It was weird, I forgot all about Howry until watching that Sox-Cubs game on Classic yesterday. And today he's getting signed to play in the majors again. Good stuff.

I missed the game because of work, and this is all I was thinking about. "Ah, the game's just about to start." "I wonder if we're winning." "I hope Buerhle can shut down the Twins." "I hope I come home to a White Sox winner thread!" And that I did!!! Way to go Chicago White Sox!!!!

That's great that he stated he would rather sign an extension. My opinion on this trade keeps getting better and better, and the thought that we CAN sign him to an extension is excellent.

I'll be interested to see what the East coast Sports Programming Network says is number 1 on the list. You're able to rank your top 5 favorites on the ESPN front page. Hoosiers is #1 in the sports nation poll.

64.....I'm not getting any better at this lol.....

I'm quite content with that list. I'm looking forward to Schoenweis' return. I feel he'll come back off the DL pitching the way he started the season. I also agree that Jackson will be gone once Scho's back.

I'm excited, but I'm trying to contain it though. You should too, just in case things don't go as you plan. I'm as big as optimist as there is, but the Twins, though they never have had the big names in the league, ALWAYS, ALWAYS find a way to beat us and win the division. Let things happen on the field; this race is going to go very late into the season.

Very true Man of Steel, this division has become our's to lose in the past couple weeks.

I was told that deal could happen before the Pads leave Arizona, by a good Pads fan. Ala Billy Koch to Florida....

Happy B-Day!

Ugh...Thanks to work, I won't be able to catch any of these Minnesota games. I was really interested into hearing what Hawk and DJ were going to say about the deal that just went down. Well hopefully the Sox can build on this momentum, and win the series. Go Sox!

That was a great article. It really shows what can happen...good or bad. It's an interesting read, and it really makes you realize some things. This team has had the same solid core for a few years now, and it's been successful. However, it's not the success that gets you anywhere. I'm just excited to see how this pans out.

That's greatly put it into perspective. I was iffy on it yesterday, but as the hours went on, the more I end up liking this trade. This trade was necessary for the success of the ballclub. We needed a SP, and KW got the best available.

You did a nice job with that one MSF.

I don't know who's broadcasting the game, but I like them! They just mentioned the trade for Garcia, and the guy said he "understood this trade will be good for Seattle down the line, but the White Sox have just won the AL Central with this trade."

I think he'll end up with an even 10 wins in the Chisox uniform the remainder of the season.

It's just typical. Cub fans always claim the Sox series means absolutely nothing, but I only hear them say this recently, since we're always winning the crosstown series. I wonder what these same people would say if the Cubs ever win the season crosstown series..... But anyways....I enjoy being 1 up, and them being 5 back. Wasn't it this same way last year? The Cubs were in 1st place before we met them, and they ended the crosstown games in 3rd place.

I'm hoping we can Garcia for cheaper, but yeah, I only look into this deal if we know we're able to keep Garcia. Jones' kind of scares me; I haven't heard great things lately. All I hear that he's on the decline. However, I like the point JReed brought up. Greg Walker could probably help him get back on track.

I'm quite surprised that yesterday wasn't the biggest, especially with there being an increase in members. It was close though, but yesterday had so much going for it. The hype before the rubber match of the crosstown series, the victory in the first stint of the crosstown series, trade rumors, and THE trade.

Haha the vintage "HE'S GONE!!" from Hawk versus the present-day "HE GAWN!"

Haha that was awesome. DJ has changed too; he's so quiet right in this game.

Ha the park's gotten rid of A LOT of blue in the past 4 years.

Nice....Thanks for informing us Cali. I'll be checking it out.

I understand your thinking Soxfan1, but though the Royals aren't part of the division race, it's still vital that we beat them whenever we face them. And since we see KC 13 more times (7 of the last 10 games of the season), I would say it's important that we play well against KC.

Gotta love Conan!
