One usually leads to the other. Uninterested usually = bad in this game

Garland looks uninterested, like everyone on the team in the spring

LOL. Our scrubs suck so much. The only way they could win is have the tying run thrown out at the plate

QUOTE(fathom @ Mar 2, 2007 -> 05:40 PM) Fixed thats true too. we really dont hear anything bout these guys other than that tho

haha. our fringe players suck so bad in spring

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 2, 2007 -> 04:13 PM) I have no problem with him ripping on McCarthy, but again, a stupid shot on Anderson. If Ozzie had started the commie that wore #44 in CF everyday in 2006, we'd have made the playoffs, so he should try and not let us remember that even happened. Uh, no we wouldn't have.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Mar 2, 2007 -> 04:05 PM) It's hard to have proof when I don't know the man personally, it's called speculation and deduction from what we do know, it's basically all we can go on. And I've debated the second part up and down for the past year and a half, I'm really not in the mood to get into it again. If you'd like you can google site:soxtalk Kalapse Guillen and you should get some good answers to that. And if the sucky players didn't play then I'm pretty sure Mackowiak would have been play LF last year. He platooned s***ty ass outfielder Pablo Ozuna (I

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Mar 2, 2007 -> 04:04 PM) What we know is most claim to love to play for him. There are some that have no use for him. Show me some evidence of those some. I can show you tons that say they do. That's all we can go on. Everything else is conjecture and BS

QUOTE(fathom @ Mar 2, 2007 -> 04:04 PM) You know I disagree with that. BTW, congrats on your Cavs ACC season going on. Man what a year! Playing for ACC Champs on Saturday. Made it a little bit harder to get into baseball this year.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Mar 2, 2007 -> 03:59 PM) That's because they are veterans and professionals, and realize, unlike their manager, that saying whatever you feel like saying, and even being blunt and telling the truth, isn't always the best way to deal with the press. Believe me, Ozzie Guillen could easily be so embarrassed if people mentioned some of the things he's done during his White Sox career, he has tons of skeletons in his closet, and they would be just being honest. You can't tell me the Sox players don't mind any of Ozzie's act. We can only go on what we know, and what we know is that almost all of them love to play for him.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Mar 2, 2007 -> 03:49 PM) It has nothing to do with Brian Anderson's feelings or mental capacity it has to do with an unfair bias Guillen seems to hold against certain players, specifically the youngsters. We have zero proof of this. And it's not like he could get away from playing them because they have SUCKED? That wouldn't fit though I guess. If they are good, they play. If they suck, they don't.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ Mar 2, 2007 -> 03:45 PM) No way, that never happens. It's tradition!

LOL. I've missed these threads

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Mar 1, 2007 -> 05:53 PM) Wait, when did Pinella's team take the field? Haha. You're right. thats confusing. Didn't even notice that. Fixed now tho

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Mar 1, 2007 -> 05:49 PM) What's the final score against Colorado? It's currently 8-5 Arizona entering the 9th inning. Colorado's scrubs 4 Our scrubs 3

Can Tracey please accept that trade offer from KW? Please?

Haha. SS where most of our regulars aren't playing. It's going to get ugly.

Two L's coming up. I love our main lineups/bench on the 25, but beyond that, our non roster invitees and fringe minor leaguers always suck something fierce in ST.

LOLOLOL. I've missed these things. So hilarious

QUOTE(Jimbo @ Feb 28, 2007 -> 10:46 AM) Ill be watching the game...yay dude Kudos to Steve for the first gamethread. lets go you sox Sorry to dissapoint, but I don't believe the game is on mlb.tv today. Schedule is linked below http://mlb.mlb.com/mediacenter/index.jsp#20070228

FWIW, I don't think today's game is on MLB.tv. Tomorrow's game looks to be on mlb.tv but today is just gameday audio of the score.

Nice. Looks like we are going to have our worst team in 12 years. Do they project most of our lineup to DIE in PECOTA? Are we going to have to play with only 7 people in the lineup (though at times it seemed like we did last year - zing!). I mean seriously. Half our team would have to get hurt in order for that to happen. We had an awful 8-9-1 for most of the year and still scored 850+ runs (can't remember how far over we were. I'm almost certain we were over though). Haha.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Feb 26, 2007 -> 05:30 PM) I've seen two pictures of Anderson after he has hit a ball this spring; both have been to RF. That one, by the angle of his eyes, looks like it had some power behind it. It's going to be tough to tell what he is going to do until the regular season. I remember him stinging the ball at times last year in ST. He hit .309 .360 .485 last spring. And I'm not necessarily posting this in reply to your post. Just in general.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Feb 22, 2007 -> 02:51 PM) Eh, I never said the suck had to be consecutive. He was bad about as often as he was good in '05 and was bad more often than he was good in '06. Eh, not really. He was mediocre in April, awful in August (injury) and good to really good the rest of his months. Doesn't really matter though. He sucked last year. Hopefully we at least get a chance to see him play injury free. I'm not sure we will though.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Feb 22, 2007 -> 02:36 PM) Over the course of his career Podsednik has been bad more often than he has been good. This includes a 1.5 year run of suck that he is currently on and he's coming off a devastating injury for a speed guy which often results in a few months of recuperating and nagging soreness afterwards. To rely on this guy again this year, to not have a single acceptable backup plan is just stupid. 1 year of suck....He had a bad August when he was hurt. Then when healthy, and a great September and incredible October.
