And a steal of 3rd base.

QUOTE(Soxfest @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 07:56 PM) I do not understand Duhon love affair i would of let him go. Gordon is a one-dimensional player as of now. And outside of the 4th quarter, he is pretty much worthless. Duhon is a key for this team.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 08:10 PM) Which is entirely possible. Oh, and there's a vintage just-out-of-the-reach-of-defender Minnesota hit for Punto. --And a terrible scoop by Konerko on Mauer's bunt. Not only them, but Cleveland as well. But don't worry guys because we have the best record in the major leagues. I wonder what tune people will cry with after we lose it.

Yeah keep talking about them. Pretty soon you'll stop worrying about other teams are start worrying about Boston passing us up in 1st place for the AL.

Jesse Crain in = Rally Over.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 07:47 PM) Expect the same 1-2 punch tomorrow against Radke. Timo hit's a HR off Radke once and he basically seals his placement in the lineup. Hopefully his career numbers actually warrant his addition. If they're anywhere like they are against Silva it's justified--i suppose. Against Santana, which I'm afraid to admit will likely be a loss with this offense, we'll probably see Ozuna in the leadoff position and (hopefully--if he's feeling better) Iguchi. May not see Anderson in this entire series unless there's a blowout or need for a RH pinch hitter. This probably will be the case.

QUOTE(NCsoxfan @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 06:52 PM) I would honestly now lowball Benson, and just let him go back into the draft. He obviously doesn't care anything about the Bears. Hes just a greedy piece of crap. Screw em. He would not get drafted number four next year. MAYBE top ten, but he would lose a ton of money. I am tired of these NFL holdouts, it is sick. Thats my two cents! I would just trade his rights for a Shaun Alexander who wanted out or Edgerrin James. Benson wants a deal that would be similar to their's so might as well go out and get the real proven mccoy.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 07:42 PM) Yeah, like Kyle Lohse "We have the best record in the league"

QUOTE(Yossarian @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 07:38 PM) You're absolutely right, but many have been lulled into a false sense of security by the great start. They're playing like crapola now, and it's foolish to think they can hit the start button again in time for the playoffs. Those are fighting words around this board. You might get flamed. BTW, I agree with you.

ALDS Lower deck box, Club Box $55 ALDS Bleachers, Lower reserved, Upper Box $40 ALDS Upper Reserved $30 ALCS Lower deck box, Club Box $100 ALCS Bleachers, Lower reserved, Upper Box $75 ALCS Upper Reserved $65 WS Lower deck box, Club Box $185 WS Bleachers, Lower reserved, Upper Box $140 WS Upper Reserved $125 Thanks for the info Steff.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 06:59 PM) Correct, this board criticizes absolutely nobody. As a matter of fact I don't think I've ever seen a player bashed or for that fact the best team in baseball has never been bashed on this site either. It's frowned upon as evident by your sarcastic post. You criticize and the first thing that'll come out of this board's mouth, "STFU, we're first in the league...blah blah blah, etc" I don't give a s*** about best record. That's because of what our pitching did in the first half for the most part. No way in hell you could fool anyone into thinking this team is better than the Cardinals, Red Sox, the A's or even the Angels at this moment in time. So f*** that lame ass excuse.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 06:49 PM) This coming from the guy who declared our pitching staff overrated because Mark and Jon had bad games against the Red Sox. I said overrated by people on this board. It's true. Buehrle is seen as a god. He could have a Kerry Wood like career and people will still say he's great. That's how homeristic it's been around here. Everyone is exempt from criticism unless designated sucky by 20 people on this board.

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 06:45 PM) But Hawk says we have nowhere to put him in the lineup!!! Pods helps our OF be the best defensively in the majors. Hawk is soooooo retarded it's not funny. I know he's trying to downtalk Griffey because KW probably told him it looks like we won't land him, but damn, don't be so f***ing stupid in your comments.

QUOTE(Mr. Chairman @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 06:17 PM) I am going to bring you a dream, as a token of appreciation. Griffey??

