Taking Floyd and Gio out of the equation, there are $9M reasons why this trade was productive.

Helped the Sox gain a game yesterday (if it matters). Great flyer pick-up right there. Think Tampa would rather have him than Dukes?

AJ that first pitch is really good to you keep hacking away douchebag.

Without shadows this team sucks. With shadows this team will be embarassing as hell.

I think they are going to score a couple here. Maybe not.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jun 9, 2007 -> 03:39 PM) My cousin in St. Louis says the Cards maybe down on Reyes. Wonder if Buehrle would bring him in a deal. Reyes not really showing much this year.

QUOTE(Hideaway Lights @ Jun 9, 2007 -> 03:36 PM) guys, don't fret: winning would be the worst thing for this team right now. Just a few more losses and we can clean house. There is nobody to trade this year that makes us better next year.

sad

Well that first pitch looks real good. That was stupid base runnign there. What the f*** is the point with two outs.

If Mack gets ahead double steal.....big if

To Soxtalk that said he blew, I am really starting to like Terraro as a 4th OF.

Nice pitch, what the f*** was Berkman looking for?

Watching hitters work the count and make the pitcher throw strikes is truly killing me as I watch the stupidity of White Sox hitters fail to realize this aspect of the game and a question I would like to ask. The strike sucks today and the White Sox refuse to use this to their advantage. Garland running out of gas.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 9, 2007 -> 03:15 PM) Another magical turn by our pathetic double play tandem. I don't want to see either of those guys back next year. What happened I went to let the dog out?

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 9, 2007 -> 03:10 PM) We're getting shut down by someone with an 85 mph fastball. If this follows the typical Sox game, we'll go down by about 3 or 4 soon as the opposition will get 3 hits in about a span of a minute. You are 100% correct.

QUOTE(briguy27 @ Jun 9, 2007 -> 03:10 PM) no im not, its just this team continues to break my heart, game in, game out. even though paulie had a nice rip there, the first pitch was good for a 400 foot bomb. since he hit the grand slam in game 2 of the WS, he hasnt learned his lesson that the first pitch is the best pitch u will probably see in the whole at bat Sorry but I have to disagree with you. The pitcher will let you know what the best pitch to hit is. The worse the pitcher the earlier in the count to swing. The inability of this team to work a count and recognize the strike zone is its downfall. Swinging on the first pitch in my opion is the worst thing a hitter can do.

AJ made him work. How f***ing hard is it to take a pitch when you are hitting .250???????

I like Terrero, sorry, I just do.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 9, 2007 -> 02:54 PM) He said they should bring him back....not exactly a deep thought. What JR and KW need to do at the end of this month is go to him with their final offer. If he laughs it off, then you trade him. I think they need to do this for PR and fringe season ticket holders like myself that are wondering if this franchise is worth investing in.

Slow fat white guy almost embarasses the Sox there.

I think Lee is homering here.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 9, 2007 -> 02:43 PM) I hate to break it to you, but both Buehrle and Garland will likely not be with the White Sox come 2009. Hence my fear that we had our shot at being a legitmate franchise and will not turn out to be. Teams are not going to give up big prospects unless they sign him long-term and that is my fear. I see a couple of Jon Adkins returns. Williams has a tendency to make some really bad trades or not get enough in return for his players. Where does the $20M go if the three free agents leave? Crede also could be signed for a cut althoguh I doubt it. Great inning there I see another shutout.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 9, 2007 -> 02:34 PM) The good news is that Buster Olney said today that Buehrle might go on the market soon, and he'll be the best player available. I am sorry but this is a guy you try and keep. I do not want AAA players. He makes every start and that is very rare. You build a team around him and Garland if you are a serious franchise.

Well there's the ballgame courtesy of Eric f***ing Munson.

This ump is not calling a strike at the belt. Then Mackowiak swings at two pitches there he should have been 3-1. Do these guys not watch what is happening out there? This is what Walker needs to preach. The only problem with Iguchi was he was loafing and therefore should have stayed. I bet we do not hit more than three balls to the outfield.
