It's like he's a cyborg sent from the future to draw 22 walks a season or something.

" You know...
I think this technique of using the ninth inning of close ballgames as extended spring training for pitchers who’ve missed time due to injury might not be a great idea."

Hooray for Socialism!
It took over this country long ago, don’t delude yourself.
You are right. But larry is actually a prick too.

Are
there any scouting reports on Viciedo? I mean, do people think he’s going to be any good? Besides the initial power we all knew about?
the "experts" will tell you
he is still very young for the league and the sample size is still too small.
I, being an idiot, will tell you a guy with 30K’s and 2 BB’s in 125 ABs will never amount to anything.
Too soon!

Hey, 3 walks now!
That changes everything.
This is a hybrid. This is a cross, ah, of Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia. The amazing stuff about this is, that you can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus-belt that night on this stuff.
Just a hunch.....
Matt Holiday is our RF next year…..

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

Hoodie and Jim shared the stanchar gift/curse when stan went MIA.
Hoodie is responsible for that game where fields got hit in texas.

Dye suspended two games unless he appeals, in the wake of his helmet throwing incident in Cleveland.
You gotta be kidding me.
Fine? Yeah. Suspension? Get real.

In a way what he did was worse than touching an empire during an argument, and they get suspended for that. I really think he tossed that helmet with intent for it to hit the ump… I love Dye and this sucks major balls, but not surprised about the suspension.
I do think though 2 games is a bit too much though.
Lupe, release the balloons!
I don't think his intent was to hit the umpire.
If it was his intent, two games is way too little.

If he threw the helmet BEHIND the ump
it would’ve been a $500 fine.

White Sox right fielder Jermaine Dye was suspended for two games and fined an undisclosed amount by Major League Baseball for his actions stemming from an ejection Wednesday against Cleveland.
Dye was unavailable for comment after Wednesday’s game, but it’s expected that he will appeal the penalty, which will make him eligible to play until he has a hearing or until the matter is resolved sooner.
Whitesox podcast
Did any of you used to listen to Soxcast? The host left in January and it doesn’t look like they have found a replacement yet. I actually used to enjoy the show and discussions, sad to see it being dead.
Any other sox podcasts out there?
Lupe, release the balloons!
Soxcast was the only one I’ve managed to find. If they haven’t found a new host by the time I’ve finished my exams I’m going to have a crack at auditioning.

guy just follows me on twitter. so i’d like to know if it’s worth it.
