QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Nov 1, 2006 -> 10:59 AM) The Yankees are not ruling out trading ARod, but want him to ask to be traded. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/6124268 In other words, they want to trade him but need him to waive his no trade.

Because a deal is in place this early it almost makes me believe it's the Sox. I just can't see Kenny pulling a deal on Sheff though.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 11:01 PM) I love being right. I told alot of people that Tyrus Thomas is a stud and will continue to be a stud for many, many years broken nose or not. lol, he's a stud cause he broke his nose?

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 09:51 PM) I was hoping somebody didn't say that before I went into this thread. It's the first thing that comes to my mind when I hear his name.

Anyone hear the Kerr comment during the game? Something along the lines of "I think chicago fans are getting spoiled, they got the Bears, this Bulls team, the White Sox won the world series last year, and the cubs...oh nevermind"

Steve Kerr rocks too.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 08:46 PM) ah, so ignore all numbers and go by your "feelings" I understand. Yup, all the numbers=era for relievers. Neal had better peripherals last season and is one year removed from an outstanding season. He's younger than Riske and has better stuff than David does. Also, Neal's 2004 season was as a starting pitcher, he's not a starter. Neal will be the better pitcher in 07, no doubt in my mind.

So um ya

The Yankees are reportedly interested in Jeff Suppan. I hope that the Yanks think he's the solution to their pitching problems.

Who can set the court on fire?

The Price is Wrong, b****

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 04:50 PM) DUI DUI DUI DUI lol. How are we going to beat Quincy on Thursday without Tatum? PS, I'll be sure to throw things at Gordon next season if you guys don't buy out that game.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 04:48 PM) It's all because Hep and Hardy weren't there. Blah blah blah.

So if IU wins this weekend that means SIU would have defeated a division 1a bowl team when we might not even make the division 1aa playoffs. Good times.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 04:36 PM) ummm ok, based on what? Keep in mind that they also dont compete for the same position mostly Cotts 2004 5.65 2005 1.94 2006 5.17 Riske 2002 5.26 2003 2.29 2004 3.72 2005 3.10 2006 3.89 I would say the safer bet is with Riske, and he is definatley a better option than "hoping" someone from AAA will come up and be a good pitcher. Riske also happens to be pretty damn effective when given 70+ innings of work. Cause Neal has more upside and I still think he's going to be a real good long term reliever. Yes he had a horrible year but that does happen with relievers now and then. Like I said, I'll take my chances with Neal.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 04:25 PM) Yes... so someone can feel proud about their jersey... Hey, that jersey came in handy in Cinci.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 04:14 PM) Riske is a better bet IMO than those 2 scenarios. I disagree, I'll take my chances with Neal.

Very nice.

Very Awesome.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Oct 30, 2006 -> 07:21 PM) I dont think Jesus/God is going to be the reason a major league baseball player is able to pitch another season or not. And im not being an ass, Im a religous person. LOL, this post made me laugh.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Oct 30, 2006 -> 05:57 PM) I've got no problem with Buerhle rooting for the Cardinals, but at some point in time he must show respect and maybe even some love for the team that drafted him in the 38th round,(the Cardinals passed quite a lot of times) and will have paid him after 2007 $28 million. Any picture you take is liable to be put on the internet. Wearing a Cardinal hat when you have been an All Star pitcher for the White Sox and the supposed ace of the defending world champions' staff, and getting photographed in it, maybe isn't wrong, although I think it probably is, but it certainly is stupid. And this after saying twice now that he wants to pitch for the Cards. Like I said, this story is getting old but it's not going away with him.

Look at the Widge.

QUOTE(Soxfest @ Oct 30, 2006 -> 10:52 AM) No to Roberts this would be a step backwards.No thanks. How so?

Riske was basically a completely average reliever and at the moment that's really his upside. We want to upgrade and at worst have some guys with some upside in the pen, Riske just isn't good enough to keep around.

QUOTE(Brian @ Oct 29, 2006 -> 10:42 PM) You also think Stevenson has a shot at the 8A state title, so there ya go. Well they have a better shot than Warren. Point, Rowand.
