Paul Konerko Homers Thrice, Deserves Own Thread
by The Cheat on Jul 7, 2009 10:30 PM CDT
in White Sox Game Recaps
Email
Print- Paul Konerko became the first White Sox hitter since Jose Valentin in 2003 to hit 3 homeruns in one game (full list here), as the White Sox pounded the Indians 10-6. Maybe he wanted to give the front office a vote of confidence after Brandon Allen, who some viewed as the Sox first baseman of the future, was traded prior to the game.
- Mark Buehrle continued his trend of BABIP luck, as he seemed to be getting hit rather hard on the night, in contrast to Clayton Richard's last outing, yet allowed only 3 runs in 7 innings. He gets credit for sticking around long enough for Konerko and Sowers to take him off the hook and get a victory.
- Chris Perez is my new favorite pitcher.
- Bartolo Colon is scheduled to start a rehab assignment in AAA on Thursday, but is MIA.
- Also from the article, Kenny Williams admits to being a bit handcuffed by the smaller crowds this season, and seems to acknowledge the mistake of the 'premium' pricing.
"We've been probably pretty short or a little aggressive in our projections and we might have to take a lot closer look at it, because, the Dodgers series was certainly an eye opener for us," Williams said.

i’m pretty sure he thought he’d just missed that one. i’ve seen that reaction off the bat on HRs from more players more times this year than ever before. that ball has gotta be juiced.

And there's also this . . .
Buehrle is ready to walk away from baseball. Not now, in the midst of perhaps the best season of his 10-year career with the Chicago White Sox, one rewarded this week with his fourth All-Star selection. Buehrle wants to finish his current contract in 2011, head back to his 1,200-acre ranch in Bowling Green, Mo., and pass up a shot at 300 victories and untold millions of dollars by retiring at 32.
"Everybody in here is calling B.S. on it," Buehrle said. "And it could be. Those two years could fly by and I could say I’m not ready to retire. But today? I don’t see myself playing past this contract."
perhaps $75M will be enough for him. personally, i can't imagine it, but some people live a more modest lifestyle.

I agree
Farmer is 10 times worse and more annoying than Jackson, Hawk and Stone combined.
Kenwo4life=ratings
how you figure?
i might be in the minority here, but i like farmer in the PBP role. sure, he’s no rooney, but who is?
i also might be even further in the minority in that i’m glad he’s paired with jackson. he was outclassed by stone, but the chris singleton era was just godawful. jackson doesn’t have to parrot whatever hawk says anymore and adds just enough to the conversation that there aren’t any pregnant pauses of dead air. jackson’s frequent attempts at humor that fall flat on their face provides a ton of unintentional hilarity.
this is rambling, but i just can’t believe anyone employed by the sox to be 10x more annoying than hawk. that’s entering santo territory.
These events have me frightened and on the verge of evacuating my bowels.
Rooney and Farmer was a great team, everything since then has been awful

Hawk was interviewed during the crosstown about retiring
He said that a few years ago he was thinking about hanging up the headset, but he had second thoughts after seeing a some good things in the team and the direction it is headed. He said that now he would like to drop dead in the booth while calling a Konerko walk-off homerun.
Think that will be the same day Ozzie drops dead while walking out for a pitching change?
Or whatever it was he said…

fangraphs on the pena-allen trade
apologies if this is a repost: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/the-tony-pena-brandon-allen-trade
The Sox have plenty of needs, but fixing the bullpen is hardly one of them. Assuming Pena will slot behind Jenks, Thornton, Linebrink and Dotel, all Pena figures to add to the Sox is half a win.
Well, maybe he slots ahead of Linebrink and if Linebrink continues to blow this should read “all Linebrink figures to cost the Sox is half a win”.

Alexei Ramirez
Great game Paulie. As I did some of my fantasy stuff this morning I ran across this preseason snapshop.
2009 Fantasy Baseball Outlook
Just to clear up some things: he’s not that young (27) and he’s not that good (.317 OBP, 59% percent success on steal attempts, poor defense). With all that said, a shortstop with a decent BA, good power and speed is going to have a lot of fantasy value. Ramirez moves to short full-time this year, and while his limitations are clear, so is the potential for Shawon Dunston’s peak, which will play.
Alexei has been the object of seam head hate (Joe Sheehan and Keith Law) and written back slaps from SSS (including me) for laziness at various times.
When its all said and done though don’t forget what the team has. A 4 year contract at a little over a million a year. Arb years.
After yesterday’s game Alexei’s line is up to .276/.328/.420
He has 23 walks. As many as Paul Konerko.
His Fangraph value thus far is 1.6 WAR or roughly 7.1 million on the year.
How hot has he been?
Try this line for the last 50 games
.316/.373/.503
The Sox got a freaking steal.
I haven’t exactly read a number of articles from folks considering they might be wrong about him (JRE where are you?)
Yes he’s maddening. But I’m just saying……….

"I'm just here to provide street cred and a rosy outlook"- translation - unemployed life coach
I don't know how anyone that watched him last year could think his slow start was going to stick
he’s a warm weather guy, plain and simple. He’s going to hit 300/330/520 or thereabouts and play average to below average defense somewhere in the infield. That’s still a good guy to have starting.

No its an aggregate number for Value over Replacment Player number for each player on the team.
In other words what’s done is done up to this point. The White Sox were negative for pretty much the first 2 months of the season and have gained ground quickly and steadily.
The Twins SHOULD be ahead but breaks and 23 games vs the East said no.
It doesn’t take into account pitching vorp (sorry should have made clear its hitting).
Overall though I think clearly the threat is Minnesota. I know, I’ve said it a million times.