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 05:50 PM) Eugene Parker aspires to be Drew Rosenhaus I see Or Benson is a greedy f*** who wants too much money. Honestly, I don't think it's Eugene Parker using Benson as a puppet like Rosenhaus does. I think that Benson just wants sooo much money. He isn't going to get what Phillip Rivers got so he needs to stop hoping for that.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 05:52 PM) Much of the fear over whether Rush will qualify or not comes from the fact that a couple of schools he attended in HS no longer exist making it more difficult to get their records. From everything I've read and heard he has a qualifying GPA and SAT score. Thanks for the info. I hope he chooses Illinois because I know he would be great as a basketball player.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 05:53 PM) On Sportsnite tonite the Sox beat reporter said that KW said during his interview that they basically have the trade out there, and they have done as best as they possibly can, and its up to the other side to decide to do it or not. Kenny going through the media? Also said KW doesn't think any move will be done within the next 2 and a half weeks.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 05:52 PM) If the Sox did land Griffey, he wouldn't play hardly any corner OF at all. Maybe a little but you wouldn't see more than 4 games out there for him. He'd play DH exclusively and occationally play some CF. LF/RF wrench the s*** out of an OFers legs, that's why guys like J.D. Drew want to play exclusively in CF, the angle you have to take in the corner OF puts too much torque on your legs. I think Drew is the only person to think that. Your hamstrings are worked the same play any OF position. There are many times in CF in which you have to run hard all the way back or all the way forward. In fact, I would say playing CF takes more toll on your legs and hammy's than playing the other OF positions if anything. I guess since JD Drew says it, it must be true. I also agree with Mr. Chairman's thoughts on Aaron Rowand.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 04:41 PM) Mark Buerhle I don't know. He had that year in the bullpen. He really wasn't lightout from the bullpen either from the start.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 04:39 PM) If some goof named Matt Murton stolen from the Red Sox can contribute immediately for the Cubs, shouldn't be too much to expect for Anderson. I expect quality results from the best hitting prospect in our organization. Now, I already know how everyone will act if Anderson struggles for an extended period--some will call him a bust, others will regurgitate a slogan developed just for White Sox pitching prospects: "Need more time to develop." But for once every 10 years, it'd be great for a callup to absolutely tear up pitching. Our team needs a spark in the lineup. Hopefully he'll provide it. Who was the last guy for the White Sox that just helped from the get go? Pitching or hitting wise. I can't remember at all. Frank.

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 04:11 PM) Christie has the brains (on the court), and he's in great shape. He would help a good overall squad that needs some stopgap defense out of the SG slot. He's old, but not that old. Old in guard terms. I agree that he would help some team as a stopgap, but I don't think the Bulls should be looking for one with a wife like his.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 02:42 PM) Im just saying I wouldnt shed any tears if we lost Konerko and I dont think he is worth more than 8 million per year. I agree. If you can't trade for a 1B, sign him and trade him the following year and sign someone like a Nick Johnson or Hillenbrand.

QUOTE(3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 04:31 PM) We know Bruce Levine is an idiot, but he's saying that expect to see Anderson on the bench a lot, and if he does play, he wouldn't be near the top of the order That's how I expect it to go down, basically meaning we shouldn't have put him on the 40 man roster if he wasn't going to be used. Should've used Willie and let him rot on the bench if that's the case.

QUOTE(SpringfieldFan @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 04:12 PM) From the Red's fansite: No confirmation, or backup resources but a fan over there is saying: Redszone Take it for what its worth. SFF Wow, the poster there says he's heard the names of Honel or Hernandez(catching prospect) replacing Rogo.

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 04:07 PM) Naah, you misunderstood. Let's not forget that you have been s***ting on these here threads for quite a while now. It doesn't all boil down to just one particular conversation. Sometimes it's better to just read and NOT respond. You know what I'm saying? How can I understand what you're saying when you're typing?
