He purposefully didn't let the word get out, until enough people noticed that he was hanging out with the Cubs. Then he couldn't avoid it anymore, and finally talked about it.

They also screwed OK by putting them in for a "home" game against Cuse to go to the final 4!

They need a leader. Unless they can pick #1 or #2 they need to put a package together for someone who has some guts and can play some defense. There is no reason to ever lose a game by 51 points!

7-1 Sox. PK goes yard. MB goes 7, Rick White gives up a run in two innings of mop up work.

As long as the bandwagon fans get out to Comiskey and spend LOTS of money so we can keep this thing going for years to come, I don' t mind them...

Nice touch

He has had major control issues. My guess is if he can conquor those then we will see him make the leap. If not, he is in trouble.

It sounds like there might not even be much of a market to trade down in now. The Texans and the Bengals are talking about trading down now. That makes it hard on the Bears to deal down.

I really think that KW wants to deal Josh to someone. There must not be any takers and Kenny would rather sit on him, instead of losing him for nothing.

Suggs pitiful workout really through a wrench into the Bears draft plans...

I will say this much after figuring out who our AAA pitcher were, I don't see how any of them couldn't start over the scrubs that are the DRays starting 5. As a matter of a fact I think they could break into the KC, Detroit, and Cleveland rotations as well.

The final four is complete. Syracuse faces Texas and Kansas plays Marquette. I had the first two in my brackets, did anyone else do better?

Adkins, I knew I was forgetting someone...

Now I got to thinking about who we have down there. Assuming that once Wright gets healthy, Stewart gets sent back down there, who is our rotation? Rauch Stewart Sanders Diaz? 5th spot?

Didn't Todd Ritchie do something like that as well last year? I think Todd Ritchie did something like that ALL YEAR last year...

So what do you guys think, could Tampa beat our AAA team in a 3 game series?

The more I look at it, I wonder if the Tampa Bay Devil Rays could beat our AAA team. I am pretty sure our AAA staff would have more talent, espesially if Josh Stewart was included in that mix. They have no offense. And they have 17 guys making the minimum as rookies or 2nd year players! But Detroit might be able to challenge them, and KC could be a couple of salary dumps away from being that bad also.

Exactly. What have we done since 2k? I think it says a lot about the team we have not that we are splitting the vote.

And that is too bad because Phil Rogers is a dumbass. Oh well...

It wouldn't bother me at all. That means we won at least 95 games or so, and out played both of the second place teams in the AL West and AL East. As long as the Twins didn't kill us head to head, I could handle the wild card!

Mine too. Now if Texas gets to the finals and loses I should win some money!

Despite the tons of noise to the contrary it seems that most of the experts are pretty evenly split on the AL Central. And that seems fair enough to me. Until we beat them they are the defending champs and all. Hopefully not for long though

Ah, now it all makes sense. Thanks for the welcome Mario!

If Garland has a breakout year, we win the division hands down. PERIOD

http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/spli...ts?statsId=6963 We hit Hernandez fairly well in the one start he made against us http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/spli...ts?statsId=6883 Affeldt pitched against us 3 times last year including one start, we hit him hard also. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/spli...ts?statsId=6884 Ascenso pitched against us 4 times last year, including 3 starts. He had the best era of the bunch against the Sox last year at 5.60! This bodes well for us, hopefully
