And Alexei Ramirez...

at second base.

And against a lefty they’ve never seen before.

This team is going to score two runs today, max.

Meh.

It would only be a problem if Orlando Cabrera ever reached base.

by The Jerry Royster Experience on May 16, 2008 8:43 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I'm going to keep beating the drum...

Chris Getz went 1-for-4 with a double tonight.

Wes Whisler pitched 6 strong, but Mike MacDougal and Oneli Perez combined to allow six runs in the last two innings and blow the game.

LOL!

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

Welcome back, Gavin

Looks like regression to the mean...

And if Jonathan Sanchez for Crede (straight-up) was on the table this offseason, do you think that Kenny was stupid for not making the deal?

by SSH2005 on May 16, 2008 9:25 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I take it back, haha...

That curveball was fucking nastay. But these stupid walks and getting behind in the count early has to stop. Otherwise, Gavin will get hammered.

Well then make it work both ways

John Danks is juicing because he’s having an awesome season, and so is Carlos Quentin

AIM: SouthSideCheat

by The Cheat on May 16, 2008 9:52 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Swisher...

He hit 21 homers in 2005, 35 in 2006, 22 last season, and he is on pace for 16 this season.

I think it’s funny how you guys act like a ton of these guys weren’t juicing.

by SSH2005 on May 16, 2008 9:58 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Roid rage would explain a lot of your posts.

Sherm Lollar hit 22 homers in 1959, and 7 in 1960.

Sherm was an avowed user of the "linament"

rubbed into his biceps. Ted “Big Klu” Kluzewski turned him on to it.
Never was the same after ‘59 and geting tagged out at the plate by John Roseboro. I believe the 3rd base coach for the Sox was named FN Fox.

I took the "under".

What about Ken Henderson?

Went from 6 homers to 20 to 9 over three seasons. He must’ve been on some crazy stuff in ‘74.

I like how you are comparing baseball...

when every player was a skinny white guy to today’s game.

so, by inference

we can only bring up minorities with questionable physiques?

I like how all of a sudden...

...everybody who has a different year from a previous season is all of a sudden on or off juice, even though baseball history is littered with guys who had one big year.

But you do like playing McCarthy around here (Go back to WSI, homer).

You ever see Boog Powell? Frank Howard?

Or later, Dave Parker? Willie Stargell?

Cut it out, already.

I took the "under".

by winningugly on May 16, 2008 10:15 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Or Oscar Gamble?

17 homers to 31 to 7!

I remember '74

Big year for ‘ludes. Probably not applicable.

I think it's funny that you equate

the juice with success… There are far more guys on the margins of baseball who have been caught using. Did they just get the bad stuff, and the good stuff is reserved for the one’s you reference?

You know who on the A's was an obvious juicer?

Campy. Who could really play all 9 positions without some enhancement?

I took the "under".

shut your mouth!

Gavin really needs to stay away from the stretch

I think the first batter in his last 4-5 innings have reached

by 3E8 on May 16, 2008 9:41 PM CDT   0 recs

that's 6 in a row

because he allowed all 4 in his last start

7 in a row

(in innings not started by a pitcher)

That doesn't...

Eventually, all of these leadoff men on base are going to hurt him bad.

we need them for the Elias calculation

we want him to remain type-A

Will the leadoff hitter reach?

Anybody watching the Giants feed?

It’s like watching an f’in spring training game. They keep going away from the center field camera for pitches.

Maybe Floyd's arms tight

He was wincing as he walked off the field

by 3E8 on May 16, 2008 10:10 PM CDT   0 recs

I've been wincing a lot, too

Maybe he’s been watching his pitches as well.

I love Goose Gossage. When can we welcome HIM back to the Sox? Great feedback re: Joba’s mound antics.

I took the "under".
