Fick, Braves, Agree on One-Year deal
I'm with you on that. Liefer blows....Anyone see what he's hitting down in Winter League? I think its like .186 or something like that. Thats pathetic, especially for a guy who keeps saying he's a starter and is trying to prove something. So far, he's not proven a thing. I know some compare him to Klesko, but I always liked Klesko, their ain't much I like about Liefer. He does have immense power though, just watch the guy during bp, he can hammer the ball. His swing is way too long for sucess though, and the only pitch he really hits with power is the fastball.

Article: Colon Would Provide Sox with Final Pie
Excellent...I'd like to pick up one of those two. Part of me says, just maybe, the Sox are holding out for one of them. Why I think this, who knows.

Top 150 Prospects from RotoWorld
I would agree with that, but I like our depth in the outfield now and we do have quite a few talented 3rd baseman in the lower levels, while we have some talented middle infielders in Hummel (AAA), Guillermo Reyes (A), Edwin Yan (A), Willie Harris(AAA/Majors), Aaron Miles (AA - I don't consider him as big a prospect, but he could be one of those guys that comes out of nowhere in the majors). Catching is the one area were real thin, but we do have one of the top catching prospects in the game in Olivo, and well, most organizations are extremely week at catching. Webster, Jeremy Reed, and Borchard should all make the majors in the outfield, whether its with the Sox or some other team. The Cubs may be the one farm system with better pitching prospects with guys like Andy Sisco, etc. Altough its close, cause I love a lof of the Sox pitching prospects.

McGahee's knee injury
Rogers is going to be the 2nd pick by the Detroit Lions.

roosevelt colvin
I figured he would, that guy was huge and well...we suck at basketball. Remember how many airballs we had and how the girls team that was playing next too us, looked so much better. I still blame that double rim, I can't play on those things.

Ya, your are pretty damn good when you bs. Everything that comes out of your mouth is usually crap, but most of the time it ends up being right.

Dane Cook
Conan is real funny. I'm never really up that late, but when I am, he always gets me laughin. Cali..I'm gonna take your advice and go download some of his stuff. You, Ian, Mark have all told me how funny he is. I'm assuming he'll play at Improv or something like that and I'm going to look out and see if he's going to be at the one in my area any time soon. The only comedian I've seen is Pablo Fransisco and he's freakin hillarious.

Kelly Holcombe
Holcombe won't be going anywhere. The Browns are really high on this guy. I suggested a couple threads back going after Tim Couch who is expected to be available. Holcombe is a real good qb.

Colon at what price
Thats what I'm trying to figure out. THey keep saying this is almost a done deal, yet nowhere does it say what the Mets are giving to Montreal.

Sox Minor League Pitchers
In that case he's done, but I'll still watch him.

Top 150 Prospects from RotoWorld
I liked those reports. For those people out their that think our system is weaker, I got news, it isn't. I actually think we have a lot better prospects now then we did a couple years ago. Garland and Wells were good and all, but Rauch and Honel are way better, imo. Then we also have Malone whose got phenomenal potential and Diaz whose the same. We also have one of the deepest bullpen prospects in major league history.

dodgers for sale?????????
I'd love to make a few trades with Evans, imo, he is much worse then KW. How about picking up Odalis Perez for Danny Wright
-
Aaron Miles
Well, I may of not complained about supposedly losing him (I swear he signed elsewhere) but its good to have him here, because if Hummell isn't ready then I'd rather stick Miles up here and see what he can do, instead of rushing Hummell.

New Feature List
Lol, better make sure I spelled it right in the database section.

Colon at what price
I've been reading and wondering about this deal. So far It just don't make sense. What are the Mets offering to land Colon? We know Colon is going to go to the Mets and then Boston for Hillebrand but how exactly is he getting to New York. Hillebrand is way over-rated, and I'd say you could basically deal Colon for Lee straight up, thats if the Mets have any interest in Lee.

Fick, Braves, Agree on One-Year deal
I like the pickup. Fick is a really good offensive player and he's coming dirt cheap. He has power from the left hand side of the plate and can hit for avg. At that money he was a bargain. Its too bad Jr couldn't spare about 5 million cause we'd probably be able to get Cruz Jr., Robert Person and Ismael Valdes or Rick Helling.
-
Second String All-Star
Ya, but I also think the Sox spend more money on the draft then almost any other team in the majors. Their scouts are well paid and taken care of. Sometimes you just can't get a guy. That guy does sound good, but what would that extra 500k of cost the Sox? Plus, maybe they were already giving him real good money and it was to the point that the Sox had kept stepping up. The White Sox aren't what you call cheap when it comes to signing their picks.

What do you guys think of Sam Smiths Latest Trade
Eddy Curry and Jamaal Crawford to the Wiz for Kwame Brown? I'd definately do that deal. I think Brown is much better then Curry and although I like Crawford, this team needs just one pointguard, they can't continue to fight and argue. I guess the Wiz are sick of Brown and I think the Bulls are sick of Curry. Curry doesn't work hard, and has really been struggling.

Whatta game!
I'm a big TO fan and I like a bit of cockiness and swagger, but for pete sake him and Shockey both need an attitude adjustment. They are both phenomenal players, but eventually enough is enough and to the Giants fact, all those penalties and egoes pretty much cost them the game. Well, that mixed with shoddy special teams play, etc.

Numbers Support Sox
I haven't heard of any talks going on between the two teams.
