Save Jimenez, the whole team wasn't hitting for the first month. That got us off to a not-so-great start. Colon has really been disappointing. He was supposed to be our ace, but he's barely been better than our #4, Jon Garland. Billy Koch, Gary Glover, and Rick White have been very disappointing overall. Our starting pitching has been good, but not good enough to be able to withstand a bullpen with an ERA of around 5. And just bad timing has had a lot to do with it. We've f***ed up a lot when it mattered most, and it has cost us several games that we VERY easily could have won. All of that said, if we win Tuesday, we'll be at .500. s*** i forgot about white as well.

where at wrigley?

lol, ok you got me on this one.

and you claim to be a sox fan, maybe you are a closet sCrUb fan all this time. :fthecubs

The trade was made for this yr... and on those terms kenny lost this trade. Long term...That f***ing geek foulke is leaving the A's after this year, and William Koch is here for two more years with a chance to regain his 2002 form. In addition to that we could have just added a front of the rotation starter who is a lefty. Unless Joe Valentine pans out to be pretty good... I think Kenny still come out the victor of the koch deal. all depends if we lost in the playoff b/c of a lack of a closer. cotts is good and i like him, but that comp pick could be a hell of a player. and that comp pick could be Scott Ruffcorn, Eddie Pearson, Mike Caruso, Corwin Malone....crap shoot it is, and I'd rather have proven players, then random chances. or they could be prior, wood, peavy, and some of the better know prospects. i would rather have foulke now and a chance to win now and take that crap shot at a comp pick. i don't know about you, but i am tired or waiting for tomorrow f*** yeah, me too...but I dont think that we have lost too many games based on the closer alone. There are SO many problems with this team, at least there were early in April and May. i neve said nothing about anything else, only those who was defending botch. that is how this came about.

whispering sweet nothings in my ear again.

again i say.. they didnt come in droves in 2000 they wont come now.. i just dont see it happening .. win or not....... we will see. yeah we will we havent had 2 mil in the stadium since about 93??? came close in 2000 with 1.9 but its still not over the 2 mil mark and i just dont feel we will ever have that again under jr...........new owner id be willing to bet they come out in your droves then.......... i am talking about now and until the end of the season. in the last 15 games, the attend is up compared to last yr, per the trib. i just want to see an improvement inthe attend. we all want to see an improvement but the trib foregot to mention that were about the same attendance wise as last year.....id be willing to bet they included the all star games in there as well............ actually i think they made the point of not adding the all star so ha

that is one, the clayton, the berry berry, well trade to name a few

Then give props to KW for getting Alomar and Everett, and Colon. Because at the end of the year...if they sign elsewhere... we get those 1st rnd picks as well. he is finally seeing the light in which the sCrubs, atl and oak has use the system to help them in farm i was and still am in favor of getting colon and gave my congrats to kw, until i read that the yank may have been the mastermind dehind the trade.

Thats it Murcie...long-term we are better off...cause Foulke is walking, hopefully someone can straighten out Koch, and Cotts has a potential future. and what about that comp pick>

now i remember hearing that people were mentioning their concerns of botch's arm. but kw did not listen as he did not listen to others who mention that clayton was a clubhouse cance, that dlo was a jerk in the clubhouse. so what does this tell you, kw doesn't not listen b/d he is all knowing.

Yeah, those were the intentions...but seemingly someone would have made sure Koch was healthy enough to actually do it. and whose fault is that?????????????????????

so, and then we would get a comp pick, but he would have help us this yr.

why we are in the state we are in? big frank not really hitting in the beginning, paulie not hitting, botch blowing saves, colon and buerle not pitching like they could, so am i missing something else, no one is putting all the blame on botch. imo oh and hot you hsc a weak ass hitting catcher.

that is the long term hopes, why was this trade made? again what did kw say he made this trade. answer to help us this yr, to solidify the bullpen this yr, to give us a closer that can come in and close the game.

listen good, ok, no one is doubting what you are saying and if you read this clearly you will see we are saying the same thing. we are saying that botch has not live up to what he was suppose to do, he may not come back to what he was once. in addition we are saying that kw got f***ed. ok.

you i bust 2 teeth last nite, and had an emergency appointment today, 3 1/2 hr in the densist chair, 2 root canal and a filling, hint, do not bite down on ribs bones. i am still in a lot of pain.

i wonder if kw got a big wet kiss after the trade?????????

again i say.. they didnt come in droves in 2000 they wont come now.. i just dont see it happening .. win or not....... we will see. yeah we will we havent had 2 mil in the stadium since about 93??? came close in 2000 with 1.9 but its still not over the 2 mil mark and i just dont feel we will ever have that again under jr...........new owner id be willing to bet they come out in your droves then.......... i am talking about now and until the end of the season. in the last 15 games, the attend is up compared to last yr, per the trib. i just want to see an improvement inthe attend.

the only problem i have with kw is that he is the sox gm.

zen like response, wow you are really out of it tonite.

who was suppose to be the closer? who was trade to be the closer.

again i say.. they didnt come in droves in 2000 they wont come now.. i just dont see it happening .. win or not....... we will see.
