QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:36 PM) Here's a question: A few years ago Krod got on the playoff roster for the Angels through a loop hole, something with an injury occuring, I don't remember exactly what happened. Anyways, my question is could Frank's injury be some kind of loophole to get another player on the playoff roster?? I know he's off the 25 man but he hasn't been put on the 60 day dl for some reason, I don't know just speculating. Ok, so the krod thing a few years ago did involve somebody heading to the 60 day dl, in other words I do think if Frank is put on the 60 day we'd be able to add a player not on the 25 man as of august 31.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:42 PM) Pods is obviously better than Timo, but he's not nearly as good as most people on this board give him credit for I love how 'most' people on this board are wrong but you're right.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:30 PM) There has to be some kind of move that KW can make to help the offense. Nobody can tell me that there is nothing at all he can do to upgrade something. I think it was you that I had this conversation with. Everyone is going to use the excuse of having Pods back as a reason to stand pat this deadline. No, Kenny traded for Griffey during the non waiver deadline but it got rejected and he's still trying to trade for him now. People bring up Giles but why would san diego trade him when they're going to win their division. Do you want to trade for Dmitry Young just to trade for a guy when Carl is just as good as him? There's just not much we can do right now.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:28 PM) But would you rather have Adkins or Anderson on your playoff roster? Good point. I forgot about that.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 08:25 PM) f***ing.Bulls***. I can't believe Adkins is still on this team. At this point, it makes no sense to keep anderson up here, let him get ab's in charlotte for the next week. EDIT: Well, actually 3 days.

Boo, I picked up TJ as a backup in fantasy hoping he'd start all year.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 07:15 PM) The 2nd half has been far from Consistent. Even I can see that Rowand. And when I say team, I guess I just mean the O, because the pitching has been there all season long. I still just don't have alot of faith in our bats. However, I obviously saw the way this team played the 1st half, and truly believe they can play that way again, and it wasnt just smoke and mirrors. That's fair, offensively we've been very streaky but because of the pitching as an overall team we've been fine for the most part minus that few weeks. I understand what you said about the playoffs though. For me I just want to make sure we get in and we'll definitely be dangerous because of our big 3, should be a fun ride.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 07:11 PM) It's basically September. I know what we have in this team. Its a team built on great pitching, and a very good bullpen, with a streaky Offense. Isnt that what we thought coming into the year? There is a very good chance we go 3 and out in the playoffs this year, a very good chance. There is also the chance that our bats get going in late September, and we make things happen in the playoffs, a good chance. This team is flat out a streaky team, and we all just have to hope to catch the right streak. Once again I guess this is how you interpret streaky but I don't consider us streaky at all. We had 1 stretch where we played absolutely horrible but besides that we've been pretty consistant.

It'll be either the Marlins or Astros. The Astros might have a a bit of an advantage cause all the NL East teams most likely still have some games to beat up on each other.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 11:17 PM) I can't believe someone is actually saying that Rowand44 is negative. You don't think I'm negative fathom?

QUOTE(rangercal @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 10:57 PM) Life as a Sox Fan: Too many f***en pessimists around you. He gave up a double on a later pitch . Sexson did not hit the 102 pitch. If you all want to complain get your cry baby asses back in the game thread. Let some of us enjoy the moment. Some of us have different ways of enjoying the game of baseball. I love the 100mph fastball. Who's complaining? I love Bobby but I love him because he can get guys out not because he can light up the gun but that's just me.....

26.

I never doubted ozzie or Marte for a second. *runs away* 26

Wow, wow, wow, wow.

Thanks Mr. Hargrove. I'll take a righty vs. Dam anyday of the week over a lefty.

I wish Damaso and Neal threw right handed.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 10:42 PM) He did allow a double on the play. That seems to be forgotten. I love Bobby as much as anyone but who cares what he hits on the gun, don't get me wrong it's fun to watch but it really doesn't matter......

QUOTE(One Pump Chump @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 02:56 AM) To get back on topic... I have talked to redandwhite about this before. Ozzie is not the best manager in the game...not even close. Probably not even a top 15 manager. And, IMO, he is probably one of the worst, if not THE worst, in-game managers in the league...and while that is an opinion, the mass would agree. But without Ozzie...are the Sox 78-47? Is there any other manager in the game that could have the Sox at 78-47 right now? I don't think so. So ya, he is pretty much Ditka. These guys would run through a wall for this guy(or at the very least, into a wall), and you can see it day in and day out. This basically sums up how I feel. He's an absolutely horrendous in game manager but this team is no where near as good without him. I love his managing style as well.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 07:13 PM) like, i love him more than hawk.

HAHAHAHAHA, Great job Cheat

Stevenson kicked ass.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 04:09 PM) Message boards? Um, no. Feeling the pressure of being consider ESPN radio's Chicago affiliate's "baseball insider"...perhaps. Now, I'm not saying the guy is making up stories. Wait... Is that what I'm saying? I don't know. It can't be a good thing when you don't know what you're saying.

Lets assume Bruce is right here, that still brings us right back to where we were on the 31st, needing the reds ownership to sign off on the deal. I'd absolutely love for this to happen and I'm already getting my hopes up but I just don't see it happening.
