Now lets lock him up long term. Mark, not the baby...although if he's as talented as his son..they could work out a package deal

Ya, when I actually buy a CD (I only buy smaller label Cd's because I figure they need the support) I always go to target. They have the best prices.

Julio Lugo
The sad thing is she'll get beat again and she'll continue to stay with him. I swear, I don't know what it is, but common sense just doesn't reign in relationships I guess. If a guy is that big of an ass to kick the crap out of you, then why do you ever go back? And why do they think its going to work out.

I'd of traded Koch for Benitez.

20th anniversary of the NES
NCAA Football 2004. I just got it yesterday and it kicks major ass. The graphics, the gameplay, the depth of dynasty mode it's all ridiculously good. Buy NES games if you have money left over; I went through this NES stage last summer and it lasted about a week. All right, thanks for the advice. I was gonna get it eventually anyways. I think I'm gonna pick it up tonight.

Possible Acquisitions for the Sox
And then the Sox have to wait another couple years to win. I'm sick of waiting and I'm sick of potential to a point. To me if the Sox move guys it should be to get younger, more talented position players that would give the Sox a different look. I love most of our pitching staff and would like to cut salary to sign a few position players and some power relievers in the offseason as well as acquire some via trade.

Possible Acquisitions for the Sox
While I like Peavy and Perez a lot (Namely Peavy) you don't trade a 23 year old ace for guys that could turn into aces. Its so rare for a pitcher to live up to their hype and projections. While I think Peavy can its not worth dealing. The Sox have Buehrle for a fwe more years and I'm sure they can work something out. Afterall the two sides were really close this offseason.

Alomar- Kitty Day at the Ballpark (Tigers YNOT)
1) Who will win the series (CHW/DET/Split) (2 points) - Sox 2) Will Konerko have a multi-hit game on his bobblehead day (Friday) (Y/N) (2 points) - Yes 3) How many errors will the Sox make (4 points) - 1 4) Who will lead the Sox in OBP for the series (4 points) - Alomar 5) How many hits will Joe Crede have for the series (5 points) - 5 6) What will Magglio's batting average be after the series (.003 either way) (5 points) - 7) How many appearances will Billy Koch make in the series (4 points) - 2 8) Will Flash Gordon get a save (Y/N) (2 points) - Y 9) Will the Sox be in second place after the series (Y/N) (2 points) - Y 10) Will a Detroit starter get a win (Y/N) (2 points) - N TIEBREAKER: How many total pitches will Sox starters throw - 400- Twins fans unhappy with Stewart trade
Your right on the trade analysis. In fact both teams need better pitching and rumors were flying that the Jays would trade Stewart for pitching. Looks like kind of a wash as far as stats are concerned but Kielty is a switch hitter. Well Kielty is a long term solution in Toronto. I'm also guessing if they want to turn around and get a pitcher that they may have something good to offer the Sox for Bartolo Colon if the Sox fall out of conention.- HOW much times have you used sunblock this summer?
No Propane and Propane Accesories- Possible Acquisitions for the Sox
Sidney Ponson and if they can a reliever as well. If we blow things up, Juan Cruz is one guy I really want. I'd also want Ponson anyway and keep him long term.- Sox sign: Burke, Morales, Loaiza, Heredia, Cooper,
Yep, Baggs was the one who opened his mouth. I thought maybe it would of been me, but I thought he'd add depth.- Twins fans unhappy with Stewart trade
It made no sense to me. They have a really good group of outfielders. What that team needs is some much better pitching. Now that they have Shannon Stewart, does that mean we could acquire Jacque Jones? He could play center for the Sox.- Pirates want the farm from Cubs
I can't say whether the Sox got hosed in the Everett deal or not, not until I see who exactly goes. I really dont' mind losing Webster, Yan or Diaz. The guys I don't want to lose are Pacheco and Rupe. Also, the big reason I'm proponing this trade is cause the Sox would really be ready next year and with Jerry Manuel managing I don't have any faith that the Sox can do it this year. I know the team, on paper, is damn good, but thats it. They've been good on paper all season, even before Alomar and Everett joined, and what has that meant on the field, nothing. Sox should play this thing up if they aren't over .500 and playing ver good by July 27th or 28th. Thats my deadline for things. I wanted Manuel gone at the break and a new manager given 10 or so games to show whether he could get this team playing at the level it is capable of. If they don't, then see ya later Colon, Alomar, Everett, Carlos, Frank (If someone takes him). I'd hold Konerko unless there was an offer from a team willing to pay his entire salary. I'd also deal Koch and Gordon cause they won't be back next year. I'd completely overhaul this team. If I didn't get a good offer, I'd just let the player walk for draft pick compensation. The taem would still have damn good pitching with Buehrle, Elo, and Garland aboard. It would also have a ton of money to spend on guys (Like getting a good shortstop; Matsui or Tejada). Pitching is what wins and this team has a lot of those pieces. Blow up a lot of the offense and rebuild guys around it.- Pirates want the farm from Cubs
Buehrle is untouchable, imo. He is underpaid, extremely young, and talented. Best young lefty in the majors, maybe. Zito, Mulder, Buehrle hands down. Now I'd love to get Mulder back to Chicago and team him up with Buehrle.- JR corrects his "GM"?
Interesting to hear that cut payroll line. They weren't direct quotes though, but if thats the case I think KW has a date in mind of deciding whether the Sox are buyers or sellers. Thus far after seeing some of the trades go down, this year looks like you can get good value selling and you can also do good buying if your willing to take on payroll.- Pirates want the farm from Cubs
i hate to say this, but their farm sytem of players are a little better then ours at this moment. As of now, that's questionable. A dozen or so of their pitching prospects have injuries. I'm not high on Pie at all, makes me shudder when a scout says "5 tool talent". More often than not, they're wrong. Pie has incredible hype, but until he puts the numbers to back it up at a higher level, I'll hold judgement. I feel the same way about Anthony Webster. Cruz and Wellmeyer are two guys I'd want. I also think Kelton would be a really good pickup for an AL team. He's a very good athlete and could play LF/DH and play left field very well, imo. He could also play first. If the Sox are out of it, get on the horn and try to give them Everett (To play center) and give them Alomar for 2nd. Ask for Cruz and Kelton and i'd be happy. Cruz is way better then Ring and Kelton to me is more advanced then anyone we gave up in the Everett deal. I'd also try to get Wellmeyer or Beltran and see what they'd say. Insert Cruz into the rotation, Kelton into left to replace one of our outfielders (They are working him in center right now; The Cubs) and Wellmeyer or Beltran as relievers with closer potential. We get two power arms and a guy that could develop into a .300 plus hitter. I'd see Kelton filling out real nice in the two hole.- Pirates want the farm from Cubs
Not bad by the Pirates GM. Cubs are in a pretty desperate situation so give them high stakes and hope they call back with a bit lower offer thats still damn good. Damn, hearing that offer, I'd be more then willing to move a few of our guys that could help the Cubs for all those prospects.- Nachreiner Destroyed
Its a chronic problem and basically he was told a few years ago that he wouldn't be able to pitch. He has kept pitching and the Sox took a chance on him because of all the advances in modern medicine.- Another story comparing USCF to Wrigley
jas all of the boxes but one are sold.. the one belongs to com ed and is free to them for exchange of power supplied to the park for free from the substation which is on the comiskey grounds........other than that the other boxes are sold out each and every year.........thats in the stockholders reports.... If thats the case you can't really doubt that they are a sucess from a financial standpoint. I think the big thing of this renovation has to be to fix the upperdeck and maybe find a way to have a homer porch, but just a small one. I really like having open stadiums in the outfield. - The Car Thread
