QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Sep 7, 2010 -> 08:44 PM) Gotta come back and get the last two. And hope the Twins lose one... Yes. . thats a must now! We NEED that game back. Being 4.5 games back with 24 to go is not that good of a situation.

Give him a week off and see how it progresses. Thank goodness its September and we have guys on the bench. I would definitley like to see Morel a few times.

As long as we continue to play good ball anything can happen. My hope is to head into that series vs the Twins 2 games back.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 2, 2010 -> 02:16 AM) Logic would also suggest the Tigers win more than 1/9 at Minnesota. That's hard for even the White Sox to pull off against the Twins. The Tigers will win today. The Rangers will win 2 of 3 and we will win 2 of 3 @ Boston. I said it before, my hope is to head into the Minnesota series down at LEAST 2.5 games. I think we match up pretty well vs Boston, while Minnesota doesn't match up too well vs Texas. This maybe our only opportunity to gain ground until we play them in that pivital series.

Hopefully the Tigers can find a way to win today.

Now you can enjoy this more! I'll post it again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFucYoAq_YU

THis is great news!! Our offense just got immediatley better with his presence alone. I could hear the chants now in a clutch situation late in the game, "MAN-NY MAN-NY"

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 05:39 PM) A Manny fueled 25-5 run would be awesome starting now I would take 22-10 to finish out the year!

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 05:17 PM) still 4.5 gms out way to hold it down mariners good! my hope of being 2.5 games back heading into that Minny series is still very possible now! Lets take care of the Tribe one game at a time. Manny better be headed their as well. Lets make this a September to remember. August sucks, lets move on and put pressure on those Twinkies!!!

Minny plays Detroit next. Detroit really has been playing pretty good ball lately. We play Cleveland. Its time to WAKE up vs the bottom feeders. There are 32 games left. Hopefully Seattle can hang on and help us out. We can't keep pissing away these opportunities. My hope is to go into that Minny series trailing 2.5 games which is still very possible! So yes I STILL want Manny!

yea. . this dude will help us if this thing gets done. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFucYoAq_YU

http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/news/artic...sp&c_id=cws We approach the final hour! We will decide who wins the waiver claim tommorow.

Lets win a series tonight! Get Manny Tommorow!

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 12:20 PM) The Sun Times reported that Manny has been claimed by the Sox. But that was early this morning. Sounds like speculation at best? Hmmm. . .

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 26, 2010 -> 11:00 AM) Buster_ESPN Manny may have played his last game for L.A. Not in lineup today (day game after night game),and we'll know Friday mid-day about waiver sit. I sure as hell hope they tentatively agreed on a deal. I don't buy that whole Manny demanding a 1 year extension stuff. Last year we pretty much gave the Dodgers Thome for the stretch run. The Dodgers were pretty kind in the Pierre deal as well. Both teams share the same spring training facility as well. Its safe to say they have an outstanding business relationship. Unless some NL team swoops in for him, I'll be shocked if Manny isn't dealt to the White Sox tommorow.

The fact that everyone is saying pretty good things about Manny means that this thing isn't a pipe dream. In fact it may be close to happening! If it was a pipe dream, Ozzie would come out saying stuff like "Manny isn't coming here" or "I only worry about my 25 guys". And KW would say "Where do you guys get this stuff?" Obviously this thing has some truth to it and Rosenthal is on top of it

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 06:13 PM) Latest on Manny from SunTimes. My favorite quote in that article was "listen, im a byproduct of someone giving me a second chance. . " It sounds like KW isn't afraid of that PED cloud hanging over his head. I love the White Sox motto: Forgive, Forget and Move On. I can't wait to see Manny in a Sox uniform!

Its sounding more and more that it will be official.

Via Cowley Twitter:

Fuentes would help us. Abreu. . no.

QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 02:15 PM) As it exciting as it would be for this team to add Manny, it won't mean anything if the pitching staff doesn't get their s*** together (especially the bullpen). agreed. hopefully our starters can go deep the next few games. 3 days off w/o a lot of pen work would do wonders for the guys.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 12:01 PM) I believe this says it best: @FakeJoeCowley - I hope Manny has a good pitching arm. @Ken_Rosenthal @cst_sox that is pretty funny. but if you look at the Twins, they just outslug everyone to death with decent pitching here and there. Maybe we can go back to that route.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 11:57 AM) Manny Ramirez cemented his legacy in 2009 when he got caught. ARod also got caught last year and ended being a World Series champion. I could careless about individual legacies here. . We are trying to make the playoffs.

This would be a great seller on the southside. "Come watch Manny in a White Sox uniform try to help propel them into the playoffs!" IMO they would sell a lot more tickets!

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 24, 2010 -> 11:53 AM) how do you know? names are leaked, but never released. He could be on waivers for all we know yep. Buster Olney mentioned earlier this morning that he can go waivers as soon as today if not tommorow for sure. For all we know, the Dodger placed him on Waivers today.
