QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 04:12 PM) Gotcha, I Didn't know if you guys were thinking he was a good prospect or something and since I follow the Angels quite a bit I was going to point out that he isn't. He definately has his moments though. Whats been his main issue? His stuff looks big league caliber.

D-Wise, doing his best to help soxtalk.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 04:07 PM) Guys, just to point this out, Mosely has been in and out for awhile. I'm not saying he doesn't have some talent but I certainly wouldn't be comparing his potential to a guy like Dan Haren. He's a serviceable back of the rotation starter/swingmen in your pen, imo. True, but in THAT inning, his stuff looked that good. Biting sinker moving away from lefties and a dissapearing curve.

GO to your starting 2B, Chris Getz

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 04:03 PM) Floyd has some nice movement on his fastball and what appears to be good pop. His big strikeout yacker is looking good but he hasn't been able to throw the curve for strikes much which is hurting him. Either way you can tell how much more confident he is on the mound. He looks in control, despite giving up a few runs. He's also pitching noticeably quicker. Still a slow delivery, but less time in between pitches. His motion looks less robotic than a year ago.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 01:59 PM) There was a rather hefty bet involved with SBIMI's lawyer status IIRC Yes, yes there was.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 03:59 PM) mosley's got some good stuff out there He's pretty nasty. I think he reminds me of Haren, but I could be wrong. Its definatley someone, I just cant put my finger on it.

These guys cant pick up this guys sinker at all.

Wow that was nasty on Kroeger

Fields is going to hit for a decent avg this year, Im sure of it.

AHAHAH SBMI. We had an epic war about his lawyer status on here. Hilarious RNW was so dumb and easy to flame.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 10:22 AM) So we are saying Jenks Thornton Dotel Linebrink are 100% in With Clayton Richard in as long as he isn't a starter. For my money, I want to see both Marquez and Poreda in Charlotte starting if Richard is in the pen. After that I would go with DJ Carrasco and Lance Broadway as the garbage man. If the Sox think Poreda's future is in the pen, then go ahead and bring him north. If not, send him to Charlotte and let him work on his third pitch. Yup Jenks Line Thornton Dotel Richard Carrasco Marquez/Wass

QUOTE (Hawkfan @ Mar 18, 2009 -> 12:57 PM) Viciedo must had some huge problems to send him down after 25 at bats, while at the same time hitting homeruns over 400 feet to opposite field. I'm interested in seeing how he does down at the lower levels, hopefully this will piss him off enough to get his s*** together, even though I know he is still young. If by problem you mean Josh Fields blocking him, then yes.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 06:54 PM) Make it a 3/5 day for Anderson, now up to .283. 3/5 on the day for Betemit also. Alexei 0/5. AJ 2/4, guess he decided he needed to keep pushing that .467 BA higher. Please turn it around BA, we NEED you to win this job.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Mar 16, 2009 -> 09:52 PM) There are 6 guys I'd pay top dollar to watch play: Pujols, Hanley Ramirez, Manny Ramirez, Josh Hamilton, Jose Reyes, and Ichiro. I really hope he didn't juice. I can sit there all day and watch him hit. It's ridiculous. He has one of the best swings I've ever seen. His bat stays in the zone so long its ridiculous.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 01:32 PM) i've heard stories that Rowand usuallly wears a Sox's or a Bears T-shirt under his uniform and that Gload watches Sox games in his hotel room on road trips. Bit of a conflict of interest if true. Yeah, he wears an old Bears shirt under his uni. And AJP used to watch twins games when he was with SF.

My dog holding a bat in her mouth probably has a better chance of making contact than either.

That lineup makes me want to puke. Owens and AJP back to back is just awful.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 02:50 PM) Basically exactly, except maybe a few more stolen bases. Oh, and the manager would play him. That's a pretty big differenc.e Touche. All in all, KW's judgement wasnt all that off. He thought BA would give us similar production and he was mostly correct. If BA played everyday they may put up similar defensive metrics as well and offensive stats save the SB's.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 11:48 AM) That is a beautiful building. Interactive Brokers HQ is in there, along with a few other companies. One of Burnham's

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 11:09 AM) Eh, with his defense, Chris Young would be a solid #7/#8 hitter in our lineup and I'd have no complaints. That's of course assuming he'd get playing time. So, just like BA really.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Mar 17, 2009 -> 09:57 AM) Ha, this is the first Cubs fan response I got I made NO mention of wanting Zambrano, i just wrote "This article should warm the heart of all Cubs fans......The truth really does hurt" LOL And would we soil our shorts? Maybe, when he puts up a mid 4 ERA in the AL and is barely a #3 starter.

Still with the Chris Young crap? I swear some folks on here are of the impression he's actually been a good player.
