QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jun 3, 2006 -> 11:16 AM) I don't take hope in this. At the end of April, they had Schilling over Contreras? At this point, with the win difference, it's reasonable to conclude that, but at the end of April?! I do like the Thome trend, and that would be awesome to have another MVP on the Southside. As far as AL Rookie of the Year, it'd be a travesty if Papelbon didn't get it. That kid is a beast. I've got a friend who asks me to watch Red Sox games with her when they're on nationally, and I always get a kick out of watching Jonathan pitch. Dude, it's a fan poll. It doesn't make a difference what fans think in terms of the end of the season awards; it's voted on by writers. And just as you reasoned with Schilling over Count in April?!, Papelbon will have to keep up a similar pace through out Junel?!, Julyl?!, August?!, and September?!

***6/3/2006 Official Game Thread***

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 3, 2006 -> 11:00 AM) I'll be stunned if he plays this wknd. http://whitesox.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/ar...t=.jsp&c_id=cws -
QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 3, 2006 -> 11:00 AM) It was nice to see him utilize his fastball more. I think it's fair to say he won't match his numbers from last season, but he's going to be a solid 4/5 starter. To be honest, I have more confidence in him than I do Garcia. Same here. And when we finally get BMac his spot in the rotation, I'd rather have Garland stick around over Freddy. I just feel that we have every reason to believe Freddy's peaking or about to peak, especially with his new slower velocity. I do feel Garland is good enough to be no worse than an above-average/solid 4-5 for us, and I have no problem with that.

I just can't buy that the Sox are not as good as perceived. You can't get lucky 110 times in one year. And then add players with historically better numbers to that roster and expect to get worse. We're just underperforming at a bad time.
-
I keep seeing improvement in his starts, and it's a shame that the Sox had to waste a QS by Garland.

QUOTE(T R U @ Jun 3, 2006 -> 02:35 AM) Thatd be raw if he got 1500 and 1500 at the same time He got hit #2000 at the same time he got HR #400.
-
Gage and Heads are gone for the weekend. So there's the reason for the lack of reports on our awful farm system.
-
Don't worry about Frank. Even if he was here, we'd still have problems with our bullpen, management of CF, and SS. Back on topic.

2006 White Sox Catch-All Thread

And that it will. -
And a quality start by JG will be overlooked because of the failure to execute elsewhere on the team.

In house options to replace BA...

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 11:32 PM) Yep...we need a brand new center fielder. Who? I can't stand that people say that, yet they never bring a name, a realistic name to the table. -
Heads your game record's getting lame.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 11:27 PM) Anderson's defense has taken on a Chuck Norris like mythology on this site. When you compare it to anyone else's on the team....f*** yeah it is.
-
QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 11:24 PM) Yes, but when you have a man on in a tie game in the 8th, every manager in baseball is going to make the switch for more offense. And what a horrible move that was. You need BA's defense, especially late in games.
-
QUOTE(greg775 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 11:24 PM) I say we overpay and reacquire Rowand. 2 prospects and McCarthy. And I and the rest of the board better say f*** no.
-
QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 11:22 PM) And that's where the problem is. No one has confidence in Anderson at the plate, and how can you blame them? And this team's problem is NOT offense. You know that. Defense is much more important. BA's helping this team a hell of a lot more with his defense than he is hurting it with his bat.
-
QUOTE(greg775 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 11:20 PM) Let's face it. We miss Rowand even though we got the better player in the deal. No. Ozzie should have kept his starter, the better CFer in the f***ing game.

QUOTE(Jake @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 11:15 PM) I really hope you're kidding. Do you think he was happy with his performance with the angry smiley? Sometimes green isn't needed for sarcasm.

Win this Brandon.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 11:10 PM) Hawk is absolutely crazy. I am sold. "PODS! Come awn! Yes!" We get that everything Hawk says is funny to you now.

QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 11:08 PM) thats fine with me Ehh...I want the win, but I wish the HR wasn't our only option. I just don't expect us to string a bunch of hits together at once against their pen. I'd love for them to prove me wrong though. Hopefully our pen can hold tight until something happens.
-
It's going to take a HR to win this game with Texas' bullpen. I just hope we don't have to overuse our lovely pen tonight.
