QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 10:25 PM) Wise is just so worthless is there really no better options(someone not on the roster) i swear ,only on the sox, u can have a scrub batting 190 something on the team

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 09:55 PM) Someone tell that idiot the sox are 4-3 versus his crap team (and to ask where was that dominance in game 163 while there at it) QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 09:55 PM) It's Matt Thornton. You either call a fastball or a slider he rarely throws and with a huge risk of a wild pitch with a runner on 3rd. Plain and simple, it should have never even been something we have to discuss. makes sense, they shouldnt have pitched to him and thats all there is to say

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 09:52 PM) catchers dont call for fastballs right down the middle.... well for calling a fastball when it was the most obvious thing in the world

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 09:27 PM) Is there a WORSE manager in baseball in terms of decision making with his pitchers than Ozzie? I mean, seriously. Think about the Cubs game where he left Liney in after giving up the 3 run homer to Lee. It's absolutely disgusting, everyone in the world walks Mauer there, no brainer decision. although i would agree that ozzie should have called the ibb, but shouldnt there be blame put on aj for calling a fastball right down the middle on a 2-0 count??(maybe it was discussed but dont feel like looking)

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 09:41 PM) Yes. this sux. that mauer ab made no sense at all....

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 06:08 PM) I will reiterate by disdain for this idea. I am not opposed to Nix being in the lineup everyday, but I feel like we’re seriously undermining his value by putting him in a less than premium defensive position. id rather have his bat in the lineup instead of ba or wises but in the dome,i dont think its a good idea to have an outfield of nix pods and dye

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 08:37 PM) He has an ERA of 8.00 in AAA. i should have done the research

what happend to freddy garcia? he was sent to extended spring training when they signed him and i havent heard anything since. so they just wanted to do him a favor and give him a job and have no intentions for him to pitch for us?

i was ecstatic when the cubs got rid of him bcuz i was tired of the media talking about him and his struggles..and to think he might come here? ugh

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 1, 2009 -> 09:05 PM) Not good. Hopefully it's nothing serious and the worst is day to day. In the meantime, we might get to see Jayson Nix at SS a bit more. I'm not going to complain. no beckham at ss?

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 1, 2009 -> 08:47 PM) Mauer hasn't established himself? i think hes talking about posey.

QUOTE (maki @ Jun 29, 2009 -> 11:53 AM) both of what you stated are the reasons you trade him. i dont know. its like if he keeps this up, it would be great to have him next year bcuz were guna need a leadoff guy. but as they have been saying, he can easily get hurt.

so jeff marquez is officially a bust?

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jun 29, 2009 -> 11:32 AM) What contending team lacks a leadoff hitter that would be willing to give up a corner OF spot for Pods? Do any contending teams lack a DH? We may not be able to move people anyway. I'm looking forward to watching a full year of baseball. Maybe just move Dotel for a prospect. with the way pods has played this year, i wouldnt want him to get traded. and hes inexpensive

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 26, 2009 -> 11:25 AM) Correct, he didn't. so where did he paly ss then? according to alexei : “I’d be extremely happy,” Ramirez said Tuesday in a conference call from Miami. “It’s my natural position, [the one] I’ve always felt the most comfortable in.” when he got named the ss. http://archives.chicagotribune.com/2008/no...e-ramirez-nov12

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 19, 2009 -> 08:48 PM) Yep, and I believe KW feels the same. It just doesn't seem like he'd ever be able to get past 5 innings without throwing 100 pitches. maybe they think hes nothing more than a reliever and they feel they can try to trade him with teams thinking hes a starter?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 19, 2009 -> 08:43 PM) So yeah, after watching 1 1/2 batters, I stand by my belief that Poreda's best possibility to help the Sox is as trade bait. He reminds me so much of Neal Cotts. so basically trade him now, that his value is at his highest?

QUOTE (klaus kinski @ Jun 11, 2009 -> 01:22 PM) Cristiano Ronaldo will be leaving Man U for Real Madrid. A record 80 million offer was accepted and deal should be finalized by end of June per Goal.com stupid real madrid time for a ronaldo madrid jersey i guess then lol

QUOTE (tommy @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 09:35 PM) Not sure but yes it is the same thumb. Day to Day for now, but Garfien said maybe a DL stint is necessary. Wow thats great

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 09:06 AM) He's just like every other manager, if you have good players you're good. If you have bad players, you haven't a clue. I really wonder how much difference managers make in wins and losses. What would the Sox record be if the greatest manager of all time and the greatest hitting coach of all time were here? Would it be any different? I think if it was it wouldn't be much. Its time to upgrade the talent. The owner will look smarter. The GM will look smarter, his manager will look smarter as will all the coaches. yup. torre, piniella,baker, everyone says how great they r. but when u dont give them talent,they have shown they cant win. i just dont like how everyone wants to blame ozzie for everything. like the other day,alexei couldnt bunt. everyone was saying ozzie was an idiot. had he bunted and the run would of scored,no one would say that. im just saying, its up to the players.

QUOTE (SI1020 @ Jun 10, 2009 -> 08:46 AM) Some of us can only hope. yup, worst sox manager of all time. hasnt done shi* in his tenure here. he has so many great players and cant win this year! ...

QUOTE (SoxFan101 @ Jun 9, 2009 -> 04:45 PM) For those who dont get the mlb.network, you can also watch live on mlb.com any direct links? or u have to pay?

he may suck and be done but hes my fave sox player ever QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 05:46 PM) KW's only plan going into the offseason was to trade Swisher and Javy V for anything he could get. Why? Because Ozzie didn't like them. (and bcuz they sucked and one had no stones whatsoever, but mainly bcuz they wantd to trim payroll)

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 8, 2009 -> 04:56 PM) I think a serious argument can be made that Ozzie deserves to be fired because of the decisions hes made this year. And honestly, at this point, I dont know if Id really be against the firing. colon,jose,miller,fields,nix,ba,wise,lilli, the list goes on-fire kw first if ur going to fire ozzie
