Floyd fight Manny or retire!

Sox elimination a Milton Bradley game.

MB your table is ready!

Joe Borchard I really thought he would be stud OF.

I go with ALL hitters who no longer has to listen to Walker, they are all winners in my book for that reason alone! Addition by subtraction 101.

Sorry MB see you in STL.

I not pissed anymore, I cannot wait for this staff to get s*** canned.

- According to PWTorch, Matt Hardy has been arrested again. Hardy was recently arrested on another DWI charge in Raleigh, N.C. Hardy now has several court dates set. The first on September 28th for his August 20 DWI arrest that led to his release from TNA. That arrest has charges of Driving While Impaired and Exceeding Safe Speed. Next he has a court date on October 11th, from a different incident, where was charged with Reckless Driving - Wanton Disregard. Finally, for the latest arrest, he appears in court on November 30th to face charges of driving while impaired. This guy will be dead soon.

On Interleague not a fan of the extra west coast Dodgers games. I love Milwaukee and StL games, Houston is blah. Cub games at Wrigley before school is out real early this year!

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Sep 13, 2011 -> 10:16 PM) This is a big game? Did not say it was but in big games all year they have been underwhelming at best. They are fighting to stay alive.

The pitching staff is not as good as some on this site think it is. They lay down and show no toughness in big games all year.

I feel sorry for anyone who had to pay to watch this nonsense.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 08:17 PM) Besides Punk and the Miz/Truth, Raw is downright unwatchable again. That first segment was horrific. Sad. Punk/HHH segments have run there course, I am glad the maych finally is Sunday!

It is a joke he even has a choice in the matter! FIRE HIS ASS!

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 09:16 PM) No f***ing way. Porcello is terrible. Terrible is watching Danks not even compete last few starts he needs to grow a set.

I would take Porcello over Floyd, Peavy or Stewart. Danks has shown he pisses his pants against good teams this year.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 05:26 PM) The agent for Steelers RT Willie Colon revealed Monday that his client has a torn triceps muscle and is likely to miss the rest of the season. Colon is scheduled for surgery on Tuesday morning. The Bears tried like hell to get this guy. I bet he wishes he was a Bear now.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 05:17 PM) I've never understood the players association's objection. Theoretically, slotting would free up more money for players who are in the union. Also, it would limit teams like Boston and the Yankees from lining up great prospects which should open up jobs on their teams, and they pay higher wages. Trading picks should also be allowed. I agree the players union should have nothing to do with it.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 12:18 PM) You really aren't trying to say that the starting pitching is the reason we are out of the race are you? Hitting has been a major problem, but so is starting pitching last 2 months when needing big wins they have not got the job done.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 12:10 PM) His numbers would have him in the pen or AAA with the pitching that we have. This great pitching you say is how many games back and a .500 team not so great Porcello would be the 4th starter easy on the Sox. IMO.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 12:05 PM) Rick Porcello also wouldn't be in our rotation right now. Yes he would.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 11:49 AM) There's been a major change in philosophy since that draft though. I hope it gets better because quite frankly it can't get much worse. Sox are going to have to spend in round 1 and get best player available regardless of cost. If they want to improve the farm system, we all know after round 1 they did not spend anything the last 2 years. I do not like the major change in philosophy in that regard!

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 11:27 AM) Not true, of late, it seems the first round pick is where the Sox try to get the best overall talent and then work out a unique contract. After the first round...no, it doesn't matter. I disagree the year the Tigers took Porcello the Sox could of drafted him and did not want to pay what he wanted is one example. Walker to me was a major reach.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 11:03 AM) It's clear that even on Sept 2 that the top nine picks were already locked down by Houston, Baltimore, KC, Minnesota, Seattle, San Diego, Pittsburgh, Oakland and Washington. It wasn't going to be possible for the White Sox to win less games than those teams at that point in the season. Is the difference between the #10 overall pick (our lowest conceivable win total at that point) and the #18 overall pick (our highest conceivable finish is 13th best record) really that significant? No, because Sox will draft the cheapest, safest, easiest signable pick in round 1.
