Frank takes the cookie. 2-1

I was thinking Viz or Shingo because of Ozzie's wanting to get them to get their confidence back in tight situations and because Hermy has pitched alot this week.

Inning over. And to the 11th we go. This means that Viz or Shingo's pitching. Oh boy.

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Jun 5, 2005 -> 04:30 PM) Better question, why in God's name would the Sox want Griffey? Better than Kong, don't you think?

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jun 5, 2005 -> 04:30 PM) why in gods name would the reds take konerko? So many OFers, that's why. If that wasn't a problem, would you do it?

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Jun 5, 2005 -> 04:29 PM) No one is going to take Konerko. Who would? I love the guy, but let's face it, he's not lighting the world up in a contract year. If not now, when? I really think the Sox have to put up with him until the end of this year. He'll have a good day here and there, but I think that is the max the Sox are going to get out of him. Well teams were willing to take Delgado last year with his crappy contract year(Sox at least did).

QUOTE(kman @ Jun 5, 2005 -> 04:28 PM) he is also batting .220 this season too slow, if we could get a 1b with a great contact bat with decent power i'd be all opver the trade. I still propose trading him for Griffey and moving Dye to 1B and when Griffey gets his rest, put Everett in there. And you probably could play righty-lefty more with Gload and Dye at first. Pods steals 3rd.

QUOTE(kman @ Jun 5, 2005 -> 04:22 PM) screw pauly, lets trade him What are you talking about? He's our RBI leader. You can't replace a leader like him. BTW, I agree with him. He's too 1-dimensional IMO. And I've only seen him get 1 hit when people do that stupid Paulie chant.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jun 5, 2005 -> 04:18 PM) I don't know whoever calls the pitches for Marte -- sometimes it looks like Marte just throws whatever he feels like throwing -- but whoever called for a high fastball that isn't above Hafner's head in that situation deserves to be slapped. Yeah, I'll blame this on Widger as well. You can't call for a fastball against the guy. He equally gets it. Damaso just missed his spot too. I'd say it's both guys fault(Damaso for not hitting his spot and not waving off Widger and Widger calling for a FB). BTW, REALLY NICE HR FOR FRANK. They should be chanting Big Hurt, not Paulie!

This game's over.

Error by Rowand. It looked like he was hopping around for nothing.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jun 5, 2005 -> 01:49 AM) You got $50 million to give JR for 100 days of service a year from Mr. Griffey Jr.? I could rob a bank. Anyway, if it was Pk for Griffey wouldn't you do it(don't think about the money right now)? I certainly would. Griffey's stats aren't unimpressive. They're pretty decent and he'd automatically become one of the better hitters on our club. He's batting .265 with 8 HR's and 36RBI's. He has been batting .283 the past 30 days. Pk is batting .230 with 14 HR's and 38RBI's. He's batting .275 the past 30 days. I would do it if you could move Dye to first. I already know Jabroni's and a couple of other's thoughts, but I want to hear yours. So Jabroni, no response please.

Maybe the fact that they are playing in front of fans is giving off energy.

Why shouldn't we be playing Colorado? I don't see why so many people are opposed to playing interleague. Especially with all of the AL Central(minus the Twins) being crappy you at least get to see some better baseball. It's no worse than regular play honestly. I can't honestly see the difference or the bad part of interleague play.

Yeah, but if either are dealt, I have a feeling it wouldn't be for a Casey Kotchman because he wouldn't be able to help us much this year unless we bench PK which this team won't. It'll just give us another Everett/Frank situation at 1B instead of DH. If KW makes a move, it'll be to make this starting lineup complete for this year for a strong postseason run. I think the Sox will only trade Frank over Everett if they are getting something significantly better than they will get for Everett at the positions they're looking for. Say Everett would net a Vinny Castilla and Thomas would net an Eric Chavez(hypothetically speaking), KW will go with the name player and get Eric Chavez, but if the package they would get for Frank is just slightly better than they would get for Everett, we'll end up trading Everett.

Let's trade for Ken Griffey Jr. Put Dye at first, get rid of Konerko and we have a set OF and 1B. Dye has actually been looking like the Dye we thought we were getting except with that knee, he can't get to that many balls. Also, when KGJ goes down, you have Everett there to play for him so it all fits well.

Wow, this was just a horrible article. I'm losing the respect I've slowly gained for Rick Morrisey.

Best thing is, EA Sports got the ESPN licensing, so they'll have the ESPN presentation like in the 2K games. So ESPN Presentation with EA Gameplay. Can't get no better than that.

Wouldn't suprise me if they lose tommorow, again.

Just win Yankees. OMG, I'm rooting for the Skank-ees. Never thought I would be.

I would say it is more the hitters underachieving on that team. But they've been good the past few games. That would be awesome if the White Sox were to pick him up and drop Walker.

QUOTE(trexer @ Jun 4, 2005 -> 09:02 PM) Trade for Randa instead. He's a much better 3B than either Crede or Chavez. Randa>Chavez? Wow.

I wonder if Jeff Brantley or someone else called out Ozzie for this, how many would come to his defense, even though most people feel Willie should be up here and not Timo(and I'm a Timo fan).

I'm happy Crede got another HR today. *Claps*. Hopefully we could get some more clutch hits from him.

Willie is one of our best hitters(I know I'm shocked too) this season and he's being demoted. Wow, Ozzie = not so smart. Again, he gives me more fire for my theory on him making a better 3b coach or bench coach than manager.
