Hasn't meadows always been solid out of the pen, hasn't he just had problems as a starter? I'd also like to add Meadows and Kendall.

Anyone who throws a ball back is a jackass. Anyone who wants to throw a ball back I hope that they never come to the cell and go only to the northside to be with all the other idiots.

You sure about that brando? That's just what Bruce said but I probably trust any one here more then Levine so your probably right.

Florida is interesting. I've heard they might try and trade Pavano or Penny to acquire a bat. I'd obviously be interested in both guys but I'm not sure if that is realistic or not.

Yup, only 25 percent of the allstar team is yankees. What the hell is joe doing, the allstar team needs to be atleast half yankees.

Bruce Levine and Chris Bowden are on espn 1000 today for moronotti and Bruce said that Kenny has called arizona but at the time he wasn't available. Bruce also said now that Randy has said he'd waive his no trade clause that he's sure Kenny will call arizona again. The problem obviously is the money rj has 8 mill owed for the rest of this year and 17 due for next year. Because of the money the yanks and bosox are obvious suitors. Now I know the yanks have basically nothing in their farm. I'm not sure about the red sox but I don't think they have a lot either, anybody know what Boston has down on the farm?

I also agree with what your saying. But last year it's not like kenny gave up any studs. In the garcia trade Olivo is the guy that will probably hurt us in the future more then any one else. Sure reed has the potential to be a very good player but their is so much outfield depth in the minors plus rowand proving to be a very solid player I don't think we're going to regret giving up reed.

If Frank goes down, carl everett is probably the perfect guy to fill the void. He'd be able to dh, he's got a very good left handed bat and he's a very clutch hitter. Plus I think he's only owed 2 million dollars for the rest of the year.

I disagree with that. The sox have a lot of talent and depth in the lower minor leagues. Because of the very good drafts the sox keep having their is going to be plenty of talent to trade or to play for the white sox.

DBAHO, can you post the article for some reason I can't get into that link.

Second straight year with the sox having one guy in the futures game. It kind of sucks to only have one guy in there but oh well, I'll take Freddy.

Timo is about as clutch as they come on the sox. He's come up with some gigantic hits this year.

HOLY f***IN s*** BALLS, TIMO YYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

You CAN trade a guy on the dl so that doesn't matter. It seems really odd that they reinstated him so quickly because all the talk was about him coming back after the allstar break.

His numbers are worse then last year but I like what he's doing this year but then last year. The way carlos is hitting I'd much rather have him up in a clutch situation this year then last year.

This sucks that we have to have this conversation again but unfortunately it looks like it still isn't solved. I'm all for giving Rauch another chance also. I know brando is going to say randy johnson, I still think that's unrealistic but another trade is probably the best way to go. How about Barry Zito, it seems more and more likely that oakland will try trading barry for another bat. I know he's struggling right now but I'm sure he'll get it turned around.

Is anyone else going to mention that for 4 out of these 6 games that the sox offense has been dead their two best hitters have not been playing. I know the offense shouldn't be this bad no matter what but the point remains with out Frank and Magglio in the lineup it's going to be hard to score some runs. I would not mind Steve Finley either but another starter and bullpen help are still bigger needs then another bat. The sox are playing like s*** right now but the sky is not falling, this team we'll be fine and back in first place very soon.

Same garbage threads popping up two weeks ago. Any time there is a bad stretch is there going to be a thread that pops up and says we're doomed, the sox suck, blah, blah blah. This is a very good team that happens to be struggling right now. Give them 2 or 3 more weeks they'll be back in first place.

O god please keep this thread away from Brando.

7-5

Well if hawk won't knock that jackass out maybe mac will.

:dips***

It was dramastically.

Ditto. I'd rather sign freddy then maggs. Keep the stud pitcher instead of the stud right fielder. Now the sox have 2 very good young starters as the 1-2 punch, that's something that's very nice to have. I liked the trade at the beginning but it was hard for me to see miguel and jeremy go but mostly miguel. Now that Freddy is resigned for 3 more years it really makes this deal good for not only the present but the future, way to go kw.

I second that.
