QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 18, 2008 -> 04:39 PM) Wassermann comes in and K's both guys he faces. Sorry, I just can't get over that MacDougal is going to get a job over Wassermann. Huge mistake IMO. Wass has time to come back up, he has options and we can use them. No biggie. When McD fails, Wass comes up. The only thing that hurts Wass is that hes so situational and only good against a hitter from one side, whereas McD in theory can retire both.

QUOTE(ChiSox_Sonix @ Mar 18, 2008 -> 10:53 AM) Bourgeois wont make the team. He is a Pablo clone with a little more power. I believe Pablo is the in the final year of his contract thoguh, so assuming JB doesnt fall on his face this year he'll probably assume that role in 2009. With worse defense than Pablo. Bourgeois doesnt really excel at any position.

Joe Crede-singlehandedly killing our team stats. Danks appeared to settle down and really open up his repertoire after the 1st.

QUOTE(shipps @ Mar 18, 2008 -> 02:57 PM) Iam sorry, but all this Quentin love is exhausting.Its coming from a bunch of people that truly know very little about him.And even if you know every bit about him there is to know there is still too much love for him as if his talent is a sure bet.Stop rushing him into our lineup.The same while you guys are so quick to send any of the other guys to AAA to work on their skill sets.Please spare me. Kind of like the Quentin hate coming from a bunch of people who truly know very little about him. He has the biggest upside of ANY of the young players on the Sox roster.

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Mar 17, 2008 -> 05:32 PM) What's wrong with liking Joe Crede? What's wrong with a young player like Fields, who KW and Ozzie said was athletic, being tested at a new position? Now do I think Josh Fields should be at second? No, I don't, but that's only because we have several good players there already. I woulds rather reamin positive about our players and not be so quick to condemn. Joe Crede may not hit above the mendoza line, hes just not good. Why move a superior player to another position?

QUOTE(3E8 @ Mar 17, 2008 -> 01:47 PM) Even if you are working mainly on one pitch, which he wasn't, you should be showing good command of it. Yesterday Floyd threw almost as many balls as he did strikes. Even when he was in the zone, he was missing his spots too often and getting hit hard. I'm a big fan of Floyd but yesterday's start was frustrating for me to watch. Yet Dan Haren had almost as much trouble in the rainy 40 degree weather. Floyd was also working on his fastball and getting a rythmn. He didnt start throwing in his 2 kinds of curveballs heavily until his last inning, consequently his best.

QUOTE(Soxpranos @ Mar 16, 2008 -> 10:09 PM) Why couldn't the A's take Gavin instead of Geo? Only reason Geo doesn't make the A's team is that they don't want to start the arbitration clock just yet . Who's Geo?

QUOTE(joesaiditstrue @ Mar 16, 2008 -> 03:54 PM) is still garbage, can't throw strikes, he's always inconsistent ozzie thinks this is impressive? in before "this is only spring training" etc etc. pathetic really. He had basically the same line as Dan Haren who is one of the top arms in the MLB. Also Gavin only worked mostly on his fastball today, finally going with his full arsenal his last inning. Watch him pitch and see what he's doing instead of mistakenly making a ill-informed post like you did. He got good work in, thats all he wanted to do.

Billy blackout doesnt remember this, but at least I have proof of my state of mind. I mustve posted from my blackberry for all I know.

Ur face is coherent

ok, well im bartending right now, so thats the kicker...icv anyopne want to hit soutport, im piuring shotsa. I have the joe crede shirt on, cause hes good.

SSI is a netowrk nerd and prob makes more tand anyone because hes in DG h4s cool and also rocks hard as a poster, but sztil pron doest know hioe good mrst's p[izza is. I miss the posters of 3 years ago where theyt didmnt like timo and loved joe crede for evertone else, im buy gpratt a beer this season, if you wanjt to be there, id suggest it

Josh fields is better than jow credce, seriouslty he is Jon Garland is kiup wells, but with better hair Wweed should e legalize, but with ae limits, and also with hieoight Unuiversity of illinois may haver the gayest fajns ive ever seen, i guess whyen you never win its pretty sweet when you do The bulls should trade heinrich, hes alwasy been too white for the game, andf now hes too bad Nick Swicsher mayt get the most ass on tis team, not cayse hes the coolest, but casue hes a buckeye, and also cause hes not a nerd This site is goog and all, but it necver addresses the goodx stuff like whether people in chicago are totally reatrdede

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Mar 15, 2008 -> 07:23 PM) I want to say that I want Jason Borgious starting at 2B. I really like that kid. Masset looked real good today too. He still needs to improve his command but he has pretty darn good stuff and has a nice arsenal of pitches. Logan looked filthy. And I continue to think Joe Crede >>>> Josh Fields. I would much rather resign Crede to a 3 year deal and move Fields and some others for some stud prospects (not that I necessarily think it is possible, but it happens to be what I'd rather do). I also have no idea whether Crede would accept a 3yr 21 M deal or something along those lines. Come on Jas, Fields is 5x the hitter Crede is. And Masset is filthy, he just hasnt put it together. Oh and im wasted but Jas is crazy thinkin to keep Crede. He Gone I cant wait to watch our new core, fields, Quentin, Anderson, Swish, Ramirez, are good

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Mar 14, 2008 -> 07:43 PM) what does ozzie mean by his decision to start javy was "based on my feelings"? Because he was awesome last year and dominating his last spring outing. But I think the matchups that he has gone for makes more sense even though Count and Gavin are going ot get crushed in Detroit. We have to hope the cold hurts their bats.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Mar 14, 2008 -> 04:39 PM) So does a lot of illegal merchandise. Should we ban World of Warcraft because of Chinese gold farmers (basically people forced to play the stupid game 12 hours+ a day justt getting gold that the bosses will sell for real money to US players) Get rid of DVD players. If we don't have any players there will be no bootleg market. Of course if you are smoking your own home grown weed you completely eliminate the black market. The same thing happened during the prohibition. Al Capone along with other gangsters made bank from smuggling in alcohol. Yes, would should ban World of Warcraft, but just to eliminate nerdery........... Growing ones own weed would be awesome if it were legal.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Mar 15, 2008 -> 08:27 AM) Sweeney = Jeremy Reed v2.0 at this point, unless he can start to hit for power, whenever that is going to be. It could happen this next season, or it may not at all. He has a pretty big hole in his swing on the inside. He be an auto out until he fixes that.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Mar 14, 2008 -> 05:42 PM) count knocked around, Thornton dinged up, lineup anemic. not good, sox fans, not good. Well, eventually they arent going to hit some game, the lineup has been very productive.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Mar 14, 2008 -> 02:33 PM) is there any word on how prior is doing this spring? Circle jerking with the rest of the ex-cubs, Barret, Maddux, Rusch.....

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 14, 2008 -> 05:12 PM) OK, Gameday says that Richar is now pitching for the Sox. Tell me that's a mistake. He has a wicked curve

QUOTE(CubsSuck1 @ Mar 14, 2008 -> 03:12 PM) Victimless crime. Legalize it along with prostitution, hard drugs, gambling, ticket scalping etc. Its ridiculous how much we pay in taxes to imprison marijuana offenders. I am extremely in favor of legalized pot, but as of right now, its not a victimless crime as alot of the proceeds from sales go to terrorist groups and third world countries war mongers.

This is really easy, Bearsox doesnt like BA and doesnt think he's good. OK end argument, how about some posts of substance now.
