IlliniKrush Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Just an FYI, there is some TV coverage of the winter meetings today, 1:30 on ESPN. I don't know how good it will be, but at least we can get our baseball fix in for the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan562004 Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Dec 5, 2005 -> 12:13 PM) Great Krush. Now we have have a 4 page thread about how ESPN only likes Boston and NY. Thanks for the heads up, I'll be watching. lol, well I'm ready to write a scathing post about them ripping on the PK signing and the Thome trade!!

Punch and Judy Garland Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 They usually have Gammons show up like every ten minutes or so with an update which is good for juicy rumors. They've been boring the last few years but this year should be pretty exciting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Well, considering the most interesting storyline for baseball right now is whether or not 1 of the top 5 hitters in baseball will remain in Boston next season or what Boston will get in return, I don't think I'd mind too much if the coverage focused on Boston. The White Sox are already done doing most of their damage...now we just need to start locking guys up and finding 1 fairly cheap backup infielder to go along with Pablo. Now we get to see what our competition does to try to catch up with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Dec 5, 2005 -> 10:31 AM) Willie Harris not doing it for you? Not if Pablo spends significant time either playing the outfield or starting at 3rd because of Crede's back. Our other outfield options are Timo (Please God let him go) and Borchard (gigantic question mark) so Pablo may be needed out there...and Harris is just not enough to backup every other infield spot.

The Critic Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 If the deal was right, I'd love for the Sox to get Juan Pierre, just to watch the Cub trolls' heads explode at work. I'm home today so I'll be watching BBTD ( can't call it "Tonight" if it's on at 1:30, heh heh ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take that, I think he will say the most important thing is for the Red Sox/ Yankees to continue to develop minor leaguers instead of overspending on FA's like in previous years.

Harry Chappas Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Seeing as the Sox have had the biggest moves thus far as well as being World Series champs they will touch on this then go to in depth coverage of Josh Beckett, Papelbon to closer and the state of the union in regard to Manny. Then jump to Yankee money issues and Johnny Damon. I feel a bad wrap coming to the cub for not getting Furcal but wetting themselves over the overpayment for their bullpen. The bonds coverage up the ass followed by the steroid siuation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AddisonStSox Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 These first thirty minutes have brought us a recap of the moves and signings already made this off-season and non-stop Mets talk. So, a half hour into the show, and we've yet to move away from the East Coast. As trite as that sounds, those accusations have been spot-on.

Guest JimH Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Let them slobber all over these other teams, they were wrong before and chances are they will be wrong again. By the way as I mentioned to my underground friend this morning I don't think anything will happen with Bill Mueller until after the arbitration deadline becuase it would cost draft choices to sign him now ... he is a Group A.

Harold and John have never even heard of Brian Anderson, I'll almost guarantee you that.
