You'll need at least an iphone 3Gs for all of the cool new features to work. The only difference I see is the ability to group programs into folders and ipod playlist stuff. Thankfully the iphone 4 will be here Thursday morning.

QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Jun 22, 2010 -> 09:33 AM) Because he's a left-handed, strong defensive RF who is currently hitting .281/.370/.449 which is much better than anyone on our team right now not named Konerko or Rios, and also because the Cubs will have to eat salary and move him for nothing, and furthermore it allows us to dump 2 bad contracts that extend beyond the year while improving the ballclub. Sounds like a great idea to me. Yeah but hasn't he been on a slump lately - which is signs that his average will sink back down to around .258?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 22, 2010 -> 09:18 AM) I don't even know where to start with this one. Try starting with why on Earth we would want Fukindone...

How good is DeJesus defensively? Does he have a good arm? Also, he doesn't steal bases. I don't know if I would replace Pierre with him. I guess you would play him in RF and make Quentin the full time DH.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 21, 2010 -> 10:36 AM) And thanks for the $400,000, suckers. It's gotta suck to be only pulling in $400k when some of your teamates are making almost $15 million per year. Wait... I forgot to use the green text for that.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 20, 2010 -> 02:39 PM) Great defender, not much of a hitter. If we can acquire him and LaRoche, that'd be awesome. LaRoche strikes out a lil too much... and that's against NL pitching.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 21, 2010 -> 09:23 AM) He had the most appearances for the first 6-8 weeks of the season and was continually put into important situations early on. And he blew it and cost the Sox some wins? Eh... I still say I don't wanna ruin Sale's growth. Maybe they should try Threets first.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 21, 2010 -> 09:11 AM) That's quite the large limb you went out on there. Randy Williams says hi. I didn't say that Randy Williams didn't suck. But Randy Williams isn't the only reason that the Sox got off to such a bad start. Has he cost us a lot of games? I haven't looked it up but it seems to me that he only been in during garbage time. I just don't wanna ruin the kid by bringing him up too soon. Let him marinate a lil bit in the minors and let's concentrate on getting some more hitting.

QUOTE (Lillian @ Jun 21, 2010 -> 07:00 AM) The Hell with August. Bring him up!!!!!! Seriously, If everyone is worried about his motion, just let him be the LOOGY for the rest of this year. That would not give him enough innings to damage his arm, no matter how bad his mechanics might be. The funky motion might make him really hard to hit, if he isn't over exposed. He's supposed to have really good control, and two plus Big League pitches. That just might work as a LOOGY. He wanted a chance to get to the Majors this year, so I say give it to him. Apparently, he has plenty of self confidence. If he flops, then there is always "plan B". Let him go down to the Minors and prepare to be a starter next year. The Sox will have fulfilled their obligation to give him a shot at the Majors this year. It looks like a win - win situation to me. I'm not sure how smart it would be to let a kid like that come to the big show without paying his dues in the minor leagues first. Plus the Sox aren't dying right now for left handed pitching. Getting another left hand arm isn't what would put us over the top right now.

QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 18, 2010 -> 11:40 PM) Did anyone notice the other night when the Sox beat the Pirates in the game where they made all those errors in the 9th, the highlights were Pedro Alvarez's first AB and then his errors in the 9th.. not a single Sox highlight from that game was in the reel.. And Baseball Tonight hardly ever has more than 30 seconds of White Sox info. But they give extensive coverage of the yanks and the red cubs. Karl Ravech and Jason Stark hate the White Sox too.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 18, 2010 -> 11:32 PM) I've said this probably 5843274573473484 times in the last year and a half. So let's make it 54734764374374374373474 and 1 more time: THERE IS NO REASON WHATSOEVER TO WATCH ESPN FOR BASEBALL PURPOSES!!!!!! MLB NETWORK IS KING!!!!!!! I hear you, but unfortunately I have AT&T U-Verse, and they don't carry the MLB Network. I watched MLB Network all the time when I still had Comcast though.

Freaking ESPN... They report on the game and all they talk about is Strasburg. They don't even mention Gavin's name. I used to love them, but I've been steadily losing respect for anything ESPN since 2005 when Berman almost cried on air when we swept the Red Cubs in the first round.

I wanted that extra run..

I don't think Teahen is getting his job back. Not this year.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jun 18, 2010 -> 10:19 AM) Please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit THANKS!!!

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 17, 2010 -> 07:17 PM) Carlos Quentin is one of the most interesting players in baseball... I hear that Dos Equis guy is his uncle...

Please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit please don't get no hit

So where's the Jayson Nix appreciation thread??

If they sweep the Nationals, and Minnesota loses the next few (especially going up against Halladay and Hamels), I'll have faith. But it'll suck if this is just false hope and they go back to being bad when they're done playing the NL.

Scott who??

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jun 17, 2010 -> 02:34 PM) 6 back in the loss column.....lord I know of more than 6 games that the Sox pissed/gave away this year. Twins face Halladay and Hamels over the weekend. Right. Twins lose today and we really need to take advantage and complete the sweep. I really wanna take down my BLOW IT UP KENNY avatar..

And the plot thickens... I just hope he doesn't come up here and suck real bad. Hey, wouldn't it be freaking phenomenal if he pitched the game against the Nats and Strasburg, and actually OUTPITCHED HIM for the W?? How cool would that be?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2010 -> 10:00 AM) He's terrible this year, I'm not going to be upset if the Twins get him. I'd rather they get him than an actual difference maker. I just remember how good he was with the Rays. I don't want to see him that good with the twins.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 17, 2010 -> 09:35 AM) I bet you a beer that the twins get him very soon to play 3B. That would be a good bet. F***.
