Nice.

QUOTE (J.Reedfan8 @ Jul 24, 2010 -> 10:49 PM) Oddly enough, Greg is the only one that seems to hit the nail on the head. Most executives and guys with sources (also from what I've heard) have indicated any deal with Prince has to start with Beckham (or they cannot see any deal being made if the deal does not have Beckham + a prospect in it). Obviously KW will not do that. (especially with Beckham hitting again, and what we view him as) Now, I can see their asking price lowered possibly this comming off-season or by the deadline next season where a guy like Huddy would probably be the main prize (especially if he's more established, though who knows if the sox would need a 1B/DH by then) but as of right now, Prince (for us at least, maybe not other teams with better farms) is much more of a pipe dream than Adam Dunn. Again, this is where the market benefits the Sox. No one wants to pay the kings ransom for Prince and the Sox could pay less for Dunn and Fielder's price only goes down from here, so they may forcer the Brewers hand.

Curse of the Coliseum.

Excuse me Omar, whatchu doin'?

This strike zone is tighter than Mark Kotsay's wife Edit: MORE GAS

By the way, I'm chilling in the chat if anyone feels like signing in.

GAS!

Aw hell.

QUOTE (ICP! @ Jul 24, 2010 -> 02:16 PM) 2010 - obviously due for *crickets*? I would not like this pick up.

Please let this be a fast game with the way this broadcast is going.

Dead stadium + boring announcers = horrible broadcast

God Fox announcers suck so bad. Edit: Fail. They just put that Paulie has 448 HR.

QUOTE (ICP! @ Jul 24, 2010 -> 01:40 PM) I find it amazing how hard you guys are on Whitesox outfielders defense on this board throughout the years . If guys arent playing to the caliber of a Rios or Brian f'ing Anderson they are shredded a new one by everybody on here. LOL Most knowledgeable people know that Juan Pierre has been fantastic this year.

Not grindy enough.

Happy Birthday ptatc!

QUOTE (J.Reedfan8 @ Jul 24, 2010 -> 01:06 AM) I was gonna say... I like the King Felix nickname. I think it's cool for him because of how less superstar based baseball is. However, in a sport dominated by stars, LeBron has no right to the title 'King' with out a ring.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 24, 2010 -> 08:17 AM) Sounds like the words of an alcoholic. He's in denial. That's the problem. Since he sobered up, he's sucked compared to Bobby of old. Just drink a beer Bobby!

Go get 'em Freddy.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jul 24, 2010 -> 06:40 AM) don't get me wrong, I'm as big of an Alvarez fan as there is (as witnessed by my avatar)....but right not i'd have to take buster posey from that draft ... that draft is looking to be a good one though...alvaraez, posey, beckham, jason castro, brian matusz already having lots of big league success plus guys like hosmer who has broken out in a ridiculous way this year The crazy thing is, if the draft were done over today, Tim Beckham wouldn't sniff the Top 10. Gordon, Posey, Alvarez, Smoak, Wallace, Matusz, Castro, Alonso, Davis, and Kelly are all guys in the first round who could go before him in a re-draft. Imagine if the Rays had drafted Posey or Gordon...wow.

QUOTE (High Mileage @ Jul 23, 2010 -> 11:58 AM) It's widely believed Hosmer will be moved to the OF. And Butler isn't blocking Kila, Jose Guillen is. Kila isn't much better (if any) with the glove... Also, Ned Yost said Betemit will be the 3rd basemen here on out (assuming he isn't traded)... Some people's logic...

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 24, 2010 -> 12:19 AM) 1 perfect inning for Sale with 1 K. QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 24, 2010 -> 12:22 AM) Jon Gilmore with a solid 5/6 day, but had an error. It is listed as his 28th error. 28!! Can that be for real? He makes mark Teahen look like Omar Vizquel. Speaking of which, maybe Omar should have a clinic in the offseason for Gilmore.

For the record, I think if the Tigers land Haren or Twins land Oswalt, then Kenny will get Fielder, but it still won't include Gordon. I also think the limited Fielder market helps us. If you think about it, Hudson-Flowers-Viciedo-Torres-Short could be far-and-away the best offer the Brewers would get considering the Rays and Angels don't seem like they want to touch him and the Giants probably wouldn't match that. It's also the only deal I could see the Sox parting with Viciedo.

I had a dream last night we trade Gordon for Dunn and I was incredibly sad. It was not helped by the fact that Dunn didn't resign in the offseason, thus creating two holes in our lineup. That is why we will not trade Gordon.
