QUOTE(qwerty @ Feb 22, 2005 -> 10:10 PM) If gordon keeps doing what he is doing. Can you still sit him? I say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Feb 21, 2005 -> 10:54 PM) Did I say they should? Nope. I was explaining why it was there in the first place, I didn't know any sound was with it, none showed up on the Flash. Well, that thing should be removed anyways, probably the worst avatar there has ever been at soxtalk.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Feb 20, 2005 -> 02:38 PM) Yeah, the Tribe were 80-82 last year. Man, I feel like an idiot, I didn't read the whole post and I thought he was talking about the sox.

QUOTE(whitesox61382 @ Feb 20, 2005 -> 02:31 PM) This is a team that will probably finish below .500 again this year Again??

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Feb 20, 2005 -> 12:13 PM) Me thinks putting Rowand in RF is very dumb. But I think he'll be in center to start the year, we haven't even played a damn ST game. Well, considering the one spot we know Aaron isn't playing is rf, I agree with you, that would be dumb

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Feb 20, 2005 -> 02:38 AM) Just some tidbits here; That would be awesome if Iguchi can hit .290. How great would that be if El duque is actually fully healthy for once, man it would be nice to have him in the rotation for the majority of the year.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 19, 2005 -> 02:51 PM) Santana, Radke >>>>> Buehrle/Garcia It's debatable between which 1-2 is better but there is no way imo that santana and radke is a great deal better then Mark and Freddy. Obviously Johan is superior to Mark but Freddy is a better pitcher then Brad. Radke has been very inconsistant in his career has a higher career era then Freddy, Freddy is younger and still has a chance to get better because of the type of stuff he has.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Feb 19, 2005 -> 06:50 AM) Interesting news here from Ozzie; If true, this is a dumb idea. Juan batted .264 against lefties with a .302 obp, while batting .293 with a .340 obp against righties. If Ozzie wants to bat scott 2nd against lefties, gooch should be leading off imo.

QUOTE(CubKilla @ Feb 19, 2005 -> 12:29 PM) You all need to lay off of the White Sox Kool-Aid. Anytime you have Frank Thomas on the shelf and you've lost a Maggs and a CLee, you're..... more than likely..... going to go down in power rankings. These White Sox fan sites have become eerily similar to Cub fan rantings lately. Haven't you heard? This is the Cubs' year. With the exception of PK and arguably Dye, this line-up is full of hit-it and run-it-out types of guys. The Sox should be down in the power rankings. And lets not write the Indians off before '05 starts. They finished..... what..... 3 games back of the Sox last year? And, I hate to say it, but the Indians should only get better. b****, b****, b****, b****, b****. Go complain about Jerry some more because that's all you seem to care about.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Feb 19, 2005 -> 12:36 PM) I'm glad that we picked up AJ Pierzynski for the blazing speed he brings to the table. And, I'm sure as hell glad that Iguchi doesn't have any power whatsoever. Oh yeah -- Uribe and Crede, no power there either. Rowand? Yeah, he's a grinder and a slasher, he's a hit it and run-it-out type of guy. But hey, with the exception of Dye, Konerko, Pierzynski, Everett, Iguchi, Crede, Uribe, Everett, and Rowand -- our whole lineup up is full of hit-it and run-it-out type of guys. Great assessment, Killa! BTW -- Where've ya been? I guess you didn't believe half of us in saying to give the offseason a chance to get started before you started b****ing. Haven't seen much of you, lately, though. Funny, isn't it...

QUOTE(YoungstownIndians @ Feb 19, 2005 -> 11:01 AM) Look at the lineup. Look at the All Stars? I think we have you numbered there.... But yes these mean nothing. But I think my Indians will be at least 2. I have to give the Twins my #1 for now. They have it 3 years running. You know you don't know much about baseball when you compare teams by power rankings and the amount of allstars teams have.

Brian......you guys kicked our ass, 'nuff said.

QUOTE(ISF @ Feb 14, 2005 -> 03:46 PM) Carlos Lee outproduces Albert Pujols.

QUOTE(knightni @ Feb 14, 2005 -> 01:04 PM) Thanks Santo=Dorf, but I found a pic. Great job knightni

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Feb 14, 2005 -> 12:06 AM) I don't know about hte Sabean comment. Don't they win between 90 and 100 games every year? We should be so lucky Barry Bonds, take him off that team and they're absolutely awful.

Just testing

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Feb 13, 2005 -> 10:06 PM) LOL! Whatever... :rolly Maggs came into the league almost exactly one year before Drew. Career stats... Drew: 127 HR, 373 RBI, .287 BA, .904 OPS Maggs: 187 HR, 703 RBI, .307 BA, .889 OPS Maggs has had 3807 career ABs in just over seven full seasons. In contrast, Drew has only had 2415 ABs in just over six full seasons because he can't stay healthy. Unless Maggs' knee condition is beyond repair, he'll continue out-produce Drew over the course of their careers. I'm not saying Drew is automatically going to be better then maggs, however he arguably had a year that maggs has never accomplished, you can't just assume that maggs will for sure have a better season.

BOOOOOOOOOOO. Congrats Greasy, good choice aboz

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Feb 13, 2005 -> 09:24 PM) Agreed that they overpaid for Maggs but, unless Maggs' bum knee lingers, there's no way that Drew will out-perform him. Not necessarily true. Drew had an ops of over 1 something maggs has never done before.

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Feb 13, 2005 -> 07:26 PM) He was after the updates is what i'm saying. I know when he was in the game. I own it. Right. So exactly what Tony said applies, he has to play a game in the majors to be in the game. He played some games before the updates, therefore he was available. Understand?

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Feb 13, 2005 -> 07:24 PM) Then why did they put Kaz Matsui in it last year? For fun? He wasn't in the game.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Feb 13, 2005 -> 07:19 PM) i think if they are given major league contracts and come from japan they would make exceptions.. Nope, no Kaz last year, no shingo.

QUOTE(whitesox91403 @ Feb 13, 2005 -> 06:49 PM) I guess if they couldn't send Escobar to AAA this is alright. I was big on Escobar, I wanted him to make this team. He had 0 chance to make the team. Just to many outfielders.

:puke

QUOTE(qwerty @ Feb 12, 2005 -> 11:51 AM) That needs to be changed though. Agreed....... QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Feb 12, 2005 -> 12:45 PM) They need to get rid of the fans' votes while they are at it too. .........and Agreed.
