QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 02:36 PM) I was wondering where the Thome/Lightning connection was. Ha, it's still an absolutely beautiful sig though.

QUOTE(ScottyDo @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 01:40 PM) My thoughts exactly. First pressure situation he's seen yet, and I'd rather now than September. Get him some pitches against good hitters in tight situations early, even if it is against the indians. Otherwise you'll never know when the time comes. He could work his way up just like Shingo did in 04. I still think what Ozzie did was the wrong move but whatever, he's going to make more wrong moves this season and he's going to make moves that everyone on here absolutely hates that end up working out.

QUOTE(Brian @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 02:01 PM) > Not even close.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 11:27 AM) You feel bad...I fly into Chicago and end up seeing teams swept. I know one thing though...I did my job, 3-0 in the playoffs last year and well over .500 in the regular season. I say if we see a losing series, they get stuck with the bill Deal.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 11:23 AM) When a guy is a pretty thin starter who throws 92, has TJ surgery, returns as a giant beast that throws 97 with 3 unhittable pitches, then has his body fall apart after a few years, it's pretty damn suspecious. As for Rowand and Garcia on steriods...lol. However the idea Loaiza used steroids could definitely have some merit, watched him last night and he looked about 15 pounds lighter and couldn't throw harder than 84. Gagne has always, always thrown hard. I'm not exactly sure where you got that the only threw 92.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 11:19 AM) Now were destined to see the Sox get swept. I'm afraid to go to another game with Brian and Steve. Everything was going well, we're 1 and 0 and then they show up for the next two games.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 11:17 AM) Plus Chris Shelton...good god what a rule V pick that was. Agreed on Shelton, he's going to be a star. Way to go Pitt.

Very sad, RIP.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 11:12 AM) Doubts about there offense. Pudge, Dmitri, Shelton, Carlos Guillen, Polanco, Maggs, Inge Those are all pretty darn good hitters and I'm sure I'm forgetting someone else. Maggs is looking like his old self too, which will make them even better. This is the best offensive team in the AL Central and one of the best in baseball. I've said that since day 1 too and they will prove just that. I think overall I'd take the Indians offense over Detroits. Individually Detroit has one hell of an offense as you've noted but last year they couldn't get a clutch hit to save their lives.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 02:11 AM) They have played 2 games vs KC and versus Texas they hit 6 HRs off knuckleballer R.A. Dickey. The Tigers are going to be better this year, probably 3rd in the Central, but I don't see them moving ahead of the Sox or Indians. 4th.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 02:16 AM) Saved by the Bell = greatest show ever! ^^^

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 01:25 AM) You guys are going to be at the Great American park too. Ahh f*** and to think i was going to get away from you all Oh way to go Brian, you planned the exact same trip as Jason. :headshake

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 10:46 PM) I've heard this can be really serious, potentally career-ending if they can't get the surgery right this time. Two surgeries can do alot of damage to tissues in your elbow. Not saying I'm right about it cause I never was a pitcher so I would have to ask some guys who have had more than one surgery. I pray he can come back and dominate like he once did. I think he's done to be honest. I hope I'm wrong as the guy really is a ton of fun to watch pitch but his arm is a mess right now.

Cheat is going to be crushed.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 11:09 PM) Cinny should be fun..... :puke Ay, who votes that only Steve pays for gas?

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 09:59 PM) Mike Davis will be named UAB Head Basketball Coach on Friday... It's a done deal. Good for him. I hope he does well.

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 05:55 PM) athlete of the week this week out of 50 schools to choose from So are you going to be pitching for the sox one of these days or what?

A Rowand jersey with 44 as the number.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 09:27 PM) You love it. ^^^

Honestly, what the hell is the point of starting this thread? We've all had our say on this topic mostly because of you defending them. The only reason for you to start this thread is to try and create an argument.

Well good news for my fantasy team as I have Baez.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 09:19 PM) The Catch-All MLB Thread is there for a reason, you know... Aaron deserves his own thread for every at bat.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 04:00 PM) Fair enough, but also it could be harder in the sense that you are no longer in a zone or hot. Much, much harder.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 01:47 PM) Who the hell are you? LOL, I knew that was coming.
