QUOTE (wsgdf_2 @ Sep 1, 2009 -> 02:01 PM) Bummer - no Flowers and Pods is in CF: Podsednik cf Beckham 3b Pierzynski c Konerko 1b Dye dh Quentin lf Getz 2b Rios rf Ramirez ss This lineup is wrong, according to Reifert. His post: pods8, beckham5, aj2, pk3, jd dh, q 7, ram6, rios9, nix4. Danks pitching.

QUOTE (WCSox @ Sep 1, 2009 -> 01:46 PM) Why are people assuming that the Sox will spend $110+ million in 2010, when they purposely dumped salary last winter to get down under $100 million? The economy isn't as bad as it was last year, and Kenny is mad. That's why.

QUOTE (docsox24 @ Sep 1, 2009 -> 01:27 PM) We don't have much money to spend. Add in the arb guys which I will estimate at 4.5 for Carlos, 6 for Danks and 8 for Jenks. Thats 85. Plus Betemit 1.75, Pena 1.0, Thorton 2.25, Dye buyout 1.0, and 0.4 for Beckham, Getz, Carrasco and Nix. We are now over 92M. So I ask where is the money to spend? Everyone looks at whats coming off the books but not what is being added. At 92M (and I don't think Danks will get that much), they still have about 20M more to add. Another bullpen arm, Chone Figgins, and a RF/DH type should about do it.

Apparently Hynick had a perfect game this year in the minors.

apparently, Mysterio is crying foul: Mysterio has told wrestlers who have asked that he had a legitimate prescription for a painkiller and that the company didn't give him proper notice and time for his doctor to give them details on his prescription. He's told several that he hopes the company will reconsider his case when he has a chance to speak to management personally on Tuesday. WWE has reversed at least one Wellness violation that I can think of, but not since they began the policy of announcing violations publicly. pwinsider.com

QUOTE (son of a rude @ Aug 19, 2009 -> 12:48 AM) I'm not sure if you have listened to any of Rivers' solo albums, but they are pretty damn good. It is a compilation of his old demos. His solo albums are a lot better than the junk they are putting out now. It is sad to see what weezer has become. It's not that they sold out or anything, (although, i think it's time they say "f*** it" and just name their next album Big Mac or something) they are just not good anymore. Pinkerton and The Blue Album are amazing. They are up there with the best beatles records for me. They are flawless. Then they release garbage like this. No, this isn't a joke. That's their next album. Heard the new single over the weekend AND I LOVE IT! (I'm not a Weezer fanboy by any stretch btw) - VERY 60's British Invasion pop. I was really impressed. Haven't heard a single from them that I've liked since Green album maybe.....

Lesnar/Mir just because of the result. All honesty, Nog/Couture was great but Nog did not finish off Randy the few times he had him in a great submission. Good result tho. Great ppv - loved the knockouts.

can we merge the Peavy threads - do we need 4 of them?

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 01:30 PM) Cute Hitter? Didn't know that was a position. HAHA -- oops! short for CHOAD? I actually like Thome, so that wouldn't be it.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 26, 2009 -> 08:49 PM) The idea is to win the game, not play with a new toy. A rookie making a debut against Kansas City would be nervous. Against ARod,Jeter, Texiera, etc, in Yankee Stadium in a must win game is not how you break guys in. Maybe in the long run it won't hurt him, but it certainly is not going to help him or the White Sox. Also, it's usually in the pitcher's favor if the offense hasn't seen him before.

didnt you guy read all the posts about him and this yesterday in the other thread?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 07:09 AM) A very good 3rd OF to go with Rios and Q...preferably a left handed one. Adam Dunn?

QUOTE (G&T @ Aug 26, 2009 -> 02:41 PM) I gotta get on that twitter. it's just a website. http://twitter.com/cst_sox

Dan Hudson?

Cowley's Tweets today while watching Jake throw: Light toss so far for Peavy. Peavy done playing soft toss already. Not a good sign that he would be moving to a bullpen session. Bullpen coach Juan Nieves just sent a throat slash to the dugout - translation: Peavy is done for the day. Cooper now on his cell to tell the bad news to someone. Coop and Oz meeting now. I'm guessing that it was not the news they wanted to hear on Peavy, at least not for today.

Peavy about to throw side session according to Cowley

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Aug 25, 2009 -> 02:26 PM) Shawn Johnson The gymnast? She looks huge.

QUOTE (PeavyTime @ Aug 25, 2009 -> 12:17 PM) No, Fox has the window from 3-6. This game is scheduled for 12-3. Thought it was 1pm-6pm ET.

QUOTE (longshot7 @ Aug 25, 2009 -> 12:03 PM) Thought it was a Fox only game? No, it's on the WGN website - that's great! Must mean the Fox window is ova!!!

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 25, 2009 -> 10:18 AM) That game is carried by WGN also. I will be excited to see that. Sunday is TBS Sunday game of the Week also Thought it was a Fox only game?

Klaus, who is that?

QUOTE (thedoctor @ Aug 24, 2009 -> 08:03 PM) peavy on saturday night against ny would be awesome. wgn game. wife away with girlfriends for a weekend. unchecked drinking. someone make it happen. Sat's game is a day game. 1:05 ET, which means the rest of us won't see it. If he starts then, then 5 days later is the Cubs game, which is a problem.
