This has 4-6 written all over it.

Oh Christ!!! Not. Good. Walk it off big fella'.

Rack em' up. We needed that. Badly. Let's get something going with the sticks.

One out. Atta' boy Iguchi.

The same thing just happened in the Flubs game. At what point in their baseball careers do big league ballplayers forget to communicate? Fundamentals. That could cost us with a runner on now.

Have we made Milwood look like Cy Young or what? Jeez, c'mon fellas. Figure this guy out already.

Iguchi hitting at .389 AFter a nice at-bat, Iguchi grounds softly to Milwood.

Podsednik grounds to Belliard to begin the game.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 12:47 PM) Damn, Ozuna is starting but at the wrong position. Give us another 4,782,556 posts explaining why.

Before you start backing a guy to bash another, don't you think it is important to know just a littttttttttttle bit about him. Let's take a look shall we. Ozuna 2000 Marlins 14G 24AB 2001 NOPE 2002 Marlins 34G 47AB 2003 Rockies 17G 40AB 2004 NOPE 2005 White Sox Well, you go ahead and start Pablo Ozuna at third, let's see how that works out for you. Me, I'll take Joe Crede. :headshake

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 12:21 PM) Ozuna's first major league season, Crede's what??? You killed your own point :headshake This is his first major league season huh? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 11:46 AM) The team is better off with Ozuna playing third this season anyway. QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 11, 2005 -> 12:08 PM) Being that this is his 5th pro season, I think Ozuna is prime for a breakout. How long has Crede been at the big league level? This is his sixth season, yet, you are willing to give Pablo Ozuna a starting job in his fifth because he "is prime for a breakout." Gimme a break. :headshake

Iguchi is on a tear. All 5 starting pitchers have looked excellent. We've won both of the season's first two series. ...they'll still find something to b**** about. Go get em' fellas!!!

QUOTE(Texsox @ Apr 10, 2005 -> 10:22 AM) A.J. was not part of that deal and there was no way at the time of the trade for KW to know he could get an upgrade at cacher. That is correct. However, Kenny addressed the hole that Olivo's departure created with the addition of one of the best catchers in all of baseball. He was able to acquire the single most sought after pitcher last season at the deadline and filled the hole created by acquiring him with someone much better than the incumbent. That is the basis for my arguement.

We need to worry about the Indians and Tigers just as much as we need to worry about the Twins. We'll have our hands full, believe me.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Apr 10, 2005 -> 10:12 AM) "Best signal caller in the AL" Welcome to soxtalk Hawk Disprove that statement. Pudge?

QUOTE(chi-guy2 @ Apr 10, 2005 -> 12:02 AM) i think id like a bulls playoff sig, something saying their back with hinrich gordon and chandler in it If that's what you're going for, I suggest having it say: "They're Back"

Disclaimer: This is not an attempt to spark another Kenny debate (or is it ), rather, an attempt to look at a few moves that may have gone overlooked thus far. The million dollar question: which would you rather have... Miguel Olivo and Jeremy Reed or Freddy Garcia and AJ Pierzynski Some things to consider: Reed: In 18 games with the Mariners last season -.397/.470/.466/936 (He won't keep that up over an entire season) -$316,000 -This season, he has 2 hits in 18 at bats Olivo: With both the Sox and Mariners last season -.233/.286/.439 -$400,000 -After struggling with the Mariners last season, he has 1 hit in 12 at bats this season Freddy Garcia: With both the Sox and Mariners last season -13-11 3.81/210 IP -Veteran Ace -Signed to a fantastic, relatively cheap contract at $8M -Really happy to be with Ozzie in Chicago AJ Pierzynski: With Giants -.272/.319/.410 -$2.25M -Best signal caller in the AL -Attitiude -Great with pitching staffs -Veteran that can hit To me, the choice seems quite simple. Where do you guys stand on the issue? Did Kenny pull off a serious deal here, or did he fail in some way, shape or form? I'd love to hear where we all stand on the issue.

To one of the Soxtalk's most underrated posters! Have a good one!

QUOTE(winodj @ Apr 8, 2005 -> 07:05 AM) What color ribbon supports poor labor conditions and exploitation of workers in Chinese factories? Oh, thats right, all of them. Truly, these things are getting out of hand. Traveshamockery.

I just ask that he does enough to keep us in the ballgame. If our pitching can hang, I think our sticks will generate enough runs to win the game (and that doesn't just apply to today).

Meh. Drag the waters. Things are going to start getting real ugly. I'd say I'm suprised....but...

A quality start from El Duque and W against the Twins and we move on from yesterday's collapse. Let's get a much needed W to set the tone. Get get em' fellas.
