QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 01:43 PM) He was so dominant in Game 3 of the 'DS. Even the inning after he got out of the bases loaded jam, he was awesome -- I think he struck Ortiz out on three pitches. If I get a new jersey, it's probably him -- I don't want to ruin the career of yet another young player because his name is on my back. Whatever. That Borch jersey has done a lot for you.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 02:51 PM) I don't pay enough attention anymore. I assume you made that quote up? Ha, that confused me as well.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 12:42 PM) I just hope that which every way Williams takes this, he has a direction. If one guy goes, get rid of the rest. I really have no problem if Dye-Buehrle-Thome-Count all get shipped off at the deadline and in the off-season. You could rebuild the farm with the guys you get back in those deals, or at least get some young talent in this organization. Completely agree. If we're going to rebuild, just start from scratch. Honestly, besides trying to re-sign Mark I'd like to see all the others moved if possible for the right packages.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 11:32 AM) Because Ozzie said so himself. How many times have we gone over this with you? Do you own the Sox World Series DVD? That team was a homerun hitting team but we certainly played a bit of small ball. We scored a crap load of first inning runs by Pods getting on base, stealing, Iguchi getting him over and then someone knocking him in.

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 11:03 AM) You and your crazy smilies.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 10:47 AM) Because he's an arrogant horses' ass? Oh, maybe I'm wrong. But his name is RAZOR SHINES. Cmon now.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 10:36 AM) How can you not be a fan of a guy named Razor Shines?

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 10:25 AM) For the record, I think Wrigley Field TODAY > US Cellular Field before the renovations. That's not saying much. I never really cared at the time cause I went to games so few times back then and was just happy to be there when I was there, but it was pretty damn ugly, pre renovations.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 10:29 AM) No, the Indians didn't suck. They lost. There's a difference. I don't know how they lost so many games last year. It's a mystery to a lot of people. "Suck" is what we're doing now, what the Nationals do, what the Royals do. Lose is what the Yankees are doing, and what the Indians did. Big difference. The Indians were bad last year. The difference is they had/have a lot of young talented players plugged in as position players, where the Sox have basically nothing and are basically going to have to start from scratch offensively. Kenny has re-made a whole team in an offseason before so it's certainly possible but we're going to have a lot of work to do.

QUOTE(kwolf68 @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 10:12 AM) If we trade for Adam Dunn I will go over to Kenny Williams house and take a poop in his mailbox. ^^^

I've been to Wrigley once and it was probably the most frusterating game of my life. It was the Sox-Cubs game from like 3-4 years back where it got called in the 7th I believe cause that dump can't drain any freaking water.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 09:01 AM) Story White Sox scouts in Cincinnati, though I suspect it is not to scout Adam Dunn as the story suggests. The Reds and White Sox are both sellers, so is a three-way deal in the works? Or should the mods re-open GriffeyTalk.com? Dunn to the Yankees, Dye to the Reds, Homer Bailey and Phillip Hughes to the White Sox. I am really good at this gm stuff.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 09:44 AM) Josh Fields isn't ready to be in the majors yet. It doesn't matter how many lumps he takes, until he fixes his swing, it will be the same results. I wont argue that but if he's up here, he needs to play. Sitting him on the bench is only going to slow down his progression. He wasn't brought up here to sit on the bench and by Ozzie's recent comments, that might be exactly what is going to happen soon.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 09:37 AM) Why in the hell do we want to trade Mark within the AL? Personally I'd like to do as much as possible to re-sign Mark, but if that's not going to happen then I'm interested in getting the best package no matter what team we trade him to. This season is over and I really don't care who Mark pitches for the rest of this year if it isn't the White Sox.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 14, 2007 -> 09:21 AM) I agree with you. I know everyone will point to guys like Brandon and Brian, but there are also plenty of examples of him throwing guys into key situations, and giving them plenty of chances. He's basically thrown guys right into the fire, and when they fail at first(most young players are going to fail right away) then they basically get thrown under the bus. And it seems like it's taken a whole week before he's got tired of Fields. Ozzie hasn't exactly proven that he can be patient with young players and if we're going to rebuild, he's going to have to learn.

Thome needs to stop being so nice and just beat the crap out of some of his teammates.

Fields and Terrero need to be playing everday, period. Terrero is intriguing as all hell to me but I need to see him play a whole lot more until I'd be comfortable with him starting next season.

Ozzie is a moron, he really is.

Definitely the hair.

That made me sad.

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Jun 12, 2007 -> 07:47 PM) I think I wanna stand under Rihanna's umbrella... Yuck.

Happy bday, sir.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 11, 2007 -> 11:12 PM) Our organization is, AT BEST, in an equal position now as it was when he took over. IMO it's worse off than it was then, and that was 6 years ago. If that isn't a damning statement about his job performance, I don't know what is. This has to be a joke, right?

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jun 11, 2007 -> 04:13 PM) You would. I have no clue who that is.

Congrats to Mark. You're awesome.
