Because they're still our two biggest hitters.
Slumps come and go, but when we’re facing a must-score situation you want Lee or Rami up there.

Let's not unwind just because Lily has thrown HR balls and Lee can't seem to hit anymore.
This is baseball. The game of averages, of statistics. We’ve got a good team, and with Hendry on the market for a pitcher, there’s going to be some changes! :-)
BTW, Marquis was good last start! I keep telling myself that :-)

AJ's turning into the Carlos Lee during his Sox days
and FWIW I did not like that bat flip after his HR. If the situation allows (i.e. empty face) I say we hit him or give him some sweet chin music

I have a serious question: Do White Sox fans REALLY like their broadcasting team?
I can’t judge for them, but Hawk et al. seem rather pathetic announcers. No baseball smarts, silly comments, etc. I wish I knew a Sox fan well enough to ask him/her! :-)

Good a time as any.
I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling, so why don't we just ignore each other til we go away.

Beat him by mere millimeters. If Ronny had stayed on his feet he'd probably be safe. I don't get why people try to slide. IT SLOWS YOU DOWN!

Swisher fields a grounder, flips it to Danks who beat a head-first diving Cedeno to the bag, rules the umpire.
Sinatro immediately arguing, now Lou is out.

ARGHHH!
I feel like if I was sitting on my lucky armrest I could help the team!
I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling, so why don't we just ignore each other til we go away.

You can use that

Not always lucky, but if I sit just right...
