QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Oct 6, 2006 -> 12:22 PM) In an effort to protect Brian he started using Rob in CF more, sacrificing defense to try and provide more pop to a sluggish lineup. Sluggish lineup? Our hitters were absolutely killing the ball when Ozzie started to platoon the two.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 6, 2006 -> 09:32 AM) Prospects develop, thats why we have to use patience. What a concept.

QUOTE(shipps @ Oct 6, 2006 -> 04:01 AM) We have waited for MB to come down to earth for a long time.My gut tells me the league has finally caught up to him.Reyes is gonna be a hell of a pitcher for a long time. I'm sorry but I don't buy that the league caught up to him after 5 years, that doesn't make much sense. Buehrle is one guy that I have faith in to bounce back, much more than Freddy, much more than Jose, and I expect Mark once again to be better than Garland next season. Like I said, I am a big fan of Reyes and I think he's going to be a very nice pitcher but Buehrle is worth more than that.

QUOTE(shipps @ Oct 6, 2006 -> 03:52 AM) Trade Buehrle to the cards for Reyes.maybe even think about Mulder. Mulder is a fa. I'm a big fan of Anthony Reyes but Buehrle is worth a hell of a lot more than that.

QUOTE(shipps @ Oct 6, 2006 -> 03:40 AM) Because the Marlins like BA ,it makes me like him once again.they have an unbelievable eye for young talent.Ask the Cubs.You must keep him. I've become one of the bigger Brian Anderson fans around, however the Marlins are absolutely loaded with young arms, so you at least have to listen to what they have to offer.

Instead of watching the playoffs, I'm just watching my Sox dvd's from last season. I'm not sure if it makes me feel better or worse right now.....

QUOTE(greg775 @ Oct 6, 2006 -> 02:33 AM) I am saying I completely understand why Oz soured on BA and got him only 350 at bats. BA SUCKED at the plate early; just sucked. So instead we throw a guy out there in center who cost us at least a good 3 games in the field. Ozzie hurt the team by continuing to throw Rob out there, it's that simple.

QUOTE(chimpy2121 @ Oct 5, 2006 -> 11:23 PM) Thank God for beer pong. ^^^^

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Oct 5, 2006 -> 03:34 PM) ozzie did everything he could to protect BA during the first half and now Ozzie's his nemesis, if you believe what you read around here. Ugh, I told myself I was done debating all the BA garbage but Ozzie did nothing to protect BA in the first half. If by protecting him you mean throwing him out there against a lot of left handers when he hits better against righties, then sure, he protected him.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ Oct 5, 2006 -> 03:46 PM) I think Buehrle will be re-signed to a deal slightly higher than Garland's. He would have commanded much more before this season, but after a down year, he has lost some value. Garcia seems to be the obvious choice, especially to a NL team in need of starting pitching. I could see him going to NYM, SD, LA, or even HOU. There are more options than Crawford for leadoff. This will be a very interesting off season to say the least. Always is with Mr. Williams controlling the team.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Oct 3, 2006 -> 02:51 PM) If Frank Thomas keeps this up all postseason, he goes into the Hall as a member of the A's. So sad he's still not a White Sox. I love Thome, but Frank is in the postseason; Jimmy is not. KW's biggest blunder ever. HA HA HA. Now that's humor.

Any team who needs a cf would be interested in Anderson, that simple really. Florida has a lot of young talent so you at least have to listen to what they have to offer. No thanks on Dontrelle btw.

Hopefully it's Freddy. Mark will bounce back next year, Freddy won't.

QUOTE(Steff @ Oct 5, 2006 -> 04:37 AM) Work out. Rec center is closed. No where to do that at.

There is absolutely nothing to do at 4:30 in the morning....

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Oct 3, 2006 -> 10:22 PM) Happy Birthday Keith!!!! lol, you rock. Anyways, I know it's going to be hard to have a happy birthday without me around, but try your best.

QUOTE(cuddlyboy26 @ Oct 2, 2006 -> 05:49 PM) Would Crede want to be a backup to Fields though? Uh, Joe has become one of the better 3b's in the league, he's not backing up anyone.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Oct 2, 2006 -> 05:39 PM) I don't know about that. He could very well be better than Brandon. I like Brandon but he's still got a long ways to go, mainly because the White Sox completely wasted the 2006 season on him. I disagree, I'd take Brandon over Ervin but that's jmo. I do think pretty highly of Santana though.

I'd LOVE to have Ervin Santana on the Sox. He's still young and he's going to get better. He's not going to be as good as McCarthy but he's going to be a very solid starter, hell he's already pretty damn good. Like I said about Michael Young, Santana will be good no matter where he plays

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 2, 2006 -> 12:20 PM) I recall KW sounding pretty confident about telling Jon or Contreras adios during last winter too. I don't have much reason to hold him entirely to his word, especially the day after our season ended. It's one of his ways of negotiating.

QUOTE(fathom @ Oct 1, 2006 -> 11:54 PM) I'd rather not have to watch Ozuna play 60 games in the outfield again this season. Also, I don't think Dellucci is Ozzie's type of player. If you read everything that Ozzie is saying in the press, it's quite obvious he's referring to a specific player. Hopefully Kenny doesn't listen to Ozzie at all this offseason. I hope Kenny has his own idea, and doesn't take much imput from Oz. Edited for the fact I don't want to start another argument I've had too many times already.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Oct 1, 2006 -> 10:31 PM) I thought the playoffs were not going to happen this year I'm not watching, doesn't mean I can't make a prediction.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 1, 2006 -> 09:04 PM) Thank you for jinxing them. I'm not trying to jinx anyone. I couldn't care less who wins the world series. It's going to be the Tigers though.

The Tigers will win the world series.

Greg Walker is the least of our problems. We can fire him and then when the next hitting coach comes in and our hitters continue to do the same thing, we can fire him as well.
