Shingo has a new pitch!
I think it's a screwball. If it is that's great. The Knuckler would be great too, but I don't know how much of it would work against lefties.

Sun-Times pre-season take on new Sox
All guys healthy, I would take Dye as the best OFer. Has a strong arm, former GG and makes good reads.

Sox trade Escobar to Washington Nationals
Isn't Escobar considered to be a better prospect, even now?

MVP Baseball 2005
They probably will have Iguchi ready for when they do the updates. They usually have updates ready within the first 3 days of launch. $30 bucks too??? That's amazing.

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 12:48 PM) I definitely want in on a daily head-to-head Live draft league. I'm a new to the Soxtalk league but I'd love to get in a league with some veterans. Put me in this same one. If league 1 is like that I would like to be in it. I'll be in 2 if need be.

Batting 3rd
I'm the one you could say I compared Posednik to Gload. It really wasn't a comparison. What I said is that you can't use the sample size of Gload from one year and think he's going to replicate that production or anything near that, else we would be calling Posednik a HOFer. It's on page 6 if you want to read it.

Batting 3rd
I don't understand how your going to take a small ass sample size from one year and compare it with Carl Everett's career. There's a reason why Gload didn't cut it on so many teams. Everett is a better hitter. He hits for power has had clutch hits. Gload is nice as a bench player, but if your going to take one year samples, let's talk about Scott Posednik being in the HOF. I also don't get this talk for Rowand as a #3. He had one pretty good season. His career stats do not indicate he should be batting #3. Let's see what he does this year before we annoint him king. He should get 85 rbi's this year if he wants to be at the #3 slot and hit for a high OBP and avg. Until then let's not talk about him batting in the 3 hole.

Johan's Contract Situation
They'll trade him for a can't miss prospect or he'll end up in pinstripes or with the Red Sox. The Red Sox(if having trouble with their pitching) could trade Hanley Ramirez for him. He'll be the ace for their future so they won't miss a beat.

Ex-Sox Player Admits to Steroids!
I actually cheered for the guy. He seemed pretty cool with the team. I'm not saying he's wrong, because he's wrong about a lot of things, but it wouldn't surprise me if all those players did do steroids.

Jason Grilli...
I actually think Diaz is better. The problem with Diaz is that every time they brought him up to start, instead of doing so a couple of days earlier(when they knew they were going to need him) they brought him up the day of his turn. That's bad when you have to wake up early in the morning to catch a flight to whereever, not being able to go over pitches with your catcher and then as soon as you get there it's pretty much, put on your uni and go out there. The one shot he was given when he didn't have to fly in for the gameday was when he faced the Cubs at home and he did pretty well for 6 innings(I think he only gave up 3 runs that game). What the Sox need to do is when they know they need an emergency start from someone in their minors, they need to have them fly in a day or two earlier than their start date.

As long as it's not a relevant Sox player.

MLB.tv
I personally liked it. You should have at least Cable internet though if you're going to watch it to get the streaming down. I connected the computer to the TV so I basically had Extra Innings package. I personally liked it and am going to get it again this year. This is especially good if you're somewhere else and still want to watch a game as most people have broadband connections these days.

I dont get it....
Sox will finish no lower than 2nd.

Everett a fit for the Cubs?
QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 31, 2005 -> 03:59 PM) He will have a better year than podesednik. You will see. I think so too. I don't know what yet, but something tells me Pod will repeat last year and try to swing with the fences because there's shorter distances. He'll still steal bases, but I don't see Pod doing that hot.

Lineup if we still had Maggs
if we signed Pujols, Bonds, Ruth, A-rod, Tejada, Soriano, Pierre, Wells, and Ramirez what would our lineup be like????

Why does everybody want Willie gone so bad?
I personally like the guy. I think he got the shaft here in Chicago, but I guess people will never admit that. He only played one full season. His defense is good enough to play backup short or starting 2b. His offense against righties was decent considering he was a rookie and I think he can still improve alot. I see him hitting .300 and having 40 sb's in 2 more years. It's just the White Sox aren't willing to work with him.

Are the Bulls for real?
dont see 47 games happening and in the east, that would get you around a top 5 seeding...Bulls will probably make the playoffs, but will get knocked out in the first or second, depends on seeding. If they get the 6 slot, they should make the second round because they would face a Atlantic division team

White Sox Wristbands....
QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 22, 2005 -> 08:23 PM) Depends on who you are. Two people sent money without letting me know their screen names. You could send him mine as I'll get mine some other time. Reason being I'm not living at home, I'm living in a dorm right now, so yeah. On behalf of everyone else though, thanks
