That said, it's hard to believe that Dunn is still sucking, into July.

Dunn OPSed .498 in June.

Wow.

That's on-base percentage PLUS slugging percentage.

Just for comparison, Jose Bautista's OBP for the season is .470.

Guess Konerko's not a Paul Star.  It's a huge joke this season.

He has the unfortunate situation of playing the same position as Adrian Gonzalez who's having a monster season of his own, and also has the bigger name recognition being in Boston now. We all know Paulie's one of the top players in baseball so far this year but if he doesn't play in the AS game at least he gets a couple days to rest.

Either way it's a win-win, imo (and probably in Paul's opinion too)!

yep, certainly won't hurt to get him the rest.  Humber should be there too.  Price is a joke

They still have an All-Sra Game?  Thought it was cancelled in the early 90s due to lack of interest.

Quentin is the Sox' All Star.  I just read some stats on Quentin and didn't realize just how bad he's been lately. Hasn't homered in 19 games now and has only 4 rbi's since June 8th. Humber deserved it far more, but does any non-Sox (and now non-Cub) fan even know he exists?

That's a nice rant, and spoken like an actual fan of the team vs. being just an attention-grab.

I wish I hadn't read this:

Rios is owed $50 million this season, next season, season after that, and after that through a $1 million buyout in 2015. Cleveland’s opening day payroll was $49.4 million.

You know your team sucks when there is more banter on the fan boards on on their off-days than on game days.

Yesterday was not a good day for the KW regime.

I would argue the opposite.  Anything that keeps Tony Pena out of the Sox bullpen is a good thing.

"The Yankees would pay big for A's lefty Gio Gonzalez, tweets Sherman, but Oakland still refuses to discuss the southpaw.  The 25-year-old ranks eighth in the American League with 124 strikeouts and seventh with a 2.67 ERA, and is not arbitration-eligible until after this season."

This is getting stupid....

@CSNChi_Beatnik
Brett Ballantini

Safe to say a fair # of #WhiteSox are enraged by Oney's latest tweets on Mark Teahen + wife. One term used was "smash his face in"


I guess Teahen responded (indirectly) to Oney with:

Hope my career is good enough 2 1day raise a kid 2lazy & dumb 2have a real job so I can pay his bills & he can think he's successful #Goals

Oney Guillen was born on first and advanced to second on a passed ball and then sacrificed over to third, and he thought he hit a triple.

More interesting than the dead-ass team.

I went to Oney's Twitter to see what he said about teahen, but it was an endless mire of nonsense.  That kid needs to get a life.

Oh, Oney...  That explains everything.

When I first read the thread I was thinking it said Olney, as in Buster Olney.   I was trying to figure out why in the world he would be tweeting about Mark Teahen's wife.

...now THAT would've been interesting.  Like in an Eric Lindros - Rod Brind'Amour sort of way.

“Let me explain to the idiots out there, the geniuses,’’ Guillen said. “They say I don’t bench Rios, but the only player I benched because he didn’t hustle, it was Rios, for two days, OK?  Tell these people out there, they think they know baseball more than I do, then send me the lineup that was better without Rios in [it]. Is Rios not playing well? Of course he’s not. He’s brutal everywhere.’’


Yes, Ozzie benched Rios for 2 whole days. What more do you people want from him? Correction: what more do you idiots want?

Stay classy, Oz.

All of them.  KW, Ozzie, Walker.  Gone.  Keep Coop.

And JR needs to pass the chairmanship to someone else.  The ride that has carried over from 2005 is done.
