Neal Cotts
He kind of has 4 pitches because he varies speeds on all of his pitches a couple ways.

If I'm Einhorn...
I like Cotts quite a bit, so if I'm Einhorn I'd bring in a closer if possible. Its too bad the Sox couldn't of landed Benitez cause he really would of been nice along-side Marte and Gordon.

Jeremy Reed is ...
I'd think that the easiest to dump would be Frank Thomas, especially if he opts out of his contract or neither team accepts the option. I'd have to think if Frank puts the pressure on the Sox to accept the option, then Frank won't be a White Sox. He hit his milestone 2000th hit and 400th homer with the Sox and thats going to be it unless he's willing to realize he's no longer a 3 hole hitter and is willing to be in the 5 hole. If thats the case then you'd send Paul Konerko elsewhere (As both Paulie and Thomas are classic 5 hole hitters). The flaw with that is the Sox now have a need in the 3 hole, which could be filled by Miguel Tejada (Who could also go to the 4hole with Maggs in the 3 hole or even Carlos Lee there) with Reed and someone else at the top of the order. Then in the 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th slots you have a mix of Crede, (Our DH), Olivo, and whoever is playing in the infield.

So when are you going to go up on Open Mic Night and give your act a try?

The "Tough" Schedule Should Help
I know one thing...if the Sox make the playoffs they will have earned it cause they got a hard ass schedule ahead of them and the only way they will get in is by playing good baseball against the best teams.
-
Who would you choose as your ace?
Mark Prior. I also would love a healthy Pedro Martinez. If JR was the owner and he couldn't pay those two the money, Carlos Zambrono ranks pretty high up there with me.

A new forum should be created.
Momentum is meant to be changed. For a while the Sox had it, now the Twins have it and I'm sure its gonna change a few more times between now and then. The key is to play good baseball for the longest time and stay consistent. Sox have failed to do so thus far, but they are lucky...as the rest of the division has as well. Basically you can throw the season to date out and start things off fresh cause at 2 games back its basically like a fresh start for pretty much all of the 3 teams in the division.

does any body still have hope (3)
I have hope. They are playing like crap, but two games out is two games out.
-
Just a few thoughts....
I Think the attacks have been harsh. I'm sure most of it has to do with the Sox playing like crap. BUt I do need to add...that personal wars aren't to be handled here. This is the place to have fun talking Sox baseball as well as other things. Sure some people disagree, but we all are Sox fans and lets not forget that.

Twins/Royals game
Anyone else think that if the Twins win this, they may be the favorites in the Central at least at this point in time.

Jeremy Reed is ...
I agree with you. Economics of a few years ago are much different then they are now. I don't think Everett will be back, thats almost a guarantee. I also kind of think one of Thomas/Konerko will be gone.

Carl Everett From the TX Announcers
I've became a big Everett fan and I hope that deal didn't go for nothing.

Do yourselves a favor
I understand your view, but i also understand his. We have all the talent in the world and the drive to win of a team that just doesnt give a f***. He is frustrated, and i believe he should be allowed to vent those frustrations. Dont you? The guy has every right to be pissed off. The team is playing like crap (Once again) and they are doing it against bad teams. I'm sick and tired of seeing this team get up for the good teams but play like absolute crap against the bad ones.

The Lion, the Scarecrow or the Tin Man?
I'd say Brains. I say most of the everyday players play with heart.
