That's ok, I figured it was too late. I'll just wait until spring, and do fantasy baseball here, that should be fun.

Well, the only thing is that if we traded Crede, we'd be pretty limited in our infield options. At least we have plenty of OF talent in the minors. I'm not saying Reed wasn't very good, he was. It's just we have more of it, so to speak. And, besides Fields, nothing at 3B.

And to add insult to injury for them, they MIGHT not be able to sign Wade Townsend. Depends on what the MLB rules.

I pretty much agree with dasox. Start him in B-ham, and if he does pretty well for the first month or two, move him up to Charlotte.

NICE! 3-run double for Paulie. Sele pulled after 1 2/3. 102 RBIs this season for Paulie!

ROFL! I saw that coming a mile away, when Sele just kept walking right towards him.

Ooh, nice play by Eck wasted by Kennedy. Can't say I'm too sorry though. 4-1 Sox.

I don't suppose there happens to be a spot still, and I can join? If there is, give me the info please, if not, oh well, I just joined yesterday, so I'm looking through all this.

I've always heard that Honel projects more as a 2-3 guy than a 1.

Dunno why. Different people have different reasons. Maybe they're a close friend of Guillen. Maybe they grew up in Chicago. Not saying anyone would sign here, just saying, there's so many factors it's hard to tell.

Well, assuming the payroll is the same, Maggs's contract doesn't do us much does it? That goes towards Garcia and Contreras. And Valentin's will go to whatever raises, be it through options or whatever, there are. So not as much to work with as you'd think. I don't think Loaiza made much, and the only big league salary we lost in the Garcia deal was Olivo's, which wasn't much either. I would love to get a pitcher along the lines of Pavano, Perez, Radke, or Lowe this offseason. While Hairston would be nice, I'm perfectly fine with Willie, and I think there are more pressing needs than 2B. The only way that would work is if you stuck Willie in Center, Rowand in Right, and kept Lee in left. That would take care of the outfield problem. Another bullpen arm should be necessary. The best shortstop in the draft will be Justin Upton, B.J. Upton's younger brother, but he should be long gone before we could take a crack at him. J.D. Drew's agent is Boras, so that's not gonna happen. The most pressing need, in my opinion, is another proven starter. A rotation like this would be pretty good: 1. Garcia 2. Buehrle 3. FA 4. Contreras 5. Garland

Who would you propose trading Konerko for?

Yeah, I was reading over the transcript yesterday afternoon, I just figured it was here already, or else I would of posted it. Hmm, I would of ranked them in this order, personally. 1. Anderson 2. McCarthy 3. Sweeney 4. Fields 5. Young Though, I could interchange Sweeney and Fields, and be perfectly fine. If Young could ever work his average to the .280-.290 range, he would be right around Anderson wouldn't he? Young has more power and speed, though Anderson plays superior defense. And Anderson has decent speed too, I think.

Roberto Alomar: Yankees Sandy Alomar Jr: Retire Carl Everett: White Sox Magglio Ordoñez: Mets Cliff Politte: White Sox Jose Valentin: Cardinals

"Yep, Garland has got a perfect game going into the 9th on 85 pitches and Lackey has only given up a solo home run to Willie Harris." I feel so lost. Whatever. Gload is in tonight.

Hmm. What about a guy like Matheny, if the Cards don't re-sign him? Not that great offensively, but a Gold Glover on defense.

Thanks. Yeah, if Lowe is too much, stay away. But I wouldn't mind seeing him here. Or Perez, I would like him too...I feel like a kid in a candy store!

I would like Lowe as a 4. But I don't think he'll sign with us.

Does he profile more as a Center Fielder or a Left Fielder? He played Center mainly before Anderson came up, didn't he?
