QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 08:09 PM) In regards to part 1, are you serious? He's been a terrible offensive player since May 1st. A hot April doesn't=significant offensive force. I can't even believe I'm having this argument about a guy that really has been a bad offensive player since 2006 ended. Jones has been worthless since his start, so much so that the Sox are extremely frustrated with his stubborness to make adjusments. No doubt in my mind he'll be traded away for virtually nothing, probably as soon as he hits #400.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 07:53 PM) That was his first love, baseball was distant second. Ha, never heard about that. The Sox version of Rashaan Salaam.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 07:51 PM) Dan Gilbert is a MSU alum (fwiw) and people on the Red Cedar Board (MSU fan site) seem to think that the Cav job could actually tempt Izzo. I think it will also, and I think it will help them with LeBron...even though the Bulls seem to be the huge favorites right now.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 07:46 PM) The great thing about being a college coach is that your players are gone in three years max. Unless they tear their achilles

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 06:21 PM) Hasnt Izzo already been offered and turned down some NBA jobs that would be considered much better than the Cavs? I swear he has been courted multiple times and just doesnt want to give up his cozy spot at Mich St Yes, but that was before the turmoil that went on in East Lansing last season.

QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 06:57 PM) Who will be the veteran leadership to lead this team to a title this year!....... I am so confused. Harold Baines

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 05:21 PM) I dont want to unload Peavy or Thornton anyway. You wouldn't take him if someone took on his entire contract?

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 05:48 PM) Tom Izzo doesnt strike me as a "we're trying to keep LeBron here" move. So, their move to keep LeBron and go for a title is hiring a coach with NO NBA coaching experience. riighht.... Disagree, Izzo is one of the most liked individuals in all of sports. I don't think LeBron really cares about how many titles his coach has won.

Well, Izzo does have experience with his players have affairs with girlfriends/family members.

Cy Silva at it again. We'll see him this weekend. Never in a million years did I think he'd be an All-Star.

QUOTE (docsox24 @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 06:35 PM) yes they are filming tonight for the show doc, any guesses as to who we take?

I'd love the Brentz pick, as he could be a real impact player. Kvasnicka would be a bad pick, as he's not top 15 material and we'd be drafting for need instead of talent, which is a big no-no.

More like Darin Erstad

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 04:39 PM) Nope. Sale, but he'll go a few picks before the Sox picked. Don't ever let people on this board talk you into thinking that meaningless wins at the end of the season are a good thing.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 04:20 PM) I wonder if they have the prospects to get MB, as well as the $$$$. At this point, I'm not as concerned with the prospects we receive for Buehrle as I am freeing ourselves from his contract.

With Wojo, at the very least you're getting someone that can be a power reliever if starting doesn't work out. With Loux, you possibly have a rotation member to go along with McCullough and Broadway for the Windy City Thunderbolts. Kidding...I hope!

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 05:13 PM) Law has us taking Wojo. Compared to Workman and Loux, I'd be ok with that.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 04:02 PM) Right, I understand the concept, but as you said that's shady dealings. I dislike it very much. Sounds like something that would happen to us next year when we have a top 5 pick, and we'd end up taking a guy projected to go in the 20-30 range

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 03:45 PM) I like her a lot. Not to sound chauvinistic, but she has a great rack. Yes, she really does.

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 04:59 PM) Why are two teams bidding on a player that one team is entitled to draft due to a higher pick? It would seem that Grandal would then demand more money from KC, which could make them think of not drafting him. Sounds like some shady dealings by the agent. I'm concerned that Mayo and Callis, who are both at the draft, have the Sox taking Loux. Seems like there might be a leak in the Sox organization. With that said, interesting that Keith Law has Loux going 6th.

Why would Indians be going after Grandal when they already have Santana?

QUOTE (heirdog @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 04:53 PM) I'll just throw Stetson Allie into the mix as who I think the Sox will take. A hard-throwing HS arm that may end up doing a reverse Sergio Santos...and go play 3B. Not if you heard Stone and Hawk just go off on how dumb it is to draft high school pitchers. Allie will be a pitcher in the pros, you don't mess with that type of arm.

Callis mock draft has Sox taking Loux, EVEN with Grandal and McGuire still on the board. If that happens, you might as well just sell the team.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 7, 2010 -> 06:26 AM) She's pretty damn cute imo. She's one weird ass chick though. Just a normal looking girl with the worst personality imaginable. Anna Kendrick was looking great tonight though.

Brooks, you should be enjoying your day off.
