dare i mention that gavin floyd has a 2.50 ERA in AAA......just making an observation

im not sure this lineup can score 3 runs

Casey Weathers is a guy projected to go right near our pick in the draft. I'm not sure I'd like to spend the first pick on a closer, but this guy has the stuff the contribute late in major league games right now. Even though hes not the type of pitcher the sox have targeted in recent drafts, hes exactly the guy they targeted this offseason. Upper 90s heat, nasty slider. He was originally an OF, then was converted to a starter, and is now a reliever and learned how to harness his gas. I liken him to Aardsma with a better fastball

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 23, 2007 -> 09:47 PM) I wonder if Ozzie looked at roster and thought: MacDougal against a hitter that was never good enough to start vs Sox or Thornton vs a hitter thats not good enough to start for the royals

haha i kind of feel bad for riske though....coming on in short relief for the royals has to be the worst job in baseball and he still sucks at it

QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Apr 19, 2007 -> 07:22 PM) That guy's locked in right now. josh hamilton now has 5

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 17, 2007 -> 03:44 PM) f***!!!! He was playing well. Any details on the injury? Why arent we calling someone else up? Sweeney, Terrero? I guess Erstad in LF and leading off now? im actually kind of glad we have another arm int he pen, especially the way ozzie has been quicker to yank the starters this year....and plus with teh fact that we have mack anderson and cintron who can basically fill in anywhere on the field between the three of them and havent really gotten any ABs yet

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 17, 2007 -> 03:40 PM) Like I said, a real LF. QUOTE(SoxPride56 @ Apr 17, 2007 -> 03:40 PM) I think he said a real LF, meaning someone that can hit the ball... haha i thought the sarcasm was caked on enough...i guess i shoulda used green on another note....im a big fan of mack in left...at least instead of pods....

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 17, 2007 -> 03:38 PM) He can't stay healthy. It's really unfortunate we didn't get a real LF this offseason. ummmm....erstad?????

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 02:15 PM) Yeah b****!!!! This is huge news for all residents of Chicago!!!! this is certainly exciting, but settle down people, this just means chicago will bei nthe running instead of LA....they are still competing internationally with other cities...we didnt get it yet

jennings is a righty

bad move by wedge....id way rather face borowski here than betancourt...

QUOTE(shoota @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:14 PM) So if Anderson were in CF, the score would still be 2-0 instead of 4-0, because the ball Erstad couldn't reach would have been the third out of the inning if BA were playing. you forgot the 4 HR he woulda hit too....prolly woulda been like 6-2

green will be a good pro....they never call the travel there either

i feel like dye should never not be playing...unless he needs a day off or something, but he should be fine this early in the year

so guadin walked 42 and struck out 36 last year.....you can definately tell oakland has shifted away from some of its stats taht they used in the early 2000s.....this guy only gave up 3 bombs in 63 innings last year so we might have to do it with small ball tonight

pods looks at the best pitch hell see all AB

cintron has to have one of the longest swings for a bench riding middle infielder ever

im just throwing this out there....hows about gustavo molina to pinch hit here

Aardsma painting corners

*not missing neal cotts*

aardsma starts him out with 4 straight breaking balls and then blows one by michaels...nice...now throw a GB

wow was crede lookin for the breaking ball or what

crede starting to look alot like eric byrnes
