this isnt an excuse to miss game 4 of sox/cubs

knowing uribe hell throw up a .400 spring and then we wont trade him and hell tank during the season

what are the odds ba makes this team?

seasons over we might as well just give up and not even watch because its not likely that we can get lucky and everyone has career years

i think it would be cool to get paid six figures to talk about the sport you love forever

it seems to always happen that we can get the tough 2nd out, then give up a hit on the next batter

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Jul 30, 2007 -> 05:39 PM) Sandy Alomar Jr. stepping in. Kenny trades minor league prospects for sandy alomar jr as manager and robbie alomar as bench coach...its the big july 31 surprise

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 28, 2007 -> 08:54 PM) And Dubee with 1 IP, 3 K, 0 H, 0 BB in his Kannapolis debut. hopefully there is something we saw in this kid that no one else saw.

it's nice to see buerhle get even better after he signed his contract. i know he has many more years left to pitch for us, but at least he didn't pack it in and turn to s*** like zito.

i have faith in the 20 game winning streak and the greatest comeback in baseball history

who would want contreras?

QUOTE(hitlesswonder @ Jul 21, 2007 -> 11:02 PM) CF: Erstad or Rowand Keep in mind that I think KW and Ozzie think they are playing to win when they trot Erstad out there. They fall in love with flawed players. Owens is clearly playing his way into their hearts with his rampant foot speed. The problem isn't not playing to win. It's talent evaluation. why couldnt torii hunter be an option here?

I know unless we can pull a miracle we are most likely done but why do they keep going to this guy. He either has nothing left or has some kind of arm trouble, can't we start working on a new 5th starter and give him some time off in bullpen or maybe put him on the DL if there is some problem with his arm and maybe save something for next season. I know that anybody we throw in there can't do any worse than Jose whether its Haeger , Gio who is doing well in Birmingham, Masset, Gavin Floyd who has had decent stats in Charlotte, or Lance Broadway. Maybe even put Jose in the bullpen and use him as a spot starter or something, rather than act like nothing is wrong.

i no the media loves the red sox/yankees but i just dont see whats so special about the red sox or the yankees this year both teams lack the pitching necessary to win. i would not be shocked if the blue jays surprised people in that division.

honestly you gotta be kiddin me for blaming ozzie on freak injuries. the only injuries you can have justification in placing the blame on the manager for are pitching injuries, otherwise, really he had no control over that. what do want him to do sit the whole starting lineup for the next week so they start the season cold? things will happen and there is nothing you can do about. hopefully for toby hall's sake his injury is not to serious.

ya i think this will be good for him. hell have some growing pains but hopefully not too bad. does anyone know what number danks is? i havent gotten a chance to see him throw yet.

i dont understand people bashing pods and erstad before the season starts. if they can both stay healthy i think that they will only help our team. you cant really make any judgements before the season because anything can happen. erstad has been a great hitter in the past and he has shown this spring that there is no reason that he cant regain his past performance even after his past couple of years. look at frank thomas last year, he had a couple of injury plagued bad seasons then had a change of scenery by moving to oakland and then had a solid season. there is no reason that erstad cant have that same fate.

QUOTE(AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Mar 17, 2007 -> 09:36 PM) but i'm sure Dye will bat 5th again ya i think he bats better from that position

should be 1 pods 2 erstad 3 dye 4 thome 5 konerko 6 iguchi 7 crede 8 pierzynski 9 uribe

does ne one know our startin lineup

QUOTE(DrunkBomber @ Mar 7, 2007 -> 01:51 PM) I really dont see how it could be a good idea to trade Garland. All the benefits of trading him are all the reasons we should keep him. Hes young. hes been consistent and getting better and we have him for two more years. ya because really how much longer does contreras have past his current contract, garland is the future of the sox staff

how is billy beane ranked in the mid 20s...hasnt he had a contender every season with a midlevel payroll. he should be atleast top 10 if not top 5

i dont think crede will be worth the money hes asking...josh fields will be ready by 2008

what about bring haegar in for a bull pen role this year? our bull pen is filled with power pitchers and we need someone to throw off hitters. he could be a solid set up man for jenks.
