I think you heard the sound of Sox fans breathing again after Pods got another stellar read on a flyball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSGuy406 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 (edited) QUOTE(qwerty @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 05:08 AM) They have nearly 70 million invested in 16 players next year i have just read. That seems kinda high to me but i have not checked to see if it was accurate or not. Either way, i would rather up grade at mutiple positions than just one... especially considering the guy we would be paying twelve millio has only had one great year and one solid one. Can someone actually look this up? How does that make any sense? We're at what, $75-$78 million right now? We lose $8 million from Konerko, and another $8 million (or so) from Thomas. I realize that raises will probably bring that number up a bit, but to $70 million? You know what? Nevermind. That actually does make sense. Garland + Pierzynski get arbitration raises, I think Uribe's and Rowand's contract calls for increases after every year, and same goes for the guys we signed this offseason, El Duque, Iguchi, Dye, and Hermanson...

fathom Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Not to get too analytical, but it's about time we shaded E. Brown up the middle. He has a handful of hits against us this season on grounders just like the one he made an out on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwerty Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 12:05 AM) I'd look to trade Politte before I would Hermanson. I actually think there's going to be a lot of changes this offseason. Something I was thinking about was this: would Ozzie and KW take a chance with putting Rowand in RF, Dye at 1b, and try to sign Juan Pierre? You know Ozzie loves Pierre. Pierre= cheaper than furcal ( who i highly doubt we get but others think we have a great shot at)... so that sounds great to me. I have a feeling we are gonna get disgusted with the furcal talk this year, just like last season it was renteria and orlando GOD cabrera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize that raises will probably bring that number up a bit, but to $70 million? http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...ack=1&cset=true The White Sox's Williams could face an off-season nightmare if his budget remains under $80 million. The breakout season by Jon Garland, the buyout clause in Frank Thomas' contract and built-in seven-figure raises for Mark Buehrle, Freddy Garcia, Orlando Hernandez, Dustin Hermanson, Jermaine Dye, Aaron Rowand, Scott Podsednik, Juan Uribe, Damaso Marte, A.J. Pierzynski and Joe Crede (first-time arbitration-eligible) already have about $70 million committed to 16 veterans who figure to stay for 2006. I am gonna make a contract thread after the game probally ( with salary arbitration guesses). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got them at 57.35 figuring they buy out Everett and Frank.. The only Arb eligble player I added was Garland at $7M (which is about what he'd earn next year) Other Arb eligble guys who I didn't figure are Viz (2M max?) and Crede(who knows?)
