  1. Eaton was the #73 prospect at the beginning of this year. I think this is a great pickup. A CF who can play defense, is fast, and should have a good OBP
  2. Here is the Adam Dunn video interview. http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago/white-sox/...eback-with-kruk
  3. Sorry to hear about your situation. I know there aren't really any comforting words someone could give right now. Just stay positive. Things do get easier. My son was born in December. He was named after my father who passed a few years ago. I've taken him to a couple sox games this year and nothing has made me happier as a baseball fan to take my son to a sox game just as my dad took me. So tragedy and happiness can come full circle. So keep your head up brother.
  4. I took my son to his first sox game this year too! He was only 5 months old though I'd suggest, like others have, to go in the upper deck in the shade.
  5. even though he is having a better season, he is not going to beat Yu
  6. Love the selection. Scanned the barcode of a fitted Sox hat selling for $39.99 and bought it on Amazon for $27
  7. Ozzie visits Lillie's Q quite often. http://www.lilliesq.com/ BTW, not a fan of the Map Room. Beer is overpriced, service sucks. There are a lot of good places to get good beer in that area. To name a few, Revolution and High Dive/Rocking Horse (same owners)
  8. almost, 1978. But my brother was probably conceived during it
  9. Well wish I could say the same. Today is my birthday. My dad passed away a year and a half ago. I spent part of the day at the cemetery with my brother and the other part with my friends who have lost their dads. Definitely, not a memorable day. At least the Sox won though.
  10. ah the Duke.. Its been a while.
  11. Names that come to mind Osuna definitely. Uh what a waste Koch. Eldred Ritchie Barcelo Brian freakin Daubach Paniagua (that 108 ERA for that one game pitched looks so pretty) Jon Rausch Joe Borchard Dewan Day
  12. You all need to chill about the comparisons. You both forget, they were both rookies. Its not like they have 5 years in the majors behind them. Heck, look how bad Beckham played at 3B this year, you aren't crucifying him! The bottom line isn't which player is better, its which player fits the team better. I always go back to when the Sox had Albert Belle when I talk about this stuff. Albert Belle probably had one of the single greatest White Sox player seasons ever. However, what a cancer to the team. The real issue with Nix, I feel, is you already have so many right handed power hitters/semi power hitters on this team. Assuming you get rid of Dye, you still have Konerko, Rios, Beckham, Ramirez, and Quentin. On top of that, if Pods leaves you only have 1, potentially 2 lefties on the team in AJ and Kotsay (assuming Kotsay even plays every day.) Then when AJ leaves, we'll have another RH in Flowers. We have gone through so many years of right handed power hitting teams. They generally don't work. You can like Nix all you want, you can say he is a better fielder (based on only 1 season which he didn't even play everyday) I am not sure you can say he is a better hitter. Getz was incredible for a rookie in situational hitting. But again, the real question is which player fits this Sox team better.
  13. yeah, my one loss was at Wrigley which they should have won. I flew out for the last game at the Metradome. Was very happy to see the big comeback off Nathan.
  14. 14 and 0 at the cell this year, 15 and 1 overall. don't worry guys going to the game tomorrow.
