Need to minimize this to one run and we still have a shot

So much for the sweep.

f***ing bulls***, Colon should have stayed in,

Grudzielanek singles

I think i'd go into shock if it actually happened. Marte will probably face Patterson to lead off the 9th if he gets the next two guys.

1 down, O'Leary grounds out to the pitcher.

This I know, but Cardiac Koch better be sharp today and not walk anyone.

Bart is done for the day....

Damn it, brings in Marte, this means Cardiac Koch will most likely pitch the 9th.

I did for about 7 innings then I couldn't take it anymore. Him and the governor are too much to listen to.

I finally had to quit watching on TV and turn on Rooney and Farmer. Can't take f***ing Chimp anymore.

Who isn't "very interested" in Mark Buehrle? Problem is we aren't interested in trading him.

Garland has thrown a quality start 6 of the last 7 times out... could he be turning the corner? Let's hope so.

Just saw in the Trib that they are indeed doing what I suggested. Smart move JM

Hopefully the Sox don't skip Wright and here will be our rotation up through next Sunday Monday: Off Tuesday: Loaiza Wednesday: Wright Thursday: Garland Friday: Buehrle Saturday: Colon Sunday: Loaiza Looks good to me, especially for the weekend tilt at the Cell.

I'll take Frank today

Inning over, need to get those 3 back right here

Gotta get this guy, come on Mark

Great defense by Willie.

Double Play just the way I like it.

Let's go Mark B

I believe so too. I would kept Dorn and Olivo in the lineup today though, they were some Cub Killas yesterday.

Here are the Lineups: Mark B vs. Matt Clement Harris - CF Jimenez - 2B Ordonez - RF Daubach - 1B Lee - LF Valentin - SS Crede - 3B Paul - C Buehrle - P Grudzielanek - 2B Patterson - CF Sosa - RF Alou - LF Karros - 1B Hernandez - 3B Gonzalez - SS Miller - C Clement - P Frank and PK available for pinch hitting today.

Standard bonus contracts include provisions (or funds) to pay for college if the player doesn't make it. For instance, if they sign him for $600k they would likely add another $50k into a fund to pay for school. Sometimes the amount of that fund can slow or even halt negotiations. In the case of wanting to go to Vandy, you are likely looking at an additional $75k at least. Who knows how much Vandy will cost 5 or 6 years from now? Isn't it close to $20k a year now? Try over 30K OUCH Wonder how much of that $30k Moviel will have to cover at Vandy? Not likely he is on full scholarship. If he is a good student, could get some money from that.
