Heads22

Wow 1996 and 97. Just when I came into Sox fandom....some strangely interesting teams.

Adam is still alive and still walking more than he hits. 29 BB and 28 hits.

Did anyone else feel he was gonna pull something running the basepaths? Especially with the tumble through second?

I prefer Larry or Layne.

Intelligent discussion around here seems to be fading. God, I'd hate to see a losing streak.

What was it like seeing your stock rise so quickly? What team did you cheer for growing up? Are you as handy with the bat as you are pitching?

I like Cheap Seats. Bring back the CFL on ESPN. My dad said it was a great excuse to get s***-faced. I have yet to connect the dots on that one. I guess some dots are better left unconnected.

I totally forgot about Clement. An Iowa boy to boot. I'm swinging into his camp.

He has had 2 bad outings this year, other then that his ERA has been close to 2.50, which is great for a RP. Everyone loved Shingo last year, and now that he started slow, everyone hates him. He started s***ty last year as well, and finshed 2nd in the ROY voting. So just lay off Shingo, because he is the least of the White Sox worries this year. All of you people need to stop getting f***en hard over Baj. He isnt that good. He sucked last year when he came up, and he will suck balls again. If he was really THAT good, dont you think they would have brought him up over Walker? The only reason that you guys want him to be called up is because he posts on this f***en site. Thats it. WOW I post on this site, and throw 85+MPH, why doesnt everyone want me on the Sox. You dont cuz I am not good enough, just like Baj isnt good enough. The Sox have better options to bring up if they need another arm in the pen. These options include: Felix Diaz: He preformed great out of the pen in 04, sucked as a starter, but not out of the pen Bobby Jenks: This kid throws HEAT. has good stuff. They only draw-back is his attitude, but Ozzie will not take his attitude and will straighten him up. Sean Tracy: Impressed me in the Spring, and is doing good in the minors. Josh Stewart, Dave Sanders, Corwin Malone, Ryan Meaux, Paulino Reynoso are also players that should get consideration to be called up if we think Baj should be called up. Let's look at our RP options: Hermanson Politte Marte Cotts Shingo Vizcaino Walker Baj Diaz Jenks Tracey Stewart Sanders Malone Meaux Reynoso Now let's remove the top 4 that aren't going anywhere, and the final two spots that are left. We'll also remove non-40-man roster players, as I can't see us removing someone from the 40-man for the last bullpen spot. Shingo Vizcaino Walker Baj Diaz Jenks Tracey Reynoso You've now got 8 men vying for two spots. Forget Tracey. I don't know why he was under consideration in the first place. In fact, forget anyone in AA, including Jenks, because it's been discussed how Baj is a better option than Jenks, especially with all the BHam pitchers in a great pitcher's park versus the Knights in a bandbox. Shingo Vizcaino Walker Baj Diaz You can also take Viz off that list as he's been rounding into form. Shingo Walker Baj Diaz Now, Walker had his chance, and he clearly blew it. Diaz is actually a viable option, but it looks like the Sox want him to still focus on starting. Out of Shingo, Baj and Diaz, Baj should at least deserve a chance. ERA of 1.01, 14 H in 26.2 IP. Yes, I realize he has 15 walks, but his WHIP is just barely above one. His walk rate is below that of Shingo, plus Shingo is allowing 1 HR over every two innings. It's really really tough to justify anyone deserving that last bullpen spot, or at least a shot at it, over Baj.

I believe I read on WhiteSox.com that Timo has options?

Sean Tracey hitting a batter. Shocking.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 09:36 PM) Is it really that bad, Heads? My teacher who is usually pretty straight up with us told us it's pretty dry and boring, so I believe her. But, I don't think anything is/was as boring as reading Emma (by Jane Austin, right?). Mercy, what a boring book... Nothing at all of interest happened in JE.

Either use just the code or just the pre tag. Otherwise I believe they cancel each other out.

The Best of You is f***ing awesome.

I've never been a big Morse fan. Has he started to use a glove in the field yet?

:uhoh

Happy BDay!

I don't see any reason why we just can't start and then if there's no one around, the resident Italian can make the pick.

Well, I'm going to be gone Friday thru Monday now in the land of all that is Minnesotan. So I don't know how I'm gonna do this.
