I seriously don't blame him for saying what he did but I'm sure he'll get destroyed for saying this.

Dude, it's the Daily Southtown. After reading some of the absolute horses*** that they published around the AS break I don't believe s*** that comes out of that paper anymore. You think McCarthy for Villone was ridiculous image what they'd want for their stud closer who has 1.29 ERA and is 29/30 in save opps.

QUOTE(Whitesoxfan56 @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 08:57 AM) PK was a catcher? I knew he played 1st but he was a catcher? WOW you learn something new everyday Catcher to 3B to 1B. He was originally drafted by the Dodgers as a Catcher.

You also have to remember that Dimitri Young showed NO love for our club at the beginning of the year, he ran his dumb mouth and them and Cleveland fighting for the division. How would he fit in after saying some dumb s*** like that.

Some players that have reportedly cleared waivers this month: Tom Glavine, Mike Piazza, Ken Griffey Jr., Pedro Martinez, Carlos Beltran, Kris Benson, Doug Mientkiewicz, Victor Zambrano, Danny Graves, Miguel Cairo, Ramon Castro, Jorge Posada, Shawn Chacon, Tony Womack, Al Leiter, Felix Rodriguez, Wayne Franklin, Felix Escalona, Aaron Small, John Flaherty, Mike Sweeney, Sammy Sosa, Steve Kline, Ryan Vogelsong, Josh Fogg, Jason Christiansen, Edgardo Alfonzo and about 275 others

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 03:23 AM) Right. But you just opened another question box. Can a team really take up to 6 months to complete a PTBNL trade during the ML waiver period (Aug 1-Oct 2)? I found a cool site in the mean-time: http://www.mlb4u.com/rumors.html Somehow this site is tuned into players being discussed in trade talk around MLB & who shows up on waivers & such. It seems to get updated daily. That's quite possibly the best MLB site on the net. The players that have been rumored in trades is pretty much bulls***, they've been adding players to the same list for the past 3 months.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 02:33 AM) I could've sworn he tested positive to an over-the-counter testosterone precursor called Androstenedione, nicknamed Andro. I could be wrong though. Reports found a bottle of creatine in his locker and McGuire admitted to using Andro.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 01:10 AM) That's not the issue, the issue is the price to get him. Think Chris Young and Gio Gonzalez. That sounds about right. Both are top 10 prospects which is about what they'd be looking for. The price is just too damn high. Bazardo was the 3rd ranked player in the Marlins system and Seattle got him for Villone. Taking 2 of the Sox top 10 is about what they'd be looking to do.

QUOTE(WhiteSox311 @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 01:12 AM) is there even a wall in right field If there is then it's the shortest in all of baseball. Are they sure it's a good idea to have condos in CF like that, the ones in LF seem to have a bit more privacy but the one in CF seem out in the open. At the Skydome they have a hotel built into the top of the outfield and you can see into the rooms if they curtains are open due to giant sliding glass windows. During one game a few years ago they zoomed in on one of the rooms because they were talking about how unique the ballpark was with the hotel built in, anyway when they zoomed in on the room there was a guy getting a chick from behind up against the glass window in the hotel room. They had it on the screen for a good 20 seconds because they couldn't figure out exactly what it was they were looking at but after like 15 seconds the guy turns her sidways and they figured out exactly what was going on. Good television.

QUOTE(FOVzoso @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 12:47 AM) no way can halladay be the front runner hes been out since before the all-star break...i dont think they can possibly give it to him at this point i'd say either garland or rich harden if he keeps it up yes rich harden Halladay has nearly 30 more IP than Rich Harden. Roy Halladay is your front runner.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 12:06 AM) The supposed NL guy is Clemens, no doubt about it. And the AL guy is most certainly Damon, I've seen that in a few places now.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 12:02 AM) If i had to bet my life on one guy, i'd bet him. He has used em, just look at the guy, i've always suspected he was on roids. Can't make a call on the AL guy though You should check out a Padres batting practice some time and inspect, um.. the goods. That would be a pretty easy give away as to whether or not he has. However, I highly doubt that he has, it's just something that I've believed for awhile now.

At this point in time I'd say Halladay is still the front runner, especially with the fact that he will be back most likely within the week. Santana is gonna be in the top 4 and he's closing fast.

He can't play a TON of positions. He can play some OF and some 1B, that is all. The question is, is he a big enough upgrade over Everett to pay the amount for him that the Mariners would be asking for. They got Bazardo from the Marlins for Villone, that was way too much for a journeyman lefty reliever like Villone and at the same time they asked for McCarthy from the Sox for Villone, which is total horses***. Their price for a guy like Ibanez could be too ridiculous. There are a few GMs this trade deadline that have proven to be delusional and disconnected from the game. Ibanez could be a nice pickup for this club but the price could be too outrageous for a player like him.

QUOTE(KipWellsFan @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 09:48 PM) The jersies looks great just need to make a better background for them and somehow get rid of or cover up that catcher's mitt. I know, I'm gonna blend the catcher's mitt into Griff's ass and I have the background too. That will be changed.

This was my attempt: I'm going to completely redo the background and the text, seeing how I really don't like it. However I feel the pictures of Griffey look pretty decent which is a plus I guess.

You should try and make it look like he's in a Sox Jersey and not an altered Reds jersey.

It's on MLB.tv, no blackout. You're not missing s*** of anything anyway.

QUOTE(DePloderer @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 06:01 PM) Now your getting into a whole new game. Cockney rhyming slang. Septic- Septic tank-Yank. That would be the way they described it to me and it makes no sense at all.

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 05:28 PM) No more GBlum27? The universe was off kilter with that name all is right now.

QUOTE(DePloderer @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 05:39 PM) Thought as much. Unfortunatly not over here; more to do with the 5 finger shuffle around here. Either way, it's not realy called for. Right, there's about 4 different meanings depending on where you live. For the most part it usually translates into a person who is a Jerk, an unsavory character. But no matter where you live it is a derogatory term... This comming from an American in myself so it's not exact information but I do happen to know a few brits who went to my school, very cool guys. Loved their rugby. They called me septic for a while, I had no idea that was what they called Americans.
