Getting Valdez is fine, I mean thats about all the Sox could have gotten for Koch, but if your saving just 500k, is it really necessary to trade a pitcher with more talent than other relievers in your bullpen when its pretty clear this is "the year"

He's not a closer, fine, but he's a better 12th pitcher than Mike Jackson. Im trying to rethink my decision, but I just don't see how Kenny should be praised for making this deal, and how it helps this team for this season..

Cubs win, on the Michael Barrett 2 rbi double. Maybe Billy Koch should have gone back to Oakland for the closers role

2 on, 1 out. If Bradford can just get to Sosa, this game will be over.

bottom of the ninth, 1 out, man on first for Todd Walker...

A 26 year old short stop in his first year at triple a... Don't we already have a bad utility player that belongs in the minors in Kelly Dransfeldt?

I'd rather have Koch, cut Mike Jackson, save the same amount of money, and have a better mop-up reliever/12th pitcher.

Great Move Kenny! We trade a better reliever, get zero money leverage, a terrible player in return all the while continueing to watch Mike Jackson suck in mop-up duty. Personally, I'd rather pay that 500k and have a better mop-up man, but thats just me.

Vince Vaughn is absolutely hilarious. I can't get enough of how he presents himself, and how he turns a meaningless "Hello" into a really funny scene. I agree, more comedies starring Vince Vaughn please.

Anyone remember Lou guaranteeing Crawford would win a batting title in the next 3 seasons? That alone shows that Lou loves the kid, and with Lamar talking long term extension with Rocco and Carl's agents' gets me thinking that Carl Crawford will not be available, regardless of the deal offered. Keep Dreaming though I guess.

With Shaq making 32 million dollars, I dont think its possible that any trade like that could happen. Unless the Magic can have the Lakers pick up Hill, Howard, DeClerq, and all the other crap the Magic have.

Phil will come back with Memphis, only to realize he made a mistake once Paul Pierce lifts that Finals MVP trophy, and Ricky Davis is carrying that Championship trophy... All the while, Barry Bonds still worries about meaningless things and calls out Boston fans again, this time saying that Boston is "too classy" of a city.

If Gagne was just another pitcher, then the Yankees would have done something against him last night. Come on Kenny, what an idiot.

Personally, I think you take Carl Crawford out of that lead off spot that he could be a potential 25 home run hitter. He's got the talent and power to hit home runs, he's just not being "allowed" to showcase it in that leadoff spot.

I hadn't, oops.

oh by the way, 3-1 A's.

Anyone here Mulder when asked who he rooted for while growing up in Chicago?

I saw it last night, and thought it was pretty good. Nothing hysterical about it, but like Zoolander, alot of parts that made you laugh, but nothing that made you laugh hard. I think they overdid the Ben Stiller stupid thing for example that "touche" scene.

Go White Sox!

agreed.

and living up to Billy Koch' name

Have an awesome day, hopefully Arnie will give not only you, but us all a present. Also, your going to IU?

I'd take Carl Crawford in a second, and easily think the White Sox could muster up more than the Byrd & prospect offer the Phils are currently offering. Only thing is, Lamar has started looking into signing Baldelli, and Crawford long term, and "progress" has been made.

bad ass
