Heck at the rate we are going we might not have the all-star game anymore!

Wow, this might be the worst auction ever.

Knock on wood, but do people realize that Kelly hasn't given up a run ALL YEAR, not in spring training or the regular season? You can't be much better than that!

The Sox dugout DID clear on this last incident. They were just much further away than the Royals were. But they did go out to TRY to help.

well at least no one voted for the damned Cubs!

Koch is doing the exact samething that Keith Foulke did. Some how he caught "big-gameitis". He can't close out the big games. Foulke was the sameway. Remember his adventures against teams like the Yankees, Mariners, and Twins? You can't crucify Koch for this without saying the exact samethings about Foulke.

I know the last guy to jump out onto the field and just run around got his ass kicked good by the security because he tried to struggle with them. I watched one of the biggest security guards put a kneedrop onto his head at one point to subdue him.

Please don't let that be the only reason you go to a game this year...don't be one of those fans. Show up to a thursday night game against Detroit this year when they really need some fans, not just on a tuesday or monday when the place will be filled anyway. I hate those god damn people. Not to sounds fairweather, but I already have a 7 game ticket plan lined up and bought. I have already went to one extra game, and because last night was supposed to be so nice, and it was half price I decided to go last minute. Turns out after all of the stupidity (both the team and non team) I should have just stayed home.

Oakland and Anaheim?

The White Sox weren't happy about getting swept in their first series of the season in Kansas City, but they'll get a quick chance for revenge this week at U.S. Cellular Field. The Sox will send ace Mark Buehrle to the mound Tuesday in an attempt to get them on the right track against the division-leading Royals. No doubt the Royals will start catcher Brent Mayne, who is 3-for-5 lifetime against Buehrle, and third baseman Joe Randa, who is 10-for-30 lifetime against Buehrle. The White Sox are hoping to be able to drive in some of the runners they get on base after leaving 31 stranded in a three-game series in Detroit. Pitching matchup: CHW: LHP Mark Buehrle 2-1, 1.23 in 2003 19-12, 3.58 in 2002 6-3, 2.91 lifetime vs. KAN KC: RHP Miguel Asencio 1-0, 3.60 in 2003 4-7, 5.11 in 2002 1-2, 5.96 lifetime vs. CHW Players to watch: Mark Buehrle pitched well in the opener in Kansas City but only got a loss to show for it. He will look to reverse that decision at home against the Royals, who finally lost Sunday against Cleveland. Brandon Berger, one of the Royals' outfielders, is 6-for-18 against Buehrle, with four of those six hits being home runs. Quotable: "I would say if it was one guy (stranding runners), but it looks like we're doing a team effort on that," White Sox manager Jerry Manuel said after his team stranded 31 in the three-game series in Detroit. "We're really working together on that one. We came together on one thing: 'If you leave him over there, I'll leave him over there.' I think that will improve."

I think that might be the finally determining factor to get me out to the game tonight. I wanted to go this weekend but the weather looks so hit or miss, that I can hardly pass up the awesome weather that we are looking at.

The Sox did hit him pretty decently last time around though. He pitched 5 innings giving up 4 runs on 5 hits and 3 walks with 3k's

After reading and digesting the 25 pages of this, this really feels like the type of circumstancial evidence that most of the anti-war people were so disturbed that they felt the Bush goverment used to justify a war in Iraq. Just like the biggest arguement against Iraq, at best, there is no one big smoking gun here. It seems to me that there are many times where statements are made as facts without any real source or link being connected to them. I saw spots where newspapers were quoted, yet there were no links to them. People made supposedly public statements, yet their were no links provided to substansiate them. As I posted earlier, I know for a fact that the stock arguement is a stretch at best, and it makes me wonder if other things the author gives as source based facts are being stretched to make this theory more plausible. I'd be interested to see more physical support of the authors "facts".

Deal our best minor league prospect? Good idea. Lay off the Mountain Dew..... it obviously causes you to utter complete nonsense. Borchard, once he settles down into his role when he's called up, will be everything advertised and..... IMHO..... then some. Borchard vs Pitcher. K...K...K...unless he listens to the coaches. Borchard isn't of the Carlos Lee mold. He has shown that he has a relentless work ethic, and is extremely smart. You don't spend 3 years at Stanford, about to become the starting QB if you aren't both smart and a hard worker. Joe will be fine. As a matter of a fact, once again, I hope they follow the Joe Crede trail and leave Borchard down there, until it is impossible to keep him in AAA.

I am going to say 3 only. Maggs, MB, and Colon.

I think after openning day all they do is give the starting line ups. I know they don't run out onto the field individually at all. All they would do is run out there to take their positions.

After experiencing shoulder soreness during a simulated game in extended spring training, left-hander Mike Sirotka was brought in Monday to get checked out by team physician Michael Schafer. Sirotka was diagnosed with "shoulder inflammation" and will be shut down for at least 10 days. Sirotka has undergone two operations since he last pitched during the 2000 season.

Isn't he a bullpen coach now? But yes it is the right thing to do.

http://www.msnbc.com/news/900348.asp?0cv=CB10 Anybody with any Californina knowledge... can they tell me how far apart it is from where the bodies were found, and where the Peterson's home is?

D'Angelo has really impressed me so far. He has done everything that has been asked of him. He has taken pitches and hit the ball hard consistantly. He has done an adaquate job in the field as well. But that being said, after hearing stories about his attitude, I am curious how he will handle some adversity.

He made a big error last night that led to two unearned runs. Turns out he has already made 2 errors in his 3 starts this year. I wonder if this has always been a problem for him?

Right now I am in the big time Borchard camp. I see the flashes of potential and raw ablitity, plus the fact that these are the first couple of years in his life that he has been totally dedicated to just baseball, and that says to me, when he breaks out, it will be in a big way. I have also noticed that he is a bigtime student of the game. I saw clinic that he put on at Soxfest and his was BY FAR the best one of all of them. He had so much knowledge of the baseball swing and technique, I was amazed. He knew all of the Charlie Lau and Walt Hriniak techniques and often quoted from each of them. Joe is a smart smart kid.

Well, if cwsox isn't enjoying this at least as much as you are, know that I am probably enjoying it even more!!! Oh, and the Blackhawks helped put Detroit in this predicament by beating them in the final game of the season!!! If the Wings won the game, they would've been playing Edmonton, a team they match up with much better. But, since they lost to the Blackhawks, they had to play Anaheim in the first round. Hurts so good!!! f*** the Dead Things As least the Blackhawks did SOMETHING right this year.

The immediate killer for the Illini is that if Self leaves Villenueva made it pretty clear that he won't be going there. Most likely he will make himself eligible for the NBA draft.

This statement is at best stretching the truth. I worked on the floor of the Chicago Board Options Exchange at this time. I worked right across from the UAL pit. The suspicious trades that took place happened ON Friday Sept the 7th, not before. What happened was massive selling of Call Options in amounts that we out of line. There was no suspicious spike in volume UNTIL that day, not before.
