I'll give you the politically correct answer. Basically, they see his potential and what he accomplished in the minors and are pissed off that he hasn't done the same yet at the ML level. It's just like Garland, except Garland finally developed(after 5 years mind you) and so they moved on to their new sparring partner. Uribe has actually been as bad if not worse than Crede.

This has to be a move for another bigger move. Jenks and Shingo could become best friends since Shingo throws a 55mph changeup and Jenks comes in with the 100mph FB. I don't think KW would give up Shingo(who's good friends with Iguchi) for something unproven this season unless this prospect was a grand prospect. Hell, maybe he could be going to the Rangers and we're getting the Rangers 1B prospect(who I've heard is supposed to be good) so when we let go if PK(hopefully) we have some guy to take his spot. I'm just throwing out ideas. With that said, I don't think a deal is going to be made. I'd be shocked.

ipodlounge.com, it'll be your best friend.

so who's going to provide the nuke for cleveland??

QUOTE(southsideirish @ Jul 15, 2005 -> 01:29 PM) I say do it and then go hard after Billy Wagner. If we are not giving up any prospects for Burnett, then we will have enough to get Wagner. Burnett and Wagner >>>>> Count and Marte I agree, but I think Marte when healthy(like we saw him last night) is better than Wagner. He's untouchable to both lefties and righties and he's younger. Burnett and Contreras are the same IMO with Burnett being better overall, but they are both Jekyll and Hyde pitchers. One day there is brilliance and another day they'll get rocked. Marte>Wagner Burnett>Contreras Question is if Burnett is better than Contreras enough that it constitutes taking a downgrade in the pen?? I see it being a lateral move(even though I love Burnett and Wagner both).

Wow, I didn't know NBC5 would have posted a story already on my wedding. Geezus, talking about letting the whole world in.

I'm not new here. I'm a mod. Cross me and your ass is getting kicked off the site. You hear me as...*earmuffs children who are reading this* assholes!!!!!!!

My friend was trying to get tix for her and her BoSox friends. I'll say it's going to be split between Right Sox and BoSox fans in the park. Anyway, I'm going Thursday(night before 8AM final, but who gives a damn) and I'll be rooting for the White Sox.

I don't understand all the anti-Crede sentiment, especially with Uribe sucking more IMHO. Crede plays great D whether you want to admit it or not. He gives you some decent power, but an inconsistant at bat. I think the Yanks would take a nice fielding 3B(if they didn't have A-Rod) who hits 20-25HR's hitting in their 8 slot any day of the week.

I love this. Thanks to JR from us fans. I know he's a big fan too and wants a ring as much as anyone here if not more(even went as far as saying he would trade any of his Bulls Championship Rings for a White Sox Championship). Let's go Git 'R Dunn!!

I love the White Sox. Let's go dominate them tommorow.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jul 14, 2005 -> 07:51 PM) I'd rather see Cotts brought in to face Hafner. Marte tends to do a little worse when he comes in for a second inning of work. Strongly agree. Marte is strickly a one inning pitcher. That's also where Ozzie has gotten into trouble. When he's tried to stretch guys for more than 1 inning(reason why Viz was sucking so much for the most part) who were 1 inning guys.

He Gawn! I still don't agree with putting him in though.

Oh god no. I love Damaso. Favorite reliever on the team, but even I know he shouldn't be put in this situation over Politte. Ozzie Guillen...2005 MicronPC Micro-Manager of the Year.

Welcome. Please keep all hands and feet inside the ride.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jul 14, 2005 -> 03:39 PM) because it's not MVP If it was MVP, the Marte trade wouldn't work for Burnett. I know, because I already tried. Take that.

QUOTE(Adam G @ Jul 14, 2005 -> 03:34 PM) The Score said that the trade would be Burnett and Mike Lowell for McCarthy, Crede, and another prospect or two. Didnt specify the prospects. When was this?

I don't know, but as far as I'm concerned, we got to go battle with the team we have now so let's take it that way. I could care less about rumors at this point in the season. So far, nothing looks realistic and there really hasn't been a whisper strong enough for me to think we might getting Burnett.

I'll Boo, but I won't get rowdy and I won't really care after the announce him. He personally isn't the thorn in our side this season nor should he be. Screw that bum and let's move on. I hope no one does anything stupid and yell nasty profanities. Then again, it's half-price night.

^^They're not to blame for no MVP 2006. As for Madden, of course it's a different gameplay than NCAA. It's like that in college. They're trying to make the games as realistic as possible.
