RME JICO Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 QUOTE(LVSoxFan @ Mar 25, 2007 -> 04:27 PM) Bingo there was number three. Our top three are 0-7. Make that 0-8.The worst part is that it was against a RHP. Imagine a LHP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Mar 25, 2007 -> 09:28 PM) Make that six AB's between Podsednik and Erstad that neither have hit a baseball further than five feet out of the infield. So the soxtalk rule is that we're not allowed to openly root for injuries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Giving Ozzie 2 toys like Pods and Erstad will turn out to be the worst move KW has ever made as GM I think. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Mar 25, 2007 -> 03:36 PM) Sorry, I need to rant a bit. I hate the feeling I have about Mark, but I just have such a bad taste in my mouth after the performance he gave in the 2nd half of the season last year, and him following that up with this s*** spring hasn't helped my view of him. There is a LONG laundry list of reasons why we tanked the 2nd half of the season last year, but for me, Mark is on the top of the list. He just let me down so much last season, I really have this built up hatred for him,and I hate having it. He seems like a great guy, and a great clubhouse guy, but the performance has just not been there, and on top of that, there is the contract discussion. Here's a thought, pitch better than Jordan4life, and maybe you will get your money. I am so sick of hearing about what Mark is worth, his agent comparing him to Zito and Meche. STFU, and get a ERA under 4.99, then you can talk. Fixed. I am also very concerned about Mark. But I thought B-Mac was the reason we didn't make the playoffs?

I've not seen a pitcher go over a cliff like he did last year so I wonder if something really, really key broke/changed/wore out. I agree with you that as Buehrle goes, the Sox go.

I don't know if this makes me a bad fan, but if the Sox aren't going to make the playoffs, I hope they're far enough out of the race at the trade deadline that we can trade Buehrle. The worst thing that could happen is to not make the playoffs, and then lose Buehrle via free agency after the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst thing that could happen is to not make the playoffs, and then lose Buehrle via free agency after the year. I believe if we're anymore than 6 games out of the division or wild card it should be time to sell off pieces. But only if what we receive is better than the compensation picks Dye and Buehrle may provide. It's just going to be frustrating because you know that's exactly what will happen, and people will have this delusion of the team putting everything together in the second half like Houston and Cleveland did in years past. Oh, and Stewart is really making Walker look bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
