QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 14, 2009 -> 03:34 AM) Yes I am. Because he thoroughly, completely sucked. There was no reason in the world to bring him back. He was horses***. He also acted like a pussy down the stretch when Oz wisely benched his ass. I would never blast KW for trading him even if he hits .395 this year. He was scum on the White Sox. Do you believe everything Joe Cowley writes, or just what you want to hear? There's very little that suggest that Swish actually acted out while with the Sox, if anything, there was just a fundamental personality clash between he and Ozzie.

On the surface, i'd say this injury makes us better, I have moderate expectations for BA, but i think he has enormous potential.

QUOTE (Felix @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 11:39 PM) We should have never traded Swisher in the first place. +1, kid has a great change.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 11:31 PM) "Our Evan Longoria?" I don't think that's a ridiculious statement.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 12:06 PM) I disagree, but I am of the belief that Swisher is a bench player who had one unusually good year (that may have been chemically enhanced), and is not a good guy to have around most teams. That's funny, given that he had multiple good years, is considered to be a great guy, and has shown very little that suggest he was ever on drugs.

Jays come back to knock off Twins. Great day!

I'd give a lineup with Davis, Hamilton, Cruz, and Blalock the benefit of the doubt before calling them cheaters, but that's just me.

Gape Kapler tried that once. Didn't stick

Heh, Swish just struck out Gabe Kapler while pitching in relief.

Hopefully, we get too see this guy: 15 BRIAN ANDERSON U ARIZONA CF R/R 6'2" 205 1982-03-11 4YR 56K | 300K COMMENT: Five-tool palyer with Major League body. Quality bat potential.

Who was the poster who missed opening day to see Fast and the Furious? I demand penalty for that also.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 08:14 PM) This is the best thing I can remember ESPN doing in a long, long time. It's pretty awesome. Are you saying you didn't enjoy, who's next???!!!!!

Stoney is the best in the game. Hawk is hawk. Off topic, but I broadcasted for an off-season collegiate league, and during one of the later games, after we’d been eliminated from playoff contention, the guy’s In the press box got bored roughly around the fifth inning, no one ever really listened via radio, so we pretty much had free reign. Anyway, I did about three innings, as Hawk Harrelson, did everything, the COME ON, STRECHES, HE GAWNS, Dangnabit's, it was an absolute blast.

I wonder what we could get from the Cubs for Jenks. I really can't think of anyone i'd want from them. We don't need Vitters, Colvin, might be okay, but their system is really devoid of any talent near the top. All this is a round-about way of saying they're going to have a hell of a time filling up holes this year without giving away Vitters or even D-Lee.

Put me in the Edmonds camp.

I just saw an interview with him on Mlb Networkd. This sucks. EDIT: Sounds like he was crushed underneath his car, while working on it. What a horrible way to die.

What are the chances that even if Lilly had a no-hitter through seven, Lou brings Marmol in anyway?

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 13, 2009 -> 04:49 PM) What did you expect? Ozzie's going to want a left handed hitting centerfielder with [perceived] good speed to replace Wise. Now who in the organization matches that description. Jordan Danks? Kidding, not ready yet.

Then KW better make another f***ing move.

This is bulls***. A slap in the face to both BA and Kroeger.

IF BA doesn't get the start, he has every right to be pissed.

I enjoy watching this team.

Winning Ugly

Isn't Nix about ready to come off the DL?

Wise going out seems to of lit a fire under BA's ass.
