QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 01:27 PM) I think so. He PM'ed me and told me KW will soon acquire Halladay, Oswalt, and Vlad in a 4 team deal: Sox Get: Vladimir Guerrero, Roy Oswalt, Roy Halladay Angels Get: A Rubber-band Astros Get: Stapler w/0 Staples Blue Jays Get: Envelop Opener that should not be in green

QUOTE(Princess Dye @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 12:28 PM) score 670 reports that it is happening. so i thought i would let you all know. i suppose we've seen that sort of thing before, when it falls thru. but i'm into taking huge posting risks, Dude. Thanks for informing us! I can't belive anyone has not posted any rumors on shingo yet! Congrats on being the 1st to post this breaking news!

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 11:08 AM) Thats shows how much Bruce knows about the sox, Adkins wont be brought up, there are many better options. I disagree with that. I expect adkins to be one of the long relivers soon.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 11:05 AM) Yeah why aren't we talking about Frank's .226 average, or that he can't hit a fastball anymore? [runs and hides to admire the blaze] I will find you at the next tail gate!!

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 11:02 AM) I'm not critcizing your speculation. Just friendly debate. Thats what us sox fans do best I get over defensive with Frank at times. Sorry about that.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 10:53 AM) But saying that they WERE indirect shots at Frank would be pure speculation. So far this year, I've heard Pauly do nothing but compliment Frank...directly, that is. your right. it is just speculation. Regardless , I will stick to my speculation. That's why this is a message board.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 10:45 AM) The Clayton comment and this one are totally different. Clayton was released by the Sox and considered a cancer by members of the team and management. Ordonez was the best player on the team during Konerko's time here. His teammates respected him and management offered him the largest contract in team history. Konerko is far from the only one with the team who feels the way he does. That does not mean that they were not both indirect shots at Frank.

I don't know. I just don't trust paulie since 2002. I feel the royce comment and now this may be indirect shots at Frank. Sometimes its just best not to say anything at all.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 08:12 AM) I thought Royce was the best player he's ever played with...? I wish Paul would get a toothache and his mouth would swell shut. I could not have said it better myself.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 18, 2005 -> 06:03 AM) Vladimir Guerrero:

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Jul 17, 2005 -> 06:18 PM) I instant messaged him, invited him back...He is on-line now... He hasn't responded yet. I want to chat with him too LOL when Im done talking I'll leave by saying "sweep ya later!"

IM STILL PUMPED !!!! :sweep: :sweep: :sweep: I will be there 2mrrw night watching the 2005 Chicago White Sox-a team that will sure to be remembered for generations to come.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 19, 2005 -> 06:14 PM) Lemme just jump in here late and say... Kiss him good-bye! we should invite him back. it would be so much fun lol

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 19, 2005 -> 03:51 PM) Santana, Radke >>>>> Buehrle/Garcia Twins have the better rotation until Garland/Contreras prove that they can pitch at a better level and that El Duque can actually stay healthy. I think the Sox have the better lineup and as good of a bullpen. If Shingo pitches like he did last year, then the Sox pen will be better. . (even though I would have said the same at the time)

What do you expect the bullpen to look like the final day of the season? Pollite Cotts Marte Hermanson Shingo Vizcaino Jenks Adkins Baj Trade? Contreras, Duke? My prediction Cotts LR Adkins LR Hermanson MR Marte MR Politte SU Eddie Guardado CL

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jul 17, 2005 -> 09:56 AM) We are 60-29. End of discussion. That needed to be said. Thank You

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jul 17, 2005 -> 09:53 AM) Aaron's SO/BB ratio is 4.19 while Anderson's is 2.62. So, even though he strikes out more, he has been better at the plate than Rowand. Aaron's slugging this year is below .400. Anderson is a better fielder, better arm, better athlete and overall better with the bat. Don't get me wrong, I like A-Row, but he has lost something at the plate and is more of a guy who gets a lot from not the greatest tools. Are you comparing rowands MLB #'s to Andersons AAA #'s? :rolly

maggs, I think you are just putting too much stock in anderson. I never would have thought about moving Rowand. I don't see how he hurts this team. Anderson IMO, is still a few years away from reaching Rowand's current level of play. If he does get there, Rowand will be even more improved and better then what he is now.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jul 17, 2005 -> 09:47 AM) Anderson is not ready. Look at his strikeout numbers. Almost one K in every three at-bats. Until he improves that ratio, he'll be toast against big league pitching. can we say valentin #'s?

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jul 17, 2005 -> 09:39 AM) Dye at first, I don't think will happen. You guys seem quite confident after one game he played there. I think moving Rowand is more crazy than Dye playing 1st. I never seen an outfielder converted to a 1st baseman If we can't move dye, then he should go. Not rowand. An above average young cf is not easy to come by.

why would we move Dye before rowand? Rowand imo is one of the main faces of the sox. I can see an outfield of pods, rowand, anderson. Dye might even move to 1st base next year. Plus, anderson still needs to prove himself before we even consider moving one of our outfieldrs.

awesome work yet again!

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 17, 2005 -> 05:48 AM) I thought so too until I found out that he's 29 years old now it's just freaky to me. ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Agreed
