  1. It was. Pretty sure he took a ball to the warning track in his last AB. To clarify, it was a decade ago. Also, he was not the last guy to do it, and he didn't do it for the White Sox.
  2. What the frack are you talking about?
  3. They paid their money and have seen the Marmol Show before. How else are they going to send a message that he needs to start earning his money by doing his job? (That message is already lost on one veteran.) If a few boos from the hometown paying customers rattle him in a meaningless May game, he won't see an October game. This the very definition of cro-magnon, meathead logic. Do you think for one second the the crowd "sending a message" will have any tangible effect? That it'll somehow make him "try harder"? Or that the FO will make moves based on a bunch of mouthbreathing knuckledraggers venting their ignorant rage? Yes, you're right, I'm sure Marmol's wildness it a matter of effort, much like Wood's injury problems. I'm also sure Marmol isn't aware that he's been pitching poorly. Don't worry, people are sending the message.

He'll only get that message if it comes from the crowd?
  5. That was covered last page.
  6. I'm trying to go first to worst apparently.
  7. That's not what the quote said. Calm down.
  8. Torii Hunter should. Or perhaps somebody who plays CF could.
  9. In other words, rabble, rabble, rabble.
  10. The scenario brought up had Soriano in LF, DeJesus in CF, and LaHair in RF to open a spot for Rizzo.
  11. Yes, dammit. I better never lose my hot ham and cheese.
  12. that was fast. It shouldn't be hard to sign your draft picks these days, but is there anybody signed who was picked ahead of him? Hope he wasn't desperate for his signing bonus to pay off his tab at Hardee's. I believe he's the first draftee to sign.
  13. It's rare to see a throw from that deep make it on the fly.
  14. It went from 41,210 to 41,159.
  15. For some reason it seems like Jabar Gaffney is in his 50s.
  16. I actually like the overly aggressive base running because of the crap roster he has.
  17. I didn't get to see or follow any of the draft on Saturday so I know I missed a lot, but why wasn't Leonard Johnson drafted?
  18. Dammit, I downloaded the wrong one.
  19. The only thing you get for free is scores.
  20. lol It's really not out of the question that we could lose 97 games, I'm suprised you think this is funny. If we go up and down the roster, for every player underperforming, you could also find a player not likely to continue at this production rate. Do you really think LaHair is going lead all firstbasemen in OPS by September? Seriously, this is the kind of logic/argument I absolutely hate. You begin by saying that, at best, we can win 65 games, which would give us a record of 65-97. Then when someone dismisses this (granted, without any argument, but still), you come back with it not being out of the question that we could lose 97 games, which, about ten minutes earlier, you said was our best case scenario! Does this piss anyone else off as much as me? I didn't see it the first time around, if you know what I mean.
