QUOTE(SoIL @ Jul 12, 2006 -> 04:21 PM) Isn't Posednik a free agent after this year? Or is there an option on his contract. He has a year or two of arbitration left.

Moved to the diamond club.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jul 12, 2006 -> 09:46 AM) I'm inclined to agree with you. I hope I'm wrong because he is one of my favorite pitchers in baseball to watch. Unfortunately, I really do believe he's done.

QUOTE(WCSox @ Jul 12, 2006 -> 09:31 AM) If the Phillies threw in a reliever, I could see this happening. But something tells me that the Sox don't want Gordon and there's really nobody else in that 'pen that's impressive enough to trade for. I could easily see KW moving Vazquez this winter. The Sox aren't going to be able to allocate $50 million of their payroll to their starters over the long term. But any move that would send B-Mac into the rotation this season is unlikely. It would likely take time for him to re-adjust to the rotation and they'd need to receive a very solid reliever (preferably one that can pitch long relief) in return. Actually, adding Flash to the deal adds a little sense to it. You'd have someone to take Brandon's spot in the bullpen and we'd have that right handed set up man a lot of people want. Move Brandon into the rotation and then the money would be pretty even as well. That being said, I still see no point in adding Aaron Rowand as I think Brian is going to be the better player starting the 2nd half of this season.

Yuck.

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 08:12 PM) I actually like Thom Brennaman and Josh Lewin ^^^

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 10:38 PM) Honestly, I wasn't really as in to this year's as I have in th year's before. The whole Red Sox/Yankees starting lineup was quite the turnoff, as were the 2 starting pitchers. And on top of that, the game was boring. I enjoyed it. It was a well played game with some late inning drama. Oh well, jmo.

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 10:17 PM) I smell a pop up to shallow left. Is there really any doubt? Shallow right it is.

w00t, Carlos Lee.

Ozzie needs to bring in Mark Redman for the lefties.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 10:05 PM) What would that show about Podsednik in isolation? If the pitching staff is far and away the best staff in MLB, f***ing Timo Perez could trot out to LF and have a number of winning seasons. Well we've trotted Timo Perez out there before in place of Pods so lets see if that theory is true. Why are we isolating Pods from the rest of the team? Baseball is a team sport and you can't just take stats to prove how important some one might be to a team. Like I said, I just want to know our record with Pods starting and with out him starting the last two years. That is all.

Close this one out MO.

Wow, wow wow wow. Horrible.

That a boy Paul. AJ would hit a homer here if he was up.

PAUL EEEEE

Boo.

One of you stat guys want to pull up our record with Pods starting and with out Pods the last two years. Just out of curiousity.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 09:52 PM) When is JD due up? Can we have another Papelbon moment? He'll be due up first.

Boo. JD is just going to have to tie this up next inning.

JI

Jim Thome will most likely ph in the 8th and he shall take Flash deep.

Damn you Troy Glaus.

YERMAINGUY coming in. Konerko in as well.
