QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 28, 2007 -> 09:57 PM) Haeger's looked horrible so far this year. I'd have no problem giving him up. If we trade Anderson though, KW will f***ed up the offseason two seasons ago. I still think Haeger is going to be very successful.

QUOTE(caulfield12 @ Apr 28, 2007 -> 09:50 PM) Charles Haeger and Anderson for Ryan Church Not Haeger. Someone else and Anderson for Church--yes.

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Apr 28, 2007 -> 09:51 PM) Why make all these moves? Thome is going to be out maybe 15 games more or less. It's not the end of the world and no need to shuffle an entire roster. Settle down folks! The Sox need a competent backup for the oft-injured Thome even when he gets back. They've been a bat short all along anyway.

QUOTE(Mr. Showtime @ Apr 28, 2007 -> 09:26 PM) *Waiting for the first Rowand post* I hope KW gets Rowand.

QUOTE(Frank the Tank 35 @ Apr 28, 2007 -> 01:19 AM) Geoff Jenkins/ Kevin Mench Pat Burrell?

For right now, go with Pablo Ozuna as the full time DH and let Andy Gonzalez take Pablo's spot on the bench. If a competent major league bat becomes available for a reasonable price, grab him.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 27, 2007 -> 07:36 PM) Here's hoping Williams doesn't do anything too drastic. Thome is hurt quite often because of his violent swing. Last year it was his hand/wrist. This year it's his side. In the past it has been his back. He's also had hamstring problems. KW would do well to get another quality bat in here to back up Thome and also play some outfield.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 27, 2007 -> 02:02 PM) It would be impossible to fully replace Thome's offensive production but something would need to be done. At this point in the season it's not widely known who is available exactly but I'm sure if Thome did hit the DL we'd hear some names thrown out there in the press. Raul Ibanez?

Bring back Rowand.

How fast can KW get Aaron Rowand back here?

You guys are bad.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 25, 2007 -> 09:21 PM) Bonds homered Who cares?

Here come the White Sox!!!!!

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Apr 25, 2007 -> 09:18 PM) Nice pitch Boooooone. Yes it was.

Coming back to win this game would be tremendous.

QUOTE(knightni @ Apr 25, 2007 -> 09:11 PM) Question. Can you put Anderson in RF, then pinch hit Thome for Danks, then replace Danks with a RP after the at-bat? Yes.

There was no good reason either Konerko or Ozuna was not the DH tonight instead of Anderson. Now we have two infielders playing outfield. Ozzie put the team in a bad spot tonight, and KW should call him on it.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 25, 2007 -> 09:04 PM) Looks like Mackowiak hyperextended his knee. Looked to me like he rolled his ankle.

Ozzie should have to answer to KW after this game tonight for his misuse of available personnel.

We should tie it up this inning.

QUOTE(caulfield12 @ Apr 25, 2007 -> 08:24 PM) "Right now, I think Erstad is playing the best center field in the league," Guillen said. "If you look at the games, the balls in the gap he chases, he has been great. Our defense is better with him playing center field right now. In right field, I want [Rob] Mackowiak to stay there. If I lose Mackowiak, I can't switch one of those guys during the game. It's easy for me to make a change when Mackowiak's on the field But why not BA in LF and Ozuna at DH?

QUOTE(Damen @ Apr 25, 2007 -> 02:26 PM) Wow. So here's an obvious question...why not put Anderson in the field? If we're stuck into having Ozuna, Anderson, Erstad, and Mack all starting, why don't we DH Ozuna, since he's by far the biggest liability in the OF. Anderson in Center, Erstad in Left, Mack in Right? What's the problem with that? It makes too much sense? Because, unfortunately, Ozzie makes the f***ing lineups.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 25, 2007 -> 12:20 AM) Perfect inning...book it. Another good call!

Let's close this out with no drama and get out of town. A nice boring bottom of the ninth PLEASE!

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Apr 25, 2007 -> 12:14 AM) Pablo Ozuna our protection for our number 4 hitter. Mr. Clutch.
