Murderer's Row
if you don’t define “row” as “a contiguous straight line”. Some are not murderers, just verbal abusers.
I took the "under".
or do you mean that it's just an arguement / disagreement between murderers?
because then the murderers could be arguing over the lineup.
Which then begs the question, are there any murderers on this site, given that arguments regarding the lineup are commonplace?
FWIW, I think larry took out SoB in the kitchen to avenge logic’s death. Market Maker tortured swishit in the basement, but then who was in the library???
Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.
Wow, file that under "TMI".
Peder, you old bastard, are you sure it wasn’t during the Great War? If so, all would be forgiven.
;)
I took the "under".
Just quoting Shawshank Redemption
And I don’t remember the Great War all that clearly.

if i took out swishit, then it was in the way
that hanibal lecter took out the asylum inmate miggs who flung his jizz at clarice, purely psychologically.
wow, what a weird reference. i kinda just creeped myself out. im gonna try and reel it back in. it’s a little early for me to be delving into this kind of subject matter.

White Sox third base prospect Josh Fields was placed on the disabled list at Triple-A Charlotte because of right patella tendinitis.

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.
that probably helped his K rates and fielding issues
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.

Just call them Mr. Pink

Thye are breaking out the pink bats, too – this weekend, maybe? MarketMaker, Pete, et. al. can line up and get the throbbing pink Quentin bat, I believe.

Earlier today, Nick Swisher (ring leader), Toby Hall, John Danks and Bobby Jenks had their facial hair dyed pink in honor of Mother’s Day. Swisher, Danks and Hall also will make a donation to the Lynn Sage Cancer Research Foundation (Chicago) on behalf of all White Sox players.Ozzie joked that if it meant the team got hot, he’d paint his beard pink as well. You might see everyone around here sporting pink soon.
A group of children from Bear Necessities Pediatric Cancer Foundation, a national organization whose mission is to eliminate pediatric cancer and to provide hope and support to those who are touched by it, attended as part of the Nick Swisher Foundation’s “Swish’s Wishes” program, and assisted with the players’ hair coloring.

Re: the engagement or the house?
shaftr, what ever happened re: your internship interview? Did you get the offer?
I took the "under".
I think Keith is the one who had an interview
My last few months have been busy though. Position change in October, engagement in February and we’ll be in a new house in June.
they are going to get this in though?
dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.
Yes
Before the game (7:11) Bossard said that a 8:15 start is probably the most likely. I trust him. 10 more minutes.

JD just gave Cuddyer a free base there
Took his sweet ass time getting to that ball
AIM: SouthSideCheat
No kidding
Shades of Ross Gload, and his ability to stay out of the camera shot on balls hit to right field.

He's nursing that groin
His defense will probably be pretty weak here on out, shades of ‘07.

Please tell me we ARE going to pound Livan tonight
I need some reassurance, getting skunked by this clown would suck.

Getting hard hit balls...
...just most of them have been in the vicinity of a fielder who makes the play.
Swish, jeez
He came with the rep of going into some ferocious slumps – Exhibit A the last few weeks.
"The little things are always in my mind," he said. "I always like to move the guy over, I like to bunt."
Konerko struck out on a pitch that was going 57.6MPH* as it crossed the plate

I know, it was an eephus pitch – that’s why I was begging for reassurance that we pound him.

You see it a lot more in football
where the defense gets fed up with the offense, or vise versa – rarer in baseball. But these pitchers have got to be fed up, you can’t go out there and throw like this every night and have this bullshit offense backing you up.

Your dadgum right
That Catfish, man, he’d give you a 1,000 innings every year.
"The little things are always in my mind," he said. "I always like to move the guy over, I like to bunt."
wow. look at his 1974-75 seasons. he was a machine.
48-26. 53 CGs. 13 SOs. 646.1 IP. WHIPs of 0.986 and 1.009. ERA+s of 134 and 144.
that is fucking dealing full-time.

Noboby, I mean nobody, would pick up the ball for you like the Catfish….nobody.

he woulda taken the mound every day if they'd a let him.

Oh, definitely
"The little things are always in my mind," he said. "I always like to move the guy over, I like to bunt."
Do you think anyone in that ballpark is suprised
that we didnt score AJ from 2nd in this inning? Its really bad when I see AJ double, my dad walks in and says “Hey, thats a good start”, and then I reply “Hah, not a chance he scores though”. Man I fucking hate this offense, so predictable.

Fucking barbarians
Gaither worked very hard to motivate his players. He would say, “I like my boys to be agile, mobile, and hostile.” It is reported that he would hide an onion in his handkerchief to work up tears in his pre-game pep talks.

the black hole of the roster?
i wish someone had told me that sportsnation had replaced rationality with caps lock.
Glad I left before they piled it on
Of course I’m not smart enough to turn it off
Maybe Owens can pitch
I hear he’s real fast
he's already got livan's velocity
if he can get his movement and control, he could shut the sox down.

7 runs yesterday
We must have used up the allotment for the week
Yep - took my son
Thankfully he had school so we had to leave – left at 10. Sadly I missed the trademark solo shot as a result
Boy, those are some hardcore fans
You definitely have to be the type who wants to get his money’s worth to stick through the rain delays and this game. I’m surprised they’re not sweeping the aisles already.
"The little things are always in my mind," he said. "I always like to move the guy over, I like to bunt."
that, my friends, is what is known as whip cream on shit.

Stop scoring, now! - Sox can always point to their good Pythagorean with Cuban pride

Alexei’s up
"The little things are always in my mind," he said. "I always like to move the guy over, I like to bunt."
cuban showdown

Thank God, Alexei need not be embarrassed by that
He didn’t strike out.
"The little things are always in my mind," he said. "I always like to move the guy over, I like to bunt."
On one hand, it's Cuban vs. Cuban
On the other hand, even his fastball is off-speed.

who's prouder?
