I've hyped up Martinez for like two years now. Trammel is very underrated though. Those Tiger teams he had to manage were awful, and didn't get a fair shake (though it's been a while since I've seen him).

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 12:58 PM) There we go. We have now agreed on the dictionary definition of the term "Floor". I am content. Jesus...

King Kong.

QUOTE (Chi Town Sox @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 10:42 AM) Brandon Meriweather Outstanding player. Terrible baggage.

Wow we lost? LOL I turned off gameday considering Santos had it in the bag. That is hilarious. Ozzie, as usual, will wait till the sox are mathematically eliminated to play the kids consistently though.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 3, 2011 -> 08:48 AM) I truly am getting tired of Reinsdorf sticking his nose in there so much. He has pissed me off for years as an owner (Bulls and Sox) but like Ozzie, it's a love/hate thing. He obviously has his pros and cons as well.

Alexei.

Cheers man.

Happy Belated Rock.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Sep 3, 2011 -> 12:00 AM) After the season he has had, I can see him cracking some Top10 prospect lists, certainly top 15. Definitely top 10 on my personal list. Me and Cerb are in agreement he is probably the biggest sleeper in the system currently.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Sep 2, 2011 -> 08:31 AM) He could also DH. He done a lot of that this year. He hasn't missed a single game for W-S. You might be watching another light tower power next year!

Briggs, agent formally ask Bears for trade

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 1, 2011 -> 10:43 AM) What is it with Minnesota and morons on boats? http://www.startribune.com/local/128883138.html I found this more interesting. http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/ho...-128881848.html

Verlander. De Aza.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Sep 1, 2011 -> 10:20 PM) Like Goldstein said, always been able to bring it but never put it all together. Supposed to have a plus curve when it's on too. Needs control though his numbers have been better this year. His curve is sick. His fastball is outstanding, and he's one of my favorite prospects that I've hyped for like two years now. Was disappointing earlier, but has put together a good stretch. Hoping he can still put it together and have a crazy year next season in AAA. (I still follow up on how well his delivery is becomming more consistent so that is good.)

QUOTE (shlammajamma @ Sep 1, 2011 -> 10:17 AM) Guys, greg is obviously a troll.... There is no way somebody can be that unreasonable. Ozzie could kill a player and he'd find a reason to defend him. "You wouldn't commit murder with the team the sox have now? Kenny deserves just as much blame if not more." He has to be a troll. just ignore him. And comments like these generally are ridiculous. I'll leave it at that.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 1, 2011 -> 10:08 AM) well, um... Playoffs > no playoffs? Yep. Even management (and Buddy Bell) has said it's good to see young prospects get any kind of taste of a playoff atmosphere. Really any org. would tell you that.

I don't say this too often for players, and I hope the length isn't too long as RBs definitely have the shortest "life span" of all the positions in the NFL, but if there's one guy who I want to see get paid on that team, it's Forte. The guy didn't holdout for an extension like 95% of other players do. He played in camp and is playing in the pre-season. Hasn't said one word about contract talks unless a reporter keeps asking him about it (and usually he'll just say he leaves that to his agent anyway/wants to just play football and not talk about it) and has just been a pure professional through and through with fans, the media, management, etc and just bust his ass off. Pay the man.

This is only the beginning for you... the beginning of the end. Cheers to the big nark-like 5-0.

Outstanding. I will give you your props. I also hope you finally lose your virginity.

Kevan Smith moved up to 3rd in the batting order and rightfully so. Escobar with an 8 game hitting streak.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 31, 2011 -> 11:02 AM) Ozzie doesn't give a s*** about next year's team. He won't be here. Good point.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 31, 2011 -> 10:16 AM) Apparently Rios is a must start everyday. Plus he needs to be the cleanup hitter everyday too. He's just too good to leave on the bench. f*** DeAza. Hell even .250/.286/.250/.536 (last 7 days) Pierre he could have subbed for. I know Juan is a horse, but damn he won't be here next year. (I pray he isn't) Give what could be your leadoff man in 2012 some pub up there Ozzie.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 31, 2011 -> 10:36 AM) Did you miss the part where I said ONE MIGHT BE? I didn't. In fact.. I marked/Italic where you said it. And yes, many here would consider him (Saladino) one of the best prospects in our system. The other guys I agree with you, more filler types.
