like losing to the Twins wasn't enough, or squeeking by BAL for that
matter, we manage to match their unearned runs with two worthless hits?
i hate to say it, but Walker's job has got to be on the hot seat right
now. I mean, we're all ready the worst BA team right now and this lack
of performance from our hitters serves us no silver lining. what
exactly were our hitters doing on their day off on Thursday? kudos to
#56 for pitching ANOTHER great game! I just hate the way we're making
the opposition pitching look so good (and we haven't even faced their
ACE), especially these last three series!

all said and done, I hope that tomorrow brings us better results. I'd
hate to think we've gotten our hopes up too high after such a good
start. With our bullpen rested for two days now, let's hope they remain
sharp. Watching the 1906 Hitless Wonders must have been hair pulling as
well, but at least they did something we've seem to forgotten how to do
this past week... W-I-N!

Go Sox, Go! (Who's with me? LOL)

Hi -irishmike,

Thanks for the compliment.  It would be really nice to be a
photographer!  LOL!  Not all of the pictures I send are taken by me,
some pictures I find on the internet.  The pictures from last
Saturday's game are pictures that I took, they're awful and blurred,
I think.

The pictures of the White Sox W.S. Monument were taken with my
cameraphone because I already packed up the cameras and was just
planning on going home, not staying around to see the monument.

Hope you caught some ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ's and are feeling ok.

Joan

I hope you got some sleep.  I took the pictures of the monument but I
did it on a rainy day and the first full day it was up so there were a
lot of people looking at it.  It's really cool to see in person and very
hard to see all of it in photos.

I agree the Sox have been pretty mediocre so far.  They really need to
step it up.  Without Santana on the Twins the Sox should always win at
least two when visiting the Tinkerdome.

What stinks about the losses this season is that the pitching has been
pretty solid for the most part.

Konerko celebrates big-league birthday

Key 10-year milestone gives him trade veto

Yes, the home page does look nice!  I visit the home page every day
because I am on "web only" (no e-mails) from this group.

And I'm always looking at the Sox schedule.  That's a "must-have."

Sox lost tonight, they got Boofed and I felt bad for Gavin Floyd, I
saw him on the field before the Sox game on Saturday, posing with
people for pictures.  He looks like a 6'5" 12 year old.

I wonder if Sox/Orioles had to burn the uniforms they wore all day
yesterday, soaked and cold.  The result of yesterday's game will be
held in Baltimore and the White Sox will be the "home team" till the
game is over, over, over.

Did you just change it?  Looks nice.  Sorry it's taken me so long
  to notice.

The relationship turned intimate after she later moved to Nashville and became a country star, the paper said.

McNamee contends Clemens used performance-enhancing substances during his major league career. "If true, it's just another example of Roger's pervasive prevarications which will be at the core of any defamation case," said McNamee's attorney, Richard Emery, in an e-mail to The Associated Press. "If the case heads to trial and is not dismissed, as we feel it should be, we will be calling (McCready) as a witness," Emery told the News.

Clemens sometimes sent her amounts of $25,000, the paper said. The 32-year-old McCready was sentenced last September for violating probation from a 2004 drug arrest and was released from jail last Dec. 30. The violation occurred in July when McCready was accused of scuffling with her mother and resisting arrest at her mother's home in Fort Myers, Fla. She still must serve two years' probation.

-I've been feeling that sense of Deja Vu for the past week.  Started
last Wednesday with Javi pitching 5 good innings and then getting
slapped in the 6th.  Ozzie pulls him too late.  We lose.  Danks
pitches 5 great innings on Saturday.  Unfortunately, there's no
offensive support and he takes the loss.  Does any of this sound
familiar?

Richard, among others, get their wish.  MacD down and Wasserman up.
This move somewhat puzzles me because MacD had the 2nd best ERA in
the Pen.  Sure his walks were up a little, but he had only 1 more
than Masset and Thornton.  I would've sent Doh!tel down because the
only thing he's good for right now is converting oxygen to carbon
dioxide.  On the other hand, Doh!tel was a "headline" acquisition and
KW can't send him down this early because he would be wearing egg on
his face.  I think Doh!tel will be haunting this team for awhile.  On
the positive side, just think...we could have Zito! (Who's now a
denizen of the BP).

If we bring up Owens, we say Aloha to Anderson.  After all, Ramirez
is a multi-positional player, and he can take his searing .133 BA to
any position.  Speaking of Anderson, I think he signed his death
warrant today by not making contact on the thoroughly ludicrous call
by Ozzie for Quentin to steal home.  There was only one out!  So now
Brian is relegated to towel/gatorade/sunflower seed boy until they
bring up Owens.

