  2. QUOTE(JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Aug 17, 2006 -> 01:27 PM) this game has started very similar to marks last outing against the royals in KC and in the end if he turns that kind of performance out again today the sox win this game as i said this game is all too similar, mark leaves with a 4-2 lead sox blow the lead win it 5-4 in extras, lets hope the pen doesnt blow it again
  3. QUOTE(JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Aug 17, 2006 -> 01:16 PM) i'll take my chances that this white sox offense won't get shut down 3 days in a row by crappy pitching like i said... its only gonna get worse for good old odalis

  5. QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Aug 17, 2006 -> 01:20 PM) He'll return because even at 10 million, his salary is a relative bargain considering that amount covers one season. There's not exactly many alternatives available to us outside of outbidding other organizations for pitchers. My ideal situation would have been for Buehlre to return next season, and hope perhaps Lumsden is available in 2008 to replace him. OOPS. Sure, Broadway remains in our system, but I would have expected Lumsden to reasonably duplicate Buehrle's numbers from this season. good point i just think the whole zito talk is ridiculous the guy has been good but people talk about him like he has been a CY young candidate within the last few years but he hasnt been near that the last 4 years. it is safe to say that some one will vastly overpay for his services next year
  6. gettin a little help from our friends yanks and twins both down although very early

  8. QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Aug 17, 2006 -> 01:13 PM) GAME IS OVER yea i mean why even watch or listen to this game since it is over already ozuna goes deep 1-1
  9. QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 17, 2006 -> 01:10 PM) I say trade him and sign Zito if possible i love how everyone just loves zito but buehrle has been every bit as good and probably better than him (this year aside) over the past 4 years
  10. QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 17, 2006 -> 01:08 PM) Thanks Nostradamus. thanks, i love how people are already saying we are doomed when we are down 1-0 in the 1st inning thats hilarious
  11. pre-2005 how many people would have laughed at the notion that Jon Garland would lead the White Sox in victories for two consecutive seasons in '05 and on his way in '06? I know I definitely would have been one of those laughing at this thought but Jon's 18 wins last year led the team while his 13 this year are leading the way again 2 in front of Jose, Javy, and Freddy. Hard to believe but I am glad he was able to turn it around because at the end of the 2004 season I was certainly ready to get him out of chicago. thoughts?
  12. QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 09:08 AM) The question on MacDougall is always going to be on his health not his stuff. If he can stay healthy, KW made a very good trade here. If he doesn't, Tyler Lumsden could make us regret it. Welcome to Soxtalk BTW. thanks been reading topics on here for some time now but always been too lazy to register, until now i suppose and how the hell do i make this look like a normal thread? obviously, i didnt set this thing up right
  13. QUOTE(marsh @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 08:54 AM) It seemed for the longest time other teams would bring in set up guys from the bullpen that threw 96-97, whereas our guys would be around 93. Now we have 3 guys that can go 97+. What started as a weakness at the start of the year is now one of our biggest strengths. Props to KW. Now all we have to do is get to the bullpen with a lead. i agree. i am starting to regain that 2005 feeling about our bullpen that has been missing for the majority of the 06 season. last year i felt like any time we had a lead going into the 7th inning of the game it was over because the back end of the bullpen was so damn good. i know not many like the comparisons of this team to lasts but take a look at this: '05-'06 marte = thornton polite = mcdougal hermanson = mccarthy vizciano = riske KW has lost major components to last years pen and replaced them with as good if not better guys. that truly is remarkable
  14. This could be another one of those seemingly harmless KW moves that turns out to be huge for the Sox. Last night this guy looked absolutely filthy and as long as he stays healthy he just upgraded our bullpen from pretty good to very good. He seems to provide the missing piece in the bullpen (right handed setup man) that the sox so desperately needed. I feel much better now than before if our starter were to only pitch 6 innings. 7th-mccarthy/thornton/cotts 8th-mcdougal 9th-jenks that looks pretty formidable to me. what do you all think? now if we could somehow add a healthy hermie back into the mix to replace riske (which i realize more than likely is not going to happen), I would put the sox pen up against just about anybody in the bigs
