New Over/Under 140 RBI's

Badger, I agree for the most part. What I would like to see is 1. expand the rosters and have 5-10 spots for guys who can only be used for extra innings. 2. The original all stars can be used in extras until the are subbed out. 3. If you run out of players you forfeit. Under these circumstances teams should be well equipped to last 20+ innings.

looks like he will get 110 before august

1972 Dolphins

at least he has the all star break to rest up.

Konerko is 2/2 so far with 1 RBI. I have a good feeling this thread will die soon.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 9, 2008 -> 02:12 AM) How could a Ray beat out Dye?? Do the Rays have fans?? It's rigged if Longoria is leading. The way I look at it, is most fans that have a guy on the NL ballot is voting for Longoria as their AL guy. Most baseball fans love the Rays story.

Just added 100+ text message votes for JD (from Yankee stadium)

Wow. I am pretty surprised NY does not have Giambi walking away with this. There is a chance.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 7, 2008 -> 01:39 PM) Looks like a bunch of Red Sox fans voted in that poll... This looks like the work of 1 guy. Not that it really matters

QUOTE (ScottPodRulez22 @ Jul 7, 2008 -> 02:55 PM) 8) Which team most deserved to have seven All-Stars? 92.2% Red Sox 5.5% Neither did 1.6% Cubs 0.7% Both did lol looks like someone voted with some automated software. The results were WAY different as of last night.

QUOTE (tommy @ Jul 7, 2008 -> 03:44 PM) I saw all the participants on ESPN bottom line, late last night, no Sox players participating. EDIT: I guess 5 out of 8 are in so far. Hamilton, Uggla, Utley, Berkman, Sizemore. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/allstar08/ne...tory?id=3476173 that's an impressive showing so far

QUOTE (whitesoxin' @ Jul 7, 2008 -> 02:53 AM) He stole the MVP from Frank in 2000 and now we can't let him steal Jermaine's trip to the All-Star Game. Yankees fans will be out in full force to get their man to the ASG at their home park so we're going to need all the help we can get. I don't know any of the other boards that is why I'm reaching out to you guys because I'm sure some of you might have posted over at some of these other teams boards once in awhile. Not to mention in 2003, he was voted in over Frank . Would have been nice to see the best player in Franchise history get to play in front of the home town fans. Nope, the rest of the nation does not care about the White Sox. I figured that out at a very young age. This would be a nice way of revenge. Too bad it is not Jeter instead of Giambi on the final man ballot.

anyone who would not want back a 100% healthy Paulie should just stop being a White Sox fan.

f***ing bulls*** that the Seattle is losing their team.

This does not make me happy at all. I admit, I was not much of a DJ fan the first few years, but he has grown on me of late. Fwiw, I think the chemistry between Hawk and DJ is among the best in baseball (I have heard just about every broadcasting duo ) and it would be a shame to break them up. Shame on Hawk for not speaking up on DJ's behalf.

QUOTE (DBAH0 @ Jul 1, 2008 -> 10:57 PM) Davis for $10M a season is crazy. Im assuming you mean crazy as in bargain. Maybe this signing helps the market in favor of the owners this offseason.

last 2 putouts of the World Series and a serviceable backup 2b-SS-3b . That's who.

I do not know how any sox fan who has watched all or the majority of the games can give Uribe a F. I think you guys are guilty of looking at statistics and nothing else. 1. His defense at 2b has been superb 2. I recall at least 2 games where we would have lost without him The game tying HR April 28th vs Baltimore (which was suspended but would have been a L without his late inning HR) June 13th vs Colorado he had a BIG 2 run Single late in a game we won 5-4. 3. Are these grades not based on expectations? He hit .234 in 07 and .235 in 06 and is hitting .215 in 08. He is not FAR from what I expected from him. 4. Lastly, a previous poster mentioned Swish is on the way up (and I agree) However, so is Uribe. He is hitting .275 since MAY 1st most of it in his backup role. Uribe gets a C- based on expectations Anyone who mentions to just DFA Uribe now is a fan too LAZY to look at all the stats/splits ect.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 1, 2008 -> 10:23 AM) Pleaaaaaaaase sign Brand. Whatever it takes. I know they're gonna have to dump some salary though. But Brand would have a Pau Gasol effect on this team (and Brand > Gasol). I realize I'm probably just daydreaming but still. I would be all for it if they trade some bodies ( gooden,noc) . However, if this screws up our cap space for 2010 I would rather pass.
