QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 22, 2006 -> 09:32 PM) I did no such thing. Nah, we both clicked to replace it about the same time and it cauesd a php glitch. It was more because both of us were speedy (which is odd in my case since I'm usually slow as hell with this type of stuff).

QUOTE(JackTalkThai @ May 22, 2006 -> 07:02 PM) Justin Verlander is straight up filthy. Going on 15 scoreless innings (ERA is now 2.79) and kid was hitting 99 with ease on the gun in the 7th inning. He has absolutely unreal stuff....for anyone let alone a rookie. The only question is how many innings does his arm have in it this year. I don't think he's pitched many more than around 120 or so. Him and Bonderman are studs in the making. They got Zumaya who should develop into something special in the pen, Maroth IS solid (despite what people on ST think) and Rogers is still a crafty vet. Robertson is pitching way over his head as is most of there bullpen.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 22, 2006 -> 09:27 PM) Jake Peavy with 16 K in 7 innings, in line to get the loss. Braves reliever Ken Ray (of the sub 2 ERA) was a starter for Winston-Salem two years ago. Wasn't Ray like a teacher or something who went back to baseball or decided to go into baseball? I was thinking there was a special story that went along with Kenny Ray. I remember seeing him pitch a game I was there.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ May 22, 2006 -> 09:19 PM) I'm still not convinced that there is a single team in the entire National League that is anymore than decent. Maybe the Mets, but that is about it. However in 2 years, the Dodgers are going to be a f***ing b**** when their guys develop. Apparently the combined record of the NL West is better than the record of any other division. Don't quote me on that, but its according to my dad (as of yesterday). I don't think much of the West, but they have been a lot better this year than last. The Dodgers are a better team (hell they were solid last year, problem was they were/are full of injury prone guys). Giants are improved with Bonds (even if he isn't good anymore) and the Dbacks got better while the Pads stayed about the same. Don't ask me what the hell the Rocks did (make a deal with the devil???).

I had it up, but than you change the file name for whatever reason. I had to fix a php error in the process, so HAAA

QUOTE(Kalapse @ May 22, 2006 -> 09:28 PM) great news hopefully his slider is able to fool righties as well as it has in the past. Welcome mister ROOGY. Our team is considerably better now that Contreras replaced Logan and Nelson replaces Montero.

Merging this with the thread on Montero going down.

Considering Kenny has said that he was very impressed with him, mixed with the fact that he's reportedly on his way to Chicago, I figured its best to close this thread.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ May 22, 2006 -> 09:20 PM) I suck at life. Awesome...will get that up right now. Done and Done...thanks so much Kalapse.

Yep, Nelson on the way back to the majors.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:57 PM) Thing is Gage could remove it easily. Its on my list of things to do once I finish finals this week. Thats why its been up the past 2 weeks (now that we've gotten some more graphical ads as opposed to the text ones).

QUOTE(Linnwood @ May 22, 2006 -> 09:12 PM) Doug Eddings? :headshake Ya, the strike zone was terrible. Franks first home run was because Garland was getting absolutely hosed on the zone and had to throw Big Frank a get me over (to his credit, Frank hit it over the fence).

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:40 PM) LOL, the only guys that hate on Frank more than you are Nuke and Aboz. What's going on? I may hate on him, but I respect all that he's done in a Sox uni and he definately deserves being honored in one final Sox banner (with the next one being at either 500 HR's or retirement).

Sportscenter segment on the Sox/A's game starts with Kenny's comments calling Thomas an idiot.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:28 PM) Pssh, I wanted them to win but oh well. I'm just tired of your lack of baseball knowledge, YOU DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WAT A PERFECT GAME WAS. Its alright...better to lose to the Mavs than to lose to the eventual NBA Champion CLIPPERS

QUOTE(jphat007 @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:25 PM) LOLLOOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL Pablo is so awesome. The emotion he has whenever he makes a play is just incredible. What a great guy to have on our team! The Paco Martin of the 2000's

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:23 PM) This game couldn't have been written any better. As a White Sox fan first and also as a Frank fan, it'll take awhile to come off this baseball high. And the Frank hater that owns Soxtalk has put out an open invitation for a banner in honor of Frank for the rest of the series. How bout them apples for ya

Nice come from behind win. Apparently Garland battled through things and the Sox were able to overcome a great day at the plate by the Big Hurt with some late inning heroics and a sweet squeeze play by Pablo to win the game. Also, the site is about as packed as its been all season.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:19 PM) Pods is no where near the bunter that Pablo is. Pods doesn't bunt enough anymore. But Pods isn't as fast as Pablo either.

QUOTE(JimH @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:17 PM) Big win, Frank gets the HR he wanted, two actually, White Sox win. Couldn't be more perfect than that. And for them to win on a squeeze bunt on Frank Thomas' big day back, with Frank hitting two deep, wow do I find that ironic. Lets not forget Frank popping up when a sac fly would have given them a lead. Of course not knocking Frank, he played his best game in an A's uniform.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:16 PM) How about a Pablo Ozuna banner? Ozuna great tonight...but Frank is a legend and he deserves some honor on the Soxtalk banner since he's back.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:16 PM) He's only terrible on defense. He'd be a perfect DH....without the power. If Timo could DH, Pablo could. Plus Pablo would lead the world in hitting if he were playing every day.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:16 PM) Also...tremendous hustle by AJP going from first to third on that hit by Mackowiak. Yep, right when that ball hit off Scutaro's glove I was hoping AJ would be busting into 3rd. Job well done all around in that final inning. Man thats about as sweet of a way to win the game as anything. I love executing and thats why I'm a Pablo fan (even though I don't like the idea of him out on the field defensively late in a close ball game).

Ehhhh....finals do that to ya

QUOTE(JimH @ May 22, 2006 -> 08:14 PM) Not all of them. And to think If I were managing it would have been Pods up. Thats why Rock Raines or whoever replaced Ozzie (yet was simply doing what Ozzie told him) is wiser than me.
