Wow. Reading this makes me depressed about how bad our team has drafted over the years. Are biggest steal was Matt Guerrier(10th round in 99). I don't remmember him being that good. Current Key players Fields, Getz, and Richard. Verdict is still out on all 3, but seems like Fields might be on his way out. Link http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writ...tml?eref=sihpT1

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 03:32 PM) Beckham or Nix would have had a better chance there than Wise....he's really, REALLY struggling. It's not struggling when you have been bad your entire career.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 4, 2009 -> 10:12 AM) OK, so lets get all of the Wise-cracks out of the way now... We should all listen to Ozzie. When Wise comes up, everyone in the stands should stand up and turn their backs to the field.

Along with this 12 game homestand, the Sox don't leave the Midwest till August 10 when the fly to Sea. Away games against Milw, the north side team, Cinncy, Clev, KC, Minny, and Det

QUOTE (fathom @ May 27, 2009 -> 04:19 PM) Not sure if this was accurate, but I heard Weaver's been tougher on the White Sox (1 ER in 4 career starts) than anyone in franchise history. In 4 games vs the Sox, he is 3-0 with a 0.34 era and 0.71 whip in 26 innings. Hopefully tonight will be the opposite where we hit a pitcher that has dominated us, unlike not hitting a pitcher which we raked against.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ May 21, 2009 -> 03:01 PM) Soxtalk needs a text messaging service.. I have to leave, but I need my updates!!! The Penguin told him.

And White Sox Nation rejoices!

On Mike and Mike this morning, Jason Stark was talking about the Mets looking at Nick Johnson from Washington. But the Mets don't want to go over the luxury tax before the trade deadline, so they probably will stay put for a while. If we did trade PK, the sox would need to eat much of his salary, which I don't see KW doing that.

Any news on Scotty Pods and how he is doing in the minors. He has to be a better option right?

This is a pretty cool slideshow of Sox players and uniform numbers. My favorite number is 23. There have been a few players that have wore 23, Dye being current. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/chi-s...53.photogallery

And what about the new hot dogs, anyone notice a difference?

Um.....I thnik that would Jerry Owens title

Yea, because the Sox always get who they want!

I totally agree. Its weird that there are some many free agents still available and spring training is around the corner. Looking at espn, there are over 100 free agents still out there. Heck you could form a competitive team C Varitek or Irod 1B Casey or Mientkiewicz 2B Hudson SS OCab 3B Crede or Wigginton LF Dunn CF Edmonds RF Abreu SP Sheets SP Garland SP Perez SP Pedro SP Freddy/Glavine RP Lyon RP Burgos CL Gagne/Izzy This team could win 82 games

Next Year's off-season!

From chicago.sports.com http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...1,2184268.story "Linebrink update Reliever Scott Linebrink made marginal progress throwing his fourth bullpen session but wasn't sure when he would throw a simulated game. "I'm going to continue to throw bullpen [sessions]," he said. "Hopefully, there will be a little more life each time." Linebrink, who won't throw Tuesday, has limited his repertoire to fastballs and a few changeups. "We prefer it be a little bit more drastic improvement than what we are seeing, but it may be one day it just decides to turn around for us," Linebrink said. Extra innings "

Its gotta be Greg Norton(Your the greatest!)

The Sox have hit Lee pretty good Lee is 4-5 with a 6.44 in 15 career starts Go Sox!

With the relationship the Sox and Hawks are trying to promote, it surprises me that the outdoor BlackHawk game will be at Wrigley.

Its about time the offense picked up one of our pitchers. Not lets score some runs for Danksy and start off the weekend with a win.

Never thought I would hear Uribe and "Way too Talented" in the same sentence

Wow. Have a little faith its only the 4th inning.

I have to say DJ's call of Dye's blast last night was pretty good. You could feel the enthusiasm in his voice.
