fathom

It's amazing how many different topics have been discussed in one thread.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jun 29, 2007 -> 09:36 PM) I can't believe neither Weeks or Fielder dove for that weak grounder Fontenot hit in the 9th. Get your jersey dirty, boys. Who knows if it would of mattered. Why were they holding the runner on?

QUOTE(bulokis @ Jun 29, 2007 -> 09:31 PM) Cubs are starting to believe, hehehe. I hate this bcoz we'll start hearing this Cubs is a team of destiny. They've sure been swinging a magical stick late in games lately.

I hate this baseball season. Everything that could go wrong is. The worst part of it is if the Cubs go on to make the playoffs, they'll say it's because of the series they swept us in.

QUOTE(LVSoxFan @ Jun 29, 2007 -> 04:37 PM) Errr, whatever. Can we get back on topic here? This waiting is killing me. Question: do we think that if this deal happens or not, it would be wrapped up before tonight's game either way? If there's a deal, it won't be announced until Monday. Between the Bulls draft and the big Cubs series, Monday would be the perfect time to announce it prior to Buehrle taking the mound at the Cell.

Watched Nancy Grace before....Chris Jericho has "it" even when doing an interview about a murderer.

Hahn leaving is interesting....if we don't know anything by tomorrow night, it's doubtful that Buehrle is staying here.

FWIW, Richar isn't playing for Charlotte again tonight. Is he injured?

Ah....the great Jim Thome experience against lefties continues. Why not give him a break against a tough lefty, and let Hall DH?

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 11:46 PM) For the record, I still hate Scott Podsednik ... and George Offman. I just hope Pods ends up around .250 again, and there will be no thought at all of bringing him back.

Nice to see some offense against a tough pitcher.

So I take it Levine and the Score with nothing new today?

If we're intent on trading him, then you have to give that negotiating window. KW and JR should view the next 24 hours as the final chance to get Buehrle locked up for the next 4 years.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 08:42 PM) 100% Oh really, just a feeling? If you know more, I expect a PM.

While we're foolishly waiting around for any type of update, what's everyone's percentage in terms of Buehrle re-signing in the next 2 days? I'm at 30 pct now.

QUOTE(southsideirish @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 08:29 PM) I am not trying to start anything here and I believe you when you say you talked to this person and he said that. However, Kemp didn't punch anyone. What Civic said about AJ not punching Cora is meaningless. It turned out that Kemp never punched Cron at all. There's another situation we're referring to.

Interesting that he seems confident we asked for Pelfrey or Lester.

The lack of chatter/rumors about this today is amazing.

Toby Hall has absolutely zero value now, unless some idiot manager wants to put him at first base. We really should have him get the labrum surgery.

So, have there been any updates on the radio in the last few hours?

QUOTE(southsideirish @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 06:38 PM) Thank you Steff. Good point. The problem is that Fathom is stating his opinion as fact by using a source and not stating it as opinion. I am trying to get what he is talking about and who this person that told him this is. Confusing. You are what you are. Deal with it. Actually, this is something we've been talking about for over a year now in regards to Kemp. I'm not going to say who said it, etc....just trust some of us that know about the situation. Civic told you all you need to know.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 06:06 PM) And the fall out will be exacerbated by the Score's slip up. Absolutely, as I was telling WHarris last night on here, this season can't get more annoying than it's been.

QUOTE(southsideirish @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 05:56 PM) Told by whom? Why is asshole ok to say on this site? Isn't that vulgar? I guess not, if the filter didn't clear it up. I was using the exact word told to me about him.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 05:57 PM) Fields, Sweeney and Anderson from the AAA level will, I think, all be starters at some point in the next couple years. Richar and Getz both show big upside and I'd put them at 50-50 or better, though Getz needs a little more time (and I know many people won't agree with me on Getz). Lucy has a decent shot as well, in a year or two. Then there are a handful of guys that have outside shots (Owens and the like). I can't imagine any way that Anderson will be a starter with the Sox again. Also, I think soxtalk is the only place where anyone considers Getz to be a possible major league starter.

QUOTE(Soxfest @ Jun 28, 2007 -> 05:35 PM) Sox will not resign him and will say at least they tried speech! Yep, and at least that will speed up the decision to trade him. They can't let this situation loom over the organization for another month.
