Don't know what your talking about. Even when the Cubs sucked in recent memory,it seemed the SP was pretty decent.

Report that Pedro was watching him and said on Twitter that he is flying open on his delivery. Reporter told him and Shields said something like. "I'm not on Twitter. Maybe I'll call him".

The advertisers on that billboard behind home plate for the Indian's half of the inning are really getting their money's worth tonight...

The way this is going, some Cleveland batters could go 7 for 9 tonight at the plate...

This is reminiscent of the night the Giants sacked Cutler 15 times in a half. Complete hopelessness.

Why are they even swinging? Purke has only thrown 2 actual strikes since being brought in.

Purke should be DFA'D in the middle of the inning just for laughs.

Both Hahn and Williams should be fired before the game ends. They cost Reinsdorf what, $27M, for a guy who can't do better than their #4 starter at Charlotte.

Acquiring a once SOLID player past his prime is a Kenny move.

Hahn should quit.

But they're not even trying to be awful in an effort to horde higher draft picks. This is them trying to field a contender. They traded away assets to be this team. Think about that.

This has to be somewhat historic...worst three starts after being traded to a new team.

The funny part is after reading this thread,I turned the game on just in time to catch Hawk bitching about the strike zone when they had the bags jammed and their all-star 3rd baseman up. (He struck out) :lol:

They have some damn valuable assets if they had the stones to trade them and the ability to evaluate talent.

He's either (in no order) completely washed up, injured, or has a mechanical issue. It could be a combination of these to varying degrees as well, but the White Sox have another John Danks on their roster for another 2 years after this. Who pays for this if this continues much longer? How much longer can they continue to start him?

Skip his turn in the rotation. You have to allow him to figure it out.

You have to start owning up to when you're wrong.

I wasn't wrong. I said going to the AL may not be good.
