QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 1, 2005 -> 08:51 AM) they say death comes in 3s, right? Schiavo Perdue Pope The Pope hasn't died.........yet.

Perfect Chicago Baseball, Opening Day Weather! Let The Game(s) Begin!

This could have gone in many forums, but it involves the Sox.

They were obviously filling this out while Buehrle was still recovering. A respectable analysis.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 03:17 PM) I thought Restovich was gonna play third base for them...? You might be thinking of Terry Tiffee.

QUOTE(ottawa_sox @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 03:07 PM) Flyout to left. Politte retires the side. One thing I heard earlier was that Garcia was not 'popping' the catcher's glove. Hopefully he didn't care to. That would be fine if he didn't care to. Hopefully, he'll be popping it next Wednesday!

Glad we're playing a lot of the minor leaguers today. Are the regulars out of the game already?

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 02:30 PM) Hawk says he is the brother of Kenny Berry And that leads us to this question.... Who is Kenny Berry?

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 02:26 PM) Who is Lane Berry? Good question. I'm sure someone is researching him right now......

QUOTE(daa84 @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 02:09 PM) tim kurkijian will be on espn news sometime between 2-2:30 talking about teh twins and sox, ill let you know what he says....tho he is normally an idiot, maybe people still wanna know what hes gotta say Let me guess....Twins win the division? Just for kicks, I'll be interested in what he has to say. He not as bad as Gammons and Reynolds.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 02:12 PM) The Jays paid Koch almost a million dollars and then only gave him 4 chances? Wow. Somehow Schoeneweis is sticking with them. Is it because he's a lefty? Who knows. But 4 outings is hardly anything even for Krotch.

Go Oz. Although, it would've been even better if he called us "kids."

Heard about this on Howard Stern this morning. He was recently on the show. Only 37. Very sad. He was very funny. RIP.

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 12:21 PM) Isn't this game on earlier?? I thought its a 1:05 game?? You are correct. It's 1:05 CT.

QUOTE(poorme @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 11:45 AM) I saw something that had us at 82.5. the bookmakers are usually pretty accurate. I was there a few weeks ago and Caesar's had us at 83 wins. Imperial Palace had us at 84 wins, and Bellagio had us at 83 wins. Overall, we were picked to end up third. Behind Cleveland and Minnesota. It's easy money. They should win 83 games. If not, something is very wrong.

Never really watched Nightline, but I wish him luck.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Mar 31, 2005 -> 09:57 AM) I heard Contreras on Friday and Garland on Saturday. Garland vs. Victor Santos on Saturday. Not sure who Contreras is facing, maybe Capuano or Davis.

Final Cactus Notes: Next, we'll just be 90 miles from Comiskey!! Opening Day can't come soon enough.

Charles Johnson won't even play a game with the Red Sox. They already let him go. http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article...t=.jsp&c_id=mlb

We already knew this was going to happen. Not really news.

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Mar 30, 2005 -> 05:07 PM) I just read there was a tornado sighting in Joliet. I am in Rolling Meadows and will be heading home in about a half hour and it is pitch black out there with a good bit of fork lightening and a bit of thunder (more lightening though). This ride home should get interesting... :banghead Like you, I'm in Rolling Meadows. It's pouring/lightning/thundering sporadically. The sky was gray on my way home today. Just hope I don't have to take the dog out tonight.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Mar 30, 2005 -> 04:26 PM) Would you trade Contreras + Garland for Javier? I would. I'm praying both can put together solid 1st halfs so that trade will look enticing to the DBacks. The emergence of BMac makes both of them expendable in exchange for Javier. It's a solid $ dump for Zona & they get to mid rotation guys in return. Both should fit the mid rotation mold in the NL. Please, no more Vazquez trade talk! :banghead :banghead :banghead

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Mar 30, 2005 -> 04:21 PM) Bad day for Javier (3 HRs) but then again it's Arizona. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boxscore?gid=250330129 ChiSox 13R, 15H. Zona 0R, 2H ............ ChiSox HR CE(6), PK(4), JC(2), AR(5) I'd still take Javier over El Duque, Conteras, & Garland. He's pitching like Contreras today!

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Mar 30, 2005 -> 04:12 PM) The score: 13-0 Sox The good: Konerko, Everett, Rowand and Crede with homers. 2 hits off Sox pitching today. The bad: Diamondbacks pitching The ugly: Chris Widger. He is an ugly man. It's the Fu-Manchu that makes him look in his 50's.
