I'm waiting for this to happen after the Yankee-Red Sox series

I say Cards v. BoSox. Cards in 6. Nothing better than pissing off Cub fans AND Yankee fans at the same time!!

NL Central showdown for the pennant. Then, it's BoSox v. Cardinals in the Series.

:fthecubs

Just think what Joe Borchard could do in a full season!!

When there is a tie for a Division Championship and the tied teams have the same record as a team having the better record of the second place teams in the other two divisions, the Division Championship tie shall be broken as follows: a. Tie among two teams for Division Championship with one team having the better record of the second place teams in the other two divisions. The League President shall conduct a coin flip to determine the site of a playoff game between the two teams tied for the Division Championship, the game to be played the day after the conclusion of the championship series. The winner of the game shall be declared Division Champion and the team with the better record of the second place teams in the other two divisions shall be declared the Wild Card team. :banghead Go Astros!!

Here's to you Buehrle-mon on a great season. Now try teaching your buddy Garland how to pitch consistantly!!

welcome aboard, this one's for you

Here's to you Jose. Good luck and a class act.

In his 20+ at bats, Wilson Valdez looks like he can handle Major League pitching and has made some good plays with the glove. I know it might be too early to judge him, but maybe he'll be a nice utility guy for us next year. Thoughts?

I'd love to see the Cardinals win the World Series. Their lineup is stacked and it'll piss off all the Cubs fans. I'd really like to see a Red Sox-Cardinals World Series. Loved to see how many runs are scored in that series!!

Currently Underrated-Rowand All Time Underrated - Lance Johnson 1 Dog

What about Escobar? Is this guy in the plans? Or is his injury going to keep him out next year, too. Otherwise, it will be very crowded out there will Everett, Lee, Perez, Blowchard, Rowand, Escobar.

Did we run out of green ink? GO SOX!!

Yay, the Tigers. This how the Sox at the Metrodome made me feel..... :sleep :sleep :sleep :banghead :banghead :puke :puke Hopefully, the Marlins left instructions on how to play baseball. Allright enough ranting GO SOX!!

We have enough damn power hitters. How about hitters who can bunt, get a sac fly when needed, play with fundamentals and play like they give a damn. Pretty much everything in this poll but power hitters. I'm tired of everyone swinging for the fences.

Crystal ball prediction: Santana K's 14 (It'll help if Jose and JoeBlowchard are playing) Twins 8, Sox 1. Sox 11 1/2 out There's still a chance!!

From today's Sun-Times: [Gload (.304) could make Konerko expendable September 13, 2004 BY DOUG PADILLA STAFF REPORTER ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Manager Ozzie Guillen wants a new look to his offense next season, and one solution to his needs could have been on the bench this whole time. Ross Gload's play in the series at Anaheim might get the Sox thinking about putting the contact hitter at first base next season and dealing Paul Konerko for an upgrade at shortstop or to find a replacement in right field for Magglio Ordonez, who is not expected to return. The Sox might even be thinking about finding a center fielder and moving Aaron Rowand to right field. Gload, who was the designated hitter Friday and played at first base Saturday and Sunday, went 6-for-13 in the series against the Angels with a home run and five RBI. Gload wouldn't come close to Konerko-type numbers over a season, but is as good at situational hitting as anybody on the Sox roster. ''The only bad thing about this kid is he never got the opportunity,'' Guillen said. ''He was a backup for Mark Grace [while in the Cubs organization], then he came here and Paul Konerko was playing. But if somebody gave him the chance to play, he's a good .270, .280 hitter with 70 RBI and 15-20 home runs. His defense makes him even better. He can play every day.'' If the Sox are sold on that option, Konerko would have to be dealt with offense in mind. ''I was given an opportunity and was lucky enough to win a bench job, and I think I've done my job at that,'' said Gload, who is batting .304 with four home runs and 33 RBI in 171 at-bats. ''I've just kind of hung back and taken the role of when the big guys need days off, hopefully just go in there and just help out or get something done.'' ''I want to be in the big leagues, but I don't know if I can play every day. My goal for this year was to be here the whole year and enjoy it. I've driven home the day after the season and been told [twice] that I'm being taken off the roster, so I take it day by day. ''If our good players come back next year there really isn't a place for me to play. But I'd like to be back and helping out in some way here.''] Thoughts?

Hoping for 8 of 11 Let's go Sox!!!

Freddy goes 6. Throws 90 pitches. Gives up 4 runs. Sox win 6-5. Hope my crystal ball still works. GO SOX

Let's make it 4 in a row. Go Sox!!

End of the inning. Going to the bottom of the 9th, 4-2 A's
