I just dont understand the hate for Timo. Yeah his batting average sucks but hes been awesome with runners in scoring position and as clutch as anybody. Just wait till he gets a big pinch hit in the playoffs like he did with the Mets a few years back and then you all can shut up about Timo.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 08:39 AM) The best was Harold's reason for picking Mariano Riviera. He says he won't pick pick either Buehrle or Garland just because the White Sox are in first. He says it should be given to someone on pitching ability. Fine. But then he goes on to say the reason he picks Mariano is because he is winning ball games for the Yanks and keeping them in contention .

Youve seen Blum play 3 games and you already come to the conclusion that Blum cant hit. Let him play a few more games before you pass judgement. 10 ab is hardly a sample. Believe me im the biggest Gload supporter out there. There just isnt any room for him right now.

Probably a stupid question but I havent heard much about Felix this year. Is he even with the sox anymore or is he hurt?

LH RBI producer=Ross Gload.

Is anybody else worried that we do not have a backup first baseman yet we have a perfectly capable one down in Charlotte in Ross Gload. What do Ozzie and Kenny have against him? He was awesome last year. Why are they treating him like they did Kelly Wunsch last year?

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 08:40 PM) I believe he'll be back right after the ASB. I think Ozzie's going to finally send Willie down. I'd rather have Harris up here, and I'm sure a majority of us still would. However, Ozzie's not going to send Timo down; I don't see that happening. Am I the only one here that still likes Timo. Can anybody here say CLUTCH. Please I hope they send Willie down. He ticked me off today when he couldnt even get a bunt down in the 11th. Timo gets big hits. Willie cant even get a bunt down. The only thing Willie has over Timo is speed.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Jul 10, 2005 -> 05:18 PM) The thing that's scaring me now is that the A's are like 5 out of the wild card. There's a chance that if the Sox get into the playoffs they'll be looking at a best of 5 with the A's That would be just our luck if we had the best record in baseball and we have to play Oakland in the wild card. I pray that does not happen.

I have 2 tix in section 108 for the Detroit game on Mon. July 18 that I need to get rid of. PM me if interested.

We did the work. Pray that Scotty gets it and there is no last second "surge" for Jeter.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 6, 2005 -> 05:15 PM) Um, Jugger my browser already does that. I'm using my SBC Yahoo! DSL Browser and the only thing I have to put in again is my selections and the veri code. It doesn't ask for my email or zip code or if i want mail again. It's automatically in there. I have Netscape and it does the same thing.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jul 6, 2005 -> 03:42 PM) Don't be surprised if we lose though. You can blame me. I just didn't have time to work on the code. I have written an intuitive java program that tries to determine text characters in an image. It doesnt do so well deciphering images that contain zigs & zags like you commonly find in sign ups but it does a good job on the image you see next to the verification key. I didn't get the time to incorporate it in a bigger script that could automate the entire voting process. Basically one that incorporates the voting html, the flash movie, the deciphering function, fill in verification code, & submit. Then loop the script to run as fast as your bandwidth allows to submit votes continuously. I'm sure I'm not alone in this effort which makes me think a Yankee fan has already done it & spread it amongst his friends. I just wanted to warn you of that possibility. By all means keep voting! They had a guy on 670 yesterday that was from mlb.com and he said they throw out votes that use a computer program to cheat so I wouldnt advise doing that. Just vote the normal way otherwise your vote may not count.

Call me crazy but I agree with everything he said.

This thread sucks. Cant we just enjoy it while they are playing great baseball. This team is way better than the 03 Royals.

Im a little worried about Contreras and the Duke but I feel a little better having a stud like BMac waiting in the wings if one of those two or Garland falls.

No Brandon Mcarthy on the top 5 prospects.

How old is BMac. I heard 24 and 21 today. Which one is it?

I love that were getting no respect from these guys. Remember last time we got no respect we won the division in 2000.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Feb 25, 2005 -> 06:31 PM) Take it FWIW. Who knows who it could be. I'm gonna say Valdez or Ozuna. It cant be Valdez. He has much lighter skin.

Willie at short.No. Interesting they say Ozuna is the favorite. I would have thought Valdez would be the favorite. Can Valdez play third? I am curious to know what Ozunas minor league stats are.

Pods has had success in the majors. Willie hasnt.

If enough drop out I would like to join or maybe if we have enough interest we can start a 2nd keeper league.

Can we start another keeper league? It seems like we have plenty of interest.

Thanks Brian.I Like It

I would like a new sig with a picture of Ross Gload in it and if possible an IU (Indiana University) logo somewhere on it and my name on it. Thanks
