Title27GT

Lulz, isn't their highest Batting Average .240 owned by Tad Iguchi?
What a dissapointment
They were an all-around powerhouse in 2005, couldn't pitch for shit in 2006 and STILL won 90 games, and now they just can't pitch or hit for shit.

1. The highest is by Thome I think, with .275 (still bad though)
2. They're pitching wasn't that bad in 06...
3. Starting pitching is awesome, relief pitching sucks.
4. ura dumass

Starting pitching is awesome? yea, they have big name starters, but they have been a huge dissapointment.
Their ace Jose Contreras IS 5-12 WITH A 5.76 ERA
JOHN GARLAND IS 7-7 WITH A 4.15 ERA
JOHN DANKS IS 6-7 WITH A 4.88 ERA

ura dumbass.


Also, when Jim Thome leads the team in hitting, (he's notorious for striking out) you know you suck.

To embarrass you further, in 2006, Mark Buehrle was 12-13 with a 4.99 ERA.
Brandon McArthy was was 4-7 with a 4.68
Jenks was 3-4 with a 4.00
Sisco was 1-3 with a 7.10
Cotts was 1-2 with a 5.17

Jesus christ you're stupid.

Also, shall we compare their hitting stats with that of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays? I think we shall.

B.J. Upton is hitting .339. Funny, I always expected Jermaine Dye to hit higher than B.J. Upton, but alas, Dye is hitting .214.
That's right, the Devil Rays have TWELVE PLAYERS WHO ARE HITTING OVER .280.
The White Sox have one.

Have I made my point? Let's turn to the Royals, the THE SECOND WORST TEAM IN THE MLB.

The Royals have eleven players hitting over .280. The White Sox have one.

Pitching wise, the Royals have five regular pitchers with an ERA in the 2's.
Find me ONE REGULAR White Sox pitcher who has an ERA in the 2's.
Don't look in the bullpen, it's ugly.

K, I'm done.

contreas sucks nao. Garland is pretty good. 4.15 is a pretty good ERA. pitcher's records are basically measureing the offense.

Danks is a rookie. do you expect him to be awesome? stfu

Buehrle and vazquez are kicking ass

Kicking ass? No.
4.15 is a good ERA? No.
So you just reiterated the fact that the offense sucks

7-6 with a 3.23 and 8-5 with a 3.71 are not "kicking ass" unless you're in little league, which is the way the Sox have played this season.

I know the offense sucks. I implied that in one of my posts...I have n

4.15 is a decent ERA. That would be like giving up 3 runs a start. That's pretty damn good.

Also, Garland had one bad start that made it jump bt like .8. Without that, it would be like 3.5 now. Once he evens out, it will get more near that.

3.72
6.67
4.97
4.12
3.44

Do these numbers look familiar to you? I hope they do.

They're starting pitching is above average. It looks "awesome" because everything else sucks ass.

I have no idea why you're getting into a huge flame war over nothing.

All I'm saying is that the White Sox should not be 11 games under .500. Their team could have 60 wins with that kind of talent.

Exactly why everyone is so confused.

They should be contending.

They shouldn't just be contending. Honestly I expected them to DOMINATE. If you look at them on paper, they really are great.

Basically.

That's why baseball isn't all about stats.

Baseball sucks. Sports suck.

I just don't get why anyone would want to watch other people fucking play a sport.
