Soxfest

Paxson needs to look in the mirror he thinks his young guys are so dam good they are not! Dumb move!

Would this be KW with 50 cents and spending a nickle in his way of thinking? I am not ripping or praising the move time will tell.

I would love Stone in DJ place, move DJ to the radio and tell Singleton at least you got experience for your next job!

100% Buster he can now be in a trivia question with Scott Ruffcorn!

http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/news/artic...sp&c_id=cws If KW really thinks he accomplished 3/4 of his off season goals already his main goal must be 90 losses. KW arrogant nonsense at it's finest!

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Dec 12, 2007 -> 09:26 PM) Ugh, stay the hell away from Crisp, please. I agree I do not get the KW love affair about getting him, he does not do much for me.

What would you like to ask me?

I am glad they did not overpay for AR and his 2 decent seasons.

QUOTE(Vance Law @ Dec 12, 2007 -> 01:28 AM) The one and only thing that has been tough this offseason is Cabrera landing on a division rival. Not our not getting him- that was never expected. I have no problems with any of the moves Williams has made or not made. Sox are still 10 plus games worse than Det or Clev, this off season has been terrible glad you have no problems with any of the moves Williams has made or not made enjoy it!

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Dec 11, 2007 -> 09:19 PM) A reason KW and the White Sox were really laying low with their interest. They knew they probably wouldn't be able to hang with the Cubs for this guy. Does this mean KW now overpays for Rowand and claims he was the main target all along? I am afraid you may be right and If that happens the off season is a total disaster.

From Scott Miller CBS Sportsline in losers section Chicago White Sox: They failed to land Miguel Cabrera, they couldn't snag Torii Hunter, they finished 24 games behind Cleveland last season and 16 games behind Detroit ... and the Tigers are only getting better. Ouch. http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/story/10516780

As of today KW deserves alot of flack his offseason thus far is not good! 1 playoff year under KW it is not a free pass forever just because 2005 was magical.

Williams remained confident his current roster possesses enough talent to contend. "All this has done is put the Tigers in a better position to contend with us," Williams said. If KW really belives this he needs to resign today! That is is arrogance at it's finest he looks like a 5 yr old.

No to Lofton!

"You try to do things that make sense and you can afford," Williams said. "I can't give you a dollar if I don't have 50 cents. Decisions are made awfully easy for you." Anyone else tired of this, these are the same comments he made since day 1, he said if people showed up he could do more. Attendance has been awesome last 2 years and ticket prices have raised both years but yet no big free agent signing or big trade deadline deal it is the same old BS from KW. KW says every year we have extra payroll to get the difference maker at trade deadline but never has, on free agents the same old we tried we really did. White Sox recieved 25 million in 2007 for MLB licensing products alone this does not count any other revenue such as TV/Radio or ticket sales or revenue sharing so do not give me and other diehard fans we have no revenue BS. I love the Sox but the excuses year after year about revenue is really old.

Get Cabrera then trade Willis if you want that is not a valid excuse sorry KW, 2 more specs that are low rated anyway who cares spin the wheel make the deal!

No way I pay Rowand 4/55 do not overpay just to do something at this point!

QUOTE(Leonard Zelig @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 05:41 PM) Are you guys who are bashing KW over this really upset because you thought we were getting MC all along, or just because you got your hopes up after the report that the "halls were buzzing" over a Sox deal? Sorry the farm system is so awful under KW clock and he blames everyone else, so trades like this we have no chips to play the game, but KW is good at being played this winter!

KW get some scraps now from someone and tell us it was plan 99Z because that is where you are today!

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 05:32 PM) Hmm, I'm starting to think that 2 years of Andruw > outlandish package of prospects that we are already thin on for Cabrera. Don't get me wrong, I want Miggy, but I want a farm system too. The farm system is awful you are not losing anything longterm as it is now!

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 05:31 PM) Actually, I was thinking that hot prospect Andy Gonzalez put us over the top.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 05:26 PM) it was on the radio and someone said it was a blurb on espn hd, maybe we thought we had him, then the Tigers upped their initial deal to block it. I think we sign Andruw Jones in the next few hours though. This supposed announcement ought to be interesting.

QUOTE(fathom @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 05:19 PM) We have no idea what really went on there. I'm not upset about this at all....the Tigers basically gave up the farm. Kudos to them. Come on Guillen comes out kissing his ass today, KW thought he had a real shot to get Cabrera.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 05:13 PM) Verlander Willis Rogers Bonderman Robertson Only 1 guy on that list had an ERA under 4.4 last year, and that was Verlander. That supposedly dominant staff sure struggled one hell of a lot last year outside of Verlander. Score 8 runs a game a ok rotation will do!

KW has now got played by Hunter and the Marlins he must like the feeling of getting used!