I believe we should keep the best players on the roster no matter
whom, and that Ozzie manages them properly with objective management
instead of subjective, which I believe he's been a litle lax in.
Hopefully Wasserman will come through.

We went to Saturday night's Sox game.  Before the game
started, we saw Wasserman doing some running in the
outfield and wondered why he was there.  Then we found
out after the game that MacDougal was sent down to the
minors, where he belongs.  Wasserman should have made
the team after spring training.

The game was a lot of fun, even though Buehrle was
pitching amazingly fast, the game was over 3 hours!

The place went nuts when Anderson got that hit.  Of
all people!  Glad he stepped up and he looked stunned.
  LOL!

Did anybody else go to Saturday's game?

I have 2 tickets that I can't use for the Grinder Bash this Friday
beginning at 5pm.  If you can use them and would like to go then send me
an email off list explaining why I should give them to you along with
your address.  I will announce the winner and send out the tickets
tomorrow morning.

The Grinder Bash is a party for season ticket holders that gives you

Congrats to member sydnbec for being the only one who got that right.

On another note, the White Sox WTF award goes to Octavio Dotel for
basically losing at least two games for us last week.  However there is
no prize for that contest lol.  I have a feeling Dotel will be the WTF

In Game Two, I saw the bullpen blow another lead and waste a decent
out by Buehrle, not to mention it was another example (both teams) of
how when a team doesn't score in key situations the opposing team
scores in the next half of their inning.

A win is a win, so I'll gladly accept the victory (WGN broadcast too!)
and keep our hopes alive for winning three of four against these
orange birds.

I have to agree that we're beating ourselves in these games against
the Yankees and Orioles. Nevertheless, the season is still young and
we're still the ones that everyone is unexpectingly chasing in the
standings. Let's remain positive... even when "Don't Tell" is warming
up!

btw, blame me for the loss of the perfect game in Game One. I rushed
home to listen to the game on MLB Audio and as I finally got the damn
broadcast Farmer was just about to announce the first hit... then the
eventual HR! Nothing is worse then jinxing the very team that you're
rooting to WIN... well, having to watch highlights of the 2005 World
Series when you're half a planet away wasn't exactly my idea of
paradise either!

I figured AJ would start in Game Two, but I thought I had read
somewhere that AJ doesn't catch for Buerhle very often... or perhaps
I remembered it backwards. Nevertheless, Hall received two of the
five hits in a losing cause while I wonder if Swisher could be
dropped in the order to compensate for his lack of hitting thus far.
Here's a head scratcher, how about this for a lineup while Dye is
nursing an injury:

1. Swisher RF
2. Cabrera SS
3. Crede 3B
4. Thome DH
5. Quentin LF
6. Konerko 1B
7. AJ C
8. Uribe 2B
9. Anderson CF

Somehow I want Joe with more ABs and opportunities to drive in clutch
runs (remember, putting Fisk at #2 worked wonders in 83), putting
Carlos between Jim and Paul avoids many of the DPs we've seen this
season, and I could even see switching Paul and AJ if #14 doesn't
start hitting more consistently. Once Dye is more healthy:
drop "MacNoodle" to AAA, consider giving Dotel his overdue walking
papers, bring up Owens and Wasserman... and let's put together some
winning streaks!

another waste of a wonderful SP performance by a lack off offense (5
hits? and two were by Hall and 1 by Thome?) and ANOTHER terrible
showing of "Don't Tell" and a rare sloppy defense. better luck next
game, White Sox!

A day off from the PPD game, why was Hall catching in the lineup? esp
in the first game when Mark is pitching the second? Swisher is
starting to look like Uribe with his 0 fer NOTHINGs. we score one run
and that's in the ninth? I don't remember blowing out the previous
opponent which seem to be our track record lately.

hope to see Anderson start CF, unless Ozzy is using him as a towel
boy or something. If we're not going to use him, then we need to
TRADE him. and if things don't start picking up, Dotel needs to be
given his walking papers... he's as bad as watching Jose pitch last
season. We have minor leaguers pitching better than he has
demonstrated, including Spring Training. We needed three wins from
these orange birds from the East Coast.

okay, i've blown off enough steam. time for game two! Buerhle better
start getting better run support... and leave Dotel to throw batting
practice to Uribe/Swisher! just kidding... LOL

Go Sox, Go! (i'd rather be shouting "Sox Win, Sox Win!)
