QUOTE(YASNY @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 02:03 PM) I wouldn't be adverse to going into next year with Jenks and Hermanson as our closers. That's what I WANT to go into the season with, I just want lefty long reliever who could be used to get lefties out as well.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 02:01 PM) They can pitch tomorrow... they do have an off day before we play our series. Ya, it'd be nice though to give everyone important tomorrow off and go from there. Hell..just let viz and damaso pitch tomorrow again.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 01:57 PM) In the offseason we need to get a lefty who can get lefties out. We got one, another wouldn't hurt though.

It's unbelievable how bad Damaso has become.

Good boy Damaso. Even though this game means nothing I really want to win it now.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 01:22 PM) No, NY would only take the AL East if Cleveland loses tomorrow in addition to today, with Boston getting the WC. -- A win today guaranteed them nothing worse than a playoff. Even with a loss today, Cleveland is only 1 game out of a WC, and if they were to win tomorrow. ---- Anouncers are convinced it's Buehrle/Garcia in game 1-2... I love having the ace in the hole. Actually, a win for the yanks and a loss for the Indians and they do clinch the east as they hold the tie breaker over Boston.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 01:12 PM) Damn. I don't want Boston in the first round. Honest question: Would you rather play the Angels?? To be honest, it does not matter to me either way, just want to hear your views.

I'm loving this.

Timo is having a hard luck day that's for sure.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 12:50 PM) Damnit, Carl. Well, I was hoping for two things today -- no injuries, and a good start from Garland. Halfway there; real encouraging performance by Jon today. Maybe one more inning then done? I think that's the way to go.

Who says Gload can't play the outfield

QUOTE(JimH @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 12:26 PM) Boy, the White Sox are not making it easy on Cleveland. As frustrating as it's been to be a White Sox fan these past few weeks, it has got to be really rough to be a Cleveland fan this weekend. Talk about nail biting. No doubt. I'm surprised we don't have any runs yet, our regulars are swinging the bat pretty well so far, not much to show for it though.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 10:48 AM) thats a little more respectable than yesterday.....what i find funny though is that you have rowand, AJ and everett who have all batted #3 this year, yet we bat a guy who hasnt been on the team all year at 3rd? i guess i just dont get it Ya, like Jimbo's said I'm sure that's where they are batting for the postseason with Jermaine in the 3 hole, that definitely makes me happy.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 10:59 AM) Oh boy, Gload in the OF. This should be fun. We should have put Scotty in center just for fun.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Oct 1, 2005 -> 10:51 AM) Willie is gonna be on the postseason roster. He's a huge asset as a pinch runner. I agree, Willie is such a valuable asset. If true this is the right move imo. As 101 pointed out Viz has been a solid reliever for a while now, the Duke has had 1 good relief appearance we really dont know what to expect out of him in that role and to be honest, he's been terrible for a while as well. This was the move I was hoping the team would make so I'm hoping this is true.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 11:58 PM) I'm not "slurping" my boys, anyone whose a fan of baseball should be able to recognize what David Ortiz has done and acknowledge it. You're obviously having trouble doing so. approval to SoSH? what are you talking about? Everyone here knows that Ortiz is a great player and is having a fantastic season but how is it historical? I think that's the point Punch is trying to make.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 10:56 PM) Well Maggz isnt as tied to the organization as Frank is and now he is on a rival team so whats wrong with that. He did say he was happy for some people which says he had friends here he cared about. You're correct, I misread the quote a bit, I apologize.

:notworthy :notworthy Also, don't want to bring this article down but for anyone who didn't think Magglio was a jag--there ya go.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 09:12 PM) :uhoh

:headbang What a season. But it ain't done yet, lets get 11 more starting October 4th.

QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 10:00 PM) That way we guarentee that whoever we face in the ALDS will have at least one starter already used -- and 2 starters if its NNY or BOS. That's not necessarily true.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 09:13 PM) Ah Gload! Bring in Jenks, win the f'n game, and let Baj and Sanders do their thing the next few days. I'm with you here fathom, we win tonight and we really have nothing to play for.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 09:03 PM) I think the Sox hold the tiebreak over the Yanks if they end up with the same record. They don't though over the Red Sox. Correct, a win or red sox loss and we clinch it.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 08:51 PM) I don't get it: We've basically could care less the whole game, but now we're going to use our entire bullpen? I agree, atleast we can rest those guys on saturday or sunday and then the offday monday

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 08:06 PM) Hafner had two strikes against him. He threw a rolling slider high over the middle of the plate. He was lucky it wasnt elevated. It was on the outside corner but still up. Marte is just terrible right now so he's not going to get many breaks around here.
