Rowand44

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Jan 13, 2005 -> 03:58 PM) He was actually a good player, it's just his attitude and lazyness really made him look bad. That's why he sucks. He's got all the talent in the world and he's a decent offensive player however he's an awful and lazy defender, and a terrible baserunner, he's just an idiot. I don't think you can win with guys with D'angelo on your team, he's just a dumb ball player.

My parents saw it and told me it was awesome.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jan 13, 2005 -> 03:30 PM) Bummer. I wanted Cora because he could spell both Uribe & Harris at a reasonable price. Now the only guy worth considering on that list is Larkin. He still has some baseball left in the tank. If nothing else it take CLE out of the running for Iguchi. Our biggest competition might be coming from teams like HOU. Teams willing to spend more than others because of the hole they find themselves in. We have no competition for Iguchi, he'll either sign with the sox or stay in japan.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jan 13, 2005 -> 03:18 PM) You are grossly underestmating the value of Davis. He simply has not had enough regular ab's in the ML's to consider a bust yet. I liken his value to that of Jiminez' when the Sox got him. As a prospect he was highly rated. But in limited capacity he didn't get it done. Now with regular ab's at CIN he's an everyday player. Davis is worth at least what we gave up to get Jiminez at the time. Jimenez sucks.

I kind of got a dilemma and wondering if I there is anything I can do. Anyways my friend and I were originally going to go saturday and sunday so we got the whole ticket package but we only have our room for saturday night, anyways we now want to go Friday too but the problem is they won't let us get our tickets until we check in but that's not until saturday. We're trying to argue with them but I'm not sure if that's going to work, anyone got any ideas??

Good story. They showed some of it on CSN last night, Rowand smashed a ball left handed maybe he should be a switch hitter

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jan 12, 2005 -> 12:12 PM) I'm more interested in the Q&A sessions and stuff like that than the autographs to tell you the truth. Ditto, the seminars are the most fun, imo. There are a couple auto's I want to get but for the most part all seminars.

QUOTE(BamaDoc @ Jan 11, 2005 -> 08:40 PM) Hermanson 2005 2.0 million, 2006 3.0 million, 2007 3.5 million or .5 buyout so two years at 5.5 guaranteed Schowenweis 2005 2.5 million, 2006 2.75 million. total 5.25 This may be interesting to compare as the year moves forward. I'm a little surprised Schowenweis got that much guaranteed due to his elbow trouble. He is supposed to be a left handed specialist which he would have been unhappy doing here last year. Hermy by a landslide.

Ha, pretty funny how the twins could be ranked higher. I don't think the sox are going to get a lot of love in any of these type of things though because they've lost a lof of their "flash" if that makes any sense.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 11:05 PM) I think Carlos fell out of favor with KW. It was probably both of them, I don't think Ozzie cared for Carlos's approach at the plate but I could be wrong.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 11:02 PM) It's a well known fact that Lee's value was high enough to fetch a #1 or #2 pitcher for the CWS. This was written up by Gammons himself. Think about that in terms of what we got for him. As someone said above Lee's value was higher than that of Koney's. So if this was a salary dump why not Koney over Lee? Look at all our 2B options we are discussing now. Any one of those players would have been thrown in with a relief pitcher & a PTBNL for Lee. That was likely the starting price for Lee. First off consider your source for that one. Second, I think the main reason Kenny traded carlos over koney was that carlos fell out of favor with Ozzie.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 10:46 PM) What I was saying is that I'm OD-ing on stats. Ah, ok, I'm an idiot, don't mind me

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 10:36 PM) The word "overkill" seems to come to mind. Ya, sorry about that, just making my point but I guess I've done that enough already :banghead

QUOTE(BobDylan @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 10:05 PM) What is your and other people's fascination with Alex Cora? Willie Harris is just as capable, if not more. Look at the numbers, Alex Cora sucks. Stats aren't everything.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 10:18 PM) Excellent choice. Definitely, though this better not take out of his time to make me sigs Congrats Goldy

QUOTE(Goldmember @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 08:47 PM) googled some pics of dye for a sig and found this pic. thought it was kinda neat so decided to post it. got it from this site: http://www.buckparadise.com/new_deer_galleries/2003deer.htm **admins/mods move to where ever if ya don't feel it belongs in palehose** Anyone else think Dye looks a lot like Lennox Lewis in that picture??

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 08:42 PM) It's really not hard to look up. Ichiro vs ALC: vs. CLE .360 .383 .459 .842 vs. DET .345 .385 .482 .867 vs. KAN .313 .389 .465 .854 vs. MIN .306 .324 .352 .676 Ichiro vs West, CC : 733, 1160 Ichiro vs Mor, Joh : 619. 1166 Ichiro vs San, Rad : 500, 885 The difference with Ichiro is his BA is good despite a low OPS. vs West he hit 286, vs San he hit 250. Great fit. He was just using that as an example. I think he's trying to say that you're throwing out some ridiculous stats to prove whether or not a player is a solid player, sorry if I put words in your mouth qwert, that's just how I interpreted it.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 08:19 PM) is he a FA because if he isnt i dont think pirates let him go but if he is i dont see why not sign a guy like him. He's not a fa.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 07:09 PM) Rollins vs Milwood, Sabathia : 750, 1500 Rollins vs Moroth, Johnson: 286, 237 Rollins vs Santana, Radke: 500, 000 Grant it he only had a few ab's against all but Milwood but he certainly didn't make the most of them. There's a greatly probability they will dominate him than he'll succeed. No to Rollins. You look into stats way to much. Because Rollins hasn't done well against certain pitchers that he hasn't faced that much you don't want him on the team, just ridiculous imo.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 03:51 PM) The Colts are a lock then. ChiSox3443: i think gb blows 'em out I knew you were going to bring that up in this thread :headshake

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 05:05 PM) That is not a great deal for houston, not at all. I was about to say that, Houston is gutting themselves even more if they do this deal.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 02:25 PM) Oh man! You guys just won't let this die will you! \ You're the one who bumped the thread

QUOTE(chisox2334 @ Jan 10, 2005 -> 01:32 PM) People love harris cause fist time people heard his name thought he was next ray durham and which now kenny wants ray ray back I don't love Willie but he's not a bad player. He posted some decent numbers last year and if we have to I have no problem going into the year with willie as the 2b, although I'd prefer to get a middle infielder that could hit 2nd.
