QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 1, 2005 -> 06:44 PM) The Saints are in the same boat. I wonder where they are going to go? AlamoDome seems to be the logical choice.. Memphis / Vanderbilt would be my second guess.

Thank you Rex.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Sep 1, 2005 -> 03:17 PM) Also...Frank was officially moved to the 60-day DL... http://whitesox.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/pr...t=.jsp&c_id=cws Frank's 60-day DL trip makes Gload/Anderson eligible for the post season roster though. (K-Rod loophole)

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 1, 2005 -> 03:00 PM) I thought Baj had struggled against lefties all season? The one thing I'm not worried about is relief....as Ozzie seems to be living or dying w/his starting pitcher. You could be right. Minor league splits are hard to come by. I was going by personal observation on that one. I'm not worried about relief, but if Sanders is on the roster, he's in danger of being used. (I've used that line before for other players. Namely Kevin Walker, Jon Adkins, and Timo Perez -- We know how they have performed this year)

QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 1, 2005 -> 02:45 PM) your telling me we don't have ANYONE down there that could make an impact? i'm shocked i forgot we're not the braves, cardinals, or twins No, I think we have 3 guys who are capable of contributing to a playoff contender. Gload, Baj, and Anderson. But from what I've seen of the player management this season, I have no reason to believe that any of them will be given a chance to contribute ahead of Timo, Sanders, and Ozuna respectively. You know Ozzie is going to use Sanders as a LOOGY in an important spot, with Neal Cotts and Marte still in the pen. Not to mention that Baj's slider appears to be more effective to lefties, and he'd probably be a better choice that Kevin Walker version 2.0. Anderson should be the first righty bat off the bench, getting the occasional start when the matchup favors him. But he'll sit and watch Ozuna and Timo make first pitch outs. Gload should get as many at-bats as is possible. I know he's not going to supplant Konerko or Jurassic, nor should he. But I fear we'll still see a line-up down the stretch with Blum at 1B and Ozuna at 3B, and that's inexcusable with Gload on the bench. (Hell it was inexcusable yesterday)

YAY! Two scrubs and a decent hitter who will ride the pine!

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Sep 1, 2005 -> 02:27 PM) They could have ordered everyone out of town Yeah, it's not like they ordered the first ever total evacuation of the city or anything.

Nothing important happens in the first inning anyways

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 11:07 PM) Yeah, can someone please change it back to the original title? Dude, the title rules. And it's staying.

PUDGE!

QUOTE(Kogs35 @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 07:18 PM) so would i, but its burkes right to refuse the assiment iirc. last time he took it when the sox outrighted him to charlotte after he passed through waivers. jamie showed he can play in the majors and hopefully he comes up instead of cassenova Look at it from Burke's perspective. Would you rather be with a team who A -- Takes you on and off the 40 man so that you can be called up to the show. B -- Enjoy the sights and sounds of the International League all year. Who cares if he has the right to refuse assignment. There's no doubt in my mind where he'd rather be.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 06:53 PM) If there's a righty pitcher, Timo won't get pinched hit for, no matter who's on the bench. Yeah, my point was along these lines, though I didn't state it very well. Ross Gload is the only player on that list who could make any significant impact, but we know he's going to be lower on the depth chart than Timo Perez.

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 06:43 PM) Really? That's crazy. I always thought we lost in playoff games to the Yankees in the 50s. Learn somehting everyday. I guess we are f***ed then. The Sox pennant in 59 was preceded by a 10 year stretch where the Yanks won the pennant 9 times. The year they didn't make the WS, they still had 103 wins. The years immediately following '59, the Yanks won 5 straight pennants. The Sox finished 2nd a number of times over that stretch, so it was like playoff games.

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 06:36 PM) So did we win the "go to the world series drawing" in 59? Yeah, back then when you had the best record in the AL, you went to the WS. There was no ALCS.

Somebody's tired of watching this sorry ass club fold down the stretch?

LOL Casanova = Spanish for CRAP Sanders = another way to say Kevin Walker Borchard = LOL Anderson and Baj are players, but they're not exactly going to carry you to the promised land. I think Anderson may have blown his wad already with that game in Seattle.

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 05:53 PM) Don't forget Cheat is an avid cyclist. I'm just under 3K on the bike so far this year, with about 2,400 on the Truck. For the year, I'll probably end up with a little under 4K on the bike, but about 4,500 on the truck.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 31, 2005 -> 05:46 PM) Did you have to walk 15 miles in the freezing cold during a blizzard to get to school? I never took a bus to school that's for sure.

f*** no. Back in my day, there were no fat people. We had to walk everywhere.

I saw $3.35 today.

I'm taking Ball State and the points. Iowa doesn't score alot. Ferentz isn't the type of guy to run up the score. Seems like a good bet.

Minnesota has 13 hits in 9 innings, yet failed to score. They headed to the bottom of the ninth tied 0-0, but lost on a couple singles and an error.
