QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Aug 19, 2007 -> 05:40 PM) I remember several members saying, "oh, well, if you want to compete you need somone such as Garland." The entire point was, and still is, that we needed someone of value (with service time remaining) to be traded in order to receive positional prospects. We could absorb the loss of pitcher more than any other position. At the end of July it was quite obvious this team wasn't going to be doing anything in October. We'll regret the decision each passing day if starts such as this afternoon keep coming up. I honestly believe Williams just doesn't understand the idea of trading high. He'd rather unload people at their lowest value then take a calculated risk. I really feel that KW is living in denial over how bad this team has become. Instead of being proactive he is waiting for the core of his WS team to start winning again...It's frustrating and disheartening.

Alex Cintron...Great veteran AB there. Add him the DFA wish list.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2007 -> 01:47 PM) I was out of the country, I have little clue what was going on besides the scheduled starters. Ahh...Contreras pitched on Wednesday and yesterday. No one else has been able to go deep into a game so by default, unless we made a roster move, we have know one else on this team who could start a game and go more than three innings.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2007 -> 01:43 PM) Quick question: what happened to the skipped start that Danks was supposed to get this time though the rotation? I'm assuming you don't want the obvious answer?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 12, 2007 -> 01:33 PM) And why isn't Richar playing? I didn't know a 24 year old needed 2 days off a week. Ozzie's handling of young players is Dusty Bakeresque...Seriously I WANT TO FREAKING SEE RICHAR AND FIELDS PLAY EVERY DAY. ALEX CINTRON????????? SERIOUSLY?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 11, 2007 -> 11:42 PM) I'd love to see Erstad released and Jason Bourgeois recalled from Charlotte. As a matter of fact outside of KW/Ozzie's love for Erstad I have no idea why this move has yet to be made. He brings nothing to the team, at least with Bourgeois we'd get a glimpse of a possible Cintron replacement. The fact that Ozzie finds a way to get Erstad into the lineup every single day is the biggest reason why he needs to be gone. We make up ways to insert him into the lineup. I hope we release him but frankly, we all know hes going to be injured again soon anyways...

I would say the Charlie Haeger experience has about ran its course.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Aug 1, 2007 -> 08:40 PM) I don't know if Hawk realizes Egbert exists. He's only the best pitcher statistically in the Southern league, why would he know he exists?

Tell me Ozzie isn't seriously going lefty-righty matchups in a game we are down by six runs and have shown zero life. Embarrassing...I love it. It's really sad that Grindy isn't playing today

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 29, 2007 -> 11:06 AM) Cintron says "STFU SoxTalk." Why isn't Fields playing today? I still can't comprehend it

Can someone explain to me why Fields isn't playing? Anyone?

Way to capitalize, with a shot single, lazy play and a gross throw by Iguchi.

Look Hawk, Good luck!!!!!!!!! Oh wait, we don't speak of that.

It is seriously only the 6th inning?

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jul 25, 2007 -> 09:31 PM) Perspective Contreras ERA is now 6.22, and I suspect his record will be 5-13 after tonight. To put things in perspective, Jamie Navarro's worst year with the SOx was 1998 ERA 6.36 with an 8-16 record Memory Lane - 6.36 Navarro Drive Thank goodness he is still under contract after this season!!!

QUOTE(TheOcho @ Jul 25, 2007 -> 09:22 PM) Then who's the other starter? Mark Javy Haeger Danks Gar

This may or may not have been discussed yet but that brunette sitting behind the sox dugout is quite attractive

Well at least Logan induced a rocket line drive to Paulie to end the inning.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 25, 2007 -> 09:16 PM) Contreras' ERA is going to be around 7 soon. If Ozzie was being serious when he said that this team has a chance, then he needs to quit right now, as his managing this inning was purely idiotic. Wait Ozzie changed his mind? We once again have a chance?

Two Questions: 1.Who was worse today Kenny Rogers or Jose Contreras? 2. Who is older Kenny Rogers or Jose Contreras?

Iguchi adding to his trade value

Dewon Day has made an appearance..I'm now bracing myself for fun bad baseball.

QUOTE(JDsDirtySox @ Jul 23, 2007 -> 10:07 PM) I don't know which is worse... Our Play or Hawk. I feel bad for DJ... I wish DJ would just punch him or throw his microphone at him. At least Hawk can blame the bad hop for this loss.

I heart the pussified white sox broadcast that won't even show replays to crucial plays like the IRod out at home play... What a disgrace of a franchise all the way around. Two years after winning a WS

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jul 22, 2007 -> 02:53 PM) With HAeger warming again, who starts Tuesday, Floyd or Egbert? I hope its not Egbert because I hold hope that he will be a good starter, but all too often whenever we bring someone up from the minors I get horribly disappointed and devestated by reality. I hope I'm wrong and he does do well but the past 10 years of White Sox minor league pitching prospects has soured me.
