QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 05:58 PM) weve beaten 57 teams This is quite some feat, considering there are olny 29 other teams in baseball.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 12, 2005 -> 09:57 AM) Great info, thanks for posting it. One thing the article didn't mention on Young ... his arm. As I understand it that's always been a drawback. However, watching him closely in Tucson, I didn't get the impression his arm was way below average. He doesn't have the cannon Sweeney has but it looked at least average to me. Well, one thing for sure ... when these other team's scouts are looking at White Sox prospects, you can bet they're looking at Chris Young. I would love to hang onto all these kids but I don't think it's possible. It was very interesting to note how his strikeout rate has slowed down. That's critical, it shows he's making adjustments. I only got to see him make one throw in the Futures game, but I would say his arm is average. I was expecting a noodle arm, so I was actually impressed that it wasn't that bad.

That's great, Zambrano would also be the 4th best hitter on the team. They wouldn't win anything.

John Kelly -- Played football (DB I think) at Nebraska - Was Channel 5 sports guy - Then went to NY for year - then went national like on a Cable sports station somewhere -- Then sold his soul to the devil and he's currently working with that other hack Mark McGrath on that crapass OMG Britney is Preggers and TOMKAT broke up show.

Welcome to baseball stardom Mr. Abreu. It's about time.

QUOTE(VAfan @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 07:20 PM) Since Buehrle and Garland are both starters on the same team, if I was Francona I would hold Garland as my last pitcher and use him only if the game goes extra innings. It is no reflection on Garland's abilities, but it is probably the right thing to do. I would think that Clement might be the last option.

Can I take Abreu now?

I recommended the Buzz Bissinger book for August, but I went to put it on hold at the library, and I came to the conclusion that we might wanna choose a different book. Not only was I like 15th on the waiting list, but I think it's only available in hardback. That means like $20+ for you college kids out there. That's not chump change... Should we change it?

Ortiz is my pick Jones and Lee have good showings.

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 06:02 PM) Addition by subtraction (of Luis Rivas). Okay move, nothing to worry too much about. But if they're using leftover salary space on Boone, that's a pretty good sign. The salary is a pro-rated minimum. so something along the lines of 150K. Nothing that a major league ballclub should worry about. (It's less than the Sox have to pay out in all-star bonuses over the next two years now)

I'm going to shoot the person who makes this thread again.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 03:19 PM) It's probably a combination of giving himself up so many times and the scouting report calling for breaking balls in the dirt. Yeah, he's seeing more breaking balls. It was clear early that he wasn't picking them up very well. He's still not. That being said, on friday I was concerned. He had a declining OBP, and I thought he was dragging down the offense. Then I saw Willie Harris play. -- The numbers don't tell you what Tads is doing out there. He is a great player.

Lets kill all of the Aaron for third campaining until Frank is Burried 6 feet under.

Gee, I wonder what the 'qualifications' are to work up there?

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Jul 10, 2005 -> 06:03 PM) I didn't see enough of the series to say much but what was with having Willie pinch run for Carl, AFTER you had Carl bunted over to second. If you want to pinch run, do it right away. Maybe we could have had Willie steal and then get sacrificed over to have one out and a man on third. Kind of a brain cramp there in my opinion. Correct. This, and not removing Cotts (Something is wrong there. Not only was his control not there. He didn't top 90 MPH. Part of his improvement this season is because he's added about 2MPH to his fastball, to 91-93MPH. I hope he's not hurt or something. There's three days off at the right time though, I suppose.) when he looked terrible were really the only boneheaded moves I saw.

QUOTE(danman31 @ Jul 10, 2005 -> 03:46 PM) Young to face Yusmeiro Petit of the Mets. First pitch strike looking. Foul off to the right side. Pop up to 2nd baseman. Well that at-bat sucked. He grounded to third in his second AB. He almost made it to 2nd before that pop up came down.
