QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 13, 2009 -> 10:56 PM) Going to Charlotte really appears to have turned the Count around. And he was the one that wanted to go to AAA. Ultimate team player and professionalism

QUOTE (BamaDoc @ Jun 13, 2009 -> 04:29 PM) How does the mutual option for 12 million in 2010 work? I assume both sides(mutual) must agree but if not does he become a free agent or can the sox offer arbitration and keep draft pick compensation in the equation? I would keep J Dye and other veterans and get rid of those that don't produce.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 09:33 PM) In addition to a slimming down of personal attacks, I wouldn't mind seeing an end to the "I'm too good for this thread" or "Not this again" posts that have been becoming more frequent as this season wears on. As long as we agree that Joe Crede is he greatest thirdbaseman in the whole wide world

Thank you to all the Moderators. I was getting a bit taken back by all the negativity and am glad we can get this aired out and get back to White Sox baseball talk. I appreciate the opportunity to correspond here with other Chisox fans

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 12:11 AM) fastballs in the low 90s thrown down the middle tend to get hit He has been doing this more often than a real closer should be doing it

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 01:03 AM) It's only taken 3 years to figure it out. Too bad whenever TCQ comes back, hes gone for good. Wise will be gone

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Jun 12, 2009 -> 12:56 AM) Thornton would have to bring in a CANT MISS, or a top player, he's the best left-handed reliever in baseball IMO. I agree 100%. The guy mows them down

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 05:13 AM) Jared Mitchell has no business being up in September. How many minor league games would he play? 5? You're right. He shouldn't be called up at all this year. Let's see how he does next year in ST

Tonights game like game one yesterday was frustrating, but the positive is the fact we fought back in the 9th to tie it. Yes, we seem to find new and depressing ways to lose games, but I think this will even out and we will be fighting for the division still as we get into the final couple weeks of September. There undoubtedly will be a couple more moves. What those are only time and KW will tell. But, I ain't ready to throw in the towel yet.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 05:09 AM) Linebrink has a full NTC. OOPs

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 05:06 AM) Not with that contract Phils want to win. They will take it on

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 05:05 AM) I think the best bet would be trading Dotel to the Phillies. Linebrink instead

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 04:42 AM) Now Linebrink stinks? Our bullpen is Jeckyll-Hyding again like last year. What a f***ing freak team we have. Getting the potential winning run thrown out at the plate SUCKS also. Tough loss in a tough season so far. How many homers has our late inning relief given up? A few for sure

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 04:52 AM) If we can't get Reed Johnson, I honestly believe some might start asking if Mitchell can contribute this season at the big league level. But, Fathom do you really believe that is correct thinking? I don't. You can't rush these guys. Maybe that;s what we are going to see with Beckham and Poreda? They are rushed.

QUOTE (tommy @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 01:11 AM) AJ said something to Willis, on the way back to the dugout, Laird got in AJs face. AJ should have decked them both

On field delay what's going on?

Of course they have to be able to hit the ball though

We should be ready to crush Willis. It appears his fastball and off speed pitch are only like 2 MPH difference

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 01:02 AM) AJP is just a joke of a defensive catcher now. He was just setting up the fly ball for the 3rd out

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 12:42 AM) Jarrod Mitchell just called up to the big league squad, per the score just kidding of course The MLB Baseball channel guys were gushng about this guy. Said he might be the best pick of all the position players available

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 12:49 AM) To Gordon Beckham. May this be the 1st of many. I logged onto Gameday and saw that GB got his first hit. There was a video. but unbeknowst to me you have to pay a subscription price. What arip off

QUOTE (WSoxMatt @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 09:59 PM) If he outperformed the majority of the team, then the majority of the team isnt qualified I feel very strongly both ways about that

We CAN beat Dontrelle!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 01:50 AM) The controversial Ozzie statement should be coming soon if this doesn't work... The only thing that might blunt that is if no one can understand him

QUOTE (Wanne @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 10:57 PM) uhhhhhhhhhh...NO!!! I really don't ever want to see Josh Fields in the lineup ever again. Apparently Josh Fields post here under the tag Marty
