He could not be used multiple days, no way he could last long in the pen!

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 08:06 PM) You know much that costs? They didn't have any more problems with weather than any other team last year. The Minnesota weather thing is overblown. The night games in April and early May in 20 degree weather cannot be much fun. Milwaukee saw a need for a retractable roof, Twins should of also.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 07:59 PM) Game has been postponed. no makeup date. Why they built a stadium in Minnesota with no retractable roof is beyond me.

Offense could use DV we shall see.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jun 14, 2011 -> 10:19 AM) They hold a good amount back for Ozzie Plan and season ticket folks hoping to generate sales after agood start....ooops Yep that is why tickets are available they were not sold without a season ticket plan.

Piper beat the Miz love it. RP has really got back in good shape lost alot of weight. Love Hotrod

We claim Septino then make a trade tonight with D-Backs The D'Backs have acquired right-hander Gaby Hernandez from the White Sox, reports the official Twitter feed of the Reno Aces, Arizona's Triple-A affiliate. Hernandez had a 7.69 ERA in 11 starts at Triple-A Charlotte this season and he has a career ERA of 5.76 in 81 Triple-A games. Arizona is Hernandez's fifth organization in 17 months. He was a Mariner, a Red Sock, and a Royal within a little over a month's time in early 2010, and then he was dealt to the White Sox last March. Hernandez was originally taken in the third round of the 2004 amateur draft by the Mets.

Let's at least be a .500 team before threads like this start. Sox have been big time underachievers so far in 2011.

Lebron I have as many rings as you and I am going back to my life today. CHOCKER!

That is suprising to me SD really liked him alot. Give AP a shot back with the sox.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 13, 2011 -> 12:55 PM) I think I can safely count the opinion of the general manager of the White Sox as valid when compared to a reputable writer pretty safely. The point was to have proof from someone outside of yourself that your opinion is valid. I have the general manager of the White Sox on my side. So far, you are still ducking the question, because you know you don't have any proof at all. Instead you are going to pick at my argument as to distract from your being wrong. Just because KW does not want to put up with the Guillen family BS does not mean 29 other teams do not. You have no valid proof why the other 29 teams passed on him at all. Sox GM runs 1 team not MLB.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 13, 2011 -> 12:32 PM) He is the freaking GM of the team! What more authority would you like on why the Sox didn't draft someone? oh right, some random writer. Anyways, that is all a deflection from the fact that you can't find anyone to back up what you wrote, while I have the guy in charge of the organization's draft in my corner. I'm still waiting to see any proof from you. What? You wrote " The easiest way to back up what you are saying would be to find a reputable baseball writer to agree with you ." I was looking for a writer OUTSIDE Sox circle not what KW says he does not control the other 29 teams from drafting Ozney. I do not care the Sox did not draft Ozney nobody drafted him. You find me someone OUTSIDE the White Sox saying he was not drafted because of his family BS. You have not shown me any proof either.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 13, 2011 -> 12:25 PM) Kenny Williams pretty much said exactly that. He is not a writer and I am looking for someone outside the White Sox JR family tree.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 13, 2011 -> 12:15 PM) First things first, you are talking about the wrong kid. Oney was drafted years back, and is already long since retired. Ozney is the kid you are thinking about. The easiest way to back up what you are saying would be to find a reputable baseball writer to agree with you about Ozney not being good enough to draft. I haven't single that in print a single time. I just changed it to the right name. It is no different than showing me a reputable baseball writer who said Ozney was not drafted because of the family BS.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 13, 2011 -> 07:24 AM) No s*** Sherlock. The point was, and has been made to you multiple times now, that the most likely reason is because teams didn't want to deal with the Guillen family drama. You make statements without knowing what you're talking about and refuse to acknowledge anything when they are rebutted, as happened by multiple people when you made pretty much the same statement in the minor league forum. He was far from an elite prospect but he was a prospect. He was rated somewhere around 60 among hitters from Florida this year (which is a loaded state) and was rated by some higher than his teammate (Ravelo) going into the draft last year. If his last name was not Guillen, he probably would have been drafted around the 30 range this year and somewhere around the same last year. But since his family has caused so much bulls*** lately, he was nowhere near good enough of a prospect to justify putting up with that. That is the most likely reason he was not drafted. But by all means, keep making statements using absolutes and exaggerations when you clearly haven't done your homework. It's amusing. Amusing is you with no concrete evidence saying that NOBODY drafted Guillen because of family BS that is your opinion. "That is the most likely reason he was not drafted." If a team wanted Ozney he would of been drafted even a late round flyer they would have nothing to lose. I am done talking about a guy who was not good enough to be drafted in the eyes of scouts he is a FA now and OG can guide him where he wants now, good luck to Ozney.

Sox win Santos throwing way to many pitches.

This is hard to watch Santos is being exposed.

Dunn 3 run jack

Good old Rios.

That sucks AR has hit into a bunch DP's as has Rios.

Lets score.
