When I said I wanted a boring pennant race, I didn't mean the offense should go into hibernation.

was it colin who suggested that we were in for a "offensepalooza"?

because i’m starting to question what exactly an “offensepalooza” is.

This game needs some flava

"I’m gonna rise up, gonna kick a little ass. Gonna kick some ass in the USA. Gonna climb a mountain, gonna sew a flag, gonna fly on an eagle. I’m gonna kick some butt, gonna drive a big truck. I’m gonna rule this world. I’m gonna kick some ass. I’m gonna rise up, gonna kick a little ass. Rock, flag, and eagle!"

He's still getting acclimated to his clubhouse locker.

We expected what from him? Got lucky with Tabasco so far, but they were Royals, fer Chrissakes.

Bring up The Arsonist.

Let us rest, heaven blessed.
Bring us home.

The thing that concerns me absotively, posilutely the most......

is our shitty, shitty, shitty defense.

And it seems that the powers that be are unconcerned.

Pitching, defense and health.

ortiz had a cheap hit and once the bases were loaded he didn’t give up any more runs.

Two fucking hits?

I also like how Dice-K’s two best starts this season (and maybe his career) are both against the White Sox.

No excuses tomorrow. I don’t care if it’s Michael Bowden over David Pauley. It will be the guy’s first major league start. They need to rock his ass after this embarrasing loss.

Only good news of the day...
Scott Linebrink (shoulder) will throw a simulated game Monday and expects to rejoin the White Sox by the middle of next week.
Linebrink said he won’t be rushed back into the setup role. “Even when I’m activated and they want me in a game, they’re going to be careful,” he said. “But if they see I have good enough stuff in these simulated games and get out there in a non-pressure situation and able to get through it all right, we can start working my way back into that role I was in.”

Yeah, this game is over...

Twins put up another two runs. 8-2 Twins.

Dan Meyer and Kirk Saarloos are terrible.

Meh.

This was a game they were always very likely to lose — the fact that it was 8-0 rather than 4-2 is irksome, but no more than that. The next 2 were the obvious winnable ones, so get ’em tomorrow.

by The Actual El Guapo on Aug 29, 2008 10:42 PM CDT   0 recs

No one likes to spend time in Boston, but it would have been fun to see the offense not sleep the whole game

Some random dude up tomorrow=Sox get no-hit.

It's a local boy...

Michael Bowden, who attended Waubonsie Valley High School in Aurora, Illinois. He’s only 21 years old but he is supposed to throw gas. Here’s a scouting report on him…

http://www.soxprospects.com/players/bowden-michael.htm

While the White Sox were busy drafting Lance Broadway at 15th overall in 2005, the Red Sox drafted this guy 47th overall. Brutal.

Kenny wanting Bowden from the Red Sox during either the Buehrle or Dye trade rumors.

not that it's gonna come into play tomorrow, but he's also supposed to be a great hitter and an awesome athlete.

Well...

Lance Broadway has a porn star name… so he’s got THAT going for him.

As far as pitching goes… did I mention that he’s got a cool name?
