That said, it seems like it’s been a couple of years since the Sox have given Mr. Byrd the bird. I say paybacks are a bitch, and he’s due for some slapping.

Logic?

You don’t need any goddamn logic.

Just the passion.

Oh, and the swagger.

SWISHER HAS BAT ISSUES

a proposal

i’m going to start referring to alexei as “spider” ramirez. who’s with me?

by Ryno on May 21, 2008 9:42 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Im on board

but just for “Spiderman”. Tagging Ramirez on the end is too long. We need one of you crafty photoshop users to morph Alexei into Spiderman. Hell, we can make a whole superhero collection. Q is Superman, Alexei as Spiderman, and Thome as Mr. Incredible.

I'm crushed...

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

THE SILENT ASSASSIN JAVIER VASQUEZ WINS AGAIN

BA

is ba going to get anymore playing time now that he is batting 50 points higher than swish?

Downside is wasn’t that the first Wave since 06?

by vince_ on May 21, 2008 9:57 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I do too

Obviously, I thought Byrd would eat them up. I’m impressed. And I’m happy to see Vazquez succeeding—I like it when “unclutch” players come through.

by hitlesswonder on May 21, 2008 9:59 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Perhaps there is some real in-game coaching going on and adjustments being made?

If thats the case I’d expect a fluff piece on ‘Walker’s new winning formula’ or some BS, though.

by Trooper on May 21, 2008 10:02 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Tomorrow will be a good test.

Laffey: lefty and no ER given up in 21 innings. Lets see what happens if they (likely) get shut down early.

can we call up fields for a week?

dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.

Depends...

...can Nick Magic lay hands on his tendinitis or whatever he has?

nice

7 in a row…didn’t the 05 team win 8 in a row multiple times, but never 9?

Indeed.

3 I think. 2006 did a 9er (10th was Iguchi’s 7rbis in the 8th and 9th inning comeback but still lose game), but no playoffs. So I’ll be ok with a loss Friday.

by Trooper on May 21, 2008 9:59 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

What do you think about tomorrow night?

Will Ozzie keep the same lineup or go with Anderson/Hall against Laffey?

by stanchar on May 21, 2008 10:14 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

you tell me what YOU think, and i'll take the opposite. ;-)

A couple of weeks ago...

...I was pissed that I laid out big bucks for three- Sox-Dodgers games in middle June. Now I’m oh-so happy. I’m no Nat’l league guy, but there’s no more beautiful place than Chavez Ravine on a balmy summer night. Can’t wait
