QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 07:21 AM) Did you ever bet on sports though? no i edited it to fix it....maybe thats a bit much if its 1 game and im filthy rich and have money to waste ill bet on it . Dont get me wrong I love gambling and playing poker but I just feel betting on something you have 0 control over is dumb.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 07:14 AM) i will make you a sig of Chris Young. A sig bet. lol but why would I want that I like my trio of Delmon Young, Felix Pie, and Ryan Sweeney And anyways this is baseball you really cant guarantee anything and a lot can happen in a season and I have never betted on sports and never will.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 06:55 AM) I will make a bet with anyone on this board that Contreras finishes the 06 season with more wins, IP, better ERA, more Complete Games, and less walks than Zambrano or Prior. What is an online bet worth to me?

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 06:42 AM) it was game over when those 2 guys came in. At least Flash is still a great pitcher. Yeah I was always a big fan of Gordon's.... I was so pissed when we lost him to the yanks Although didnt we get Gio Gonzalez because of that... or was that because of Colon?

The only pitcher you can make a case for having over those 2 is Buehrle.....And if he didnt mean so much to this team id take those 2 over him. Ask any non-homer baseball fan or hell major league scout or whatevr and they will tell you the same about Prior/Zambrano.

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Dec 1, 2005 -> 10:08 PM) good information. I know someone who knows another person whose seen Gathright plays and says he is a future allstar

QUOTE(GreatScott82 @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 06:40 AM) Seems like Ozzie's concern about BA's defense will drive KW to make a move for a CFer. But who? Its not like Pierre's defense is dominant... I really don't know what to expect going into 2006 Well Anderson is apposed to be good defensively and its funny how he praises Owens who is worse defensively..... Idonno if Ozzie even knows what he is talking about right now lol Whatevr though i trust KW and whatevr he decides to do.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 06:35 AM) please put down the bong right now. The question is if they could be our number 5's? None of those pitchers won 15 games this season. Half the time I dont know why i respond to your posts anymore..... Ok if wins matter so much than Garland is our best pitcher right? And Garland is better than Santana since he had 2 more wins... how about Clemens he must totally suck right he didnt get 15 wins. Zambrano is a stud...plain and simple and is under-rated and under-apreciated.... Although I hate when he grabs his balls all the time. Prior has had some injury problems lately but he works out a lot... our very own B-Mac has credited Prior for helping him some I think. And he has perfect mechanics so I think unlike Wood it has been more of a fluke than a trend. And when he has been healthy he has showed he is the real deal. Hell last season was an injury riddled one and he still performed pretty well.

she is trashy yes but she isnt ugly in most of those pics although seeing her up close I hate when people have freckles or whatevr all over their body still even cheap makeup could cover that up

Zambrano/Prior >>> Maddux.... heck they probably would both be our 1's.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 05:55 AM) Hafner plays 1B, Thomas DH's. I don't know what's so complicated about that? You don't think the Indians would put Broussard on the bench for Thomas? Cas if you don't, pass those rocks over here. You obviously havent seen Hafner play 1B

If they can they should sign Lofton and Furcal.... than if that trade is actually available to the Rangers do it. Id include Angel Guzman in it if it was neccesary..... Lofton Furcal Dlee Ramirez Soriano Mench Barrett Murton SP thats a great lineup... they could also trade for Pierre too but both work really. And while Im not a big fan of Eyre I think Howry is a great RP so they have a nice 8th/9th inning combo with Dempster. And while Wood is crap Prior/Zambrano are both legit aces and Maddux still pretty decent.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 05:34 AM) Well there is this "new' position that was introduced called DH. B4 being a smartass have you ever heard of Travis Hafner ..... and he cant play 1st at all complete butcher.

I know the Twins GM had a conference or something and he said they have no interest at all in Frank Thomas..... also where would he play in Cleveland?

There is still a long time until spring training and b4 the season starts so whatevr is being said now I could careless about. Nothing is set in stone and really its KW's final decision if Duque starts or not.

The phillies have a pretty good CF prospect so I wouldnt rule out Rowand being a yank.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 12:18 AM) You were saying? Well 2 pictures dont work so?

so JimH im curious what would you give up to get Pierre?

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 03:12 AM) he put up a 1.80 ERA in september and they hit .176 against him. You are right about Marte's ERA. It should've been a lot worse. Just look at the ALDS game 3. Also the Angels havent had a good lefty in their bullpen and they have always been good.... the last lefty of importance was Schoenweis and he isnt even that good.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 02:28 AM) Giving Munoz a shot as the last man out of the pen and replacing Marte with him as the 2nd lefty out of the pen are two totally different things. If we can't find a viable 2nd lefty for the pen, Marte should be retained. Last year Marte was horrible vs lefties hell Cotts is worse vs lefties than he is vs righties..... If it wasnt for the other guys in our bullpen Marte's era would of been in the 5's.... if he gets everything together is awesome but chances are he wont and if thats the case is he really all that better than Munoz?

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 02:08 AM) Damon is a better outfielder with his feet than Pods because of his jumps but neither scare you if you are tagging from third Well Manny is a bad fielder but his arm isnt that bad actually.... and as for Washburn im pretty sure there have been a lot of rumors of him going to the Brewers.

QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 02:07 AM) Your right... I don't know crap about our minor league system... I just don't see the point of getting all excited for the future superstars that never happen... If you dont know crap about it than why say stuff about it. Thats fine dont get all excited but dont go making dumb comments about it either

Idonno I wouldnt mind giving Munoz a shot... he would be the last man in the bullpen and he could go multiple innings at a time so it would be ok.... thats a course assuming we trade Marte.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Dec 2, 2005 -> 12:11 AM) For those who requested... he is ugly :banghead
