New front runner for Vlad???

From Gammons...
I was thinking the same thing. They also got Escobar if you remember. I'm sure they would trade one of their pitchers.(but remember this is Gammons) I hope KW can get Washburn. He's great in the clubhouse, can eat up innings and I heard he is good friends with Buerhle. Good rotation of Buerhle, Loaiza, Washburn, Perez? and Garland would be outstanding! (but hey I could dream.. )

Radio Interview with Jose..
I dunno about a great player, but a damn good one if you asked me. I totally agree. Let him play. Too many freak accidents has happened to him. He's still young, and can get on base with average range. Go A-Row, Reed, and the sox

Roger Clemens Returning?!
Here is the link Clemens Tells Friends He's Returning I don't know if it's for real, but he is probably considering a comeback. Go Roger and the STROS!!! Tame those cubbies.

Eddie George
What I like about Eddie George is that 1 statistic that no one has ever done since Jim Brown. (as a running back) he has NEVER MISSED AN NFL GAME. You can count on him to be out there everyday and give you pretty decent numbers. I would like to see Brock Forsey as our running back next year. For some reason, A-train dosen't excite me much.. All the rookies on the bears excite me. (Wade, Forsey, Grossy, Briggs, Tillman, Gage, Haynes etc..) I think the bears should build the future around these studs. Get rid of Terrell and White (who I absolutely hated cause he couldn't catch a beachball thrown deep) and build around Booker, Gage(grossy's favorite receiver) and Wade as recievers.

Good News for the Future
That's the thing I didn't like about Krause. He never keep his word on anything. I remember (and I know he regrets this) when he said he would never trade Elton Brand. He was supposedly had been the future of the bulls. He was going to build his team around him. He wound up dealing him anyway. The year after that, Brand is playing in the All-Star game. He is a very good player on the Clippers. If he would have kept brand, I think the bulls would have turned out better than they did. Now the fans have to wait a couple years until Chandler and Curry develop. Yes, he brought a Championship dynasty to the bulls. But he also brought stupidity and a bed rep. about himself as well. That's why the star players on that dynasty really didn't like him. And that's why FA's are not comming to the bulls because of him, and the bad reps. he has got from the players who played on his team.

New White/Red Sox Trade Rumor
I am happy he's here too. I don't think that KW would trade his best prospect for any team. (i'm sure alot of teams would want this stud.) I hope he dosen't turn into darrin erstad. (too injury-prone) didn't scouts compare him with kotsay? I can see reed hitting with some pop and drawing alot of walks when he gets up here. I hope he makes a good impression this year in spring training.

To those who had hoped for Denny Hocking...
The best free agent signing went to the Rockies!! I also see that Marlon Anderson is a cardinal now. (Just saw it on sportscenter now.) The free agent list is getting very thin now.
-
Maybe makin no moves this offseason is smart!!
Man I hope he is our next GM...
-
Brett Tomko
Could have been an ok 4th starter. He dosent excite me much though with that high era. But he eats up alot of innings. I would take anybody decent though, since we havent done much to bolster our starting pitching.
-
I just realized something about KC
That is kinda like the sox then. We already have a power offense. But lack of pitching. I hope this isn't the same plan for our team as well.

New White/Red Sox Trade Rumor
Yea, him and hs .250 averages every year..
-
Frank Thomas
About 1,300 of Paul Molitor's 3000 hits came as a DH. He alsoplayed about 3 or 4 more seasons because of the DH rule. Look where he is now.

New Cardinals Stadium
Metrodome is pretty much a hole with a rubber band for a center field. It's one of the worst stadiums I've ever seen. And Wrigley smells like cubbie urine..

Norton... You're The Greatest
Norton will fill alot on needs as far as his versitility. He also makes good contact. Your acting like if he was a willie harris type player. And we need as many fans as possible for this cheap bastard of a owner. I think he could bring alot of fans back here.

Good News for the Future
We'll only hate you if you are as cheap as reisdork. :fyou JR

Norton... You're The Greatest
I wouldn't mind having Norton here again. He actually gave the fans alot to cheer about when he was here because of hawk n wimpy always saying that line. I wouldn't mind at all going to a sox game and holding up a sign.."Norton..your da greatest."

Hot Stove Report from MLB.com
I agree about "shoey." I still don't think we have a hole at 1st. I don't see what's the big deal about thomas playing there. He played there most of his career with the sox, and even though he has little range, can still get get a ball here and there and his batting average is off the charts when he plays 1st. He wants to be in the infield and I think it would be a smart move. Then you can put lee at dh and put reed in lf..
-
Aubrey Huff
Theyve got some pretty decent pitching in the minors.(Brazelton (sp?) and others. Your right about the not catching up to the yank$ or bosox but they can surprise people (could make wild card.) They can always make trades as well in the future so you can't jusdge if they don't have the talent now. I guarantee though that they will be some kinda team uner sweet lou in the next couple years.
-
astros starting rotation
I dunno about that. But even if that happens, they still got a guy in the minors who's an absoulte stud I heard. They are still deeeeep.
-
Alomar Article
As hawk would say..."I love it when you analyze"
-
Aubrey Huff
Good signing by the D-rays. Young, had a breakout year for them. He should have made the all-star team. They can build their team around him and Baldelli (who is a stud!!) Look out for that team in the next 2-3 yrs.

Hot Stove Report from MLB.com
First off welcome abord. As a fellow newbie myself, I can relate. I agree, Danny wright has the same problems as cotts (even though cotts is a rookie) giving up the walks. That's why the sox want him in the bullpen. He has the stuff to be a very good bullpen pitcher. He just needs to trust his pitches and fine tune his stuff. If he continues to struggle, sending him to AAA to work on his mechanics won't hurt eigher.

astros starting rotation
I hope u were kidding about the stros having the best 1-5 in baseball. That will probably belong to the A's. Come on Zito, Mulder, Hudson, Redman, Harden. That's deeeeeep

Mo Vaughn
Whoops.. thank you for correcting that.
