QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 09:36 AM) Last night other than the Timo move was not an issue. It is the Shawn Chacon, Mike Mussina (his ERA was 4) this isn't Mussina circa 1997 here, Gil Meche, Josh Towers, Kyle Lohse, Aaron Small, Wade Miller, Hideo Nomo, games where we have no chance that gets me. These are games where it appeared over before it began. Although we were throughly dominated for 17 innings by Santana. I understand he is good but come on. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If i'm not mistaken since Shawn Chacon has come to the Yanks he has been nothing short of great for them.. All of those guys you listed have some talent and most have had success in the past at one point or another... Pitchers have good games, they get hot... It happens... Get over it... Think about how many teams were saying this same s*** about Jon Garland when he first started winning games...

Well glad to know we lost already... Here I was under the impression there was over a month left...

It had to be said... This place has become painful lately... To think their was once a time that I actually legitimately respected all of the posters here... Now I can honestly say that I only respect half or maybe even less of you... Yes we have a losing streak... Yes we lost to Johan Santana... BUT jeez theirs no excuse for all of this sky is falling because we didn't get Ken Griffey Jr crap...

I'm still waiting for the thread about how KW needs to be fired... Of course it will someone totally ignorant who wouldn't realize that without KW's moves in the first place we would of been a 4th place team all along... This place has become really terrible lately... You people think i'm not the most optimistic person but some of you don't hold a candle to me... This place has become painful to even lurk at anymore... If anyone is curious as to why I never post here anymore thats why... To think I vent in the gamethread a few times and I'm called not a real fan, a troll... Yes i've eaten some crow on this board, I wasn't the biggest fan of the Freddy Garcia trade till we locked him up long term, I wasn't the biggest fan of the Scotty P. trade till we signed AJ and Gooch to go along with him and he proved that he could ignite the offense... But to think that I was pretty much cast out for saying s*** not half as bad as the crap going on around here is just nuts... WE LOST TO LAST YEARS CY YOUNG WINNER!!! IT HAPPENS!!! GET A GRIP!!!

I just wish people would stop this fiction of Ross Gload as a good defensive player... He's below average at worst, mediocorely average at his best... However i'm not against calling him up to platoon in the DH role or play 1B if Paulie really needs a day off...

How sweet of him to share the costume he wears for Ozzie with the rest of the boys... Timo you still suck... Your a peice of garbage... :puke

This has to been one of those most useless threads ever made... Any bets on how long till it's merged with the White Sox Winner thread...

AROW is one of the top talents in baseball today... If we manage to win this he will have a big part of it... GO SOX!!! We are back into this game... Lets just get a few more...

Ok i'll bite... *Not responsible for cracked monitors...

I wish I knew how to look up all of those threads about how he'd never be any better then a 4th outfielder, how his defense wasn't that great, and my personal favorite how he didn't have the talent to make it in the big leagues...

He's in the rotation of the Sox on Ken Griffey Jr presents major league baseball so he was obviously on the Sox before... I'm just amazed he's still around... Another guy I wonder about is Frank Castillo... I used to like him... anyone know where he is lately?

Timo Perez because he's so freakn' clutch Seriously though you know my answer on this... If I could i'd clone AROW and put him at every position on the field that bat him 1-9...

Not meaning to be rude but for us who aren't familiar with him could someone provide a bio or something..

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 10:04 AM) Gload is NOT a below average defender, you have to know one play doesn't make a career. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Your right... Which is why I also look at that dreaded cub series... and to the fact that he's no where near as skilled at picking balls in the dirt as Konerko... He might have better range then Kong when he's actually able to keep the ball in his glove, but I still don't feel comfortable with him out there everyday... He's kind of like Jamie Burke... career minor leaguer, decent hitter, but the glove work just plain isn't there...

Heres an interesting topic for discussion... Do you think he will ever start again? Personally I think he will stay in the bullpen for the rest of his career.... But I was wondering what opinion you guys had on it?

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 08:55 AM) You're hilarious Honestly, is this all an act, or do you really think some of these things you say? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Half and half... Seriously I think Gload is a decent hitter with below average defense. He has done nothing to really prove otherwise... I do think that Gload would still be here had he not made that error... Well that and having a batting average below the Mendoza line...

All I know is if I see one more person on here talk about how we struggle at home i'm going to puke.... 36-22, everyone should struggle so much at home...

Somewhere GMAN is smiling knowing your still bumping his thread..

QUOTE(GASHWOUND @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:11 AM) And to think they took 2 of 3 from us and then started that long that losing streak they're on...Ughh. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep and thats the reason Joe Borchard will be on the MLB roster before Gload.... Because Gload lost us one of the games singlehandedly and blew Garlands chance at history... At least one good thing came out of it though... We got rid of the myth of Gload as a good defensive 1B.... Maybe if Ozzie does give him one more chance he will stick to DH most of the time as he should of been all along...

The Sox would be retards to not sign Palmario if they had the chance... I don't care about the media circus... It gets us a big bat in the line up, gets Timo off the team, and gets us someone to even spell Kong at 1st occasionally... League minimum for the rest of the year they should do it in a heart beat... Too bad it won't happen though...

As hard a AROW works... As much as he's busted his ass for years... I don't think he'd risk all that by trying to use steriods... I would bet my last dollar that he's clean... Besides you'd think as naturally strong as he is he'd have more then 9 HR's if he was on something... Now could Steroids make Pods faster... That might be something to look into...

I am so happy that we won this game... Great job by Freddy, Cotts, and Herminson... Also big props to Uribe on that slide... Now that thats been said... WHEN WILL OZZIE STOP TRYING TO BE CUTE WITH HIS BULLPEN!!! If Hermy could pitch to two batters I don't get why he couldn't of come in to start the inning... It didn't come back to bite us now but it will eventually...

I think Piazza could defenately make a decent DH if the contract isn't too horrible...

You have to wonder how Blum feels about this... Here he is one of the biggest heros of the game and no one notices... On the radio post game show they said Konerko like 3 times... Can't be good for his confidence...

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 06:54 AM) Of course we won last night "in spite" of Ozzie. GMAFB. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes we won that game in Spite of Ozzie... There were about three bullpen arms that was sitting there availiable in the pen that would of been a better option in that situation then Marte, who sucks lately... You know it's gotten bad when I feel better with Vizcaino on the hill lately then Marte... The sad thing is I can still remember when he was the best arm we had...
