QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 5, 2006 -> 05:08 PM) What do you mean? I'm talking about having having Mackowiak replace Pods in the already established platoon of Pods/Ozuna. I see what your sayin...but I haven't seen too much of Ozuna lately. Just wonderin if the hammy is still bothering him.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 5, 2006 -> 04:58 PM) Anyone starting to warm up to the idea of Mackowiak replacing Pods in the LF platoon? What's Ozuna's status?

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 2, 2006 -> 08:22 PM) That movie sucked and I think less of you as a person for enjoying it. Seriously though, it sucked. Come on...it wasn't that bad. Drew looked tasty-hot in it!!!

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 2, 2006 -> 08:16 PM) Longest Yard was a remake, so was Deeds. I don't count them. Big 5? Is that Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, Little Nicky, Big Daddy...and I'm drawing a blank? 50 First Dates. I enjoyed that one a lot...just because I have HUGE wood for Drew Barrymore though.

QUOTE(shoota @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 05:35 PM) If KW only thought of him as a 5th starter, he wouldn't have given up a top prospect and taken on his salary that's one of the highest on the team for him. A top prospect...and a pretty decent arm out of the pen...and a servicable...albiet fragile starter. By far...KDub's CRAPPIEST move to date.

QUOTE(peanut33tillman @ Jul 30, 2006 -> 02:29 PM) I was just about to say am I the only one that doesnt trust Neal anymore....obviously not Count me in this club as well.

QUOTE(Reddy @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 03:08 PM) anybody else worry about facing a rookie making his debut? they always tend to do well against us... I am. The past few years...it always seems that some schmoe that just gets called up throws a 4-hitter against the Sox in their debut.

and not only one of their top prospects...then they do this: PHILADELPHIA -- The Philadelphia Phillies traded third baseman David Bell to the Milwaukee Brewers for a minor-league pitcher Friday night. Bell, who will be a free agent after this season, was hitting .278 with six home runs and 34 RBI in 91 games. The Phillies got Class A right-hander Wilfrido Laureano. He was 3-2 with a 3.96 ERA in 29 relief appearances for West Virginia of the South Atlantic League. I'm just really curious as to what Melvin is actually trying to accomplish here.

QUOTE(JDsDirtySox @ Jul 28, 2006 -> 10:24 AM) I will take the side of thinking the Brewers are dumb. Trade CLee and you don't even get a decent prospect? Nix has been unable to make it in the Rangers outfield for 3 years now. They tried to hand him the CF job for the past two years and he just wouldn't take it. Mench is a hot/cold player... what you see is what you get... not much upside. Cordero is a good bullpen arm. Plus the Brewers traded Nelson Cruz. I think he would have been starting in the Brewers OF in the next year or two. I love this deal for the Rangers. Agree....what the hell are the Brewers thinking?!?!?

thank god training camp starts for the bears soon.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Jul 25, 2006 -> 10:23 PM) I just wish Thome would destroy the clubhouse. He deserves better than this. He's been around long enough and has performed well enough to kick some ass. We're wasting a helluva season by Jim. He needs to kick some ass while we're still even in the wild card race and not 5 back. That's not his job dude...it's Ozzie's. Nor would you probably ever see him do that...or Konerko for that matter. Where's Jurassic when you need him?!? Thome's had a nice season...but on the other hand...he's left a ton on base. What I see missing is swagger. I know it's clicheic...but that's really what ARow brought to the table. I'd like to just call this a funk...and they'll snap out of it soon...they better.

QUOTE(GoRowand33 @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 03:52 PM) if we could somehow trade pods and vazquez for soriano itd be an amazing deal doubtful...but

QUOTE(CySox @ Jul 23, 2006 -> 09:02 PM) I think Kenny and the White Sox are just using Widger as their scapegoat for their recent struggles. Puh-lease. Yeah...that's been the problem. Hey...he calls a crap game and he han't produced at the plate. And yes...you can call calling a crappy game lack of preparation. Good move by KW IMO.

Obvioiusly the starting pitching needs to improve....but mostly what's killed them is one truly bad inning. Keeping the focus I'd say. The hitters...just need to relax and start having some fun again. I agree with you guys saying to stop swinging for the damn fences every time up.

I'm willing to go with my ritual last year during the playoffs...1 Miller Lite longneck per inning. In the 14 inning contest against the Stos...I ran out of longnecks and had to switch to rum and cokes. I barely remember Blum's homer!

Bob Watson is a complete asswipe! That is pathetic!

I can actually say...this is the first time in my life I EVER got into an All Star game and actually gave a s***. And I think most of you would be lyin if you said otherwise. Huge hit by Paulie! Thank you Garner for bringing in Hoffman.

QUOTE(G&T @ Jul 8, 2006 -> 07:19 PM) This team doesn't have Manuel managing. THANK GOD!!!!!

HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE WIN! Glad I wasn't there though. When did they quit selling beer?.....

If Cliff is even remotely hurt...he shouldn't even be given the opportunity to step on the mound...bottom line. I understand being loyal to your vets...but there comes a point where you say..."that's enough"...and Cliff has reached that point. Go get your goddamn shoulder surgery Cliffy and stop hurting the team.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 08:47 PM) I'm not talking about starting. Mark definitely doesn't deserve to start and neither does Jose anymore(Johan is the best pitcher in baseball, the end). That being said before the debacle that was today, Mark was definitely an allstar worthy pitcher. Yeah...I see what yer sayin. I guess I look at the staring pitcher of the all-star game as being "the man" at that time of the season...which Mark definately isn't right now. Johan is the best IMO.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 2, 2006 -> 08:44 PM) Buehrle was very deserving before today and Guillen already had the picks made. Moreso than Jose starting?!?

I can't say I blame these other fans about being pissed...but...it happens every year. Torre was always the culprit for quite a while. The only problem I have is Buehrle. He is VERY non-deserving of being an All-Star this year...especially after today. Does Mark have a clause in his contract that states he gets a bonus for being on the All-Star team btw? I still think AJ should have been named though.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jun 16, 2006 -> 12:26 PM) I'm a little confused. I have been reading negative things about Ozzie calling for the intentional hit. It was a retaliation to feeling that AJ had been hit by the pitches (atleast one of them) intentionally. Shouldn't Buck be coming under fire for using a baseball as a weapon then? Why is it O.K. for one manager to call for the intentional hit, but not the other? If anything, Ozzie's call for it was the "safer" one since the batters should all have known it would be coming eventually. Whereas the first batter hit would have no idea they were going to be targeted. But I guess since Ozzie yelled at somebody it makes his "attack" on the batter all that much worse? THANK YOU!....somebody gets it! Getting drilled or at least some chin music is part of the game...has been forever and will be forever...but Ozzie's taking all the heat for it. As for Moronotti...wasn't he just lauding Ozzie a short time back...as one of the best in the game...or something like that? Now he's questioning whether he should lead this team? What an idiot this guy is.