That show strikes me as something more suited for Discovery Channel, in the vein of Deadliest Catch.
It’s just that the History Channel’s programming is skewing towards things like Ice Road Truckers and Monster Quest, things that don’t strike you as historically informative. A quick glance at today’s programming includes a glimpse into the technology of Batman…
Last weekend I watched a show on The History Channel about how all the founding fathers were masons and the signing of the Declaration of Independence was influenced by a ghostly apparition known only as “The Professor”…
Lately I’ve been watching a lot of Military Channel. I found I was watching History Channel to sate my WW2 documentary needs. Military Channel feeds that much more efficiently.

Nah, I work in a school so I am lame and I usually go to sleep early
At that time they can still afford to show Sham-wow (which I was close to buying a few days ago). I wondered where that sudden impulse came from.
Slap-chop is another great infomercial
I love when that freak chucks the “old fashioned chopper” over his shoulder and into the sink behind him.

the studes thinks kenny paid too much
White Sox acquired RHP Tony Pena from the Diamondbacks for first baseman Brandon Allen. Pena, 27, had a 4.24 ERA, a 1.53 WHIP and a 26/11 K/BB ratio in 34 innings out of Arizona’s bullpen. He’ll fit in well with the White Sox, but they paid a pretty hefty price to nab him. Brandon Allen, a born slugger, could have eventually taken over at first base for Paul Konerko.

Top 100 Great Leaps Forward
Gordon Beckham, INF, White Sox (Pre-season ranking: 28)
This is a matter of the quickness of his arrival more than anything else. While most 2008 college draftees are in Double-A at best, Beckham started the year there after a monster spring training, went 13-for-28 in seven Triple-A games, and was in the big leagues by early June. He’s done an admirable job defensively while learning to play third base as he goes, and after beginning his major league career by batting .172 in his first 18 games, he’s batting .405/.436/.622 since and looks like a not-so-distant future All-Star.

"To play for me you have to have some balls." - Ozzie Guillen (6/30/09)
Looking at the angles at a possible blockbuster trade involing GB
I have to think he’s not on the table. If they trade GB for pitching help THIS YEAR then they are back to square 1 at 3B, where the shit of Goggles and Fields has already cost them a couple of wins. It’s 2 steps forward and 1 big step backwards.
The goal has to be immediate improvement of the team. In that case then everyone and anyone not likely to help this year is on the table of course, but not Beckham or Dye or any of the other regulars.
Of course nobody is completely “off limits”, but the guys on the roster that will contribute to wins this year would have to be traded for a higher immediate return imo.
There can't be that many more valuable assets in MLB than GB
first-year player who’s going to be dirt cheap for the next three years while providing above average production — he’s gotta be top 30, no?
arguably higher
he should have avoided Super Two status and thus won’t be eligible for arbitration for 3 & half more seasons… He’s got nearly 7 years before free agency.

Not only that, but any rumor of trading Becks for pitching is rubbish, IMO. Even with the best pitching staff, if there isn't run support (and decent defense), you ain't going far. Becks upgrades both.
Also, the fact that we have Cooper says another thing…we don’t need a rotation of Halladays and Sabathias to have a successful pitching staff.
I sincerely do not remember a more exciting young player to come through our system. I’m still young, but hot damn, I am super effing stoked on Beckham and can’t wait to see what he does for the Sox.

Only the GREATEST poster in SSS history
We’ve all been so terribly worried whatever has come of our dear, dear friend.
Especially U-God. Those two were thick as thieves.

Nope. Normal.
WTGTD lurks around like Lucifer – changes shapes and identities often. And you don’t have to invite him in.
We’re a pack of a-holes.

I love this team again. I know they’re bad for me.
They’ll probably get drunk again and beat me… but I just can’t help myself.

This is random, but
I am very bored at work, and this post IS about Konerko…
Career Statistics:
Kong: .279/.352/493 314 HR 1014 RBI
DLee: .282/.366/.498 274 HR 881 RBI
Both are 33, Konerko has played 1628 games while Lee has played 1610
A little weird how similar those numbers are
BEARS
Nationally I think Konerko gets the right amount of credit
It seems he is rightly valued somewhat higher than D-Lee, here in ChiTown as well
Lee's got one of them world series rings too
to go along with three golden gloves and a silver slugger award
THANK YOU NATE SILVER, TECHNOLOGY IS THE TOPS
lee has a ring as well

Not. In. Chicago.
Therefore, it does not count. NOT COUNT!!!

When Paulie slumped last year, a lot of people knew it was a slump.
When D-Lee was slumping earlier this year, I heard a lot of people comparing him to Ortiz’s problems. Paulie just seems to be the way to go.

Excellent
When Beckham signed last year, he almost immediately vaulted to become our #1 prospect. Anyone have a guess as to what rank Mitchell would fall in around?

Hello, larry.
Seach. The man lives for this.
We’re a pack of a-holes.
by rhythm on Apr 14, 2009 1:45 PM EDT
Mitchell has a lot more holes in his offensive game than Beckham
I would think it would be pretty hard to rank him right from the get go…let him get some at bats and go from there.

after Poreda and Beckham "graduate"
I’d say he’s around behind Flowers, Danks, Viciedo and perhaps Hudson. Depends on what he shows us.
And our farm system returns to underwhelming like that.

Prospects are made to be called up...or traded

Very retarding when trying to argue the aptitude of the organization to self-righteous snobs, however

if folks aren't going to consider the major league team's needs/success/whatever
then they are fail.
THIS STORY ONLY ENDS ONE WAY
experts say #1
cause Dayan is #2
clearly
i'll delete your SSS existence in a second. there is nothing that allows SSS posters, at any one moment, to keep posting, but the mere pleasure of larry.

Mitchell will be #1
when Kenny finishes trading all of his top 10 prospects for relief pitchers

d'oh!
don’t worry, I had the same problem. Work it out with Walker, he’s here all day.
