Just great 4-0 now.

Yeah I hope Valentin is gone next year. I remember back in 2000 I was like, how can the Brewers not resign this guy, well in the past few years I've come to understand why.

First hit of the game by Willie and Juan grounds into a DP.

Borchard getting plenty of playing time
He is the opposite type of player and if he doesn't have a good September there could be another possible trade. If that happens I really wish it was him traded to Seattle and not Reed. I forgot if they wanted only Reed or not.

Ozzie and KW on the same page
Hahaha I like, very true in most cases.

Giants claim Burnitz and Estes
Very interesting.

The two things that I'm mostly getting tired of are Jon Garland blow up innings and Jose Valetin's strikeouts.

Ozzie and KW on the same page
I know some people hate KW, but I do think he is a good GM. Even though I question the trades of Alomar and Everett (Round 2 of each time) the 2 earlier this year with getting Garcia and Davis have really worked out and trading Koch can only be a plus. If there was one thing I'd like to see for next year, it'd be fewer trades because I think having 5 trades in under a year can ruin team chemistry a bit even if you have a manager like Ozzie.

I applaud Jose Contreras
Great job Jose, and I'm not talking about Valentin here.

Trade Idea
Yeah they wouldn't trade with us at all. Especially a Garland for Gerut deal.

Aaron Rowand = future team captian
I never hear about captains on the Sox. I was assume Frank is one, but do they have others like the NBA does?

Beat the Tribe: August 28, 2004 Game Thread
At first I didn't like the trade with the Yanks but now like everybody, this trade is starting to turn out to be one of the most one sided trades in a long time.

Yeah, both of those were strikes to me, but I'm glad he didn't call them.

Way to go Heather, she guessed it right, home run by Konerko!!!

That is true.

Esteban Loaiza
Loaiza is worse than he was before I think.
-
Ross Gload
I don't mind Gload as a pinch hitter or someone to fill the roster out with but I don't really want to see him be an everyday starter next year.

2005 free agents
If that happens, all I can say is I'm glad the Sox aren't in the N.L.

Here's a bold prediction, if Willie Harris plays he will homer tonight. Well how about just a hit and a walk.

Soxtalk Soundoff: Joe Crede
Part of that is I think that's kind of his personality, quiet and laid back. But he doesn't really seem to care and I do too find him irritating to watch at times. I agree with Megs on this one.

Soxtalk Soundoff: Joe Crede
I say let him play the rest of the season, and if there is any possible third basemen out on the market, like Koskie, go for him or try to trade Crede or something. I like this kid but he's not getting it done and I doubt he'll be able to change it around this year. His future is also a possible bust as well.

Why doesn't Willie start every game at 2b or CF?
Yes, I agree with that. This season is basically over baring a miracle so why not let the younger players go out and see what they can do.
