My WhiteSox! 13-2 since the break! Absolutely on fire, Carl hasn't done crap before last night since coming to us, but big 3 run bomb last night. Go Sox!

If I were you, I wouldn't be so happy . Despite having been a good team they do not get as good a ratings as the cubs. Ask yourself who watches white sox?

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-02-2003, 10:17 PM

Ask yourself, do I care? lol. You think the lack of ratings compared to the scrubs would upset me? No. I care about winning, and that's exactly what we are doing? I get to watch every game via satellite anywhoo, so the lesser exposure compared to the scrubs, while annoying, is tolerable, i see no reason it will change just because of baseball ignorance. BBTN and SC, actually baseball analysists have been giving the Sox love, that's what counts IMO

White Sox get all the love from analysts (past few years). They do not have a superstar, unless you consider the scrubs you have in your team as superstar.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-02-2003, 10:26 PM

I guess Frank (future HOF) isn't a superstar
I guess Magglio isn't either, lol. Silly me.
Please don't be ignorant here, we have a great team, lee, pk, carl, robbie, frank, maggs
colon, esteban (cy young mabye), Burhle, Garland

mavsfanforever · 08-02-2003, 10:32 PM

Please see where wite sox players rank in the top 50 current players in baseball on espn.com.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-02-2003, 10:35 PM

Oh give me a break, yeah, im sure that ranking system is all-knowing and full-proof. That is weak. Im not saying we are the best team in baseball, but a darn good one. We lead the AL in quality starts and are 4th in homers.

Btw, I am a stl cardinal fan. Its hard to find a rivalry between sox and cardinals. I will still try to support my stl till death.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-02-2003, 10:40 PM

Uh, I was never attacking Stl. Awesome offense, Pujols is a freakin beast, Rolen having a great year, Tino hitting ok, I like Bo Hart, good hustle and energy. Edmonds is great on O and D. The reason Stl won't win is because their pitching staff is so god awful.

mavsfanforever · 08-02-2003, 11:05 PM

BTW, you probably spoke too soon. 10-0 butt whooping by mariners to white sox.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-02-2003, 11:10 PM

I saw this coming, we are still on fire. Franklin has historically owned us, he's pitched a gem tonight. We started Danny Wright because currently we do not have a 5th starter. Danny was in AAA, so it is no shock he was roughed up. With MB on the bunk tommorow, we'll get back on track.

mavsfanforever · 08-02-2003, 11:50 PM

blah blah blah. Talk to me when the regular season ends. I think You guys are in a tough division and it would take a lot to get into post season.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-02-2003, 11:57 PM

blah blah blah, cute.

Well the same I can say, "blah blah blah"
One freakin game, still 13-3 since the break. Just trying to give you some insignt into the loss. How bout we make a bet, here and now, just for pride, fun, whatever, you name it (no spankings or WNBA tickets involved though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I bet you the Sox will win the AL Central this year.

mavsfanforever · 08-03-2003, 12:19 AM

I would , if minnesota was even close to what it was last season. Right now they lot to tigers and are struggling to be a 50-50 team.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-03-2003, 12:35 AM

KC is a bigger threat then Minny. Minny's staff is just plain sad.

Break it up you two.

You are both wrong. The Seattle Mariners are still a better offensive team than both Sox and Cardinals. They are in the lead of the toughest AL division, that includes last year's Champs, and the team with the league's best pitching staff.

And somehow, they manage to stay in front of the Ranger.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-03-2003, 02:11 AM

Seattle didn't make any deadline moves, Pat staying Pat will really end up biting them in the arse. Their O is not that good, they needed to pick up another bat and mabye a 5th starter or pen guy since freddy garcia has gone awol.

Cardinals are in NL and so no problems for them Vs Mariners.

Chiwas · 08-03-2003, 11:02 AM

White Sox.

With the next-to-be Cy Young.

Nash13 · 08-03-2003, 12:47 PM

Chiwas, I know you don't mean Colon. He's good, but not better than Pedro Martinez.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-03-2003, 01:34 PM

Nash13, obviously mi amigo means Mr. All-star starter, AL leading ERA man
ESTEBAN LOAIZA!

White Sox preview
The Rich Harden road show goes for four wins in five tries on Sunday in Chicago, where Harden will look to continue the roll that he's been on since his first Major League start July 21 in Kansas City.

Harden has been spectacular in his first four outings, allowing just four earned runs in 27 innings of work. He's struck out 22.

With a victory over the White Sox, Harden would move to 4-0 and give Oakland the series in the rubber game and final matchup between Chicago and the A's this season.

Pitching matchup:
OAK: RHP Rich Harden

3-0, 1.33 in 2003
Has never faced Chicago

CWS: RHP Esteban Loaiza

15-4, 2.30 in 2003
1-0, 3.00 in 2003 vs. OAK
5-4, 3.81 lifetime vs. OAK
Player to watch: Based on previous numbers, Harden will have to be at the top of his game against Chicago. No Athletic is hitting better than .250 against Loaiza in his career.

Quotable: "I was wondering when they were going to bring him up there." -- A's reliever Chad Bradford on Carl Everett, who is 3-for-8 with three homers off the right-hander. Everett was called on to pinch-hit against Bradford on Saturday, ending the reliever’s evening.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-10-2003, 12:18 PM

Loaiza shall continue his cy dominance against the young stud.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-10-2003, 03:48 PM

He does it again, 8 innings, 1 er, another win.

Dirk41= konsesjonen · 08-10-2003, 03:59 PM

He also leads the AL in ERA and Quality Starts.
He is sick, 21 of 24 starts have been quality. Only 3 non-quality stars, i mean my god.

mavsfanforever · 08-16-2003, 10:06 AM

okay, did I just see the Rangers rip e.louiza.

Go Rangers.

Drbio · 08-16-2003, 05:25 PM

Yes, and the Rangers of all teams are the hottest team in baseball over the last 15 games.
