joe seems extremely late on his swings....

Crede needs to show he healthy eventually............. C'mon Joe.. you want to give it a go?

C'Mon AJ!!! 2 run double right here ...... C.C. is wearing down.

NICE AB LEXIE!!!

QUOTE(JFields27 @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 08:01 PM) how deep? like 6 feet under? hahaha yep thats what i meant!

Crede is going deep here.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 07:55 PM) Jesus, just sat down, what happened to Mark today? an error on a double play ball to OCab got MB frazzled. The ump also missed a few calls after that but MB just didnt have it today...

i hope Ozzie puts Pablo out there to pinch hit for Alexie next time around and then replace him defensively with BA.

c'mon alexie

there is pleanty of game left.... its far from over... yea that sucked badly but we still have 7 innings to catch up... as long as the ump misses those close calls for CC like he did for MB we have a chance.

wow didnt expect this at all... not a good way to start the season... yikes...

ump is squeezing him bad... not to make excuses or anything... he better call it both ways... lets stop the bleeding here.

QUOTE(G&T @ Mar 31, 2008 -> 07:02 PM) MB gets a few inches off the corner there. Yep! He starting to get those veteran calls

According to weather.com (Sox vs Tribe), Rain will be there by 6pm. Other than that its cloudy and temp should be 48-52 degrees by the start of the first pitch. It looks like they'll get the game in on time. This is great news for me because i took the day off work today. Yep got in late from Boston last night... maybe i brought back home that World Series luck just in time for the season. No more thinking about 2007... Time to make the sports writers and sceptics look stupid... time to believe that a new season can bring new magic... time to have fun in 2008! A new season, a new time to believe!

QUOTE(Brian @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 02:20 PM) While it sucks, I kind or understand the whole Crede/Fields thing. Fields should be playing everyday and not backing up. I'm just distraught that I have to watch Uribe bat for another year or however long he is here. Ugh. The only good news is. If Uribe once again gets off to a horrible start, Ramirez will be their waiting to take his job. Same goes for Crede if he bats .100 for the month of April, look for Fields to be up here by May. The one possitive about this situation is the Sox probably have the best defensive infield in the AL. Uribe is solid, Crede is amazing at 3rd, Konerko scoops everything at 1st and Cabrera just won the Gold Glove at SS. I am worried about the CF situation now that my boy JO is on the 15 day DL. But Brian Anderson deserves this oppurtunity to start in CF. Hell if he continues to hit during the regular season i would just have him be our leadoff hitter.

I wonder how many fans on here will actually give Crede a standing O on opening day?

QUOTE(JFields27 @ Mar 24, 2008 -> 05:14 PM) Great deal for the Tigers, and to some that thought Miggy would ever be wearing a Whitesox uniform sorry to hear that your dream that was slim to none to begin with it over. Josh Fields is better anyways. I figured I would throw it in the middle and then just write a lot of stuff after that comment to see if anyone will call me out on it. Anyways who wants to be locked in to Detroit for 8 years I would be asking out after 3-4 years. Detroit sucks and has probably the worst downtown. Ugly. Detroit may be ugly, but their lineup is scary as hell...

I just broke my finger 3 weeks ago and it still hurts and is healing slowly. It depends on his break, but it can take much longer than 2-3 weeks to heal. Also, Detroit is having some pitching problems this spring. Their bullpen isn't looking good, Willis is getting rocked, and who knows whats going to happen with Rogers and his health. Rumor has it that they are going after Hudson Street. THe problem is Detroit no longer has much of a farm after that Cabrera deal. You can have money, but if you no longer have a farm, its almost impossible to find starting pitching and bullpen help during the season. I hope the Sox take advantage of this.

QUOTE(fathom @ Mar 23, 2008 -> 07:01 PM) The chicagosports article stated Owens would bat 9th vs lefties......yuck! Im a big Owens fan... i think he'll be good this year. But i truly believe Anderson should be in the lineup vs Lefties...

http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=158968&src=162 I like Swisher at #3. Its probably going to be this lineup vs the lefties quit a bit this year: Ozuna 2b Cabrera SS Swisher LF Konerko 1b Thome Dh Dye Rf Pierzynski C Crede 3b Anderson Cf

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Mar 22, 2008 -> 10:40 PM) Dont let him tease you, he'll be swinging from his heels in a week. that may be true.. but you have to give the guy credit, he loses his SS job to Cabrera, doesnt b**** about it. Then he is waived.. but brought back. The dude has gone through a lot this spring but has kept it cool and is having one of the best Springs out of all the Sox players. Maybe a 'scare' to lose a starting job has driven a fire under his booteh. Keep the hitting coming Juan... We could use that come April.

From what i hear he is the 'next big thing'. That may be an over statement but at least we have a pitcher in our farmsystem to finally look forward to seeing kind of like McCarthy back in the day..

Just heard on the radio that Floyd pitched well... those of you who watched it can you elaborate... thank you.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Mar 21, 2008 -> 11:09 AM) Boo, you had me all excited we traded for Cain for a minute. If KW picked up Cain, this would have been his best offseason since becoming the GM. Unfortanatley the Giants are NOT going to let him go.

If Ramirez is the 'super-sub' who is the every day 2b, a broken down Richar? There is something fishy going on...
