QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 02:36 PM) Lilli goes 3 for 4 with 2 doubles tonight. And has 2 misplays out in center field sending soxtalk in a confused state of loving and hating him.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 02:32 PM) IlliniKrush and snb This. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 6, 2010 -> 02:55 PM) The wifey and friends know about this place. I would hope so... You are THE CREATA!!!

Viciedo is "suppose" to play 2/3 games in this series. We'll see Ozzie.

Hawks might be looking at Tim Kennedy as well. Solid LW (and can play some center), very young (24 yrs), and Patrick Kane's BFF (same hometown). I've seen comparisons to Versteeg. (small guy, but hits) May not have as much offensive upside as Kris, but is better defensively supposedly. Might be a nice pickup for the third 'grit' line. Brouwer-Toews-Kane Stalberg-Sharp-Hossa Kennedy-Bolland-Skille Bickell-Dowell-Kopecky Though Q shuffles people around anyways.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 10:09 PM) If anyone cares, tomorrow will be the day stuff does or doesn't happen. So there ya go. Is that when your softball game is?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 10:57 PM) We are coming, my friend... Hey, if the catwalk in their stadium continues to screw over Tampa, then I'm all for it. QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 10:58 PM) Well how many more times do they play each other? 7 more times. And that won't be till mid September. On the flip side, we play Minnesota 9 more times.

I still see no way the WC isn't going to Tampa Bay or the Yankees. Whomever doesn't win that division.

I honestly don't blame him one bit.

Don't know if it's because of the pitching coach (perhaps something altered mechanically) or maybe cause his stuff translates better in higher levels (that does happen at times with hitters or/and pitchers) but Leesman has been much better in AA than he was in single A. Still not completely sold yet, but he has held his own. Dusty Harvard had himself a night.. and so did Great Falls.

Knicks to sign Roger Mason. Isola twitter. Knicks have done very well this off-season all things considered.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 01:01 PM) Watch Viciedo play only one. Almost banking on it.

I would have never expected this from Freddy. He has been very solid this year.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 07:08 AM) No matter what BABIP says, I don't buy that Swisher was unlucky in 2008, and I don't buy that Kotsay is unlucky now. Weak popups to the 2b and weak groundouts to the 2b sometimes don't just happen by chance. You obviously don't remember his 2008 year. And as for not starting Viciedo.. no idea why he didn't or changed his mind. Yea... he still started him in back to backs and in a day game. Same with Jenks "stripped of his closer duties", people should really take what Ozzie says with a huge grain of salt.

Viciedo.

Viciedo will probably play today at 3B. Vizquel likely the day off.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 10:52 PM) Why? Did Kotsay allow him to play tomorrow? Or is Kotsay going to DH, and Viciedo will play 3B? Viciedo 3B it looks like. Vizquel will finally get a day off.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 11:49 PM) Oh you are so full of crap, Ger.... Haha, I knew that would get a rise out of you Mark.

I find it funny he said this, yet ripped Nick Swisher when he was here for almost the same thing. (clubhouse stuff didn't come out till after he was traded and I still don't even buy all of that) You wanna talk about "luck" Ozzie? Swisher had the worst luck in a season that I've ever seen a white sox hitter have in quite some time, yet you had no trouble keeping it real with him sucking. On another note, looks like Dayan WILL PLAY tomorrow.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 11:13 PM) If that was the case, someone would have claimed him out of spite, just to screw over Rizzo. You know he won't let him go for nothing, so you put in the claim, just to make sure he can't trade him. Yea but he can easily just pull him back. The Nats are still trying to resign this guy, and they won't lose him for nothing. They will gladly take the Type A picks and move on if it came to that. They have been trying to re-sign him for a while.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 04:59 PM) And there is no way, if she likes him, that she would be scared or worried or think he's desperate for getting those digits and sending a simple text like shack described above. But I could see her getting awful irritated if he waited. She could be like, dude, we did this and chatted about this (which you don't remember) and now he's just stood me up. See this is what I meant before with soxtalk posters (the guys especially) over analyzing stuff. I mean it's a simple formula. Row, you can take advice from people here, but in reality, you just need the experience. Speaking from your shoes, I did the same thing Rock suggested when I was very young (many times) and let me just say it didn't turn out so well (it honestly never does, except for very certain situations). Guys can't think like a woman (we never will) but you have to know the inside outs. Now I don't try (or even wanna try, nobody is perfect) and act like I'm the love master, hitch or a giggalo, but I know damn well how to do certain situations even if some people see it as "a game." Now if you really need another brain to pick on privately, shoot me a PM Rowand, and I'll give some insight. I can even see here on this board who I know are pretty good on advise, cause of their experience on situations. People have their own ways of course, and the best ones you will hardly, if ever, see them asking for advise in a thread (obviously) or giving advise all the time (at times, good to hear, but I wouldn't bank on them). My two cents.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 04:58 PM) Darn you women!!! I don't have time for these games! Experience bro. Have alot of it over the years.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 08:06 PM) picked this up from motownsports.com ....who knows if its true...."Dickerson on radio with the claim the Dunn has cleared waivers...." I wonder from what I've heard is true about teams not wanting to even deal with Rizzo in discussions anymore...

One thing everyone knows about Jackson... he always had the arm. Only one walk (last hitter.. and it was Miguel Cabrera who you can't even argue to not walk) is fantastic for him.

Rios.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 01:43 PM) Ask one of your mutual friends for her number. Not only will you get it, but she will hear you asked for it and went the extra mile. Meh.. that'll just make me (and maybe even her seeing it) feel desperate actually. I'm too cool for that. If I was in his shoes, I'd just wait till the softball game, talk to her face to face and get the digits. But... I play it cool mamas.
