I hope someone punches him in the face.

One step closer to a fire sale. Works for me.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jun 22, 2007 -> 08:16 PM) Victor Zambrano for Scott Kazmir. A top prospect for an average starter who made like 3 starts before getting hurt and released. Minaya could get desperate if Atlanta stays in the hunt for Mark. He wasn't the gm at that time.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 22, 2007 -> 07:30 PM) Is it just me or did he take a pretty inordinate route to that ball? I have no idea why he rounded off his route but the straight line to the ball seems a bit more efficient to me. Ya, it wasn't the greatest route, he ran straight left and then came charging in.

Tyler Smith has been ruled eligible to play in the 07-08 season. Tennessee was legit before but now they're looking fantastic.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jun 22, 2007 -> 07:06 PM) I read in the paper today that the laws permitting UFC in Illinois flew through the state Congress, and Helmet Hair is expected to sign off on them, so UFC could put on a card in Chicago by December or January. I'd be there.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 22, 2007 -> 12:55 PM) Any chance Fields makes contact vs Zambrano this series? He might be the only one.

I'll throw the preseason bracketology in here: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/bracketology College basketball can't get here soon enough.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 22, 2007 -> 12:02 PM) This is like the 3rd article I've read where they made Contreras out to be a big-time starting pitcher who could command serious talent on the trade market. This does surprise me but I'm desperately hoping it is true, if they could get some good talent back in return for Contreras and his contract it could be HUGE for this franchise. Might just be the fact that besides Mark it seems like there is going to be nothing on the market in the way of starting pitchers. I'll believe it when I see it but it'd definitely be fantastic if we can rid ourselves of that contract and actually get some talent back in return. I don't want Kenny to rush into anything but I'm hoping for something to go down soon, Gavin belongs in Chicago right now.

Bye.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 22, 2007 -> 11:27 AM) I still say they would part with Salta. Last year in the minors he had a horrid season...this year he's been looking damn good and his value is up a lot....Braves could move him, knowing McCann is better. That's pretty much what I was thinking as well.

Lets go Buehrle and Fields

This is going to be some of the worst baseball ever.

Gavin.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 20, 2007 -> 08:30 AM) I'm talking about mad at the Sox and/or Kenny Williams Eh, I'm always mad at them.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 20, 2007 -> 07:34 AM) Now will people be OK if Mark leaves for more money and years? I'm going to be sad no matter what if Mark leaves. Now, if you're talking about just being mad at Mark for taking more money, I'd only be angry if he left for like 5 and 85 instead of 5 and 80 or something like that. I don't ever blame players for leaving for a considerable amount of more money, unless of course they b**** out the organization or something like that.

Never too early to talk College Basketball. Katz has had 3 preseason polls and SIU has been ranked in one and unranked in the other 2.

I definitely cheated and was quite surprised.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 10:33 PM) Can we please just disband the idea of bunting? It is killing our team. It's killed our team for the last 2 years now. I'm actually a fan of the bunt but it's beyond worthless with this group.

QUOTE(Mr. Showtime @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 10:28 PM) That was a good banner wasn't it? The best.

QUOTE(JDsDirtySox @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 10:26 PM) Are you ready for "The Kids Can Play! Part 2?" I am I'm ready.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 10:16 PM) So this throws a bit of a wrench into the resurgence now doesn't it? 66-29 here on out and this team will be playing in October! Fields hit a homer.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 10:12 PM) I was at "The Fuse" game, and I thought so as well. Good times.

Fields hit a homer.
