QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 19, 2005 -> 08:17 PM) No, no he's not. why? is he arb. eligable? the sox gave him a 1 yr, 3 1/5 mill contract.. i just think its dumb that he should get more cash every year even though his numbers remain the same.

atleast we dont have to worry about Bautista potentialy killing us at the cell

garland is a FA after this year. what happens if BMac proves himself when he is called up. i say let Jon leave. that will save us 3-5 mill. money we can use on A.J. , PK, etc. too bad we still have Contreras another yr.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Mar 18, 2005 -> 05:35 PM) Travis Hafner (though he DH's). Sexson is about where Konerko is at. Delgado, though not in the AL, is better than Konerko. David Ortiz -- a 1B/DH type, though certainly a lot more DH -- is better than PK. Teixera will be better, as will Maurneau (sp?). Derrek Lee is right around where Konerko is at, plus better defensively. These are off the top of my head (a mix of both AL and NL)... It's all about bang for your buck. Konerko is nowhere near worth $10 million, and if he asks for that, you move on and wish him well in his future. Gload + RH platoon guy @ 1 Million >>>> Konerko @ $10 Million. i said American league. 1)hafner doesnt count hes a dh 2)DLee is in the NL- plus PK was better than lee last yr. 3) delgado NL 4)Mornea you said, will be better. but he isnt yet.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Mar 18, 2005 -> 01:33 PM) I'm with Mario -- Konerko isn't worth upwards of ten million per year. And I don't buy the whole, "he's the face of the team" junk. Aaron Rowand could be that guy, and put up damn good numbers doing it. I said it last year with Ordonez, and I'll say it with Konerko -- neither are the top players at their respective positions, thus, they don't deserve a mammoth contract. how many 1st baseman in the al are better than PK? we all know he got ripped off last yr with the all star game..

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Mar 18, 2005 -> 12:11 PM) :headshake Because pauly had 1 year where he hit much better at the cell then on the road that means he can only hit at the cell?? compare his home-road numbers....u's always b**** about paulie needing to do better on the road.

dumb jon garland

Garland is terrible, we might lose this game..... :puke c'mon sox!!!!!!!!!!!

jeeze, how many hr's has joe b hit this spring?

We better keep PK. i dont think they are that stupid, to let CLee, Maggs, Jose, Pk leave in back to back yrs. Knowing the sox, they might go the cheap way and say ross is good enough to play everyday. >Bruce Levine said that Pk told the sox he would sign for a hometown discount, but his agent didnt want him to. PK actually wants to stay, unlike Maggs. the sox need to do the right thing for once in their life. i dont see paulie making delgado/sexson type money. PK is just good at hitting at the cell, thats it. KW, JR...

El Duque Vs. Angel Guzman... hopefully the sox score lots of runs vs guzman....that would make the cub fans feel a lot better about the prior/wood situation >u know the sox though, when they face a rookie, someone they never saw befor, or a lefty, they struggle. oh well! :fthecubs

wasnt freddy supposed to pitch against KC? does that mean he pitches tomarrow against the cubs? whos pitching?

trade willie, i wouldnt trust him at short, he wont ever hit enough, i rather have ozuna

i rather have PK

im worried because u cant get anywhere without a closer...plus our division is full of lefties...

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Mar 16, 2005 -> 06:54 PM) I'd rather talk about you Melissa than some stupid Cubs fans. hey, just wondering what u's thought- trying to get away from all the ST only threads

On the Murph(sp?) show on wscr the score he asked the listerners to call in and say who they thought would last longer in Chicago: Dusty, Ozzie, Scotty, Lovie. Just about everyone said Ozzie. Of course u have to have the clueless cub fans say Dusty. someone even said he would get an extension. if manuel can be here for 7 yrs and hardly win, ozzie will be here for a while. hes the face of the team. even if the sox dont win, he'll still be here. what do u's think? in 05 (coaches too not managers, i forgot:lovie, scott) oh, mostly everyone said dusty would be out the door first

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Mar 16, 2005 -> 06:37 PM) I never like to wish injuries upon someone. I'm not glad, but it doesn't make me feel any worse. i didnt say i was glad hes injured, i wish no harm torward him....im glad for the cubs.... :fthecubs Go Cards

why does everone say we should get rid of PK and have gload play? i would be pissed off if we got rid of PK. who would be the face of the team(not including Ozzie) aaron? we nned a big time bat in the middle. no one currently in our opening day lineup has driven in 100+ runs recently. PK gloads been awesome off the bench, if it aint broke, dont fix it. who would come off the bench (L) timo?

ive seen walker a couple of times, he seems good. anyone know his ST stats?

ha! im glad. :fthecubs

hawk said that ozzie said they might bring walker because hes pitched great and because of the division we play in. he can be a good situational lefty. he deserves a spot, thus far

hasnt joe struck out a million times this spring-every time ive seen him played, hes struck out. sorry, dont want him striking out, coming off the bench. trade him.

we need tad to start because hes a perfect number 2, willie would bat 9th.....KW is impressed by willies attitude? who the f*** cares about his attitude, he only has four hits! Iguchi all the way. >why would the sox want a backup I/f? ozuna, thus far, has earned the job.

look at the numbers diaz put up in the minors...that worked out well
