Lorenzo Barcelo also came out of the Giants system and was a true stud. Now he's a stud no where but....wait a second. He's not a stud anymore. I hope Diaz isn't that kind of stud....he's had injury problems in the past. Well he has the potential to be the same. Barcelo is having a good season down in the Winter Leauges. A report on that should be on the main page tomorrow or Wednesday. We have it done, but are holding it off until the seasons officially end.

Well, if you check off that button that says log me in always or something like that, then you shouldn't have to login everytime you go to the board. I know thats how it works for me. Its just saved in my cookies.

Nah... Liefer just figured out that he really sucks. I'm with ya on that.

Sox Inch Closer to Colon as Market Dies By Mario Scalise Date: January 13, 2003

Never. Liefer really has stunk it up down their. I think he's forgetting he is a power hitter.

Alex, you got to tell me these things. Anyone else having this sort of trouble?

Lol, Ya, Mike, I'll help ya with that when I get home. I'll hook up with ya on aim.

Ya, he went to the Giants. Of course for every trade like that, their is also the great one he made where we moved Lofton for Felix Diaz, who is a true stud.

I"m assuming he's talking about JR. JR JR JR, you SUCK!!!!!!!!!

Ya, I've been hearing that too. It would be super sweet if Palmer fell to the Bears.

They are playing good, but they will have to go through Sacremento and the Mavericks to get them and they wont' have home court advantage. BOOOH LAKERS

Well I think the fact that he graduated early shows that he's more mature and gives them more reason to try him as an adult. The key is its a first offense and the question is whether he had the intent to sell it. If he was gonna sell it, he's screwed plain and simple, or thats my take on the situation. Lol, Kark, I love the Nate Newton analysis.

Saturday at 6 am.

Ya, thats Clement all right. One thing for sure is the station is heavily biased as of now towards White sox news.

The guy was super small too. It would be like Kenny Lofton on steroids

I don't like him as much as Colon, but I see reasons to get him instead of Colon, namely money. Penny has fantastic stuff, and his questionmark arm could let him come CHEAP!

Thats for sure, no way would they add 20 million on. They are really hard pressed to add on 8. The Sox can't possibly do this deal if we get Tatis, of course if we take on Tatis, then I'd say its basically Brian West and a mid level prospect for Colon, cause the Expos would just be super happy they dumped all that payroll. Maybe JR is talking to Bud about ways he can help the Expos out and get a little extra cash from the new collective bargaining agreement.

Nope...states love putting drug offenders in jail. 420, be careful what ya do and make sure you never sell the stuff. I'm far from a lawyer, but it just don't pay, imho.

I've been thinking the same thing Cerb. I notice how many innings he's pitched as a reliever and the Sox must be trying to stretch that arm out. Typically relievers don't throw a combined 110 innings or so in one season.

An Anti Government strike has led to the Valenzualan Winter League being cancelled. For more on the story go here http://espn.go.com/mlb/news/2003/0113/1491862.html I don't think the Sox had any players in this league.

http://espn.go.com/gammons/s/2003/0110/1490399.html Its real interesting to see that. I'd like to take a chance on Penny. Maybe the Marlins think their is no interest in him because of this latest scare and you could take on a pitcher thats got loads of potential and is very young and extremely cheap (YA JR, CHEAP!!!!) for a small price, maybe Matt Ginter, Brian West, and a PTBNL or Josh Paul. Of course, more will be known when he has his latest MRI.

Why?

I will pitch for some porn, a PS2, and some Mountain Dew. During last year's season ticket holder party I stood behind second base and hit huge's glove on a fly as he stood on the warning track in left-center field. I'm working on dropping 30 lbs. before my team's season starts. Last year I still had some good stuff, but my fat-ass wilted in the heat and I fell apart after 3 innings. My 36-year-old arm has something left in it. Well, 3 innings, thats not much difference from what Parque could go after his surgery. You aren't left handed are ya?

I'd definately bring him in on a minor league contract and I'd also sign him for like 500k to 750 k. The way he played last year he should be willing to play with the Sox for basically free I think he's a much better pitcher then he showed, but I also don't see him coming back. It seems like KW is simply admitting his mistake and moving on, which is something I like to see a whole lot of out of a general manager.

I don't know. Its real hard to plan a trade to the exact date. Plus, if they want him, then get him now, its that simple. No point in standing around waiting and waiting. I don't think his value could get any lower then it currently is. Maybe JR (Since he's part of the comittee) knows things that we do not and that he'll basically have to be given up for free once a certain date comes and then he'll have KW go in and make the move.
