NOTE: It seems the video was pulled from YouTube, but I’m sure most of you have seen it! Granted not the best video quality, but the best one I found for showing the whole ordeal and the announcers take from the Blue Jays’ side. Here’s the deal, easy pop-up, A-Rod rounding the bases and seemingly [...]

I don’t know about you Sox fans but I am sick of watching this team give away games with the walk. I don’t care how much Hawk says they’re aiming at a teacup, they’re major league pitchers and should be able to throw a strike. Mike MacDougal has been absolutely horrid lately so of course [...]

There’s no way around the fact that the White Sox have been playing just overall bad baseball for a while now. Even when they were winning a few series in a row they didn’t look like the team we remembered from 2005 and 2006. A big problem is the Sox, a team that won with [...]

I can take losing to Tampa Bay, especially with Scott Kasmir is on the hill because he’s got absolutely nasty stuff when he’s on. What I can’t take is the absolute crap the bullpen have been throwing out there lately. Andrew Sisco was sent back to Triple A after the game and if Mike MacDougal [...]

Sure it was a cold, rainy day in Chicago but the White Sox finally showed some life. The bats were there and what can I say about Nick Masset? Brandon McCarthy has come around for the Rangers by winning 3 of his last 4 starts and taking a no-decision in the other game, but we [...]

I swear Buehrle may actually be cursed. Another good game and another time he didn’t get his 100th career win. I know it’s easy to second guess a manager after things go bad, but I’d have let Buehrle finish off the inning. At least that way it would have been his fault if he lost [...]

Wonderful game overall, John Danks was on his game and took it to the Bronx Bombers. I had the faith, starting him on my fantasy squad as well. He’s getting better every time out and he actually got some runs today. Paulie went yard, which is a great sign. Dye hit the ball well. The [...]

It was a nice mild sunny Sunday afternoon, Mothers Day no less. It was the proverbial beautiful day for baseball. Too bad it was only the Royals that showed up to play. The White Sox pitching, which has been winning them games, had a bit of an off day. If you can call the Royals [...]

Almost two complete game shutouts in a row. Very good efforts by Jose Contreras and Jon Garland. Like they say, pitching is contagious. Unfortunately, the poor hitting seems to be contagious as well. On the bright side there are some signs of life coming from the bats. Who knows, maybe all we need is Jon [...]

Well the wheels seem to have fallen off so far this year. Nobody really seems to be hitting when it counts. Now it appears that Ozzie has dubbed Darin Erstad the fulltime leadoff hitter even after Podsednick is back from the DL. There’s no doubt that Erstad is a good hitter, and he’s doing a [...]
