Flash Tizzle Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 11, 2007 -> 07:15 PM) Our minor league development needs to be terminated as a group. Low and away is poison. Its like no one in the International league can throw away. The failures of Sweeney, Anderson, Owens, and (up until this point) Fields have highlighted an abysmal track record of producing talent. It's honestly pathetic. We're in the wrong division to experience what we've gone through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 11, 2007 -> 07:15 PM) Been meaning to ask you DA....what's your thoughts on if it's better for this team to lose right now over the next few weeks in order to convince KW and Ozzie that this team sucks? They aren't going to catch Cleveland and they have a few teams to jump over for the wildcard. I don't think they can win unless a miracle happens and the bullpen can get someone out. I have a feeling KW is not going to want to admit failure however. Buerhle should bring a nice package. Dye could bring something back as well and save money. They actually would have more money to throw at Buerhle this offseason the sooner they deal him. If he's serious about being here that is. I wonder how its going to go over on this board when he signs with the Cardinals and at his introductory press conference says St. Louis is the place he always wanted to be.

spiderman Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 11, 2007 -> 07:20 PM) Two weeks is my prediction. If the Cubs kick our ass, then you'll hear everyone saying we're done. I don't know that Williams can wait that long to make a move - IF he intent on helping the team this season. Cleveland and Detroit are just too good to hope the current situation improves....Oh wait, I forgot D.Erstad is coming back! QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 11, 2007 -> 07:20 PM) Two weeks is my prediction.

He's a tough dude, but that's a painful injury and something he's going to tweak a few more times this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutcliffe just dissected Javier Vazquez tipping his pitches, I hope someone with the White Sox organization tries to address it, because they're calling every one of his pitches and the location from the broadcast booth.

St. Louis would be such a good trade candidate, if only they had better prospects. I could see Reyes turning into KW's Floyd boy, and he'd be the centerpiece of the trade. If Buehrle doesn't stay with the Sox, I'd love to see him go to the Cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we can still work out a 3 or 4 year deal for Buerhle. If we don't keep the one strength on our team, starting pitching, we are not going to be competitive in the AL Central. I would hope that they would try again before they decide to move him. I know he can get us back nice prospects, or players on the verge of the majors, but we're not going to win anything with kids in our rotation in the AL.

If he thinks this team is good enough to go on a 30-5 run or something like that, the Sox may suck for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading for Adam Dunn is going to do what exactly ? If we stink, fine. It sucks, but I want Williams doing what he can to strengthen next year's team. Erin Andrews is amazing.

Well it seems that Greg cant help the vets because they are proven. So lets see if he can help one rookie hit better. He didnt do a damn thing with BA until the kid dug a huge hole. This year was project 2007 Uribe, Walkers self mission to help Uribe. His project is a failure so far. Maybe we can get Hrniak to come back for another seminar and fix some of the Walk issues.

Buerhle isn't going to take a 3 or 4 year contract IMO. Think 5-7 years with big money. The Sox don't go that long with pitchers. It really is a pretty good policy.
