QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 03:32 AM) Hottest rumor going around now is that the Bulls might be trading Tyson Chandler and Malik Allen to the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets for PJ Brown and JR Smith... http://www.talkbulls.com/forums/index.php?...t=0entry11461 P.J. Brown? Isn't he like 100? Smith? Isn't he a SF? Like we really need another one of those. Horrible deal for the Bulls.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 04:04 PM) Bmac has been pretty damn good as of late in the pen, he's definitely settled in. I do love your idea though, it's actually something the 5 of us talked about in Cinci a lot(trading one of our starters for a top notch reliever and getting Mac into the rotation). Wouldn't that be kinda bogus to throw B-mac into the rotation mid-season when he's just now settling into his role in the 'pen?

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:47 PM) Good point. When you trade a top 25 prospect in all of baseball, and are paying a guy close to $10 million bucks, you expect a little better than a 5.15 ERA. This is getting pathetic -- that pitch to Aramis was absolutely BRUTAL, Juan Pierre probably could've hit it out. Ditto his pitch to Ramirez in the first inning, breaking ball over the inner half of the plate. I'm willing to give Vazquez a little more time, as everybody can see he has pretty decent pure stuff. But, if this continues into his next couple starts, putting McCarthy in the rotation needs to be explored. Oh, and I'll puke if anybody points to Javy's eight wins as a measure of his 'success'.... ---------------- Boy, Jason, I'd be all over any move that brought over Scot Shields. The Sox could really use a dominant right-handed setup man... Tell 'em, Keith. Anytime I say something about Javier I'm just "overreacting."

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:39 PM) Yes, he has. He easts innings and keeps us in games. BMAC is more valuable as a set up man, and we have te 2nd best record in baseball. He's gone past the 6 inning 4 times this year. Two of those times came against the pathetic Royals. I'm not advocating moving him to the 'pen. But, for what we're paying him, combined with what we gave up to get him -- he's been a bust.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:35 PM) What makes you think that? Javy has been fine as a 5th starter? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ He has? We could've kept Duque if a 5.20 era is fine for a 5th starter. It sure would be a lot cheaper, and we could've kept Chris Young.

I'm gonna go check out northsidebaseball.com. This should be hilarious.

Best win of the year. Of course, I've said that about 5 times now. This team is relentless.

Best win of the year.

LMAO@LEE That curve was sick!

QUOTE(whitesoxin @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:25 PM) Weren't you the one saying it was over? You've been talking s*** about this team all day and I've been behind them all day. Anyways, a-f***ing-mazing. I was dancing around my room clapping, screaming, and calling Cubs fans pieces of s*** for 5 minutes straight. LOL. I never said it was over. And the only guy I've been roasting is Vazquez. Rightfully so.

QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:23 PM) A.J. is goign to need a body guard to leave the park today. They better not even think of touchin' my guy. I'll drive out to that s***hole myself and regulate.

QUOTE(sin city sox fan @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:22 PM) How much trash is on the field? Are they having to stop play to clean it all up? They had to stop play for a few minutes. It wasn't that bad. Just hilarious.

Oh my god. This is just too much. LMAO@those idiots in the bleachers.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:04 PM) Will win this game if Dusty goes with Dempster in the 9th. Did I call it or what? Give me my props, people.

LMAO@THE LOOK ON CUBS' FANS FACES

ROTFLMAO! OH MY f***ING GOD! AJ!

Let's do this s***, AJ!

LMAO@these moron Cubs fans on their feet, as if this games matters for them.

QUOTE(sin city sox fan @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:10 PM) For all those advocating that we bench BA, who do you propose we play in centerfield on a regular basis? I've got no problem doing this with an adequate replacement....but since we have no other great options at this time, we have to let BA continue working on his offensive production (unless Kenny is able to fleece another team out of a capable CF) Exactly. We're handcuffed because we don't have one guy on the roster that's capable of playing even a decent CF.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:07 PM) Vazquez was awful, but that doesn't excuse BA from killing us in two big offensive situations. You can't excuse not getting a bunt down in that situations. That is one of the things a hitter has to be able to do. This is definitely a game in which Anderson's bat (or lack of one) hurt us.

QUOTE(whitesoxin @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:04 PM) Which of these two scenarios is worse? a.) 1st and 2nd nobody out, well below average hitter fails to get a bunt down. B.) 1st and 2nd one out, one of the best hitters in the league grounds into a double play. Choice a is by far the worst.

QUOTE(whitesoxin @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:02 PM) So why is everyone so pessimistic? 2 down, Mabry up. Will win this game if Dusty goes with Dempster in the 9th.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:00 PM) No matter how good Anderson's defense is, it is tough to carry a .170 hitter that can't even bunt. No doubt about it. I've been one of Brian's biggest supporters (see my sig), but he's makes it really hard sometimes.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jul 1, 2006 -> 03:00 PM) Why are you so intimidated by Zambrano? We've hit him around before. Buehrle has been tough at NL parks. Well, this is gonna sound weird, but we always seem to lose to the Cubs on Sunday.

You would think a guy hitting .175 could atleast get a bunt down.
