uribe like they think about detroit pitching.
"Aw, how could he lose the ball in the sun, he's from Mexico."
He certainly lost a step last year
But he looks like he's regained some quickness. Dropping 10lbs will do that. Uribe is still young, especially compared to OCab.
Uribe
Wonder if he'll get hurt at some point at second base? He seems to have trouble turning around with all that much quickness. I think his arm will make up for anything he might lose compared to other 2B's, but what if a guy comes in strong?
by Grinder in Training on Apr 6, 2008 9:09 PM CDT reply actions
He's not smooth at all on the pivot yet
He's played 2B when he was younger, hopefully he just needs more reps out there.
I'm filing a complaint with the fcc...
against AJ and ESPN. Don't they know young kids are watching this game....and drinking beer.
i'm assuming other teams have video
but maybe we just send them a telegram with a boxscore clipping attached.
yeah, he's been pretty offensive
oh, wait, you're talking about joe CREDE.
"Aw, how could he lose the ball in the sun, he's from Mexico."
Yeah, I could care less about Granderson right now
That was way too close to just let go with replay
So has any reason been given for the blond facial hair?
Upstate NY papers don't care about the Sox for some reason.
story has to to do with a rabbit, some maker's mark, two hookers, and a wiffle bat
i can see why the papers haven't covered it.
"Aw, how could he lose the ball in the sun, he's from Mexico."
haven't we all?
and we've all had a guy like toby tag along.
"Aw, how could he lose the ball in the sun, he's from Mexico."
i can't say we had a "toby" there
wait a second. oh shit. i was the "toby". i was the "toby". fuck me.
...I didn't see lube on that list
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
That's the sort of thing that needs to come on the warning label

Jim might take issue with you there

Brian Anderson is our Darko Milicic.

He might stick around as a defensive substitute
The way this offense is clicking there is absolutely no need for Owens anywhere on this roster.
Please put your seatbacks and trays in their full upright position...
...this may be a rough landing. Mac is in.
I've got the under
Brass balls: I wear em.
also did you get my comment re: a2 plans?
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Dude I have been touting the advantages of the ole Oxidized Big Brass
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Good as time as any
To help him get some confidence in a game that means nothing.

that's their countdown
it will get cheaper everyday until someone buys it. they just created it.
"Aw, how could he lose the ball in the sun, he's from Mexico."
clap! clap clap! clap! clap clap!

Not even The Arsonist could screw this up right?
...right?

Clemente vs Kaline
Interesting discussion at Joe Posnanski's blog about it.
http://joeposnanski.com/JoeBlog/
I walk past Roberto Clemente High School every day
Kids try selling me drugs
Bloggin'
http://bierjournal.blogspot.com/
I'm not anti drugs
But I aint buying em from some child, haha
Bloggin'
http://bierjournal.blogspot.com/

I also saw what I assume are kids from that HS trying to steal a car the other week. Junior Achievers indeed.

probably not by clemente
wrong side of the park
"Aw, how could he lose the ball in the sun, he's from Mexico."
I remember working with gang kids in Kelvyn Park
and Prosser in 1980-81. They're everywhere.
I took the "under".
real Americans do their duty to help out in this economy
get yourself a G Pack. For great justice.
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
What the helll....
Does that have anything to do with anything....Jackass. I'm sure they sell drugs at Sandburg high too....Does that make carl sandburg a drug dealer?
Yes.
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
No I think its because its Roberto Clemente High
It was a rational very serious social commentary I was making

Damn the Tigers are cold
If even MacDougal can close an inning, I guess even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
He could have flopped on the ground...
...and blocked it like a hockey goalie and still had time to throw PK out.
Colin, where'd you go? I lost that ticket post
Yes, saw your comment. No problemo, I'm sure someone else will want to play hookie.
alright cool
it's going to take a Weaverian effort to manage this stuation properly
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
don't think I haven't man
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
French tickler? Mariachi band?
Serenade her. Just like in "Breaking Away". Or play Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes", like in "Say Anything".
I took the "under".
Konerko on base every time you turn around!
Paulie - your future lead-off position!
I took the "under".
Get Jerry back,
IMMEDIATELY!!!!!
'08-to-date --- 1 triple to RF against the Sox.
You need to try and find video of this throw from yesterday's game
but make sure you bring a change of pants
that's 2 buckets of balls
at LEAST
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
if some one could descibe the action,
if only slightly, it would really help me, and probably others out. I staring at gameday here, and QQQQQQQQQQ!!!!! is not helpful.
A long one now, Brian.

Ha...maybe Dombrowski should call KW and
ask for Matt Anderson back
This is getting out of hand
Uribe with the two bagger? When Uribe and Crede are pouring it on, you know your bullpen sucks
ba ks
thats too bad. I still like him, but the difference is this year the team has Quentin and Swisher...so outside of being a 4th OFer, he doesn't have a whole lot of value for them right now.
carlos quentin outfield assist
anyone got a link for video on that? thanks
The video recap on mlb.com doesn't seem to have it.
I don't know if you can find game video anywhere else on the internet (legally)
a bases loaded triple and a bases loaded double in the same game
these are not your 2007 chicago white sox.
aww poor BA
he tries hard
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
I think we might pull this one out
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Hope this year is different than last year
I can't tell you how many times last year I thought "We can't blow an 8 run lead, right?"
Guess he's human.
7 RBI day and then that happens.

I'm stoked for leyland saying
"This team battled back [against macdougal]. THey never once quit. they came up short, but you could see they weren't going down without a fight [against macdougal]."
it will be in the postagme conference, i gaurantee it.
eesh.
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Probably a bit tired
Two innings more then he's used to.

just setting the force up at any base for the inevitable ground ball
how silly of me
"I'll bring the awesome." -The 'Swish'
Sloppy, but brutally effective
Boy, it's nice to be handing out the asskickings instead of being on the receiving end.
What's with A.J.?
"We're gonna bring it all day, everyday...we're gonna keep grinding it out." - Nick Swisher (4/1/08)
Oops...must not hit ENTER button...
What's with A.J.?
His BA dipped to a mere .500...what a slacker!
