Trib on Dye
Jermaine Dye left Sunday’s game against the Royals in the fourth inning after being hit in the right knee by a pitch from Horatio Ramirez.

Dye, who crumpled at the plate and was helped off the field, was diagnosed with a bruise after X-rays proved negative. He most likely will miss part or all of the upcoming series against Texas.

Where did I blame the offense?

This one is on Danks and Thornton. Although I was shocked that Ozzie and his love for the lefty / righty matchups let Thornton get beat by a righty who kills the Sox.

you forgot that moron cox
run expectancy chart

bases loaded, 1 out : 1.65 runs; 1st and 3rd, 2 out: .538. epic fail.

gargantuan fail

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

I doubt he was thinking like a seamhead at the time

Took a calculated risk on the fly. It didn’t work. Moveon.org.

C'mon, winningugly...

That had to be one of the dumbest decisions by a third base coach that you have seen in a long while. Slow-ass Pierzynski running on Jose Guillen’s great arm on a ball in shallow LF? Did Cox even think about the situation before he waved him home? A calculated risk isn’t one that will fail 90% of the time. Who would want the bases loaded with only one out anyways? A walk, a wild pitch, or even a well-positioned out could have tied the game.

Stupid, stupid, stupid call by Cox.

He's an aggressive coach, which is probably why Ozzie hired him.

Wasn’t Guillen helod out of the previous game with back issues? Perhaps that was part of the game prep – discussing whether or not to try and take advanage of a physical issue. Who knows? Time to move on. The pitching lost the game, not the unscored run. We’ve seen worse.

and hey, it isn't like they had a hitter on deck either. the pitcher was due up next, right?

The risk could've been a better one.

My thoughts on Coxxie are posted for all to see since pre-ST. He screwed up. Time to move on.
