Freddy Garcia undergoes surgery Done forev...er... the season.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 03:57 PM) I'm confident my prediction of 68 wins will be fairly accurate. We'll see. Even though my number wasn't that far of yours I don't believe, but I can be mistaken.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 03:50 PM) I like people bumping threads as long as it's not in the"HAHA, told you so!!!111!!" way. ^^^^^^^^^ BTW, someone should bump the record predictions for this team when it's all said and done. See who came close to the win total.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 03:14 PM) A cop is useless to society 10+ years too late.

Hopefully we'll see Danks pitch a no-hitter in front of his friends and family.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 30, 2007 -> 12:00 AM) It does seem silly to give up on a 22 year old lefty who has been pretty close to league average for a majority of the season and has shown more than a few flashes of brilliance, maybe we can keep Danks around. Your very generous.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 11:51 PM) We're going to be in a similar situation next year as this one, where we'll have only two picks within the first 60 or so (depending on the number of sandwich picks). Resigning Dye and Buehrle has removed that possibility. I keep forgetting that we did that. IMO, Sweeney not developing might have cost the sox future plans of 2 sandwich picks for now and the future as far as prospect development. I didn't wanna see Dye here next season but unfortunitely we will.

QUOTE(WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 11:39 PM) What if he signs with Boras and the Sox don't take him? What if we end up with the 2008 version of Matt Bush? Sorry, I just can't root for my team to lose so they can gain a draft pick. Well I would like to see us evaluate other teams options for the draft in the winter considering I don't believe we'll get the #1 pick (IMO, we'll fall #2 or 3 on the list) and see what other future studs can be had. Hopefully we can actually draft a player most on the board (esp. spect experts here) can agree on and see how good our farm system can become now with this draft class of high picks we will have.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 11:35 PM) Give me MacDougal, Thornton, Logan, Danks from that list. ^^^^^^^^ Especially Logan and Danks.

Somehow, Heads is scaring the hell out of me when though were miles apart.

QUOTE(max power @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 11:16 PM) Did he even throw the ball? It was a short pop fly, right? It was a line drive but I think he either slipped trying to make the catch or he misread the drive causing him to drop down and catch the ball. I wouldn't have either bother throwing the ball he knows he can barely reach 2nd base yet alone home plate.

Owens noodle arm can't get it done.

QUOTE(max power @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 11:12 PM) This game would be over if that were pods, and that one dude could go to sleep. ^^^^^^^^^ It's actually good to see a LF who has an arm out there. Luckally we will hardly see Pods out there (damn near saw him anyway) the rest of the season.

Damn we were sooo close in losing.

Uribe has seriously pissed me off this year.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 10:53 PM) Did you really have that in mind when you said you didn't understand why people thought Anderson was crap and then a few posts later go on to say you don't like Richar even though he's putting up better (yet still bad) numbers through equal ABs? Guys who play at the collegiate level on average make it to the show with much fewer minor league ABs than guys who don't. Anderson/Richar were/are the same age as rookies. Not to mention Richar was what 16 when he started? It's not like he was in college. He actually had to learn to play the game year by year as a youngster.

Anyone wanna bet which inning we lose this in?

If Gavin pitches on the road (4.00 era), and pitches during the day (0.00 era 10 IP 1 R 0 Er 9 SO), He is unbeatable. (2-0) There, I solved the mystery.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 05:12 PM) Aren't you under arrest?

QUOTE(Dogfood22 @ Aug 29, 2007 -> 05:06 PM) I'd tell the players that whoever hits the ball up the middle or to the opposite field the most gets to sleep with Scott Podsednik's wife. I'd rather nail Adam Archuleta's girlfriend.

Seriously, geez could of been Combine/VT all over again. Glad to see everyone was okay. Much prayers going out to you Jake and everyone else involved. I'm sure it was a scary situation and I'm sure some people are alittle shaken up about it.

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 28, 2007 -> 04:12 PM) Unless a tox report confirms anything - which obviously it wont - you are posting libel comments. Try "I think he was drunk". Simple, yet effective. Even the Score and 1000 aren't stupid enough to say "He was definitley drunk". ^^^^^^^ From what I've heard from reports and from Lance himself, Briggs lost control of his car, obviously panicing call the toll truck, but didn't want it to be a big scene so he called the police (obviously stupid) and reported that his car was stolen. He's taking responsibility from it and he actually didn't have to come out to the media to talk either. Obviously we will hear about further information (intoxication/nightclub which is being repoted false/rumor at the moment) but from now it shouldn't be a dramatic story or blown out of porportion.

It's hard to sink in were in the top 3 of worst teams in baseball.

EDIT: B-Ham just lost in 11 I believe. The catcher blew the tag as Cook basically had him nailed. McCulloch was on the bump.

Charlotte lost 5-1 Masset 4.1 IP 8 H 5 R 3 ER 1 BB 2 SO Bourgeois 1-4, BB Sweeney, Collaro, Lucy 0-12, 4 SO combined Birmingham still in progress in actually listening to it now.
