Saids the Frank Thomas fan...

I'd be interested in going if it didn't cost $500 for two people! For that much money there better be more than sleeping going on if you know what I mean...

The Pitts SUCKED big time. I am so glad that show is gone. I was really sad to see who's line get cancelled. Although the English version was much better. What was the Pitts? I never saw that show... A failed Sunday night Fox show. It sucked worse than Rick White out of the pen.

There was no way that ARod gets $252 mil on his own. There were no offers higher than 8 years $160 million. Boras had them bidding against themselves! That is a difference of almost $90 million! The NBA is a completely different monster. They have an individual salary cap. For someone who is going to make the max, there is no need for an agent. Baseball doesn't have such a structure. So your agent can make a big difference.

Juan Cruz just can't pitch out of the pen to save his life. He had great numbers last year as a starter, he was just victimized by no offense and bad luck. If someone puts him in their starting rotation, he will be good, IMO

I wonder if we can get a group discount? "oh you're the Sox fans, right this way"

I am going to with Magglio

I thought it was the Cubs that had been offering that deal? Meh, maybe I was wrong then.

Wow they wouldn't deal for Juan Cruz, but they want BY Kim? interesting. I guess that means they are going to annoint Kim as the closer.

So essentially he is worried about 5% of his salary??? So if he were to get a $10 mil deal for next year he would lose $500,000 to an agent, and that is why he is firing the best agent in the game? Pardon my French but what a f***ing idiot.

I think Padilla might have an OK 2nd half. How deep is your league?

Well that makes him instantly more attractive. Too bad we have no chance at landing him. I wonder why he fired Borass? I haven't heard of that one before.

I think Koch is turning it around. Plus the O's are infamous for 2nd half swoons.

Well I will say this, If Stein ever needs a quiet pushover manager to sit in the dugout and take orders, Jerry Manuel should get his resume in ASAP!

Is he looking bad? It seems like everytime BHam wins, Royce gets a save. Heck he has an era of around 0.40 with a WHIP around 1.

Give Frank a shot for a while at 1B, what't the worst that could happen? He doesn't hit in the clutch? Hell he hasn't done that all year anyway, and neither has Konerko. If Frank can do it, let him play first. At least one of the two would be hitting.

Why should you be excited? One game is just that, one game. We are 7 1/2 games back, when we start to cut into that, then maybe I'll get excited.
