Contrary to yesterday's news:

Dye, Fields could miss opener in KC

Outfielder not ready to return; third baseman hit on wrist.

Quote:

ARLINGTON -- Don't expect Jermaine Dye back in the White Sox lineup for Monday's series opener at Kauffman Stadium.

And it sounds as if Dye could have some banged-up company on the bench. Third baseman Josh Fields, who has reached base in 20 of his first 23 games this season, was struck in the left wrist by a Matt Harrison pitch in the first inning of Sunday's 5-1 loss.

Jayson Nix will most likely start in place of Fields.

Dye's own words:

Quote:

"Right now, I can't grip a bat and I don't think I'm playing tomorrow, no matter what," said Dye, whose left hand still is noticeably swollen but not as bad as it was on Saturday night. "We'll still treat it and [White Sox athletic trainer] Hermie [Schneider] will ask me once I get into the stadium how it feels. If it feels good enough, I'll take some swings. If not, we'll keep treating it."

He could be out for the series.

I very, very much want to go tonight. Unfortunately, I have too much self control.

This season thats not the case but the division is still wide open and the Royals aren't the greatest hitting team, I also dont think the pitching will be as good as it has been, especially after Meche and Greinke

Dude, I've been a Royals fan my whole life. I know the history very well. I'm telling you that I think it's turning and I'm not going to spend the whole season waiting for the other shoe to drop. Hopes and dreams are believing in a team that has Luke Hudson as its ace. This team competes on paper with any team in the division and has so far shown itself to play very competitively in divisional games.

I plan on going to the game on Saturday but I don't have tickets yet. I was thinking of trying to buy them from someone in the parking lot. What section are you in?

We pulled Bloomquist? I'd rather him be in RF and have Guillen DH'ing instead of Jacobs.

Anyways... I haven't been more excited for a Royals game in a long time than I am for this one.

I question Callaspo at 7. Callaspo is a double machine. Why put him behind Butler and Jacobs, who have a .345 and .299 OBP respectively?

Howdy guys...let's leave no doubt about this one. Let's bury these losers with all the venom we can muster and make a statement to the rest of the league that we are for real.

Predictions on tonight's attendance? I'm calling 32,500 for a 8-1 win.

Screw you, Ozzie Guillen.
