Jon's sinker is flat today he's going to have to hit the corners to be successful tonight.

QUOTE(Ozzie Montana @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 05:13 PM) I hope Podsednik's groin injury doesnt nag. That's why it's very smart to give him a few days off.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 05:07 PM) Wait... Mulder is a career ERA+ of 115. Buehrle is a career ERA+ of 125. Yet Mulder is the ace? Credibility? Down the drain. Last night Nite said he was going to make a thread as to why Mark isn't an ace. I think he did some research and just couldn't find anything to back up his argument, therefore no thread.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 05:09 PM) Let him keep throwing those, he'll get lit up eventually Agreed, but he can't throw that many in the first inning when our hitters aren't expecting it, that's cheating.

Wakefield's cheating. Throwing to many fastballs.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 03:42 PM) If we're going to focus on one appearance here or there: 9 IP 4 H 1 ER against the angels in may 8.1 IP 3 ER against the angels in may AGAIN 8.2 IP 0 ER against the padres 7 IP 2 ER against the A's in july 6 IP 3 ER against the Bosox. yeup That boston game could have been less earned runs to as Aaron actually had a bad jump on a ball that he catches 95 percent of the time. Saying Buehrle hasn't been an ace this year is ridiculous absolutely ridiculous.

The White Sox have indeed lucked their way to 74 wins, they aren't good at all actually, they're actually terrible.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 05:30 AM) Not because he's a junkballer with a funny pitch that most of the NL has not seen? If he throws strikes he'll be fine, if he can't find the zone like he couldn't most of this year he'll get hit around.

QUOTE(knightni @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 12:16 AM) Why would Cincy want Young and Rogowski? They have plenty of 1b/OF position players. They would want SP most likely. Possibly Tracey, Baj and Liotta. Because they're the Reds.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 05:27 AM) That little blurb is from the Cincinatti Enquirer So he wants to stay in Cinci is what you're saying?

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 04:58 AM) Yep they're spluttering down the stretch, and in the 2 games that I saw against Seattle when I went, they didn't look good at all. They do have some damn good prospects though, so the future is rosy. And Figgins and Erstad are a damn good 1-2 punch at the top of that lineup. To me they have lost a lot of their intimidation I guess you can say. They were tough to deal with before cause they could basically play a 6 inning game and then you knew you were toast, this year... not so much.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Mar 1, 2005 -> 10:05 PM) I'll pick someone else Uhh, whoops :banghead I'll take Owens.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 04:52 AM) Yeah, except the Angels pen hasn't been as good as in previous years. Donnelly's got a 3.99 ERA, while the likes of Yan, Peralta, Woods and Gregg all have ERA's above 4. Yes, Shields and K-Rod, are great, but besides those 2, they haven't been all that good, not Cleveland good anyways. With their offense, quite simple really, shut down Vlad and Garret in the middle of that lineup, they'll struggle to score runs. The Jeff Davanon's (who's always a crowd favorite), Juan Rivera's, Steve Finley's (based on his season so far) etc. don't really strike much fear into opposing pitchers. Even Krod and Shields have been having some problems as of late. It seems Donnelly's season went down hill after the finger licking incident at the cell.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 04:08 AM) That kid is probably a legend among his classmates. Probably?

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 13, 2005 -> 04:37 AM) He could be had for something like a 3rd rounder. In the right offense, he's shown he can be a good starting QB in the league (under Spurrier's offense albeit). Either way, Rex Grossman's status as the long - term starter lookd iffy at best right now, which is a shame because he's got talent, he just can't get on the field to show it. I actually like Ramsey, given a fair chance with a decent offensive line I think he can be a solid qb.

QUOTE(HSC's Biggest Fan @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 03:51 PM) Quite Frankly whoever has taken over/in charge of programming at ESPN needs to be fired. The 50/50 show should be its own episode it is interesting but I want SportsCenter for a reason. Now they're having an espn hollywood show :puke . Greasy hit it right on the head on what espn is turning into, it's horrible imo. The only good thing is AC Slater is hosting the Espn hollywood show.

QUOTE(3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 09:25 PM) Haha, NBC interviewed people at Haray Carey's and someone said 'We have Krenzel so hopefully we'll be okay' Why doesn't that surprise me?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:26 PM) I have no idea what any of that means, so I'll just say CONGRATS SOXY!!! Ya, that. Congrats

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 09:03 PM) Buehrle's 3 year splits against the 4 teams who have dominated the A.L. as of late: Red Sox: 3.64 era Angels: 2.74 era Yankees: 4.13 era Twins: 3.89 era Are you just going to ignore these stats nine?

QUOTE(Confederate_48 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 09:17 PM) Artificial turf should be banned Completely agreed, very dangerous.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 09:09 PM) f*** it. You asked for it...(not really) You got it! Addy's Pre-Season QB Rankings 1. Leinart (USC) 2. Whitehurst (Clem) 3. McNeal (TAM) 4. Cutler (Vandy) 5. Croyle (Bama) 6. Clemens (Oregon) 7. Gradkowski (Tol) 8. Pinegar (Fres. St.) 9. Smith (Mizzou) 10. Betts (Miami, OH) In 8 months, this might mean something to me.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 09:07 PM) It's pre-season Blummy (just doesn't have the same ring as Willie), just wait til the real stuff begins ok. Keep calling him willie, blummy sounds retarded.

4.01 era against the A's the last 3 years for the record.
