My concern for Rizzo is that they bring him up and plug him into the 3 hole like they did LaHair. With no legitimate threats behind him pitchers will throw down and away, just like they do for LaHair and this kid will be batting .160 in August. If they move LaHair to four and him to five, or visa versa, then the kid will have a chance.

Bill, See what you mean with LaHair 3-17 in the last 7 days and hitless in 6 of his last 10 games. He hit .393 in April, .253 in May and .226 in June. LaHair has hit only 3 HR’s since May 15 and only one since June 7, so that confirms that he is being pitched around.

Gordon Beckham is hitting .249 now and is hitting .342 in his last ten games. I just noticed he only played 59 games in the minors, so he has been learning in the big show. All his percentage numbers have improved from one month to the next this season. He hit .153 in April, hit .261 in May and .299 in June.

I think Robin Ventura moving up Beckham in the batting order, played a part in his resurgence this season.

So much for Beckham hitting near the top of the lineup:

Nobody to protect Beckham now. Hope he still keeps hittting anyway.

Slowest 2-3-4 hitters in baseball?

JFC Rizzo will be just fine with the Cnb$.

After all, the so called pressure had no effect on Corey Patterson or Felix Pie right?

Corey and Felix weren’t on the PEDS regimen that Rudy has had Rizzo on since spring training he’ll be fine!

Pierzynski is not exactly a speed demon with 13 stolen bases in 1,557 games.

Beckham has 19 in 3 1/2 seasons.

Viciedo has 8 stolen bases in 3 1/2 seasons.

Add Dunn, Konerko and Youkilis and you have six very slow regulars on the White Sox.

Alex Rios is by far the best base stealer on the Sox with Alejandro de Aza and Alexei Ramirez both having some speed.

how much would you pay to fuck that girl on the front?
now if you said nothing like Big Tits will say what if it only costs say a dollar menu item at McDicks....

Guess you missed the new McD’s commercials if you buy a girl a 20 piece McNugget you get McPussy…

Sadly it’s not on the dollar menu it’s 4.99. I think it beats street prices for a hooker but you don’t get the hooker ambiance.

That kind of depends on whether you take the McD’s back to the fleabag motel room to eat.
