YASNY

There ya go. Rich Gannon. Steve Young. Remember how horrid Young was Tampa Bay?

You stole my thunder. But, this one is a classic.

No kid under the age of 16 should be throwing any pitch that causes him to put spin on the ball by twisting the arm. You can cause movement by applying more pressure with one finger than the other without snapping the ball off. Circle changes, palmballs, split fingered pitches and knucklers are ok.

Tell me what your rotator cuff feels like when you are 26. And then tell me it's not that dangerous "anymore". Have rotator cuffs changed since the 1970s?

The could think about it if they dumped Sweeney, and I think there have been rumors filtering out of KC talking about this very scenario. Good call on the Alou thing. That is probably what will happen in SF.

Texas would JUMP all over that deal. Garland's trade value is vastly underrated around here, and Crede's is somewhat. Garland would be a prize pickup for the Rangers and you wouldn't have to add much more than that, imho.

I can't see the Giants paying that kind of money. And Sosa would KNOW that he could never surpass Bonds as the figurative BMOC. So you'd have a disgruntled, egotistical, overpaid slugger in RF to go along with Mr. Sunshine in LF.

Texiera is a guy I like a lot. I'd consider moving Garland to get him and take my chances acquiring starting pitching elsewhere.

Contreras?

I have to say, Killa, that I was one of the horde. :headshake

Because Boston is in the World Series.

True. But even at that, it's a huge longshot.

Just kidnap him. We'll pay your airfare to bring him to Chicago. Land at Midway though, so he doesn't escape and end up on the north side.

I'd like to see just one link showing that the Comcast deal will increase revenues for the '05 White Sox. People keep saying this, but I haven't seen anything to indicate that this is a fact. Can anybody help out here?

Chicago was rated THE favorite city for visiting players.

I don't think King George would be that stupid.

For the record, I broached the possibility of Rock Raines joining the staff for '05 as far back as few weeks ago. Of course, I totally got shut down on it.

You have expensive tastes in hookers!

This thread and any attempt at contacting Beltran in an effort to get him on the Sox is a big waste of time.

One of three things will happen with Vizquel. 1. Sox get a good deal and sign him relatively cheaply. Reaction: There goes JR scrapping the bottom of the barrel. No one else would pay Omar to play for them. 2. He signs elsewhere. Reaction: Dam JR is too cheap to sign a 38 year old stop gap SS. 3. Sox outbid other teams. Reaction: KW overpaid for this bum.

I thought I'd get a lot of reaction from that idea. Things like "Are you crazy?" and :dips***

Are you sure this is what you REALLY wanted to say? :rolly

There is a section on intentional interference written in the "New York Yankee Employee Handbook". Reggie Jackson got away with it back in one of the late '70's Series. So ARod did exactly what was expected of him, but King George forgot to replace napkins with Benjamins on the snack tray for the umpires locker room.

You may.

It's pretty dangerous to be a crow right now as crow meat is in high demand. RedandWhite, congrats.
