sox close to another deal?
QUOTE (iamshack @ Dec 16, 2009 -> 05:21 PM) It sure could. Ozzie just has to realize the risk of getting caught with the pitcher DH'ing is incredibly minimal. How many games in his White Sox career has AJ left in the middle of the game because of injury or being ejected? Well of course they could do it, they could put Jermaine Dye at shortstop in a pinch if they had to. Ozzie would not send his only backup catcher out to DH on a regular basis and I think you know that.

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Dec 16, 2009 -> 04:22 PM) I wonder why people haven't talked about Flowers possibly being the DH? He could rotate with AJ behind the plate and get a decent amount of ABs in the DH hole. Sounds like a nice transition to me. Just go out and sign a DH next year. . . Wouldn't work if he is the backup catcher.

St. Louis Blues
QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 16, 2009 -> 11:14 AM) I'm pretty sure the spot to hit before Blues games is Bernie Federko's. It's right across from the stadium, it's huge, and it's dedicated to hockey. Maybe if you want to go to the hot hockey spot, I'm not a hockey fan so I only go if I get free tickets. I take the shuttles from Soulard to all the stadiums, its 5 minutes away and I don't have to mess with parking. You could still take the shuttles and walk over to Bernie's.

St. Louis Blues
I've never been to the United Center so I cannot make any comparisons. I can recommend that you go down to a bar in Soulard and take one of the free shuttles to the stadium, you can bring your drinks on them and some even sell cans out of a cooler.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Dec 14, 2009 -> 02:34 PM) "If this minivan's a rockin'. . . " Makes me yearn for the ol' Chevy Conversion van back in college. Ha, I wasn't even thinking about that. I have to move a bed and I can either borrow a minivan or figure out plan B.

If that makes Daley a buffoon, then there are a whole lot more buffoons running around out there, many here on Soxtalk.

Hideki Matsui
QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 7, 2009 -> 06:22 PM) Did you read his comment right? I think so, he said he didn't care if the DH plays in the field, but we haven't had a DH who played the field for about as long as I can remember so I'm not sure what Ozzie needs to get over.

Hideki Matsui
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 7, 2009 -> 05:15 PM) I think Ozzie needs to get over this 'I want my DH to be able to play the field' crap. I mean players for the most part that are DH's are DH's for a reason. I don't care if my DH can't play the field. I want my DH to mash. What are you talking about? Outside of Everett's 22 games in 2005, when was the last time we had a DH who played in the field?

Jake Fox
What's the deal with Fox, is he just a butcher in the field?

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Nov 30, 2009 -> 10:10 PM) I was in my teens in the late 80s/early 90s,long after the Beatles heyday yet they are my favorite band. You would think Pink Floyd,The Who,Led Zep,Beatles,etc. would be huge today considering that today's rock is the crappiest it's been since rock and roll music started. There's good rock bands out there, you just have to look a little harder to find them.

Red Sox maybe not desperate for a SS
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 30, 2009 -> 05:03 PM) why is Boston seem to be so willing to trade Ellsbury? A great leadoff hitter, young, probably still cheap, I would think you would want to hold onto him. Well, they do have Brian Anderson.

White Sox sign Andruw Jones
OK, is this better or worse than signing Crisp for this role?

White Sox Interested In Coco Crisp
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 25, 2009 -> 12:06 PM) It's also worth noting that no team wants to sign someone before the arbitration deadline and then wind up giving up an extra draft pick because they jumped the gun. Sign Matsui right now, or Thome, and the other team can offer arbitration without having to worry about the player accepting because they already signed a contract with another team. How can you offer arbitration to a player on another team?

Singular Form of Sox
QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Nov 20, 2009 -> 08:17 PM) If you're talking about the sporcle quiz, it just asks for the professional teams that do not end in an "S." No it was on TV, can't remember where, maybe that show on ESPN?

Singular Form of Sox
I remember seeing a trivia question that asked for the names of the teams who are not plural like the Heat or the Lightning and both Sox were on that list.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Nov 17, 2009 -> 09:40 PM) So says the person from the prestigious Kent State university, a school best known for Drew Carey and that one guy who got shot by the Ohio National Guard. Actually four unarmed college students were shot and killed by the Ohio National Guard, haven't you ever heard the song?
