flavum Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 11:17 PM) This cements Hudson being called up to start. At least, in my mind. Torres will start Thursday. Hudson was going to start tonight before the rain out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ginger Kid Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 QUOTE (Reddy @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 09:16 PM) i'm feeling really bad for Thome right now. you know he said yes because it was what the org. wanted from him even though it meant a sacrifice of his own playing time. not many would do the same... yes indeed - a very sad day for me. I wanted the big man to get his ring with the Sox. But I was also very disappointed with his contribution this season. Still, he's no doubt one of my favorite all time White Sox.

SoxAce Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I was already rooting for the Rockies in the NL (my favorite NL team). Looks like the Dodgers will be up there too./ maybe past it if they play each other in the NLCS if they get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenksycat Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 11:17 PM) If Kenny actually got something for Contreras, I applaud him. If he was able to get rid of Jose, why couldn't he get rid of Linebrink...? there are about 10 million reasons why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCSox Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 QUOTE (b-Rye @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 09:19 PM) I'll be rooting for the Dodgers again in the playoffs.. and not for taking the cubs out. Yeah, I may actually root against the Cardinals in the NL for the first time in years. That'll be strange... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Fireworks Man Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I have nothing but respect for Jose Contreras and If this is true I'm happy that he was traded to a team willing to give him a shot in a playoff race instead of just cutting him this late in the season, especially since rosters have expanded. Best to you, Jose and thank you for the World Series. I wish you all the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 11:19 PM) Torres will start Thursday. Hudson was going to start tonight before the rain out.

Kalapse Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 QUOTE (Reddy @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 11:18 PM) oh i understand that, but nonetheless, couldn't be easy. I guess when you're 38 years old, you're headed to the hall of fame, there's only 31 games left in the year, you're a ring away from making your career complete and you have the opportunity to go from a team that's 6 down to a team that's 6 up in the standings such decisions become easier.

chw42 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 QUOTE (Kalapse @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 11:18 PM) There's a $10M+ difference. I know, but Linebrink even has more glamor than Jose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 wow this is awesome news for me I no doubt respect both them.. but getting these 2 off the team for GOOD is soooo nice for next year to me I was getting so sick of watching these 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
