QUOTE(iWiN4PreP @ Mar 13, 2006 -> 10:16 PM) True True, and he is having a huge WBC if i recall correctly. casey kotchman in LAA also might start and if he does expect huge production

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Mar 15, 2006 -> 12:49 PM) Nope. I think this is a great move by N.O. Adding a pro-bowler and vet at QB who someone else did all the hard work of developing, combined with adding top-of-a-loaded-draft talent, yowza. I mean, San Diego should have at least found a way to trade Brees for something after they franchised him if they were going to go with Rivers. Especially last year when the QB Market was so thin they could have gotten a ton for him. Instead they get nothing. That team could have been absolutely loaded. So now i wonder what the saints do with aaron brooks. Possibly trade him as bait in the draft. San Diego made a nice move Rivers should do well with all the options he has on offense.

What a coincidence.

Our players have had a nice classic so far, its nice to see vazquez improving since last year, this classic should be a big confident boost to all our players who do well

QUOTE(THEWOOD @ Mar 14, 2006 -> 08:07 AM) I can not wait to see him dominate! thats a lie QUOTE(thedoctor @ Mar 14, 2006 -> 11:19 AM) i am not as sold on conley as i am on oden. conley will be a nice player, no doubt. i am not sure he will start, though, and i'm not sure he's better than fellow recruit daequan cook. isnt conley odens friend? conley and oden will both start, im sure some players from ohio st are gonna go pro unless they really have the desire to try to win this thing next year

I like how south africa joined the wbc, its good to see baseball is spreading around the world. Hell they might not be good but if they improve and get something going over there this sport of baseball could become a really liked national sport.

QUOTE(Fourofakind @ Mar 11, 2006 -> 10:15 PM) The answer to that question, we may never know... I was really looking forward to it, kinda surprised someone like soxfan1 or knight didnt take charge or someone else. Really doesnt sound too hard just give a due date give them a topic to make a sig on and put up a poll on whos sig is the best. And no Im not going to run anything.

As mentioned by others brian will start, cintron and mack will backup but these things might change over time

1) A White Sox starter will win 20 games (might as well leave it the same ) Fiction 2) Joe Borchard will get the last roster spot Fiction 3) Lopez will be the 2nd left handed reliever Fact 4) Thome will hit more than 35 homers Fiction 5) Uribe will still be hitting 2nd at the All-star break Fact 6) Javier Vazquez will win 15 games Fact 7) Brian Anderson will hit over .260 Fact 8) Jon Garland and Jose Contreras will have ERA's under 4 (please elaborate if not) Fact 9) Scott Podsednik will steal more than 45 bases Fact 10) Bobby Jenks will save more than 35 games Fiction 11) Tadahito Iguchi will hit over .280 Fact 12) Jermaine Dye will play more than 145 games Fact 13) Joe Crede will hit over .260 Fact 14) Paul Konerko will hit over 40 homeruns and drive in more than 100 again Fiction 15) The Sox will improve their team ERA (3.61) Fiction 16) The Sox will make a trade for a major league player at the deadline Fact 17) The Sox will finish in the top 5 in the AL in runs scored Fact 18) Jermaine Dye will drive in 90 runs Fact 19) The Sox will win the AL Central (this one better be fact ) Fact 20) The Sox will return to the World Series Fact

derrek lee puts USA on top with a hr

This game is good so far, I expected a low scoring game Mexico has a nice group of pitchers same with usa.

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Mar 7, 2006 -> 04:48 PM) Well, maybe. Once you get past the #6 3B it's a bit debatable. He was a monster 2 years ago, but I can't base too much on that. I'd say he's #11 at best, which makes him one of the bottom couple of starters. I wouldn't feel too comfortable if he were my starter based on what he did last year. Ive gotten arod in all my drafts pretty much so i dont need to worry about third but i would take beltre if available

USA game just started

well safe to say this one is over 10-5

Damn Ortiz just crushed that, Venezuelas got some work to do now next inning.

nice play by Tejada hope hes alright

well 6-5

WOW!!, Cabrera is on fire, thats a difficult call to make.

Marte is pulled in comes julian tavarez

Hey marte is in for dominicans

QUOTE(rangercal @ Mar 7, 2006 -> 03:13 PM) This has been a very entertaining game to watch. It is crazier than a cubs/sox atmosphere imo. yeah its been a good game, should come down to the very end

Edgardo ALfonzo of Venezuela hit a homer 6-4 dominicans

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Mar 7, 2006 -> 01:04 AM) oo, let me play. Lets see, I'd like Johan Santana cause he's good, I'd like Albert Pujols cause he's good, I'd like Ichiro Suzuki cause he's good, and I'd like Eric Gagne cause he's canadian. edit: I'm just giving you s*** by the way, cause I thought we were just picking one player. Too hard to pick just one, but ok ok Id choose Bobby Abreu. Happy

shouldnt be difficult could just pm people and give them a time limit and if no action go by a mock draft i guess

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Mar 6, 2006 -> 02:06 PM) I'm in the process of trying to commit highway robbery. One of my targets has Utley, Carlos Lee, and Bonds. The other has Tejada, Beltran, and Dunn. I'd love to find a way to get 2 out of 3 from one of these guys. go for it, shouldnt be hard to pull off getting bonds but tejada and beltran they might want quite a bit
