Thought I'd bump this, kind of scary how right on the money this thread was.

Manny would cost an arm and a leg. This team has a great core right now and I don't want to mess with that, there are ways to upgrade the offense without tearing this team to shreds and that's what trading for Manny would do. I don't want to mess with this pitching staff at all going into the offseason minus trading Damaso.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 12:41 AM) The one thing that does kind of make sense about it. While Marte has struggled and in my mind doesnt deserve a spot. And while we have righty pitchers who get lefties out better than marte. Look at it from a hitters perspective. Nixon for example can hit righties very well but for the most part is clueless against lefties. While that's true 101, for the most part damaso doesnt even let lefties get themselves out as he's always walking them.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 01:22 AM) I don't know if Duque should be the set-up guy or not, but good god, it's beautiful to have the pitching depth we have. So many options. I fricken love it! Our pen is ridiculously deep right now: duke, hermy, cliff, neal, bobby and then hopefully Brandon for the alcs and wow.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 12:12 AM) Ozzie will never do it. He loves Blum's versatility. We need Geoff on the roster. He'll be an important piece if we need to use willie to pinch run for paul or joe.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 11:53 PM) What's the point of having Marte face a lefty if he can't get him out? I really don't get this logic. It makes 0 sense, absolutely 0. Lefties have an obp of nearly .400 against him, that's just ridiculous, he should never face lefties, let alone pitch anymore. He's just not the Marte we all loved two years ago, I miss that guy.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 09:45 PM) Hate to say it but we need 2 lefties. He must stay. No, no we don't. Having a lefty just for the sake of having a lefty is stupid.

Stevenson beats libertyville 31 to 0.

Making it this far already is going to bring in a s*** load of money so hopefully that alone will allow us to keep paul.

I honestly can't pick one.

HE'S THE f***IN MAN. I didn't want him on the postseason roster but he made me eat my f***ing words. THATTA BOY DUKE, UNf***IN REAL PERFORMANCE. :headbang

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:00 PM) A thread of some congratulating the White Sox. Classy. A good friend of mine who's a diehard bosox fan just im'ed me to congratulate me. I hate the bosox and most of their fans but they do have some classy ones.

I can't even explain my feelings right now. So f***in awesome, what a great job by these guys, BOBBY AND THE DUKE--HATS OFF TO YOU GUYS, YOU TWO WERE f***IN AWESOME

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, ALCS HERE WE COME, MY GOD YESSSS

I'm going to pass out, im so nervous.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 05:32 PM) Who's due up? graff, damon, edgar, that means you know who waiting for a baserunner.

OH MY GOD, HERE WE GO. I'VE NEVER BEEN SO NERVOUS IN ALL MY LIFE.

OZZIE....GREAT f***IN JOB

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 05:26 PM) why not pinch run in case of a medium fly ball? Gotta have aj calling the pitches in the 9th.

CMON JUAN, THIS RUN IS A MUST.

WE NEED TO SCORE THIS RUN.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 05:08 PM) yes and than you put Hermy in the ninth. Save that pen. f*** saving the pen, why the f*** would we save the pen. Go all out right here, if we can somehow win this then we got 3 days to rest our pen.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, DUKE I FOREVER LOVE YOU, FOREVER, FOREVER, FOREVER.

NEAL NEEDS TO FACE ORTIZ

OH MY f***IN GOD, EL DUQUE I LOVE YOU FOREVER
