QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:34 PM) Hello Mr. Overbay my name is Greg Walker, I need to talk to you about your high BA and low power. I have worked with lots of hitters on the whitesox and have a fool proof method of giving you more power for just a slight drop in BA. 2006 Overbay hits 30 homers and has a 212 BA LOL Hilarious

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:27 PM) In terms of talent aquired the Brewers got the much better deal How so?

I'm gonna let someone else handle this. To easy.

He's been awesome, period.

QUOTE(palesox38 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 10:20 PM) I'm sure by now all of you have heard that the Sox are interested in Aubrey Huff, but according to Jayson Stark, that deal would also include Danys Baez. He also stated that the sox want to make that trade as well as trade for Burnett. I say do it. Many may say that it effects chemistry too much, but I think thats a little over-rated. It would be great to pick up Huff, Burnett, and Baez. Two potential blockbusters. What a statement that would be! As much as I like all 3 players, that's not going to happen. Huff's the one I'd want most out of those 3.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 10:02 PM) That's the Felix that I loved of last year -- 9 K's, 0 BB's. I still hold out hope that he can become a decent bullpen filler/fifth starter. But, before I my hope gets back to that, he's gotta get those ridiculous K/BB numbers back. Nice job by Anderson -- 1-for-3, but 3 BB's. Schnurstein with a nice game, too. Dbaho, Jason -- I think I got a foot on the bandwagon... Dan and I are going to kick that bandwagon over Nothing against Micah I'm just not as high on him as others.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 10:06 PM) My response is based on an observation I made durin the 2000 season that has not been addressed as of yet. I wasn't directing my comment towards you. Like I said I completely agree with the concept of getting Overbay and I'd love for the sox to acquire him, all I'm saying is he's not going to all the sudden change his views of the offense and the team on one night. Like I said I'm sure he is looking for a middle of the order left handed hitter ala Overbay or Huff.

Lima was awesome tonight. Other then that the game sucked, it happens, shake it off and go get 'em tomorrow.

This is why none of us are gm's, the tendency to overreact to one game. I'd love to have Overbay and I'm sure Kenny's looking but he's not going to go nuts now because of tonight.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:53 PM) Overbay will cost us more than A. Huff would, I guarantee that. Huff is a FA after this season, and Overbay still has a few more years before he's a FA. Also, Overbay has turned into a fan favorite in Milwaukee. If we do trade for Milwaukee, can we get their announcing crew also? Those guys are great. Huff's not a free agent at the end of the season.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:45 PM) I'll actually agree with you on this. I'll take being 30 over .500 right now. It does matter, as the record is the only thing that counts during the regular season. One game isn't going to bring that record down to .500. And I don't want the Sox to acquire Overbay at all! He's extremely slow, and is no guarantee to handle the stress down the stretch. He had been struggling pretty bad recently, I believe. I like Overbay and I think he'd be a great addition. It's so frusterating though when there is so much overreacting to one stinkin game. We're 10 and 0 against them coming into today, unfortunately a game like this was bound to happen.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:43 PM) He would of been sent down if it wasnt for Credes back. That is well documented. But hey maybe we can start him in front of Gooch. I think he is a difference maker. Have you missed the 2-3 times he's said Willie's been bad this year. The point is every single a game there's a scapegoat. Willie was bad tonight so were a ton of other players.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:41 PM) That we are 30 games over .500. It doesn't mean s*** at the moment. Tonight we played like a team 30 games under. Why? Because Ozzie put in all the s***ty players on the universe! "No, it doesnt make my points moot because if your going to tell me that just because we are 30 games up this team doesnt need improvement? BS. Overpay for Overbay." You know what, I hate to be like this but to be honest you have no f***in clue what you're talking about.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:33 PM) STOP BRINGING THAT UP! See, Willie just blew another play!!!!!!! Stop bringing what up?

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:29 PM) I don't doubt this. I wonder, has Freddy pitched with the crappy line-up this year? Someone else can look that up if they want but he played with Crede as his shortstop and widger as his 3rd baseman. I know it was cause of injuries but it's not like Freddy hasn't had to work around poor defensive lineups before.....

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:26 PM) And if this was Garcia the A team would of been starting Let me guess, cause he's latin, right?

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:26 PM) I dont f***ing know. If you defend Ozzie for putting out a s***tyy lineup and an even more horrible defenseive infield.......you = dumbass. Think it through. Now, I know tomorrow, everyone, cough kalapse cough, will be throwing it in my face that I conceded the season yadda yadda yadda. Bulls***! This is unacceptable! I find it hilarious how you overreact to every game, very laughable.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:19 PM) Nope....he's a product of just a ridiculously pathetic lineup by our manager tonight. What the f*** was Ozzie trying to accomplish tonight by benching 3 players? Maybe he read the thread about starting Willie??

This got ugly, quickly.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:13 PM) TIMO. ?

Yeesh, could Timo get any unluckier today?

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 08:57 PM) Fair enough...just the same way I find it hard to believe you'd ever say one negative thing about anything involving the Sox. We've agreed to disagree in the past, and this is just another scenario. Look no further to Saturday's game, I said the offense was real bad and that they had pitches to hit. Today Lima's just awesome.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 08:53 PM) I disagree that he's been awesome. Lima has poor control tonight, and is getting bailed out by the Sox B squad. Lima is making Wade Miller looks like he had amazing stuff. Even Timo came within a few feet of hitting a 3 run homer against Lima tonight. We've had chances to score some runs, but our players don't seem to be focused at all. To be honest I find it hard to believe you'd give an opposing pitcher credit. The movement on Lima's pitches tonight is just nasty.
