QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 08:04 PM) There are a few guys from the 40-man roster that could be designated for assignment to make room for Iguchi... Pedro Lopez Paulino Reynoso Matt Smith Sean Tracey I doubt anyone would claim these scrubs. Green??

Leave Timo alone, he's here and you love him

QUOTE(JimH @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 07:25 PM) This afternoon I heard $4.7M with a team option for the 3rd year. Not bad. Other than this middle IF situation they're done and ready to go. I've got a question for you Jim, before you said you wouldn't trade Willie for graff, with the signing of Iguchi do you think it would be a good deal if Tony is healthy?? I know that's highly unlikely with the sox rarely trading in division but that deal just resurfaced in my mind.

A shingo and Iguchi banner could be pretty cool but I'll leave it up to the creative one.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 07:21 PM) I really don't want Lowell, and if we traded Garland, we have that hole in our rotation again. We really don't have any holes right now. Let's leave it that way. Ya, don't mess with this group, find a utility man and head to tucson.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 07:13 PM) Some of these predictions are crazy. What are your predictions then aj, don't hold back on us

QUOTE(GASHWOUND @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 05:52 PM) Well, I read 2 or 3 pages..I got the jist Although when Frank comes back we'll have the all-mighty-righties...I always like balance in a line-up..but I guess if the hitter is a good hitter doesn't matter.. Great signing The offense isn't that balanced righty/lefty wise but it is balanced in a way it hasn't been before and that has having different types of players. We now have guys who can run and guys who can bang the ball out of the park, this team can manufacture runs or hit the 3 run homer, this is something we haven't had.

QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 03:45 PM) Did you read what I said... I lowered his grade because he hasn't gotten rid of Willie fast enough. Like I've been saying for the last two weeks he hurts us on the bench because he has no versatility. I want him gone ASAP now that a replacement has been brought in. What the hell does it matter how fast he gets rid of willie?? It's called patience, kenny has to make one more move to get a veteran who can play short and then we'll see what happens with willie.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 11:23 AM) No, that's YOUR lineup for 2005. Guillen already stated in soxfest this lineup.. Podsednik Uribe Dye Konerko Everett Rowand Pierzynski Crede Harris Now I think it will be.. Podsednik Iguchi Dye Konerko Everett Rowand Pierzynski Uribe Crede I think that'll be a good chance to be the lieup for the first game of the season. Agreed, except opening day I wouldn't be surprised to see Iguchi leading off and spod batting 2nd since we're facing cc, I remember a couple times at the beginning of last year he'd lead off juan and bat willie 2nd against lefties. Also at soxfest he sounded unsure whether he wanted to lead scott off against left handers.

I'm expecting at worst .270/.340, I'm not really sure about the power numbers though and I'm not concerned with those either.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 11:34 AM) A+++++++++++++++ Agreed, I'm so f***in stoked with this team, I can't wait for the year to start, he's filled every single hole we had coming into the offseason, absolute fantastic job.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 02:58 PM) Can somebody tell me if Iguchi bats left, right, or switch? He's a righty.

Wow, great f***in job kenny. Lineup as of now without frank: pods iguchi dye pauly everett rowand aj uribe crede Wow, that's one deep lineup.

The last thing this offseason has been is dull, whether you like the changes or not it's been an exciting offseason.

QUOTE(Spod=Ratings @ Jan 23, 2005 -> 11:30 PM) My wallpaper may have jsut changed. Gold you are great at this He's a god at this stuff, all 3 are damn good but the mark and freddy one was originially made for me so it has a special place in my heart

QUOTE(Goldmember @ Jan 23, 2005 -> 11:04 PM) http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?sh...ndpost&p=563024 Very cool, my favorite is still the mark and freddy one though.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Jan 23, 2005 -> 09:48 PM) I wasn't able to find any video of the fight, but I did manage to find some still footage.

QUOTE(Mr. Showtime @ Jan 23, 2005 -> 09:32 PM) Don't knock wrestling, brother. I'll be forced to cut a promo on you.... oooooooohhhhhhhh yyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

QUOTE(Mr. Showtime @ Jan 23, 2005 -> 08:12 PM) I'm not creative, I just happen to like the phrase... I even added Dye to make it work. Buehrle is in because my guy Aboz wanted to see him in it. Don't mind me, my computer went psycho and the old banner got cut or changed(kinda wierd) now I see you're new one, great job

At first I didn't like it but it's already growing on me, I think I'd just get rid of the nb all together though. EDIT: This one looks badass, I'm still not sure about the nb but you're the creative one not me

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Jan 23, 2005 -> 10:30 AM) Personally, I say f*** the rivalry and I would much rather see the Sox kicking the Twins ass everytime...but thats just me though. Ditto.

This win impressed the hell out of me, I really thought they were going to lose this game, I'm very impressed

QUOTE(MurcieOne @ Jan 22, 2005 -> 03:20 PM) I dont really see a spot for him on the bulls uniform.... but i absolutely love the guy... he just made one realllllly bad mistake. Never gonna forget the triple-double he put up against jason kidd. I hope he goes anywhere but NY or LA As a duke fan Jay is one of my favorites if not my favorite player ever, I loved watching the guy in college, just one hell of a talent. I really hope he lands on his feet somewhere, like you said he made one real bad mistake.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jan 22, 2005 -> 02:49 PM) Is this ever gonna stop. Easily got 15 inches up here in Lake County. Sun was out for a few minutes but snow is back. Low visibility! Yup, it stopped for a bit and now is coming down hard again.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jan 22, 2005 -> 01:12 PM) Yes, I think that's a fair assumption. And if you were White Sox management, you'd probably want a safety net for 2B in case Iguchi is a bust, yes? I know I would. And not a rookie ... a proven guy. To me, that means either a trade for a veteran utility guy, ala Graffanino or someone like him, or bring in a safety net at SS and use Uribe as a guy who could pick up the slack at 2B if necessary. There are really no FA's left at 2B. I agree 100 percent.
